Chapter 283 282- eting Aurora
Zach opened the portal to Aria's domain and walked in before closing it again. He rushed to the throne and saw that Aurora was on the edge of the throne, as though she was trying to jump down.
"....!"
Zach imdiately rushed to the throne, but Aurora slipped and fell down. Luckily, Zach got there in ti and caught her in his arms.
"Are you an idiot? What were you trying to do?!" Zach yelled at Aurora. "You know you can't even move your body properly, yet you were trying to jump off the throne! What if sothing had happened to you?! What if I hadn't co?! What were you even thinking?!"
Aurora stared at Zach with a dumbfounded look on her face, but her eyes suddenly got teary, and she started crying.
"I wanted to see you…" she said while crying.
"How were you planning to see ? You have no power to open the portal!"
"Aria inford just now that you have woken up, so I knew you would co to et …"
"So you wanted to greet at the portal, yeah?" Zach asked with a knowing look on his face.
"Yes…"
SIGH!
Zach jumped and landed on the throne. He placed Aurora on his lap and said, "You are seriously an idiot…"
"I missed you so so much…" Aurora said as she snuggled on Zach's lap.
After Zach had fallen into slumber and Aria and Victoria took him to church, Aurora sent a ssage to Zach to ask him where he was coming to et her. But Zach didn't reply.
She assud that he must be busy with sothing, so she waited for a few hours before finally ssaging Aria and Victoria.
At first, they didn't know what to respond because they had already decided not to tell her anything as she could freak out, and there was no way to visit her to calm her down as neither of them had access to Aria's domain.
However, they said they would eventually have to reply to her as she would freak out more if she didn't receive any response from any of them.
So Victoria decided to chat with her and slowly revealed everything to her in a way that Aurora wouldn't get anxious.
Aurora asked them a few questions and then asked them to take care of Rudy. She told them that she was alright, but in reality, she wasn't.
Just like they were worried about making Aurora anxious, Aurora was also concerned about the sa for them.
While snuggling Zach, Aurora looked into his eyes and bit her lips. They looked lifeless to him as though they had seen tragedies and hiding sadness behind them.'
'His eyes and the expression on his face look the sa as they were when I t him for the first ti in front of the dungeon, although he said that it wasn't him, I think I am sure it was him…'
"What's wrong? Why are you staring at like that?" Zach asked with a grin on his face. "Did my handsoness make you fall in love with even more?"
Aurora knew Zach was trying to hide his pain behind his smile and acting normally as though nothing had happened. She wanted to know the reason behind Zach's sadness so she could cry together with him, but she didn't want to ask Zach to say it.
"You yelled at , and now you are flirting with …" Aurora said in a low voice.
"I only yelled at you because you were trying to do sothing stupid," Zach stated nonchalantly. "And even if Milo was here on the ground to catch you, that was still a stupid move."
"I already said I wanted to et you!"
"Right now, the only thing you need to et is your daily rest quota." Zach stroked Aurora's hair and said, "Sleep."
"Can't we talk for a while?" she asked with puppy eyes.
"What do you want to talk about? There is nothing interesting going on outside, though…"
Aurora turned her face to the side and muttered, "How about telling why you look so sad…"
"..." Zach looked at Aurora with a surprised look on his face. But he smiled with a soft chuckle and said, "I can't hide anything from you, after all."
"What do you expect? I have known you for the longest than any other girl. I can't tell when you are sad or worried just by having one glance at your face…."
"I will tell you everything… but first, look in the eyes…" Zach said in a calm voice.
Aurora looked into Zach's eyes and stared at him with a gentle smile on her face.
"So after I fell into the slumber, I woke up… or rather, I saw a mory from a different perspective where…" Zach told Aurora everything.
She quietly listened without interrupting Zach even though she had so many questions to ask.
After a few minutes, Zach finally finished telling everything to Aurora. In the end, he said, "After everything ended, darkness enveloped , and I woke up."
"So your father knew he would die in the battle, and that's why he wanted you to learn the cause of his death?" Aurora asked with a curious look on her face.
"I think so…?"
"So can I ask why you used to think your father died in a natural disaster all this ti even though you witnessed his death with your eyes when you were a kid?"
"I didn't rember what happened that day. The last thing I rembered was that I got angry at my father and went to my room. Then mother ca with Zoe to have a talk with , but I didn't listen to her and took Zoe from her."
"And while talking with Zoe, I fell asleep. Everything was blank after that, and I don't rember anything, so I always thought he died in a natural disaster. My trauma probably erased that mory."
