Chapter 424 Sweet Time

After the fire was done, Eliza pulled me along into the house with her, but she didn't say anything the entire way. By the time we went to her room, I was a bit leery, but then we didn't stop there as she took me over to Morgana's room and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The two of us entered, and the beautiful woman put down the book that she was reading and folded the corner of a page before placing it on a stack that was on her nightstand. Morgana looked at me with her crystal blue eyes and smiled warmly as Eliza ran over to jump on the bed.

"It is good to see you again, Galio. I appreciate you coming to see me," Morgana said, and I smiled back as I came over to sit beside her on the bed.

"You are looking good, but it doesn't look like you have been out of your bed much," I said, and Morgana shrugged.

"I make trips to the library, and I go for meals, but I have been standing for five centuries, and I really enjoy reading," Morgana said, but Eliza frowned.

"I go get you books, and the girls bring you food! You haven't left the room since you came here!" Eliza declared, and the Lich Queen flinched and then slowly looked up at me.

"Sorry. I just really haven't felt up to leaving the room yet. I know the girls are alright with me, but I am worried about everyone else. A lot of people died because of me," Morgana said, and I wrapped her in a hug.

"Take your time, and tomorrow we can go for a walk if you want. There is no rush, and your worries are reasonable, but Eliza and I will make sure that no one bothers you. The important thing is that it is all over, and everyone now knows that it wasn't your fault," I said, and Morgana hugged me back.

"Okay! So! A little bird told me that a certain Angel was about to have an Alien, but I don't know what that is! Breya told me to come to ask you since she didn't know what it was either. I saw the egg, and it looked like a tiny monster with cat ears and wings! Did you guys make a monster? Is it going to stay small? What do you think its name will be?" Eliza started to rattle off like a machine gun, making me grin, and Morgana frowned.

"I would also like to know about this. I want one if I can; even if it is monstrous, I will love it with every fiber of my being!" Morgana said, and I laughed before explaining to them both about the egg and what we would be doing with it.

"So that thing inside of the Golden Egg will turn into a person like me? What is the point in that?" Eliza asked, and I smiled.

"Well, they make a lot of noise when they are small, but they are pretty cute. If you and I have one, it will be half of me, and you. Then it gets put together into a mini-person. I am pretty sure that when Breya's egg hatches, you aren't going to leave her side," I explained, and Eliza's eyes went big.

"When it hatches? Is it already alive?" she asked, and I nodded.

"Yes, inside that egg is a baby Alien, so we just have to wait until it breaks out of its shell, and then we will get to see what kind of personality the little one has," I said before getting up and pulling Eliza to her feet.

We said our goodbyes to Morgana before leaving, and I gave her a hug and kiss, but then I froze and slowly turned to Eliza.

"What is it!?" Eliza asked with a worried expression.

"I forgot about my date with Goldy! Gah! This is twice now!" I groaned, and Eliza shook her head.

"You had better get going. You are lucky that the time of day doesn't matter on the Dwarf island since everyone lives underground," Eliza said with a sigh, and I kissed her.

"I am sorry, love. I promised Goldy, but I will come to bed tomorrow night, okay?" I asked, and Eliza just grinned, looking over at Morgana.

"That's fine. I am just going to sleep with Morgana again, then!" Eliza giggled and then kissed me before squirming out of my arms and running over to hop back into bed with Morgana, but the Lich Queen stopped her.

"You have been working in the garden, so you are not getting in the bed dirty! I think I could use a bath anyways, so the two of us can share one," Morgana said, and I frowned.

"I thought that you slept with Chili?" I asked, but Eliza shook her head.

"She is too hot and doesn't stay still at night, and we wake each other up! Morgana is really cold, and she never wakes up! She sleeps like the dead!" Eliza laughed but then gave me a smug smirk. "Are you sure you don't want to stay and join us for a bath?"

"Don't be so mean! You know I would, but I promised Goldy I would spend time with her," I said, but this time a portal opened up beside me with a small woman dressed in gold staring at me with crossed arms. "Looks like this is my cue to go! Have a good night, and try not to have too much fun without me!"

"You have been taking your sweet time!" Goldy complained, but she didn't seem that serious about it as the portal closed. "I know you are busy, but standing a girl up twice is a bit of an insult, you know?"

"I am sorry. So many things have been going on lately, and I feel like my head is about to spin-off, but I got one thing taken care of, mostly," I said with a sigh as I looked around the room that was filled with gold.
