Bellamie stared at the back that hadn't moved from its position. The night in West Metro was actually very beautiful. A large window made of glass showcased most of the outside view. Bellamie could open it with a single automatic button located to the right of the window. But she didn't do it because the blowing wind was quite strong. They were actually ready to sleep, but it seemed something was bothering Xavier. Her husband pulled back the blanket and sat, staring at the large window. Perhaps, Bellamie thought, he assumed she was deeply asleep, allowing him to momentarily leave her who was still comfortably covered with the blanket.In fact, since Xavier returned from the city center, they had been talking casually. Gala, who had started to show less worry, also joined in, though he wouldn't move from Cathleen's side. Bellamie understood her son's feelings and actions very well. Although Seth had advised and warned Gala to at least rest, it seemed the young man chose to ignore it. B

The gentle movement on Bellamie's lips was immediately responded to with an equally gentle response. The hand that was originally in Xavier's grasp was placed back around her husband's neck. What she felt again was when the fairly large palm greeted Bellamie's waist, only covered in thin sleepwear. He lifted Bellamie's body slowly until she was truly on Xavier's lap. Still with lips pressed against each other."I never questioned what you look like now, Rose," Xavier said right above the surface of his wife's moist lips. He momentarily stopped his play on those tempting lips. "To me, you're still Bellamie Rosaline, whom I loved since the first time we met."A sense of emotion infiltrated Bellamie's heart. Warm and truly made Bellamie look at Xavier even more closely."Do you still remember our first meeting?""I will never forget, Xavier."Bellamie never forgot that day. The day when the South Metro was greeted with a winter that made Bellamie tighten her scarf. Her eyes wandered to m

Ever since Xavier first saw Bellamie in that alley, he knew he was smitten. His bright light brown eyes were always full of enthusiasm and high optimism. From the height of the buildings surrounding Bellamie's destination, he had been watching her. Even if the dark brown-scarfed girl was smart enough to read the situation, she wouldn't have stepped into that deserted alley that could put her in danger. Yet, those eyes once again disturbed Xavier, where there was a high spirit accompanied by a smile, indicating that she had many hopes.Xavier's eyes betrayed him, even though he didn't need to care, right? His body followed Bellamie from a distance. Out of the many women he had encountered over the hundreds of years, why was he drawn to this woman as if pulled by a magnetic field? Even if examined closely, her face wasn't overly beautiful, and her body could be said to have the typical South Metro woman's posture.True to Xavier's suspicions, a crime occurred in that alley. Seeing that

"I'd prefer it more if I were inside you, Rose."Bellamie giggles. Her eyes glance mischievously at Xavier, who looks a little annoyed because of her movement. "I never stopped you from being inside me, right?"Those words are like magic affirmations for Xavier to rise immediately. Carrying Bellamie's body, which is already like a kangaroo clinging to him. They cuddle intimately with accompanying small shouts when Xavier slightly throws her onto the soft bed they have been using for the past few days. Their bodies are still attached to each other. Bellamie can see her chest rising and falling because she holds back many things that are spinning in her head. Also... the beat that craves to be touched more, which Bellamie knows, she will definitely feel and be amazed under the control of Dimitry Darrel Xavier, who is her husband."You're beautiful. Have you heard my praise today?""Not yet. And you just said it."Xavier chuckles. "You're always beautiful in my eyes, Rose. Very beautiful

Nothing Maverick likes more than these recent days. He still enjoys being alone, observing from the height how South Metro is starting to come alive again. While puffing smoke from his cigar and occasionally disturbed by Russel's quite demanding reports, Maverick genuinely likes it. Not without reason, he feels like finding a new spirit to make South Metro more advanced. In any aspect. Even if it can compete with someone like Alexander Millian.The smoke he exhales from his cigar has filled the room again. It's been several minutes where he hasn't done anything except stare at the beautiful scenery from his current position. The recent reports from Russel also show many things that make Maverick smile broadly. Until..."Is this your only activity, Mave?" The door to his room opens wide, and the intruder enters as if he owns the place. Walking without feeling guilty at all. His white robe follows the constant movement of his walking feet."Don't you have anything else to do besides bot

