244 Know My Secrets

Lyon stared dumbfoundedly at the woman who leaped at him without any hesitation. Her eyes were closed as the warmth of her lips ran through his. The purple hair glistered against the full moon and the night sky as he held her gently. He could feel every goosebump on her rose and her heartbeat fasten.

The wonderful emotions coagulated in her heart as every fiber of her body wanted to embrace the young man more and more because she knew, she was not the only one who demanded his love. In a blink of an eye. he might be gone, in a blink of an eye, she might be left off. However, for this very moment, she believed that he was here within reach of her arms.

(Since when I wonder) thought Luna as her memories surfaced in her mind.

His body was wrapped full of bandage, like a mummy or sort.

(At first, I thought that you are nothing but a jester sent from heaven then after seeing the result of your test, I saw you as a tool).

Placing him under the contract which he happily signed without knowing. Her heart doubted if her plan would ever work. Yet, it did, and it was beyond her expectation. Not only so, but he also brought back something impossible no matter how many times she wished it. Her mother.

(Whenever I'm nervous, you were there, whenever I'm in fear, you were there, even the last time, you saved all of us, even the kiss we shared that time).

She let go of her kiss before resting her head on top of his bare chest.

"Listen, Lyon."

Her soft voice made his heart melt as he replied with silence.

"Before anyone else come and ruins this moment, I want you to know that."

Her eyes gently look at the young man's eyes before saying with the brightest smile she could ever give to someone.

"I still love you and will always love you. Wherever you go, I will follow you, wherever you are I will find you, I might be weak now, but this feeling is even bigger than my cultivation levels."

"Besides,"

Luna suddenly leaned in on his right ear, "I asked my mother about what you are doing back in the bathroom when you comfort me."

Lyon's mouth instantly went agape the moment she finished her sentence. What rollercoaster of emotion did he just felt.

"I uh, I can explain!"

(Goddamnit, where is everyone else? Oh, those people are hiding behind the walls? I can sense Ryona, Jugen, and the rest but where is Karina? Oh right, I forgot she is an anti-mana cultivator now. But wait a minute! Both Jugen and Ryona are not moving! What happened? It doesn't seem to be something attacking them either).

Behind the walls, Karina pinned down Ryona and closed her mouth with her arms, while simultaneously pinned down Jugen's neck by her legs.

"Y-y-. Both of you need to give them privacy! Don't just ruin their moment!"

"Hehe, I just messing with you," muttered Luna.

Lyon could only smile wryly. He had been beaten by this girl, no, woman.

She let her head rest once again against his chest, "I hope, you can hold it in, you know, since, you are already poking me... down there."

Her face blushed beyond the hue of a tomato, yet knowing so, she still didn't move away from him.

Lyon blushed his face away as he thought (Yeah, I won't do it with all these people eavesdropping either, though, well, that is debatable but you are making this really hard, like, solid).

He suddenly made a fake cough, before he carried her higher and higher. Penetrating the thick clouds before stopping. No matter which directions he saw there was nothing but a fake land made out of clouds.

"Luna, if you really love me that much, then you have to know, my secrets, at least what I know about it."

Luna slightly opened her eyes with a tinge of a smile on her face. Her heart turned calm yet happy at the same time. The amount of trust, she received from him showered her mind with emotions she loved to keep.

"Apparently, I once lived here a long time ago. though I don't know how long it was. I know it sounds unbelievable but by the miracles after miracles that I make, it's not impossible, I guess."

Luna listened carefully at his every word, along with his heartbeat that her ears were close to.

"However, there is one thing that you should know. Luna, I'm already married."

She opened her eyes wide as her heart sunk.
