Bab 1338: Back in Kera

Rain and Sapphire resolved to gain the trust of the sand thieves, hoping to get their help in saving Sourna and Valeria. In the meantime, Sweetbriar Town became infested with love.

Arthur awakened the next morning in their bed, feeling the soft fabric on his skin. Beside him was a sleeping Diana who, for some reason, acted like a heater to warm him. It might be an innate trait of the phoenix.

As he pushed her blonde hair back, Diana rolled toward him. He got to see her peaceful, sleeping face as he caressed her face. Her shards for ears reminded him that she was not human, but a half-ice spirit. And for that reason, he began to imagine their children.

"Ah, too soon," muttered Arthur as he ruffled through his hair. Diana stirred in her sleep but did not awaken. Arthur smiled as he picked up a coat and threw it over his naked skin before walking outside on the balcony.
