Her laughter sounded like the tinkle of tiny bells as she flew to greet me. “Oh, Ellie! It’s been ages! How have you been?”
She landed gracefully on my shoulder, her touch as light as a feather.
I could feel the warmth of her body through my clothes.
I chuckled. “You make it sound like we’ve been apart for years! But I’m glad to see you too, Nova.”
She winked, her eyes shimmering like dew-covered leaves under the morning sun. “In prison, every day feels like an eternity. But come, let’s walk and talk.”
Nova’s Champion lover trailed behind us, his footsteps heavy and thudding.
He seemed disinterested in our conversation but kept a watchful eye on his companion.
The corridor was abuzz with sounds — shouts, jeers, laughter — but it all faded away as Nova and I became engrossed in our conversation.
She regaled me with tales of her time in the Prize Pool and the Champion she’d been with.
The walls of the prison seemed to recede, replaced by her vivid descriptions of passionate nights and heart-racing moments.
As Nova narrated, her face showed a mix of emotions — excitement, glee, but also a hint of wistfulness. “The passion, Ellie, is undeniable,” she sighed, “but there’s nothing like love, like intimacy.”
I remembered my nights with Ceara, the tenderness and love that went beyond physical passion. “I think I know what you mean, Nova. Passion can be fleeting, but love… love has depth.”
Nova looked at me with twinkling eyes, “Oh? Sounds like someone’s had quite the journey since we last met.”
I blushed, the warmth spreading across my cheeks. “I’ve fallen in love, Nova. With Ceara.”
“Ceara?” Nova asked. “I don’t think I’ve heard of that Champion.”
I shook my head. “That’s because he’s not a Champion. In fact, I’m not sure if he’s really a prisoner at all—”
Nova’s Champion lover might not have an ear for what we were discussing but my armed guard certainly did.
He cleared his throat; a warning for me to end this line of gossip immediately.
I decided to stick to the romance part of the story as I was sure that was what Nova was interested in anyway. “It’s not just about attraction anymore; it’s much more profound than that.”
Nova clapped her tiny hands in joy. “Oh, Ellie, that’s wonderful! True love in a place like this is a rarity. Cherish it.”
The Prize Pool loomed ahead, a vibrant, bustling place.
The sounds of laughter, the heady mix of perfumes, and the sight of females presenting themselves to their Champions — it was a sensory overload.
The air was thick with anticipation and pheromones, creating an intoxicating cocktail that made my head spin.
Nova turned to me as we stood at the entrance. “Would you like to join us inside?”
I paused, glancing at the entrance and thinking of Ceara waiting for me. “Thank you, Nova. But I think I’ll pass. I need to get back to Ceara.”
She nodded. “I understand. Take care, Ellie. And remember, in this place, love is your greatest weapon.”
I smiled, touched by her words. “Thank you, Nova. Stay safe.”
As I made my way back to my cell, the sounds of the Prize Pool faded behind me.
But Nova’s words echoed in my mind, strengthening my resolve to find a way out of this place — with Ceara by my side.
