Chapter 732 Queen Selene's Hidden Romance

?After a few moments, Queen Selene's body melted into Orion's embrace. "I always feel as though my worries are taken away whenever I am in your arms," she said, sighing deeply as she shifted her eyes upwards to look at Orion again.

Her breathing began to grow heavy, and she leaned in once more. Instead of kissing Orion on his cheeks this time around, she pressed her soft lips against Orion's own. As their lips intertwined, ensuring they shared a deep, wet kiss, Queen Selene suddenly pulled her head backwards, breaking off the kiss.

Queen Selene looked at Orion with her hazy eyes. "Please, can you keep this a secret from Crystalia, at least for now?" Queen Selene asked.

Orion nodded in understanding. "Don't worry. I keep this a secret until we are ready to reveal it to Crystalia," he responded.

He understood Queen Selene's mindset and agreed that this was the best decision they could make at the moment. Slowly revealing their relationship to Crystalia seemed wiser than doing so abruptly when they were still uncertain of the repercussions.

Queen Selene smiled brightly, leaning in to kiss Orion again before pulling back. "Thank you," she responded.

Orion shook his head. "You do not need to thank me," he replied.

Just as Queen Selene was about to speak again, a knock abruptly resounded from the door.

"Are you two done discussing in there?" Crystalia's voice sounded from outside the door.

Orion stood before the second large reinforced crystal and wooden door that sealed off Garden from the outside and stepped into its serene confines. When he entered, he made his way towards the Princess of the Garden's regular area.

"I knew you would come on time," the Princess of the Garden greeted with a warm smile; she understood just how much this meeting meant to Orion, so she had already expected him to be here on time.

"Come, they are awaiting your arrival," she added, turning around and leading the way forward.

Orion nodded and followed behind her, walking deep into the Garden. After about twenty minutes of walking, they finally reached their destination.

Once they arrived, Orion couldn't help but inhale deeply, taking in the scene before him. Stretching out in front of him were hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Pixies occupying the grassy plain and perched on the branches of tall trees. Some even floated in the air, filling every inch of their surroundings. Orion could discern the sea of Pixies with his sharp eyesight, allowing him to see both the young and old, leading him to believe that he was looking at all of the Guardians of the Garden.

"It's just as you thought. Since this is the first time they've welcomed an outsider besides me in several thousand years, each of them has chosen to gather here to witness the process firsthand," the Princess of the Garden explained, noticing Orion's contemplative expression.

"Process?" Orion said with a raised brow, unable to fully understand what the Princess of the Garden was talking about.

The Princess of the Garden nodded in response, "Yes. Since you are going to be meeting with the Guardians of the Garden, you'll need to be on the level where you can communicate with them," she responded, her eyes fixed on Orion's figure as she scrutinized him from head to toe.

Nonetheless, she noticed Orion's pondering expression before it suddenly turned into astonishment, as if he had just grasped her meaning. "Don't tell me that you were expecting to meet them like this?" she asked, raising her brows.

Orion nodded with a tired sigh escaping him, prompting a light chuckle to escape the Princess of the Garden's lips.

However, just as she was about to respond, the Guardians of the Garden, who had been still in their positions, suddenly began to move.

They both fixed their gaze forward and watched the unfolding scene.
