Chapter 171 - Time Traveler

Raine, along with Aire and Tyrone, had a great time dipping their toes in the clear water of the falls. They played a few games in the water and enjoyed the wonders of nature together as a family. 

"She's having fun," Raine whispered as she watched Aire playing with Tyrone. The girl was clinging onto her father's back as they waded into a deeper part of the natural pool. 

"Daddy, swim there," Aire requested, and Tyrone followed. Their laughter and giggles were like music to Raine's ears.

He would definitely make a good father. Raine sat a few meters away from them, staying behind in the shallower parts of the plunge pool. Her eyes locked on to her future daughter, one of her hands she unconsciously hovered over her belly. She just had her period, so it would be impossible for her to be pregnant at that moment.

"Will I really conceive Aire?' she wondered in a daze. It was still a mystery to her how things would end up unfolding beautifully despite the myriad of complications surrounding their situation.

Soon enough, Tyrone left Aire to play at the rocks, a small stream coming from the waterfalls playfully cascading over the girl as she swam towards Raine's direction.

"Come here…" he whispered, pulling her to the middle of the pool. With a wry smile, Raine let him hug her from behind as they both watched Aire from a distance.

"This place is really nice. It must be nice to own a private island like this," she murmured.

"We can buy one and live on that island with our family," Tyrone playfully suggested, to which Raine only chuckled. Of course, she could just buy one somewhere in the middle of nowhere. But even then, it would be only a matter of time before her father would eventually track down her location.

"What's wrong?" Tyrone whispered in her ear when he sensed her distressed sighs.

"Nothing…" Raine deflected. She then turned around and wrapped her arms around his neck, giving him a passionate kiss as she whispered, "We should go back now."

Tyrone chuckled and hugged her tightly in his arms, burying his face on the crook of Raine's neck. If Aire wasn't with them, he would've probably already taken Raine for quite a generous number of rounds.

"Stop with those naughty thoughts of yours. The water here is so clean and pure. It would be a shame if we tainted it," Raine teased, feeling his growing erection poking at her under the water.

Tyrone laughed, "Maybe we can come back later. Only the two of us, filling the pool with our love."

Raine hit him on the chest as she gently pushed him away, "Go get Aire. It's time to leave…"

Looking up at the dimming sky, Tyrone could only agree with her assessment. After all, it was better for them to go down the mountain while the sun was still up. As such, he turned around and swam towards Aire's direction.

After everything was said and done, they soon all came down the mountain. Using the car the management provided to Raine, they had a stopover at a nearby meat shop so that Tyrone could buy a lot of meat for Aire.

Seeing the copious amounts of food being bought, the little girl pouted as she complained, "How come you only prepare so much meat for me during our parting, Daddy?! It's like you're giving me a farewell party!"

Tyrone laughed and explained, "We're not sure if we'll have a blue moon tonight. I've heard that some predictions could be wrong. There could be some mistakes in the calculations. So in case that there's no blue moon tonight, I'll prepare a feast for you, Sweetie!"

Raine only smiled and chuckled at the playful banter between father and daughter. With bags of meat in their hands, they went back inside the car and headed straight back to the apartment. Raine was glad that Aire was having a great time in her last moments with them in this era. It was nice to have such wonderful and memorable memories at her age, and it was good that Aire could keep these memories intact. The same could be said for Tyrone as well.

Upon arrival at the apartment, Aire shifted back to her wolf form before going out of the car. Once inside the apartment, she went back into her human form and had a quick shower with her mother. 

Lovingly, Raine wiped her daughter dry and dressed her well. After a while, Aire began to feel sleepy as Raine brushed her hair. They were sitting on the side of the bed, with the girl practically sitting on her mother's lap

"How about you take a nap, Sweetie? It's still early anyway," Raine sweetly suggested, Aire sleepily nodding at her mother's words.

"Stay with me, Mommy," Aire sluggishly murmured. 

Readily acquiescing to her request, Raine gently stroked Aire's hair, patiently waiting for the girl to fall asleep before kissing the little girl in the forehead once she was deeply asleep. Carefully and quietly, she eventually left her room. After which, she walked straight to the kitchen to grab a bottle of wine.

"Hmm, a bit early to drink, don't you think?" Tyrone commented. He had just finished taking a shower and had wandered into the kitchen to drink some water only to see Raine with a bottle of wine in her hands.

Sitting on a chair by the kitchen counter, Raine simply shrugged as she popped the bottle open, "I felt like drinking just a bit."

Tyrone grabbed two glasses and sat beside her. Grabbing the bottle from Raine, he murmured, "Let me." He then poured wine into the two glasses.

"Did you check if we'll have a blue moon tonight? I hope there's an error and Aire stays more with us," Raine murmured as she took a glass into her hands. She would love to spend more time with Aire and create a lot of fun memories Aire could cherish with her.

"I did… But there could be some discrepancies in the prediction, so I'm not sure either if it would be tonight," Tyrone admitted. "I can honestly just send back Aire earlier, but she wanted to stay here for a bit longer, using up the remaining time allotted for her naturally." 

He took a small sip from his glass as he continued, "The Voyager's Watch is a bit complicated. We can only use its power during the full moon. Then, we can time travel and stay in that time period for as long as we want, except for when a blue moon appears. At that point, the time traveler won't have any other choice but to disappear and return to their original time." Tyrone glanced at his phone. "There's supposed to be a blue moon for this month, so Aire has no choice but to return. She would be pulled back to her time as soon as it appeared." 

"It's just sad that I won't remember anything about Aire. Isn't it a bit unfair that you're the only one who would remember everything about her after," Raine mumbled out a complaint. 

Tyrone thought the same. It would be sad that he was the only one who could remember everything. Besides, he was yet to meet the person Aire told him. That person was already waiting for him to retrieve the Voyager's Watch in this era since that person believed that he was the only bearer of the mark who deserved to protect the Voyager's Watch from others that would intend to use it in a wrong manner.

He had a lot of questions regarding the voyager's watch that he would rather not ask Aire and compromise her situation more for the possible ordeal with details she could utter that might cause any alteration in the future.

One of the main questions was, would Raine only forget all about Aire, or that also included all events with Aire in it? Like the camping they just had while with Aire? He wanted to know if that memory would remain in her or it would be wiped out since it involved Aire in the picture? Tyrone was feeling anxious about it because he did not want it erased in Raine's memory, especially the wonderful lovemaking they had last night and their moments at the waterfalls.

The only person who could give him more information about the Voyager's Watch was the one protecting the Voyager's Watch right now and Tyrone planned to meet him soon just that he still had a lot of things to handle as soon as they got back to country V.

Tyrone sighed before taking yet another sip of wine from his glass. He then held Raine's hand and gave her a sweet smile as he boldly and teasingly said, "Don't worry. You'll be seeing her soon. If the calculations are right, you'll conceive  Aire at around some time this year.. Let's just work harder to make it happen on schedule."
