Chapter 245 - The Miraculous Truth

The heavy downpour of rain had long ceased. The sky had turned a brooding gray and orange with the sun setting in the horizon.

Under the shade of the tower and heavily branched trees stood SnowFlake and ThunderGirl, both the horses neighing and grunting in cold.

Inside the tavern with the broken door hanging open by a rusty hinge Sera and Lucifer were immersed in passion. The chilly wind blew past their scorching bodies.

With her arms around Lucifer's neck Sera was pulling him into her petite body, almost trying to mold him into her as they kissed fervently.

Lucifer's hand was wrapped around her tiny waist while the other was holding her nape as he angled her face to gain better access of her mouth.

The pair moved dragging their feet in a slow dance as they kissed.

Sera was pushed against the dilapidated pillar inside the tavern, her damp back against the cold concrete while Lucifer ran his heated fingers along her sides.

His fingers occasionally rubbing her exposed shoulders, he'd pull back to kiss her neglected neck and shoulders in between to let her catch breath.

"Sera.. I love you!"

Nearly a million times or more Lucifer's mouth tirelessly kept chanting in between their kisses.

His tongue rolling 'I love you' incessantly as he thrust it into her honey mouth hungrily. Her knees going weak from his ferocious attacks.

She would moan in satisfaction against his mouth every time he'd profess his love in a daze.

Accepting his moist tongue and playing it with her own, sucking, flicking, driving him crazy.

Sera had learnt a trick or two after being kissed numerous times by this handsomely gorgeous devil of a man in her arms.

From the time they have met, the fatal attraction between them has proliferated into a massive mountain and is still growing every second.

Lucifer couldn't keep his hands off Sera since their first encounter, the same thing goes for her as well. She is addicted to his touch, his scent, his body heat and warmth.

Not only their hearts are fated even their bodies are fated to each other's love and care. It's the miraculous truth.

*honk* *honk*

A loud honking sound and blinding white lights from a car's headlight shone in the dark catching the pair's attention.

They broke free from each other's embrace albeit reluctantly.

Lucifer shielded Sera with his body, her appearance right now was inappropriate for any outsider to look at. He turned to look at the person intruding on their quality time.

Her face was flushed from their activity, also she looked a mess from all the crying and her eyes were red and puffy. Even her lips were bruised and swollen red.

It wasn't a perfect picture to present to anyone aside from Lucifer.

She held his arms on either side to support herself and peeked out from behind his back like a scaredy little mouse.

"Young master, the rain has stopped. We were searching for you all this while in rain and finally found you here.."

A bodyguard with a sturdy build alighted from the car and stood by the broken door with respect. His tone polite as he explained himself.

"The car is ready for you to board.. We will bring back both the horses after you"

Lucifer was about to speak when the man beat him to it, his hand gesturing to the car parked outside. Lucifer nodded his head in approval.

Wordlessly the nameless bodyguard turned around and strolled towards the two horses.

Another man followed after him, he was the stable master's underling in charge of ThunderGirl and the only one who could control the stubborn mare.

It was a daunting mystery as to how ThunderGirl let the stranger, Sera to touch and even ride her.

"Let's go back.. It's quite late and the rain has stopped now. You must be starving after all the rigorous activities!"

His low magnetic voice entered her ears albeit a little husky, she looked at him with her clear eyes. He winked playfully after his last statement.

Immediately her face turned beat red utterly embarrassed by his pert words. She let out an awkward cough before nodding her head meekly.

Regaled by her shy reaction he chuckled lightly earning a not-so-kind pinch on his flat tummy. He grimaced in pain. She laughed in return with a cheeky smile on her lips.

"I meant horseback riding!"

Lucifer hurriedly clarified when Sera walked past him. He felt desolate, lifting his feet he hastily went to her side and opened the door for her to enter.

She looked at him in surprise before a subtle smile crept up her lips. It was tender.

There was a driver in the front waiting for them, Lucifer sat beside Sera after she settled herself snugly inside the car. His arms wrapped around her cold shoulders.

She was shivering after coming out of his hold, the heater was turned on adjusting to a comfortable temperature.

The car sped away along the roadway with the two bodyguards following behind them horseback.

Ethan's office

After a whole day of work, work and work, the handsome and striking CEO of Lee Holdings Ethan Lee was seen exiting the private elevators.

Assistant Chen was shockingly nowhere in sight. Ethan trudged alone towards the private underground carpark.

With a weary look on his face, his eyes bloodshot yet dark enough to attract the plastic females, he boarded his car and revved up the engine.

It's been raining cats and dogs in the main city since afternoon unlike the countryside, it was freezing cold.

Thankfully he had no outdoor meetings to day and spent most of his time indoors with a warm cup of coffee.

His fatigue visible on his face as he drove away with a blank expression. His gaze that of disinterest.

"Huh? What is she doing here?"

Ethan's eyes twitched, he looked at the opposite side of the road with sheer astonishment.

Drenched in rain with her dress clinging to her body stood a shuddering Xia Ruo Lan under a closed cafe's shade. Long black wet hair stuck to her face, her hands clutching the hem of her skirt tightly. Her teeth could be seen chattering in the dim light.

This was the first time Ethan was seeing Xia Ruo Lan after that dreadful night. He was confounded with no words to express his feelings.

"Xia Ruo Lan!!"

Ethan took a u turn to reach her side and halted his car in front of the cafe. He shouted after rolling down the window and waved at the dazed Xia Ruo Lan.

"Ethan?"

Jolting out of shock, she stared at the man with a neat appearance with wide eyes. Shock evident on her washed out, wet face.

"Get inside!!"

He bellowed once again loud enough for her to hear in the noisy downpour of rainfall.

Lightning struck in the dark sky and she jumped, scared out of her wits. Without wasting a second she ambled to his car and hastily sat inside.

"Why are you here? At this hour, in rain..?"

Offering a clean towel for her to clean herself Ethan queried to satisfy his curious mind.

His eyes darting to her sensual appearance with large blotches of wetness on her outfit tickling one's fantasy.

"My car broke down.. And I left my cellphone at my office! My assistant is still on a paid leave visiting her parents.. Ah~ It's frustrating!!"

"The worst working day ever.."

Xia Ruo Lan recalled all her problems triggered by his one question, she couldn't help but whine feeling agonized by her workload.

Not realizing the place or person she's with Xia Ruo Lan grumbled gritting her chattering teeth.

"Oh!"

Not able to find words of comfort Ethan mumbled a indifferent monosyllable and trained his gaze back to the road.

All of a sudden his face felt unreasonably hot.
