Chapter 72: You can't take my love for granted....

Celestia's POV:

How did Theo know that I am here? I don't think that he can read my mind now. My mental shield has still not worn out. He couldn't possibly know that I am here! Perhaps he is just bluffing. 

When Theo came to my hiding place behind the ash wood tree, I realized that he was not bluffing. He kept grinning at me as I pressed my back against the tree trunk. 

"My love, I am really proud of you today. You..." 

I slapped him on his cheek even before he could say anything more than that. Theo was utterly shocked by my gesture. 

"You evil trickster," I cried out loud. "How could you fool these innocent Valley people? They are all worshipping you like a deity! But you endangered everyone's life just to create chaos?"

"Celestia, no. Let me explain," Theo responded.