"I don't think so." Maverick tries to remember. "Most of the questions are like a quiz. Tricky and disgusting. Clearly, I don't want to replace Gideon. Seriously," Maverick adds later. "I've said many times that Xavier is the one who deserves to be in power. If he can't persuade Xavier to be there, why should I be bothered? Can I persuade a man who is just as annoying as his son?"Maverick's string of words becomes its own entertainment for Alex. Where they both end up laughing together, laughing at what happened in the past few days, where they almost experienced the same thing."But I'm sure, if Xavier is not a person who wants to be in the highest power." Maverick gives his view. "You know that clearly, right? He's a true fighter. His duty is to protect, even though the capacity to be a leader is unquestionable. Although, there is more to Xavier for that position.""I agree with you on this, and that's my goal coming here. Asking if Erick asked anything about the Haidar Galaxy?"Ma

Xavier was in quite an awkward situation as he walked with his son. Just the two of them. At a time when things could be considered peaceful and not much to worry about. This was actually a great and rare opportunity, right? He should make the most of this time and, if possible, continue to make an effort to be with Gala and Bellamie. This is what he's doing while waiting for Cathleen to wake up. Occasionally, Xavier asks Kyler about Cathleen's progress privately because there's a lot to talk about regarding Cathleen. Although what they really need to increase is the waiting time.Except for one thing that, for Xavier, could be considered a disturbance. Interruptions from Erick, which have already made Xavier quite annoyed. But he can't just chase the guy away because the political relationship has been established for a long time.He understands why Erick is pressing him and asking for information about his only son. After all, Xavier clearly knows the consequences that will come onc

Gala laughs, knowing his dad is covering something. Somehow, he's felt his sensitivity to something has increased, especially through the gaze of someone talking to him. "Really? I haven't even thought about what strategy to take against Dad.""But when you fought against Gideon, everything seemed well calculated."Gala chuckles in response to the smirk on his father's face. "No, Dad. Everything just happened as if something was guiding me. As for deploying troops and their leaders, we all discussed it briefly."Xavier is astonished. "All of them?""All of them." Gala nods. "Sounds strange?""Very. They always move individually, not caring about each other, even competing and not wanting to give in. They even compete to show off the best. You can see and judge for yourself someone like Maverick Osmond."Gala agrees with his father's narration. "It's a bit difficult, especially since they're all stubborn, but at least I succeeded in some parts."Xavier pats Gala's shoulder again. "Not

"Maverick!" Alex yells, where his sword has been pulled perfectly. Repelling the sudden and quite brutal attack because these big cats are very different from the animals that have been showing the way to this strange forest. Where pine trees that used to look dense now begin to shift or not, who knows. In Alex's eyes, everything seems to be moving away as if bringing them to a fairly large but rocky place.The sky is still as dark as Alex knows. His sword swings several times, pressing the cat to retreat, but it seems their strength is immense. Alex fights against almost four animals, which have very long fangs. Their orange eyes and hisses are terrifying. Alex is sure that if he gets bitten by those fangs anywhere on his body, it will result in a deep wound. Moreover, if these creatures are mythical, it means the injuries they cause can be severe."Try not to get bitten," Alex says loudly. His sword swings again to hit one of the heads of the creature that suddenly jumps to attack h

"Okay. Forgive me. I don't know why you keep saying that I'm careless because I want to throw away the die. You owe me too much, Cathleen.""I know." Cathleen smiles thinly. Her eyes again stare at the link of their hands. "We will live long while holding hands like this, sir. Trust me. The time waiting for you won't be long. And when that day comes, I'm sure we'll all be happy together."Actually, Gala doesn't want to release the girl's grip, but once again, Cathleen's gaze is so convincing. "How long?""Be patient.""How long, Cathleen?" This time the question is so firm because Gala is not a person who likes to wait for a long time, it turns out. Especially when it comes to Cathleen. The question receives a wide smile from Cathleen. She closes it with a sweet kiss as a farewell before she really releases the link of their hands."Do many things with the people who love you, sir. I think the time waiting for you won't feel long."Gala blinked slowly."And never, ever intend to throw

Gala blinked repeatedly. He even woke up with very slow movements as if savoring the moment. In front of him, Cathleen stood with her sweet smile. The color of her face looked fresh. Her blue eyes were lively. Not to mention... oh my! Gala could hardly believe his own eyes."You... you... real?"Cathleen sighed loudly. She walked with a bit of lifting her somewhat bothersome dress. "Actually, I haven't finished my task. Why are you so careless!"The young man stood silent, motionless, with his eyes fixed only on Cathleen, who was now approaching."I've often said that this die can't be handed over. It has a special authentication code regarding its owner. When you intend to discard it, negative energy comes out just like that. And do you know what happens?"Gala is still confused. "Wait, wait! Don't say things I can't digest so quickly.""When are you going to respond to all my statements?" Cathleen grumbled to herself. She carefully took the die hanging around Gala's neck. Her lips s

