Capítulo 324: Chapter 324: Decisions of the Heart: Ariel and Amon Move Forward

"Amon, what is the nature of our relationship now?" Ariel asked, nestling her head on his chest.

Amon showed no surprise at the question. In fact, he seemed to expect such an inquiry, a slight smile forming on his lips.

"You already know what I desire," said Amon, gently touching Ariel's nose. "But the question is... what do you want it to mean?"

What she wanted... It was a complex question. Although she knew the answer her heart longed to express, there was hesitation, a fear of facing that reality. It was like standing on the edge of a cliff, knowing that once she jumped, there would be no turning back. This thought deeply frightened her.

"Actually..." Ariel began, hesitant, her voice trembling and her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. But, gathering courage, she rose, lifting her head from his chest and looking into his honey-colored eyes. Finding a fragment of confidence, she declared: "I want our relationship to move to a new phase!"
