RECOMMEND SONG: Bridges By Aisha Badru ~🖤

No words were needed to share between them. Her willingful embrace was everything that he needed and craved after all this chaos. The moment, she sweard on her words that she would go back to accompany him in the Moonshine, that feeling was divine. Aaron inhaled her unique fragrance slowly and dipped his head inside her neck with relief as if he had finally brought back to reality from the depth of hell. Caressing through the long strands of her hairs, he murmured with a sweet smile playing on his lips,

" Let's go back to home, Serena."

Esme laughed with tears rolling down through her cheeks and nodded her head in agreement repeatedly. Her voice came out a little cracky combined with a bundle of happiness,

" Let's go home, husband."

Before she could complete her words properly, her body was lifted up in the air suddenly. Startled, she let out a surprised cry then brust into a laughter. Aaron continued whirling her in the air and screamed like a cheerful child,

" I am taking back my wife home..Yesss!!!!! "

Carol, Viviana and Jasper smiled at their foolish lord from afar silently. Who could imagine that a powerful Vampire like him would turn out so fool one day! Perhaps it was the power of love which could change anything. The breeze passed through their bodies happily. Those pinkish petals fell upon their bodies as if they were celebrating their reunion too.

Meanwhile, a certain someone had been dragged into the busy world of humans forcibly. Lucky it was midnight and no one could be seen in the streets of Crystal City. It was Athena who had changed her attire into a teenager. Accompanied by a very chasty Ethan, she was getting insane in each moment.

" Careful or you may fall, darling. Let me piggy back you upstairs.", Ethan offered with a concern flooding across his expression. Athena who was going to climb up a tree rolled her eyes back angrily. She shot the man down a foolish glare and growled back freaking angrily,

" Will you stop being so hypocrite for a moment? I am not any weak human, okay? Climbing trees is a regular habit for me."

Okay! Whatever wife says are true!

Ethan admitted defeat silently and ran his eyes around sharply. This little villa was quiet dark at that moment which helped them to cover their trespassing pretty well. He didn't know whether it was her hormones or just wishes. This preggy woman suddenly asked for an audicious request. She wanted to meet that puppy which they left in human world on the very first days of their meeting. Though he kept denying, at the end he had to give up in front of her crocodile tears.

Ethan followed her afterwards silently and found an opened door on second floor. Ethan shielded her back considerably and stalked inside the dog room cautiously.

After locking the door from inside, Ethan pointed at the dog sleeping at a corner slowly,

" There he is. He has turned a big boy now."

Athena's eyes followed his direction and soon found a middle aged dog snarling at a corner. Her mind suddenly went back to those memories when she discovered this dog in a rainy day.

Times actually pass away faster than a blink of eye. Tiptoeing nearer him, Athena crunched down slightly and fondled his head lovingly,

" Hey,big boy. You have turned so big."

The dog didn't wake up from its slumber sleep. Actually it was Ethan who casted sleeping spell on him. He didn't want them to get discovered at this time. If the dog found them here now, it would have barked at them surely. He was so small when they first found him. Ethan watched his woman conversing with a sleepy dog continuously and shook his head helplessly.

Tapping on her shoulder, he reminded in a low voice,

" We have to return before morning,honey. Let's go now. He is doing well here and his master adores him too."

Athena hummed with an emotional smile and got up from his side. As they both intended to get outside, the sky over crystal city suddenly roared with a thunderous light.

Ethan frowned gloomily at the sudden change of weather but the woman beside him had become happy. Athena looked outside and chirped excitedly,

" It's raining, Ethan. Sure, it's worth coming back here. Sigh..I miss my days in human world. Let's stalk around the roads inside rain. It will be fun."

Ethan refused coldly,

" No, you are pregnant for god's sake. Athena, we are going back to Dalastia."

Athena pouted and faked a downcast expression. She nudged on his slender arms childishly and pleaded desperatly,

" No..no.. What will happen to me with you having around? We might never come back here, baby. Please..Let's rememorize our old days for once, Please..I won't ask for anything.."

Athena blinked flattering her lashes innocently and kept staring at Ethan's poker face. Ethan who was going to refuse her proposal met her unhappy expression again. He hesitated and again gave up. With a mischievous grin, he replied to Athena,

" I can permit you that but I have one condition."

Athena was confused,

" Umm.. what is it? "

Ethan bombarded with a devilish smile,

" Then you will be on top next time."

Athena's face flushed before turning grim. Sure, men will always be men. She grinded her teeth together and accepted hatefully,

" Deal! "

Then she pulled him out of the house and urged anxiously,

" Let's let's get out or we will miss the rain."

Heavy rainfall whipped through the airs of Crystal City. Thunderbolts striked occasionally through the dark skies and illuminated the crumpled streets down on earth from time to time.

During this rough weather even an animal couldn't be founded nearby, two people had seen roaming around the streets randomly. One was busy in jumping here and there whilst the other guarded her from back strictly.

Athena exclaimed excitedly each time when the soaking wind blew through her body heavily. Her giggles echoed in air making Ethan's heart contended in joy unknowingly. It was the first time that he had seen her so happy.

He smiled at her running back through the rains and followed her closely. Athena played with the muddy waters excitedly. Turning around, she saw Ethan standing with an unbothered expression.

She quickly ran over to him and started to drag him in into the muddy waters,

" Come..Come and play with me..Omg..You are so unromantic..Look, it's so fun.."

Ethan didn't move from his spot and suddenly pulled her up into his arms. Surprised, Athena looked up at him through the raindrops confusingly. Meeting his emotional eyes, she was flabbergasted for a while and heard him say lowly,

" What if we didn't meet here, Athena?"

Athena pondered then mumbled with a naughty smile,

" Then someday we would have met each others as in-laws probably."

Ethan's face darkened instantly as he gritted his teeth harder suturing,

" You...."

Athena brust into laughter. This days, she loved to see his helpless side. Rubbing on his drenched shoulders, she commented looking through his raged eyes,

" I would have always found you."

Ethan whose anger had been easied by this single line smiled at her widely. Then he asked back hoarsely,

" You sure?"

Athena nodded compherensively and replied with confidence,

" Yes because we are destined from the beginning. Think about it! Why do I have to meet you co-incidently in this world?"

Ethan grinned and replied rubbing on her waist,

" Your mouth has finally become honeyed. Let me reward you."

He spoke and leant down to kiss her but the woman slipped out from his embrace too fast. Then she started laughing and ran into the raining while giggling loudly,

" You are trying to stop me from enjoying this rain. I won't get fooled again. Come.. come..It's so fun.."

Ethan stayed unmoved and narrowed his gaze at her dangerously. Athena suddenly stopped running,turned around and glared at him unhappily. Then she started to threat him arrogantly,

" If you don't join me, I will beat your son once he is born. You hear me?"

Ethan's face changed expression almost instantly. He started walking and groaned back unhappily,

" What son? It must be a girl."

Athena pouted and retorted while staggering backward through the rain carefully,

" No, I can sense it. It must be a son."

" No.. daughter.."

" I said, son!!! "

" Daughter! A cute adorable daughter."

" No..It's a son.."

" I said..daug..."

" Shut up or else I won't go back with you, Ethan."

" Okay,okay.. It's a son.."
