I want to see if she's okay, I want to apologise for the turmoil I put her through.
I stand at the exit of the Conway dimension, the handcuffs on me. Nora comes to see my farewell, I look different. More muscle actually, I kept winning and even though I fought special treatment, I was forced into it. I lived in luxury, fed the finest food and wine but I never enjoyed it. That only took a week until I was back in the dungeon cellars.
To stay sane, I did my work outs and I kept in shape.
Nora approaches, her hand grazes my arm and down. I look at her, "Still no..." She steps up and eyes me, "What a waste Lochlan. Have a good life with this wife of yours."
She walks off and I am finally released of the cuffs, then pushed through a type of portal. I land in the middle of nowhere. Definitely the human world, I disappear to anywhere else. Hawaii, I always go to Hawaii. I see the ocean and I kneel before it, looking at it's beauty. I am so exhausted and I fall asleep.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I wake up in a big comfy bed, it's grand and spacious. Their is a cloth on my head, my body is still covered in the blood of my victims I had to kill. I was allowed to shower once a week if I was lucky. I sit up, wondering where the hell I am and then I see "Caius...?" he walks into the room and bows to me. "My Liege..." I tell him to stand, impatient already with that bullshit.
I go to stand but stumble, Caius helps back into the bed and insists I stay put. "Where is she?" is all I can say, looking at him. He doesn't answer me about that, instead he asks how am I feeling, what happened to me?
I pull Caius to me by the cuff, he forces me off with his magic just as quick. I look at him, "Where is my wife?"
Caius sits near me and tells me how Cora dealt with my death, she is still dealing with it while she is with another man. I look at Caius, "She thinks I died, I am happy she did that..."
Caius admits it is that young man, Aaron.
Okay, now I am a little mad. Really, Aaron? Could be anyone else.
I fucking hate Aaron.
I trash the hotel, I gather that is where we are. I scream out of frustration. Caius stops me and I push him away, "What do you want from me? To have some emotional breakdown? I killed the lamp in this room....I should have went straight to my dimension. I can't see her now."
"My Liege, is it true...you went to the Conway dimension? The rumors about that place" He says, I look at him "Those rumors are true, you think all of this is my blood?"
"I can't see her...,is she happy?" I look at him, Caius shakes his head no. "I had to fake my death, she would have blown up every dimension looking for me, causing more wars and problems. I suspect she's been safe this whole time? Her family too..no one is looking for her now?"
Caius agrees to that.
Caius explains thst Aaron knows about the gods and all the worlds. I roll my eyes thinking that's great.
"You need to see her, my....Lochlan" Caius ends, as I looked at him to stop calling me liege.
"She will want to be with me, I can't be with her." I say simply, Caius asks why. I look at him, "Because if I see Aaron, I am going to kill him in the most violent way that I can come up with and that will be a strain on our rekindled romance."

I realize after not long, after I have my shower. The hot water was orgasmic to say the least, so was this bacon I downed this morning. I must have had 5 plates of it. I am in New York, Cora is here again I am told. She is a nurse again. The reason I must see her again, Niamh. I want to see my daughter.
I see Cora, she is out for a run when I step in front of her, her face is different, it's thinner but she's just as beautiful. I look at her, "Cora..."