Gala coughs violently. The pain in his back makes him suddenly breathless. He falls to his knees with a grin that still doesn't want to diminish even a bit. How could it diminish when he repeatedly had to hit trees or large rocks around him. The die still can't be touched again and emits a stronger blue light. Gala still remembers the first time they met in that corridor. The blue light... bright but also makes his heart quite comfortable. But this time, the blue around the die is different.Which Gala eventually realizes, the blue light comes from the hologram girl's projection. The original color of the die itself is a not-too-bright orange, not dazzling, but always makes Gala excited. Somehow the die has a way of being near Gala, but that's what the young man feels."Return," Gala whispers softly while wiping the corner of his lips slowly. The intention to throw away the die as far as possible seems to have to be reconsidered. What he is experiencing now seems to be a protest from

Xavier's earlier remark makes Maverick chuckle. "If you're joking, you should pay attention to your surroundings. If you leave my body there," Maverick points quickly, "What will happen to South Metro without me?"Xavier remains silent. He starts thinking about how to cross this seemingly endless chasm, except for the dangerous fog and steep rocks. He never knew there was a black panther guarding East Metro. He should have asked who this big cat really was before deciding to follow it. Ah, it's all because of Maverick who casually requested the big black cat for this Gala search.For some reason, his heart is restless, and everything revolves around the dice. He feels that the dice did something to Gala, and that fear is proven. In front of him is no longer the forbidden forest where the end should be a twin hill, one of its slopes slightly sloping. Indicating the border with North Metro, but what he sees is no longer what he imagined. Everything looks very different.He has lived for

Moreover, until that moment, his whereabouts were unknown. And now, for some reason, what really happened and what he went through made him even more curious."What do you want to ask, Alex?"The sturdy man is quite surprised to hear a question from Xavier. When he turns, the man next to him just laughs."Your head is so noisy."Alex blinks slowly. "Don't tell me you know what I—""You guys are too noisy," Xavier quickly interrupts, then his eyes turn to Maverick, who is still enjoying his cigar. "Especially you, Mave.""You know, I do love talking. My mouth feels cramped just being silent like this all the time. Luckily, the cigars I brought have enough stock until tomorrow." Maverick only glances briefly. "I'm sure whatever's in my head Alex won't be easy for you to share, right? So don't bait us to pressure you to speak."This time, Xavier laughed. "I still can't find the right correlation about your relationship with Gala. Has my son often visited you guys?"Both Maverick and Alex

The last trace of Seth's troops deliberately following Gala ends near the Netland village border. One of the quite remote villages but is one of the most popular tourist destinations for residents of North and South Metro. Most tourists come from both Metro regions. The village is still surrounded by evidence where snow perfectly covers its peaks, but it gets the most sunlight. Strangely, the warm light cannot make the hilltops melt. Only pine forests that still grow lush and maintain their authenticity.For this search, Seth was asked not to join, although the man insisted. But what Jiro said was true. At least for the next few days, Seth shouldn't leave the White House, especially when his heart is still uncontrollable. Losing Cathleen must be a severe blow for him. Kyler, who came earlier, also agreed with what Jiro said. Choosing to accompany Seth in this city center.Actually, for Xavier, this search is not too necessary. He is sure Gala is fine. Even if this search needs to be d

"Have you seen Gala?" Maverick has been quite curious about the young man since earlier. Since that news came, he hasn't wasted any time. Seth Rafael can't be lying, but after hundreds of years? What really happened? And how can this young man seem to know the girl in the white coffin very well? Maverick is not blind to notice that some people, including Xavier, seem very affected by this event.As far as his memory goes about the battle that took place between all of them and Gideon, there is no leader of the regions who did not survive. Everything returned to normal despite suffering some injuries. Only Gala. Yes, only that young man didn't come back. Xavier, who last met the young man, did not answer any of Maverick's questions about the whereabouts of his son. As if they were hiding something, but Maverick didn't understand.They returned with a lot of questions, which also made Mave and Alexander agree to search for the whereabouts of the young man.
