Meanwhile on the snowy top of Mount Everest...

— That was incredible. - Ava whispers hiding her face against Adam's muscular pectoral.

The Prince of the Dark court strokes the golden hair of the girl in his arms, separating one of her whitish streaks from the rest of her hair and tangling the tips of his fingers in it.

— The incredible thing is the place you chose for our wedding. It's cold as hell in here.

—I'll hide in the bowels of an active volcano for the next eclipse.- the girl whispers against his skin.

—What! What are you talking about Ava? We just got married, what are you saying about the upcoming eclipse? -Adam looks at her grimly.

The girl moves away from the warm body of the boy with whom she has just celebrated her nuptials, searches for her clothes in the snow and begins to dress.

— Avacé, answer me! What nonsense are you saying about the eclipse?

— Amadam, you know very well that what has just happened between us occurred against my will and therefore I refuse to respect the laws that bind us and the ties we have been forced to create with each other.
—Against your will, huh? It didn’t seem like it. Ten minutes ago you moaned with pleasure in my arms, little light.

The girl turns and looks at him impassively.

— I already said it, it was incredible, I admit it.

—Unbelievable.-the young man snorts, jumping to his feet. -you knew very well that this was going to happen, we both knew very well that this was going to happen. Our energies oppose and attract each other. If we had both been girls our energies would cancel and we would have been allies, if we had been boys we would have been enemies, but since we are of opposite sexes...

— We are doomed to be lovers, I know. My parents have explained it to me thousands of times.

The boy comes up to her completely naked, takes his wife's delicate face in his hands and kisses her.

— Our existence demands balance, Avacé, we are the last of our race.

The blonde girl breaks contact with the young man's lips and warm fingers.
—I understand it, but that doesn't change anything. I hate you, you know it. I will come to you every eclipse but don't expect more from me.

The young man looks at her puzzled. He gathers her in his arms and looks into her bright golden eyes.

—You're can’t be serious, little light. I am your husband!
— So what?
— So what? That we are Adam and Eve, we are Hades and Persephone, we are Romero and Juliet, we are... the sun and the moon, day and night... we are the eternal lovers, Ava. You say you hate me but I'm the only one who can avoid that your energy is overloaded, you need me and I...- kisses the girl's neck slowly. - I am happy with our union, I am attracted to you like a moth to a flame.

— Moths that get too close to the flameflam, Amadam. Light and darkness cannot coexist in peace, one of them will always prevail. Except during eclipses, it is the only time light and dark kiss without danger of consuming each other.

—Are you afraid for my well-being, little light?

— No. I fear for mine. That's why I beg you to leave me alone, let's have a marriage in name only. You go your way and I go by mine.

— And we meet only during eclipses, right?

—Exactly.

—What if I refuse, Avacé? What if I demand that you be by my side, that you live with me? What if I appeal to our elders to force you to stay in my abode?
— You won’t do it. You like freedom too much, you like human girls too much,you are addicted to euphoria. I know you, Prince of the Dark Court, I know you too well.

Adam, frees the girl and walks barefoot on the white snow, findIng his clothes and starting to dress.

— Agreed. We'll play by your rules, but I'm warning you, I'll cheat. I am not willing to wait for the next eclipse to make love to my wife.

— Adam!

— What? It's the truth, even if you don't like it, Ava. I'll do all that’s necessary, even cheating, I'm warning you.

The girl sighs and shakes her head.
— Goodbye, Adam. — She wispers and disappears.

The young man growls. He takes his boots in his hands and places his leather vest over his shoulder.
You can hide little light, but I will find you. Darkness always follows light.
