My Queen Of Terra - Chapter 247 LET'S GO BACK
To Raigon, she seemed so attractive, so fascinating, so different from ordinary people, that he could not understand why no one was as disrupted as he by the swaying of her hips as she walked confidently.
It’s a mystery to him why no one else’s heart was banging while the winds stirred her long hair, why everyone did not go mad with her contagious smile and her sparkling eyes.
Seeing her again, he ran towards her and encircled his arms around her, his one hand on her head and the other around her waist.
“I take back my word. I knew I made the right choice, The whole world is in my arms right now.”
Zoe was also glad to see him again. But her previous mood must still have an effect on her. She didn’t return back his embrace even though his words were soft and burned their way right into her soul.
Still, she closed her eyes allowing the feeling of being crushed by someone to destroy her doubts and unbelief.
“You made it.” She whispered to him as she appreciated the fact that he appeared right before he went to the hotel so she could pack her things.
Raigon’s warm embrace suddenly went rigid as he gently pulled himself away. He recalled that he didn’t really make it to the last part of his mission.
Still, he cheered himself up as he told her about the developments in the last few days.
“The real culprits for the assassination of the Queen were now convicted.”
He spoke with joy bubbling in his words as his eyes shone.
Erin overheard it as she was just finished checking on Azra’s wounds. “Finally! We can now all be free!”
“Yes. The Crowned Prince even made the royal guards that caused these wounds pay four times the pain.” Azra added with his cheekbones raised.
Erin’s eyes widened in obvious delight which made her look a little sadist. “Beautiful! They get what they deserve!”
She raised up her hand to high-five Raigon, in which he responded as he clasped his palm with her.
Everyone was in a festive mood but the woman in which Raigon’s arm is resting upon.
“How about the Queen and your people?” She gave him a side glance with a tepid smile on her face.
Raigon cleared his throat. He had the other half handled somehow so he tried to say it first with a convincing tone.
“It is the reason why I am here. The Queen is requesting you to treat the King of Terra.”
Zoe’s eyes widened in surprise as she was not expecting that to happen. Her surprised look turned into the opposite as her body waved side by side in enthusiasm with her hands cupping her mouth.
“Can I really do that? But he is the King of Terra! The royal physicians and Physician Sheng Tun may not approve of it.” She bit her lips and moved away, her eyes darting left and right in apprehension.
Seeing her agitated state, his large hands took her face and cupped it gently.
He smiled at her, hoping he could somehow pacify her anxious heart.
Zoe stared at his determined face that was full of strength, shining with a steadfast and serene peace.
A satisfied smile lifted her cheeks as she nodded her head. He was always true to his words. She felt guilty for doubting him even just for a few days.
She stepped backward and made a formal bow to him.
“I’m at your service, your Highness.”
With her reaction, Raigon’s face beamed in color and shone as he tilted his head in the sky in thanksgiving to the God above who answered his prayers in convincing Zoe to come with him.
He wanted to crush her in his embrace and drizzle her with kisses. But since they were at a public place, he decided to control himself for later.
With all his willpower, he responded with a simple bow and assisted them back to the hotel where they were staying so they could get their things.
Zoe and Erin then joined Raigon and Azra back to Terra through the motorboat that they used to get there.
However, when they were nearing the outskirts, they saw the Ng clans who were guarding the edge of the island. They knew they would have seen them from their distance.
“Oh no, what should we do? Should we just go back?” Erin blurted out in fear.
Even though they have been in and out of Terra for several times, what they were doing is still wrong as it was an understood rule in the land.
Azra was also thinking the same thing as it would be a big trouble especially that the Crowned Prince was with them.
“No.” Raigon answered confidently. He then stopped the boat in the middle of the ocean and pulled his hair up in a full updo. He also asked Azra to do the same.
He then removed his shirt revealing his corded muscles.
“W-what are you just doing?” Zoe blurted out as she closed her eyes with her palms. But they had a hole where she could peek at him.
She has seen guys that were almost naked on the beach but she paid no attention to them as she just doesn’t care. But with Raigon it’s different. She suddenly felt the weather turned into a sunny hot one even with the cold breeze of the ocean. She felt her cheeks turned as red as fresh apples in summer.
“I was only imitating what people from your world do. In this way, they would think that we’re just tourists who were having fun.”
Zoe understood what he meant. She recalled her experience with Reeftastic Tours. They reached a certain limitation within the boundaries of Terra.and then stopped to do their snorkeling.
“Yeah, we should just pretend that we’re here for a tour. Great idea!”
