The meaning behind the pentagram mark

Liam didn't really know how to react to such provocative behavior so he said to Alec: "Don't mind them there are always like that."

Anaya laughed and then she said: "Sorry, we're sorry Alec, well if you trust him my love, I think we can continue where I cut you off.

Alec, to finish the introductions, Celia is my soulmate and the Union has been consumed already, and as you have seen we have already mixed our energies, we also share the same mark."

Anaya lowered her top just a little so he could see the golden pentagram, then pushed it back into place.

Alec was shocked: "Wait! It can't be right, Anaya, Celia, your mark is the pentagram?"

The girls nodded surprise by his reaction, even Liam couldn't understand why he was reacting like that so he asked him: "Is there something wrong with the mark being a pentagram?"

Alec had sat down next to Liam and had taken his hand again intertwining their fingers, he looked at the three of them, then came back to Liam: "Liam, can you not be aware? The mark of the pentagram has appeared only once, a million years ago, it was the mark of the most powerful soulmates that ever existed.

I'm talking about the only legendary mage who reached the seventh grade of the silver color, Clara, and Anna was the last known golden dragon."

Liam was flabbergasted: "I didn't know! But it all makes sense now, it explains why the girls progress so quickly and have abilities that no one else has, even their names are similar."

Suddenly he put his hand on Alec's cheek and asked him worriedly: "Alec, are you sure you want to know more? You can still refuse, we can still just remain simple customers, you don't have to put your life in danger, I will protect them."

Alec turned his head and kissed his hand, he said: "And who is going to protect you, you idiot?"

Liam was pouting, being called an idiot by his supposed boyfriend was not a pleasant feeling.

Celia couldn't help it she really needed to say her thought out loud: "Wow! That was too cute. My baby wife I understand now why Liam is always saying to us to wait till we get into our room."

Anaya couldn't help laughing, her wife could really be a plague when she wanted to.

Alec said again to convince Liam: "The girls gave me their trust, but if you don't want me to come tell me frankly. No matter what you are going to tell me, I think I will be more useful than a burden for you."

Alec added in a whisper: "And I want to stay with you."

Liam reacted a little too harshly to this confession, maybe because he had just been called an idiot, he wanted to punish him a little bit, he grabbed the collar of Alec's shirt and pulled it towards him, crushing his lips with his, he forced the barrier of his lips and took possession of his mouth, after having played to his heart content he released him.

Celia exclaimed: "Too cool! I feel like I'm watching a drama, all I need is the popcorn.

Anaya didn't comment but smiled, and Liam finally calm down and asked Celia: "What's a drama?"

Celia replied: "A television show."

Alec immediately asked: "A tele… what? And what is popcorn?"

Celia sounded a little sad: "Ah right, I forgot that you can't know about it, just forget that okay, and let's get back to the most important thing.

Alec, Liam is just worried about your safety, and we might both be young, but we know that even if you are willing it will be very dangerous to be with us, especially with Anaya's birthmark, I guess we should also never show our mark.

Even if Liam didn't know the origin of the pentagram, others like you could make the connection and it would put us in danger."

Liam added: "Celia is right, don't get me wrong I'm glad to have you by my side, I mean our side, and not just because you're the CEO of the magic herbs group shop. The fact that I can count on someone like you with your level to help me to protect my girls is really reassuring."

Alec looked at him and seemed satisfied with this explanation, he then asked the girls: "Your bond seems really strong, can I know how you met?"

Celia smiled: "Funny, Liam asked us exactly the same question when we had just met him, sweetie can you do it?"

Anaya nodded to her and then began to briefly explained the situation to Alec, Celia's death, how she died, the fact that her eyes had remained the same, the different skills Celia could use, the dimension ... everthing.

She tried not to forget anything important, and when she finished her summary she looked at Celia and Liam and asked them: "Do you want to add a few things?"

Celia simply said: "I think that will be fine for the moment. Alec, even if you have access to our dimension like Liam has, you will still remain the CEO of the magic herbs group shop, we should talk a little about business, you don't think?"

Liam was really impressed with Alec, he had handled the information he had just learned rather well: "Alec, I think you will agree to become the exclusive distributor of Celia's magic pills. The price that the manager of your shop gave us is perfect for us.

I know you have shops in all the big cities, and since we are planning to travel a lot, it would be nice if we had a place to sell them."

Alec who was still trying to digest all the information about the girls he had just received, was a little distracted, but he replied all the same: "It the same proposal I wanted to make to you, I had prepared some cards before we met in case you accept this partnership.

These cards will allow you to be recognized in all the shops in my group, I will personally send specific instructions for the remuneration of Celia's magic pills."

Alec was hesitant to ask, but he finally said: "You said you were going to travel a lot, what do you plan to do?"

Liam replied hoping Alec would really follow them: "I am going to take them to the Isle of Death, and then I will have them participate in the annual All-Talents Competition, in Eclipse city, and then we will return to the Northern Academy. Are you okay with that, can you come with us?"

Alec was all smiles, he took the initiative to kiss him on the lips, a light kiss almost shy, and said to him: "I was planning to take a break from work and sharing more responsability with my managers, I trained competent people already who can replace me, and just like you I intended to go to the Isle of Death, so that's pretty good, don't you think?"

Liam was in heaven: "You really decided to take a break at work, and you've trained people already, that means you're free to come with us, wow I wasn't expecting that, I m so glad babe!"

Liam was really excited now: "We still need you for something else. Celia give him the list of magic herbs you are missing."

Alec took the green jade disc Celia gave him and looked inside: "Is that a list of magic herbs you need, that's not a huge list but some are really rare?"

Celia looked at Liam and said: "Maybe it would be easier to show him directly, and Alec, I'm sure you can delegate this task right, plus nothing is really urgent as I'm still at level two for the moment."

Anaya looked at Celia thoughtfully: "My love, why do I have the feeling that you want to stay at level two for a bit? You can't be blocking your passage to level three on purpose right, can you?"

Celia gave an embarrassed laugh: "Sweetie, don't be angry okay. And of course you can intentionally block your leveling up. To level up to level three I would just have to focus on my spiritual point and absorb some spiritual energy, ten minutes would be enough. But I still want to do some tests, I'm in no rush right now."

Alec looked at Liam in disbelief and asked: "They really started training a week ago? How is that possible? I mean, even for a legendary mage, going from level one to level three takes a minimum of six months, so how could ten minutes be enough to get to level three.

And Anaya is about to level up to level three as well, even though she's the golden dragon that's... It's completely mind-boggling!"

Liam replied sympathetically: "Alec, baby, you're not at the end of your surprises. So can you help us find these magic herbs?"

Alec smirked: "Of course, I'll help you out and as Celia said, I'll delegate this task, I have people who are specialized in this kind of research."

Celia exclaimed: "Great, you're so cool Alec!"

Then she added, looking at Anaya: "Sweetie, we should take this opportunity to show Alec our dimension, so that he can better understand the need for these magic herbs."

Anaya agreed and they both stood up and held out their hands to Alec and Liam, once the circle was closed, Anaya teleported them into the mage training ground of the dimension.
