Eros pulled me to him. “That is great. Now close your eyes and keep trying. Focus on that feeling”

I nodded excitedly and closed my eyes again. I tried to sense it again, my mind searching for that tug I had felt in the back of my stomach as if something was pulling at me.

But there was nothing.

I focused hard, but again I felt emptiness.

Feeling nervous, my eyes flew open, and I blurted out worriedly,

“It–it is gone. I can’t feel anything. I can’t

“Shh,” Eros responded, placing a finger on my lips to silence me. The gesture was so intimate that I shook involuntarily. He didn’t seem to notice it.

“It will come to you. Believe in it. Believe in yourself. Keep trying. I am right here” Eros said in a soothing voice, and I let myself calm down. I missed this side of Eros,

I closed my eyes as my fingers held onto him tightly and tried searching for that pull. I had begun praying to the moon goddess again. I had definitely not imagined it.

“Please, please, let it happen” My mind was chanting and suddenly out of nowhere I felt a bolt of current pass through me.

It seemed to emerge from the base of my stomach and travel up, shooting straight towards my spine and traveling upwards.

“Ahh” I winced and grabbed onto Eros’s hand ughtly. The next few moments were something I would never forget. Pain, blinding, tore through me. It was as if a beast that had been in a deep slumber was awakening from its slumber, shaking the cave it had been resting in for so long.

“Ahh,” I cried again and felt my knees wobble. My entire body was shaking and I couldn’t find the strength to keep standing

I crashed to the ground, and felt a much larger thud resound beside me. Despite the pain, I noticed a pair of hands were still holding me tightly, not letting me go. But the pain was too intense to let me focus on anything else.

I threw my head back and my eyes flew open as I stared at the moon. It appeared blurry at first, as if it was enveloped by a hazy cloud, but then it swam into focus.

hardly got a moment to breathe when another bolt of pain shot up my spine.

My eyes watered, and at some point, I let go of the hands holding me. “Nooo”
