Chapter 538 Chintana

It was pretty surprising to see so many creatures mixed in with the people, but I had yet to visit this place. It was also not the first time in memory witnessing something like this, but it was in this world.

"I must say, this place is quite remarkable," I said, looking around in awe. "It's unlike anything I've seen before."

Titania smiled and nodded her head. "Yes, it's the magical city of Chintana. It's home to many Fae creatures, beasts, and a few other races. They coexist peacefully here, and everyone loves it." She looked around fondly at the bustling street, her eyes lighting up with joy as she took in the sights.

"It's a beautiful sight, isn't it? I'm glad we can be here together to experience it," I said, and Titania nodded in agreement.

"Me too. I think it's a lovely way to start off our date," she said, giving me a smile that made my heart swell as she took my hand. "Now, since I am the one that is taking you on a date, I have already made reservations for us at my favorite place to eat," Titania said

"Oh, sounds great," I replied with a smile. "Lead the way."

Titania nodded and started to lead me through the busy streets of Chintana, pointing out various places and shops we passed along the way. We talked and laughed as we walked, and Titania's enthusiasm for her home city was contagious.

We eventually reached our destination, and my jaw dropped when I saw where we were going. It was an enormous manor made of marble with intricate carvings all over it. The entrance was large enough to fit several carriages, and a small fountain in front seemed to be made of solid gold.

"Wow, this place looks amazing!" I said, unable to contain my excitement.

"It certainly does," Titania said with a nod of approval. "This is the famous O'Hara Manor, and inside you'll find some of the best cuisines that Chintana has to offer. I thought it would be a nice treat to come here for dinner tonight."

I grinned in anticipation and followed her inside. We were quickly taken to a private dining room, which was just as beautiful as the outside. The walls were lined with unique tapestries and paintings, and the furniture was made of the finest wood and fabrics. The food served was exquisite, and I could see why Titania had chosen such a place for our date.

After dinner, she took me on a house tour, showing me each room. I was amazed at the beauty and grandeur of it all, and by the time we left, I felt like I had a better understanding of Titania and the world she had created in this city.

As we stepped outside once more, I looked around in awe.

"This place is incredible," I said, and Titania nodded in agreement.

"Yes, it is, isn't it? I'm glad you enjoyed it. After all, it's my home," she said, grabbing my hand. "Now, you seem to have something on your mind, yes?"

I smiled and then let out a sigh. I had been trying to figure out how to bring up looking for gifts the entire night, but it was weird to ask on a date.

"Yeah, that I do. I have been trying to think about how to bring it up, but I might as well just spit it out," I said, and Titania laughed at me.

"Oh? You mean about getting gifts for the High Elf Elders?" She asked, and I groaned and rolled my eyes.

"Oh, you women love to torture me, don't you?" I said, and Titania patted my shoulder with her free hand.

"I have little to no sympathy for you, but Tallia did say something was going on that's bothering you about Cancer. My memories only recently came back, but from what I remember and what Tallia told me, you are right to be concerned. We all know that you can be easily distracted, and each of us always wished for more time, but using someone like Lexi is not right. She said she seemed like another person to you, but maybe that is the case. You, of all people besides Scorpio, know her the best, so you might consider talking to your friend about her?" Titania explained as we started to walk again, and I nodded.

"That is a much more reasonable idea than me trying to talk to her. I honestly am a bit worried about having her around the others because I don't think that Cancer sees what she is doing as wrong. If that is the case, then I am worried that she will try to use another one of the girls like she did with Lexi," I said, and then Titania stopped and turned to me.

"If this is really how you feel, then we should go now," Titania said, and I frowned.

"Go where?" I asked.

"To secure her until you know what is wrong with her. I have never known you to be concerned about something that is not extremely concerning in the eyes of others. If you think that she could cause trouble, you should not even be considering the action to take since you already know it," Titania said firmly, and I nodded.

"You are right, and I think that I have been trying to reason with this because it is Cancer, but I should have been treating her like I would have the rest of the Zodiacs," I said, and then motioned for a portal to my living room, but it was only Lexi, Karine, Eliza, and the four winds.

"Did you bore her already?" Eliza asked, but then frowned at me as I looked around the room.

"Where did Cancer go?" I asked, stepping through the portal but stopping when Titania's hand was pulled out of mine.

I turned back to see her frozen with everything else in the Mortal Realm, and I slapped my face as I jumped back through. Titania unfroze but was confused to find me beside her. "Sorry, you have to go through first," I said, pushing her through the portal.
