The Last Embrace Chapter 391

Sunday afternoon.
After having lunch with her mother, Jessy sauntered back to her room. She will teleport now to the forest to grant Jagger's request.
Jessy tied her hair in a ponytail and grabbed her black jacket from the closet.
She's ready to go!
She initiated the teleportation process in her mind...
A minute later, she landed inside the treehouse.
There was no one inside the treehouse. But she noticed that the household stuff she bought for Jagger had disappeared from their place! In the corner, she spotted a big bundle...what is that?...she took a peek, she found the missing items inside. Was Jagger attempting to bring all this stuff to his brother's place?
Well...kinda...looks like it!
She found it amusing. But she can't blame him, the stuff she bought for him might have carved a deep meaning to his heart. Although she doesn't give much attention to Jagger's silly obsession with her...she knows that if somebody like someone so bad anything that their crush had given to them they will treasure it.
Anyways, she needs to find Jagger quickly so that they can start traveling early, she needs to return to the Facility and resume blood transfusion in the clinic.
She hurriedly flew out of the window to find him.
She went to the stream...
She hovered up and down between the dense towering trees to find Jagger.
At last! She found him up in one of the coconut trees, climbing like a monkey!
She smiled a little. What this guy is up to?
Don't tell me we will bring coconut fruit to his brother's place? Did this guy have forgotten that they're going to travel today?
She saw several coconut fruits in the ground, about five of them.
She was about to play a prank on Jagger but decided against it on the last minute fearing that she might startle him and he will fall hard into the ground and broke his ribs or spine. An accident is one thing she doesn't want to happen today. Jessy lowered herself into the ground and shouted at him. "Hey Jagger...I'm here...come down!" she said.

Jagger looked down at Jessy. "Alright, I'm coming down!" he said enthusiastically, just having the opportunity to be able to glance at her pretty face, it already made his day.
He finally landed on the ground.
"I'd been looking for you all over the place...why you suddenly climb a coconut tree in the middle of nowhere?" she wants to know the reason why he pulled this weird stunt when they were about to start their journey.
Jagger scrutinized her face. "A-are you angry, Jess?" he asked. "I'm sorry, I have no more food to eat..." his fingers pointed at the five pieces of coconut fruit scattered in the ground. "They will become my lunch for today," he explained, a tiny smirk appeared on his lips.
Jessy smiled a bit. "Fine. I'm not angry. You can start eating your lunch now," she said and levitated up in the air. "I will wait for you in the treehouse so that we can finally start our journey to your brother's place," she zoomed... heading back towards the location of the treehouse.
Jagger sighed a bit. He sat on the ground and used the machete to break open the coconut tree so that he can start eating his lunch.
While eating the great tasting young coconut meat and drinking its refreshing juice, his mouth breaks into a smile.
Time to see his older brother again!
He is very much looking forward to seeing a familiar face again which is very dear to his heart. With Jessy and his older brother, Roden, by his side, he will be a complete man.
A few minutes later, he finished eating his lunch.
He picked up the machete and began peeling the husk of the coconut fruit, he will give it to Jessy, he's confident that she will love the refreshing sugary taste of the coconut water. He stared at the fruit for nearly five minutes while his mouth was moving strangely... as if he was chanting a magic spell.

