Beautiful, god, your lips were holy But you were always lonely, still So much pain, it wasn't graceful Life can be distasteful towards you

Forever Bound

Summary: Two years after the events of Enlighten My Darkness, Meliodas and Elizabeth still face the consequences for their choices, as well as the ghost of their greatest adversary. A fanfic to celebrate Enlighten My Darkness by BettyBest2.

To celebrate Enlighten My Darkness I wrote this oneshot about what I imagine could be happening after the end of the original fic. I usually don’t advertise my fics here, but since this is in honor of my very talented friend I have made an exception.

Please, go and leave @bettybest2 a review or a message after reading this and with what you thought about her amazing fic. I only hope that she enjoys this as much as I enjoyed writing it. 

Special thanks to @baconwaffle2016 for reading through and giving feedback. She also wrote her own fanfic around EMD, please read it and leave her love!

Below is a preview of my story. You can check out the full fic on FFnet or on AO3!

"That was close," he laughs, and Elizabeth strokes the back of his neck as their smiling gazes meet… but then another cry, stronger and louder this time, causes them both to deflate.

"I'll get it," he mutters, and Elizabeth climbs off of his lap with a sigh. She straightens her clothing as she scoots up the bed and leans back on the pillows. The sound of Meliodas walking through the house is drowned out by a sustained wail; but a moment later the crying lessons in intensity, and she smiles to herself.

Two minutes later he returns with a bundle in his arms. His expression is half annoyance and half worry as he walks around the bed to where she waits, her arms raised up. "Not sure what it is," he sighs as he bends over her.

"I think it's the teeth," Elizabeth replies softly, and then smiles down at the whimpering baby deposited into her arms. The little girl with green eyes and dark hair instantly snuggles against her chest, and she hoists her daughter up so her head is against her shoulder. Elizabeth rubs a hand soothingly along her back and kisses her temple, and then feels the faint warmth as her healing powers extend through the embrace.

Immediately the baby settles, one hand curling around the strap of her slip. Elizabeth hums a little bit as she pats the baby's back. She is just a bit over a year old, and wistfully the goddess thinks about when little Isobel was first born and fit so nicely in her arms. Now the girl is grown enough to cover her lap.

Meliodas pulls the blanket up as he climbs into the bed, stretching out next to them. "Maybe one day we won't be interrupted," he sighs, eyeing her.

"It will come soon enough," Elizabeth answers. She smiles at the demon next to her, and slides down the mattress. Rolling over to face him, she lays Isobel between them, laughing when the girl turns away from her to snuggle against her father. Meliodas huffs a bit as Isobel lays her head on his chest, but he wraps an arm around the girl and pulls her closer, planting a kiss on the top of her head.

Elizabeth snuggles into her pillow, watching. It is a scene that she still could not believe sometimes, a scene that was still dangerous despite their positions and powers. They are the king and queen of their clans, the leaders of the two most powerful races in Britannia. Their people now experience an uneasy peace between them because of the union of their rulers, but many are not content with that. Both had to handle dissent from within their realms over the past year, and the peace grew even more complicated with the birth of their daughter.

But now all that feels very far away as she watches Meliodas and Isobel lay together in the quiet darkness.

Tears are worthless and useless. They solve nothing. Yet, they soothe the pain like nothing else, or at least they used to. They are nothing but a constant reminder how deep I've drowned, that even now, the water still pours out from inside. How I wish I could cry like before. Back when I wasn't a coward, when I wasn't scared of what people would think of me. But no longer do my tears fall for soothing. They fall only to remind me how my chains are a strong as the day they bound me.

read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/MLkUlRB by subzeroflame1216 In a world where the gods wield unfathomable power, Alpha Castiel finds himself ensnared in a relentless curse that spans the ages. Jumped through time decade by decade, he is destined to reunite with his Omega, Dean, for just 24 fleeting hours before they are torn apart once more. But there's a cruel twist to their fateful encounters – Dean doesn't retain any memories of their time together, nor does he remember Castiel. Each reunion is a bittersweet echo of love lost, leaving Castiel to bear the weight of their shared history alone. Driven by an unyielding determination to break the curse and restore Dean's memory permanently, Castiel embarks on a desperate quest through time. With each cycle, he searches for clues, battles against the whims of the gods, and fights to kindle the flame of recognition in Dean's eyes. Yet, as the centuries pass and the cycle repeats, doubts begin to gnaw at Castiel's resolve. Is their love truly strong enough to defy the will of the divine? Or is he condemned to an eternity of chasing after his beloved, forever just beyond his grasp? In a race against time and fate, Castiel and Dean must confront the ultimate question: can love conquer all, even the whims of the gods themselves?

Tidbit #1… Scrambling around naked on the center of endless frozen lake would equate nicely with the panic that flared up at a stomach ache last night. Yes, I am stupid.

Tidbit #2… My first novel, Forever Bound, is now back in print! Click here for proof that I am currently not delusional.

Tidbit #3… I have been asked to write a full-fledged sequel to Forever Bound. So, I’m hoping there’s reason for my readers to revisit John and Aaron.

Tidbit #4… I feel an endless frozen lake coming on.

Until tomorrow or Wednesday (travel day still up in the air)…
