Selestra, not wanting to forget about Lariel, begged Avilena to move her to Ornalion.
"Are you bored in Azaren?"
"Something like that. I want to live next to my son. Lariel never return me Virens."
"So you can have another baby."
"The child from him is very dear to me."
"Oh, poor thing!" Avelina sympathized. "Do you love only one man? But I can't stop. I like a lot of guys. They are all gorgeous!"
"How do you have enough emotional strength for everyone?"
"That's my temperament. I love them when there are several at once."
"Even so?" Selestra widened her eyes.
"Do you really think your beloved didn't participate in orgies? Many times! Actually, I don't know what you expect from him? Find other lovers! Lariel will not court you with his popularity."
"Still... help me get settled in Ornalion."
Lariel really paid little attention to her, and this was understandable: everyone around him adored him, everyone wanted something from him, and he had many different concerns about the kingdom.
At first, Selestra spent a lot of time with her lover's son and children, playing and walking them in the garden, but then she got tired of it and decided to communicate more with the residents of the city, walking along the cobbled streets.
She noticed how many winged kids of both genders with lilac eyes appeared in the city, running around, slightly similar to Ekiloren. Still, the mixture with blackwinged gave his offspring a restrained beauty.
One day, in a city square, she saw a white-winged syrinx, who discovered her and rushed to get to know her.
"Adivaris!" - He extended his palm to her, smiling sincerely.
She said her name, shaking his hand in return.
"I haven't seen you before," he looked at the tall, graceful girl with adoration. - "Who is your husband?"
"I don't have a permanent partner..."
"Such beauty and alone?" Adivaris was genuinely surprised.- "Unrequited love?"
"You can say that," Selestra said, embarrassed.
He seemed to her to be a very pleasant man.
"And I moved here with Xantari, I work with Avilena. At first, Rohen brought me here to be treated for soul wounds..."
"Do Xantarians have such wounds? I've never heard anything like that,"- she laughed.
Selestra was captivated by his complacency and poise, and he did not try to charm her at all.
"I know Ramies and Palien, they are masters of leaving emotional wounds in women's hearts."
Adivaris's face changed.
"And how closely do you know them?"
"They deceived me, dragged me onto a spaceship and submit me to hypnosis. Then I gave birth to a boy from Ramies. It still hurts that they did this to me. So what did you treat your heart for? Didn't some princess really care about your feelings?"
Adivaris answered reluctantly, bowing his head guiltily:
"Rohen and Avilena took away my mortal girl from me because she didn't want to live with me. I did a bad thing to captivate her, but it's all from loneliness."
"Ow! Have you kidnapped women?"
"Yes, but now Avilena and I are freeing them from captivity on Xantari. I so hope to atone for my sins."
"It's amazing that you honestly admitted that you're not deceiving or being cunning," - Selestra was amazed.
"I wasn't going to tell," Adivaris said, embarrassed. "It just happened that way. So are you visiting someone here?"
"I live in a small house, I come to the palace to look after my son."
"Oh, so it was with Lariel that you had a relationship?"
"Yes, but I can't forget him."
"Have you had another men? Why is Lariel so special for you?" - The Xantarian
asked with a serious look.
"Embarassing questions, however! We barely know each other."
"Sorry, but in our society asking this way is the norm! Avilena and I are lovers, and she also adores Lariel, but she doesn't want to tell why. I thought you'd share what his secret is."
"Does she have four lovers? Isn't it too much?" Selestra exclaimed.
Adivaris laughed reservedly.
"There could be more with such a status. She has enough energy for a whole harem. But our princesses of Xantari are tired of men. It is rare for anyone to have two permanent partners. They don't tolerate us, but they want love, that's why there is such a situation with the kidnapping of girls."