Done.
Holding the coconut fruits in his right hand and the machete on his left hand, Jagger began the trek back to the treehouse sporting a happy look on his face.
Fifteen minutes later.
Jagger was already climbing the rope ladder with the coconut fruit in his right hand. He finally arrived at the top of the ladder and placed the fruit on the floor.
Jessy looked at the coconut fruit.
"I brought this fruit for you, have a taste! I'm sure you like it," Jagger said. He placed the coconut fruit within her reach. "Ah, wait...I will get the machete in the ground...we will make a little hole on the shell so that you can drink the refreshing water properly," he said and hurriedly went down the rope ladder to retrieve the machete from the ground.
Jessy waited patiently for Jagger to come back in the treehouse, she was already imagining herself drinking the refreshing coconut water...
Jagger finally returned and immediately made a hole on the shell of the coconut tree, just enough water to passed through. "Jess, you can use the glass if you want to..." he offered.
Jessy shook her head. "Nah, it's okay...no need. I will drink the water straight from the shell itself," she replied and lifted the coconut shell to her mouth and began drinking the refreshing water. She loves the taste of the water so much that she finished drinking all the liquid inside in just a few minutes. "Wow! The water of the coconut is so tasty, I love it!" she commented animatedly.
Jagger smiled upon seeing her reaction. "You should eat the young meat as well....it's super delicious!" he said. With just one blow in the center, he struck the coconut shell with the machete, resulting in the shell splitting into halves. He immediately took out the spoon from the bundle and handed it to Jessy.
"Thank you..." Jessy began scraping the young coconut meat using the spoon and brought it to her mouth, wow, the meat so tender! and its moist and luscious texture heavenly melted in her mouth. She can swear to herself that she already got a new favorite fruit.
"Jess, you want more?" Jagger asked after noticing that there was no more meat left in the shell. "I will go down and bring you the last coconut fruit I left in the ground," he said and quickly went down on the rope ladder.
A moment later.
Jagger returned to the treehouse bringing another coconut fruit.
He found Jessy lying on the floor, unconscious, her chest was still breathing.
Success!
Jagger grinned from ear to ear.
He chanted a foreign spell with his palm open...suddenly... a bottle landed magically on his palm out of nowhere, he opened the lid without stopping his chanting and placed the bottle's mouth in front of the sleeping Jessy.
Jessy's body dissolved into a cloud of white smoke and slowly drifted inside the bottle. After all the white smoke has settled inside the bottle...Jagger closed the lid immediately...a black smoke appeared from Jagger's right hand and using the black smoke he sealed the lid tightly...his chanting finally ended.
Jagger stared at Jessy's form inside the bottle still sleeping peacefully.
"You are finally mine! Don't worry my love, you will wake up from your deep slumber three days, later." Jagger murmured and grabbed the bundle from the corner and initiated the teleportation process in his mind.

Essentia Animus
Second Book of the Soul - Celesi Veil Trilogy When the living essence of three girls are put at risk, giving room for a second essence within themselves, even their hyper developed fantasy world might not be enough to contain their new found ambitions. Another story of another world, these three girls must adapt to their new essence, all while each is left to question if they are truly still even alive. While this story is a sequel of the previous story in the trillogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place in a distant corner of a Celese returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, the events of the story are a spoiler for the previous book, in case that matters to anyone. This story takes place over two centuries after the events of Vitae Memorandum, when Celese had developed into an advanced world, improved to a point that it is much like modern-day Earth while still using the gift instead of technology. The Aethyx languages are still present in this book, and even English still exists in the world after the events of the previous book, but are much less of a focus after the same closing events of the previous book. What is instead important is how the ending events of the previous book had resulted in the start of the Instrumentation Era, and exactly how the gift translates in a modern-day sense. While this book is still effectively a fantasy world of its own kind of magic, it isn’t the classical medieval scene that would be typical for such a story. The laws of science still do not exist in Celese, but that didn’t stop it from developing into something that looks similar enough. Earth itself still remains present on the other side of the veil, and its previous exposure continues to shape and advance Celese into the world it has become. This story contains scenes exibiting mania and similar dark themes, as it goes to great length to explore concepts of life and death. While the degree of such themes should not be considered to be as serious compared to matters such as actual horror, the psychological depth is still siginifcant enough to be potentially concerning for people sensitive to matters of this nature, such as any individuals with concerns questioning matters of suicide, mental harm, or a variety of emotional injuries. While none of these subjects actually occur in the story, readers who are currently troubled by such matters may find themselves considering old wounds if they are especially capable of empathy while reading, which could lead to furthered emotional or mental stress. Readers with a high capacity for empathy may find themselves troubled by concerns regarding any potential lack of mental/emotional control as well as considerations regarding the meaning of death. Readers who appreciate subtle dark themes in a story may instead find this to be an interesting twist of the same idea.
