The Strong Bond novel Chapter 100

"It's a ritual of some sort" Lena corrects rolling her eyes, but smiled at her cousins' smart remark.

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever! So, when is it again?"

"Tomorrow night" Lena answers trying to hide her nervousness.

"Are you nervous at all?" Lena asks Damian staying close to him, as they make their way to where everyone was.

"Of course, it's just-" He goes answers.

"Well you're not showing it. I feel like a wreck, and this is all not going to end well" Lena rushes out, making Damian chuckle.

"Red, I know. I can feel your emotions, and trust me I'm worried too. I just had more time to practice how to control my emotions. I don't need you worrying more if you can feel my stress as well. In all honesty, deep down I think everything will be alright" He tells her trustfully.

"Really?" she asks stopping to look into his eyes.

"Really" he responds smiling. He cups her face before placing his lips to hers, feeling her worries melt away some.

"Okay, lets do this then" she whispers after they break the kiss.

"That's my girl" He says pulling her in his arms, making their way over to the fire.

It was starting to get dark out and it was a clear night, so the moon so very visible and bright. Lena stay by Damian side while they watch the sisters prepare for the ritual. She noticed there weren't a lot of people here, just a few top guards, her Nana, parents, and close family. Everyone seem to be doing something but her and Damian.

"Should we see if they need us to do anything?" Lena whispers up to Damian.

"No, we are good. They already informed everyone what they needed to do and what to expect" He tells her. Lena couldn't help feel useless just standing their watching everyone else do stuff. This was because of her, so she felt like she should be doing a lot more then stand there like she was some damsel in distress.

"You guys ready?" Rainea asks them. Lena couldn't speak, so she just looks up to Damian. He intertwines their fingers and gave her a reassuring smile.

"Yes, where would you like us" He asks.
