Bab 215: Pinky promise

Hugo and I spent the night wrestling on the bed. After rolling on the floor in the sitting room, we continued it to our bedroom. We didn't stop as if the world was ending; it was as though it was our last night together, giving our all, indulging in each other's heat. 

Despite the exhausting yet fun night together, I wasn't paralyzed on the bed like three years ago. I still had the energy to go out and see the situation. Bowie and the rest of our group traveled back to the empire with us, but we arrived earlier. 

I knew they were full of questions. The reason I planned to welcome them in the empire... but I might do that later. 

"Mama!"

I looked back. There, at the end of the corridor, stood a young, chubby boy. His eyes shimmering, clad in a noble attire fitting for a prince. My heart instantly warmed up at the sight of Toby that reached my eyes.
