Alex and Luna finally reached a tall hill in a park that seemingly overlooked a great part of the commercial district.
Luna admired the beautiful view while Alex stood behind her and hugged her. Luna did not put any resistance because it was the one she loves that was holding her, she felt at peace inside his arms.
At the same time, Alex on the other side.
He felt all his worries slip away when he holds her like this. For a moment he doesn't need to pretend anymore as it could be said that the one in front of him knows him the best.
''Don't worry I'm here. I'll try to take some of your burdens. I'll be strong enough to not drag you down. I don't know what the third princess wants with you but I will try to help you to the best I can. Unlike others, I'm aware that a storm is coming and you'll be at the center of it.'' Luna said while leaning against Alex.
Alex was surprised by his childhood sweetheart's words.
''Why do think that the princess wants something with me?" He couldn't help but ask as he knew that the information of him visiting the third princess was known by a only handful of people, Luna and others were not certainly part of it. And he was sure that Gracier had not said anything as he had forbidden her of spreading it.
Luna smiled, ''Well, it was not hard to know because she appeared just after you came.
When we were in class, she kept glancing in your way while murmuring something to Lilith beside her. The others may have not noticed it but I'm different.''
''How so?" Alex asked teasingly as he could more or less guess what her answer was going to be.
As expected Luna did not immediately answer, biting her lower lip she muttered rather inaudibly,
''It's because I almost secretly observe you.''
''Hahaha, I'm flattered to have a beauty looking at me. I know some people who will die of jealousy knowing this fact,'' he said while hugging Luna's waist a little bit tighter.
''Humph! Let them be. I'm already taken. Even if I wasn't none of them entered my eyes. There is no they can do that's will change this fact.'' Luna declared.
Alex felt pity for those thinking of getting Luna.
'Well, she is mine. I'll never hand her over to anybody.'
''Do you know why Damien seems obsessed with you? Because I do not think it's only because he's infuriated with you.'' Alex suddenly asked because to him Damien's possessiveness in regards to Luna was strange. From what he gathered, the two had never seen each other, and even if he may have seen Luna in a newspaper, yeah there's a newspaper in this world, this still couldn't explain his unusual behavior.
Luna could not help but sigh, ''I don't know the exact reason but may it's has something to do with the fact that I'm the Saintess?"
Alex pondered over Luna's words for seconds and could not help but find her words reasonable. As the Holy Crux being a religious organization, Luna's status, her class, her power was more than welcomed as she could be used to boost the popularity of the church, getting new believers.
'I wonder what kind of God they worship?' He wondered but he decided to look into it later as he had the impression that what they want Luna for was not only to boost the church's popularity but for something else. As for what their real purpose is, he was going to find out because he couldn't let knowing danger befall his loved ones.
Alex and Luna decided to sit on the nearby bench.
Just as they sat Luna suggested,
''Just lay down a little bit. You seem tired.''
While saying so, Luna repeatedly tapped on her thighs, her suggestion was rather obvious, Alex gulped before laying down, putting his head gently against Luna's thighs.
Alex was currently experiencing what all males desire to experience at least once in their life. The legendary lap pillow.
Gently brushing Alex's hair she said, ''I want to know what you went through. I want to know everything, do not forget any details.''
Alex chuckled as previously it was him that asked to know everything about her encounter with the other two and now it was his turn. The roles have been reversed.
He started recounting all he experienced, about his encounter with Gracier, how he became his sister, what they went through, about the test. He did not tell her about his right eye nor did Luna asked as she knew that there were some things people like to keep for themselves as everyone has their secret.
Even if she doesn't know now doesn't mean it will stay like this in the future.
''Waouh! You went through a lot of things that I'm even jealous of. Well, we are now together, we will adventure together from now on.'' Luna declared before suddenly asking.
''Silveria is not your master, am I wrong?"
Alex chuckled, ''What make you say that?"
Playing with Alex's hair she said, ''Well, it's Athena who said that she's not your master.''
''Athena?" Alex was confused as it was his first time hearing such a name, well except for reading about Athena, the goddess of war in greek mythology. He doubts that it was her Luna was talking about.
''Ah! I forget to introduce her. Athena is my Gift's spirit.'' Luna explained.
Alex's eyes widened. He remembered that Silveria had said something like that.
Leonardo's Gift's spirit is called Arthur.
'I wonder why they possessed names related to mythology characters?' he thought to himself.
''Indeed, she is not my master. We decided to play such a role for our protection.'' Alex explained as there was no benefit in hiding it when the other party was already aware of Silveria's identity.
''I see. A rather ingenious plan. What is your goal, Lex?"
To Luna's question, Alex immediately responded by saying, ''I want to have enough strength to protect my loved ones. To be able to do it I'm must stand at the apex, to become the strongest. I know it won't be easy, I'm just an ant at the moment, there is a lot of stronger people than am I, however, it's only now. This is going to change.''
Even though she could only see one of his eyes, this one was shining when he firmly declared he will stand at the top one day. As his woman, her blood boiled, her battle intense rose, therefore she declared.
''And as your woman, I must help you. I can't say I'll become the strongest but I'll have enough strength to watch your back, I'm not your a battle lover after all.''
Alex's lips twitched when he heard Luna's words, she may foul others but Alex with his memories back know how scary she is. When angry she's like a demon.
''What with that looks?" Luna asked when she saw Alex not responding to her declaration.
''Nothing, I just remembered that someone likes to fight all time when we were child, however now she's saying. Ah! Forget it.'' Alex said with the corner of his lips curled into a grin.
Ouch!
However, soon he cried of pain as his cheek got pinched hard by Luna.
''I dare you to say again. Who likes to battle?''
''It's my dear Lû.'' Alex said with a smile.
Luna was infuriated as she did like people saying she loves battle, it made her appear unladylike. She pouted,
''What if I love to fight? You won't me anymore?''
''What a foolish question is that? Of course, I'll want to you.'' Alex said to her. His tone was firm and sincere.
''Alex, you already know my feelings. Even so, I will still say it right here right now, I can easily confirm. I love you. From the bottom of my heart, I love you. I love you so much it hurts."
She declared in a soft and firm voice. Taking his hand into her, she continued,
''I love you so much that I do not mind sharing you with others. I just want a place in your heart. Today feel like a dream, I know it is not a dream. Please promise you will not disappear from my life as you did in the past, you will forget about me. Because, if this were to happen I think I'll go crazy. Never let go of this hand, never let go of me or not I'll hunt, I'll curse you.''
''Silly girl. No need to worry, I'm here I'm not going anywhere. I'll never let you go. You're mine since that day under the moonlight when became engaged. No matter how many women I'll have, you'll be my number one. Nobody is going to take your place, not even Maria. I vow to take care of you until death part us and even if there's an afterlife we will still be together. It's me who's afraid of you leaving me one day.''
''I'll never leave you. Without you, my life will be meaningless. You know why I have broken down in this unfamiliar world?" Luna suddenly asked.
Alex shook his head.
Luna smiled, ''One part is because I've my sisters with whom we shared a lot of things but the biggest part is because I know that you are here with me. This reason was enough for me to live on, to try to become stronger, for your sake and my sake, for the sake of my sisters.''
''I see, I'm honored to learn this. Don't worry, I'm here now. Please take care of me from now on my fiancee.''
Alex said gently before using his hand to lower Luna's face until he kissed her. It was a light kiss.
This was the second time Luna was kissed in her life, the first time it was when they were eight years old and the second time was today.
All she could remember was how sweet it tasted. Sweet as today's date.
