Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 145

“What are you doing here?” Lia said in a whisper and hurriedly grabbed Ray by the hand, went into the room. This man is becoming too bold now and always come to her room almost every single day whereas they can just meet outside.

Also nowadays, she didn’t even remember not seeing him in one day. As if they are always together now. But, it’s not like she is annoying about that, it’s just she can’t believe they are moving too fast now. Or should, she said, he moves too fast.

“Seeing you of course.” Ray with a seemingly innocent face went straight into the room and sat down on a chair. Although not invited, made Lia is hanging her mouth there for a while.

“You know that is not what I meant here. We can meet outside, at your workshop even. Why on earth do you always come here in my room?” Lia clenched her waist now with her hand. Pretend to be firm.

“I just can’t wait that long to see you. Is it wrong?” Ray was just being honest there.

Hearing that, Lia’s face began to feel warm. This man has always managed to touch her heart like that. So now, she can just sigh there before sitting on the bed which is close to the man.

“Someone might see you Ray.” Lia speaks in her soft voice now. Try to  reason with this stubborn man. She actually feels this man as a big challenge for her as she is also a very stubborn person. But meeting someone far more stubborn than her making her not know how to handle.

“Let them see. Not that I care.” Ray actually means that.

Lia stares sharply at the man now. “I care.”

“Well, too bad then because I don’t.” Ray still doesn’t want to give up.

Lia finally is the one who is giving up now.

“Fine! You win.” She said while shaking her head there.

Ray just smirks in victory. Seeing Lia become frustrated like that somehow making him find her to be beautiful. Weird. But its attraction to him.

“Unbelievable.” Lia said there.

“Now you know my charm.”

Lia laughs there now. Didn’t really know what make her feel this kind of things hilarious.

“So what made my prince come here today?” Lia started asking seriously with both of her hands lifting her chin there. Watching Ray, who looked happy every time she said the words, ‘my prince’ which actually just a slipped of tongue before but Ray asked her to just call him that afterwards. If she wanted of course.

“My father give me and the other prince a new order.” Ray began to say there.

“Really? Are you going to miss out James’s wedding?” Lia wants to know that.

“Of course not. He asks all of the six princes and Jieun to go to Coastal Land right after the wedding.”

“Is there something wrong there? Is it dangerous to convey you need to bring Jieun as a healer?” Lia began to feel a little worried. Worry if any untoward incident happens again.

Ray was silent there. It was as if he was thinking of something deep.

“Oh, I’m sorry. That must be confidential information for this land that outsiders can’t know about that.” Lia patted her mouth a little there.

Ray frowned his face now.

“You are not an outsider Lia.” He said it in the firm.

“Oh…” Lia find it hard to react to that.

“There are strange things happening there so King Mizuto asks us for help. But he wants us to be quiet about that because he doesn’t want his people to be upset with this.”

Lia nodded there. She knows being a leader is definitely difficult because he has to think about many things, including taking care of the hearts of the people, which is the most important thing.

“How long will you be there?”

Ray shook his head.

“After all of the issues are resolved for sure. But because we don’t yet know how bad the problem is, it’s hard to predict. And after that, we need to go to the Elysium Land for about two weeks.”

Lia was a little surprised at that time because she also didn’t think that King Liam would direct them there, but it’s not her place to ask ‘why’. The king must have his own reason.

“Well then, I will pray for your safety.” Lia smiles there.

But what she is saying just now making Ray feel a bit mad and uncomfortable. How dare this girl seems to be able to accept his departure that there is no such time limit. Did she not feel the same way as he? Who feel anxious about having to leave her for so long.

Ray then got up there and brought his face closer to Lia, who is now was shocked by his fast movement.

“What? What’s wrong?” Lia asked when she could feel the aura of anger from the man.

“Here I am, feeling worried to leave you alone for a possible long time, but you just said that? It seems like you didn’t care about me.” Ray said half sulking half angrily.

And how wrong he is. Lia just actually good at hiding her true feeling.

“It’s not that. I actually didn’t know how to react. Its not like I can follow you there even if I wanted to.”  Lia told him now in her shy face.

Seeing her honest eyes there making Ray believe her.

“You really like to see me get angry, huh?” Ray complains there. Making Lia smiling with sorry at him now.

Feeling the urge to capture her lips there like he always does, Lia swiftly pushed a little of his body there, escaping while giggling. This time she didn’t want him to always get his way.

Ray can only chuckle as he missed his target.

Walking backward while look at the man, Lia said,

“Let’s go out then. We need to spend out time to the fullest before you go, right?”

“Where to?” Ray asked as he approached her.

“Hmm… Let go to the greenhouse then. I’m craving for some fresh strawberry.”

Ray then nodded. “Let’s go then.”

After that, walking side by side, they came out of the room and Ray quickly held Lia’s hand there before the girl ran away. Lia tried to pull his hand while warning him in silence, but he just make a poker face there.

“What are you two doing?” Suddenly a voice rebuking them from behind made the two of them turn away.

“Father…” Lia began to sound a bit nervous there. She knows that they finally get caught as they just come out of the room and Ray is holding her hand. She can even bet that her father, King Arthur there already sees everything.

With that she try to pull her hand there so that Ray’s boots are released, gripping her hand even harder there.

“King Arthur.” He said as he bowed his head there. Greeting the winter region King.

King Arthur, who accidentally saw the scene in front of him froze instantly there. His face even didn’t react so much, but on the inside, he actually love what he sees a lot because his hope of marrying Lia to one of Liam’s children seemed to be coming true.

“Follow me.” He said there while walking straight, leading them to follow him. Lia was only able to bow her head while Ray remained unassuming there.

What they didn’t see is that King Arthur is smiling all the way until they get to their destination. King Liam throne.

After a few minutes,

Ray and Lia stood in front of the two kings who were now looking at them. King Liam who was sitting on his throne, also looked like he was stunned seeing the new couple in front of him while King Arthur explained what happened.

“Did you hear this Liam?”

Arthur ask his best friend there, before whispering,

“Let just push them to get married fast before they change their mind. You know how much I wanted to become your family didn’t you.” Arthur said in desperate there before changing his face to firm again.  Pretending to be mad with what just happen.

Liam just made a lazy face there and then asked,

“How long have you two had this kind of relationship?”

“Not long. We just decide to start seeing each other with interest.” Ray said in confidence.

King Liam smirks a little.

“You just know each other, but already be in the same room? How fast.” He teases a little. Lia kept blushing there.

“We didn’t do anything. We were just talking as we didn’t want a lot of people to know about this yet. That’s why we met in private.” Lia also spoke up.

“Why you… You should take a chance then and make our grandchild.” Unexpectedly King Arthur announces his true intention there making Ray smiling knowingly and Lia sends a very dark aura towards her father there.

King Arthur can just bite his lips there.

“Since James wedding will take place next week, how about we just proceed this and make a joint wedding for you to also? Any objections about it?”

“Huh?” Lia was shocked there.

While Ray looked right at King Liam at that moment.

“That’s brilliant. I’m sure James wouldn’t mind.” Arthur agrees on that quickly.

“Because of the Vollmond troupe, I’m afraid that we probably don’t have time to do a ceremony like this in the near future because later, we need to hunt them. As you know, anything can happen in war. So if you already have a good feeling towards each other, let just proceed with the ceremony as fast as possible. What do you say? ”

Ray looked at Lia, who was now also looking at him. Then she smiled there, answer the silent question that Ray gave her.

Then…

“We have no objection..” Ray said that in smiling.
