Chapter 175

”Why are we in the frozen north?” asked Stella, looking around .

Joseph smiled, ”It's summer, so the cold shouldn't bother us, and with everything around dead for miles, we shouldn't be bothered . ”

She looked at him, and he could tell she wasn't sure about his intentions .

”Cute, but you're not getting another kiss . ”

ENCHANT/CREATE PLANT .

All around them, trees began to grow .

(YOU ARE AWARDED 1 LIFE POINT FOR FUSING A SPELL INTO A LIVING BEING . )

As they watched, the trees grew blossoms and green leaves, then small fruits began to grow .

With a small laugh, Stella recognized them as oranges, turning to him with bright eyes .

”I wanted to get away from everything, not just the people, but everything, and just be alone with you,” he said, softly, watching her move around the trees as the oranges grew large and ripened .

”These are frost oranges . The cold won't bother them, ever . ”

She glanced at him with large eyes, pulling one off the tree nearest her, and cutting it in half with a quick flick of her wrist . Raising it to her mouth, Joseph watched as she bit into the soft flesh of the orange, and the way her eyes closed in pleasure .

His head still hurt, and Joe was very silent . He knew that Joe was still uncertain of him, and Joseph feared that a wall may have risen between the two, but it was something he was going to have to deal with . NURKONG would pay for the damage he had done . Whatever happened to him, he had to make sure that Stella was happy .

”They have a faint vanilla flavor,” she said in amazement, holding one up as its juices dripped down her arm .

”I know how much you like vanilla cookies, so I infused that into the oranges . ”

”Does this have anything to do with that kiss?” she asked, taking another bite, but never taking her eyes off of him .

”Maybe,” he said, giving her a grin .

She tried to glare at him, but ended up shaking her head and laughing . ”You know vanilla cookies aren't my favorite anymore?”

”Wait, what?” he asked, confused and mock horrified .

”My favorite cookie is actually chocolate chip, but chocolate is so hard to get…”

”Done!” he cried, turning and creating an entire orchard of cocoa plants . Giving them the same cold resistance, he had given the oranges, he pulled several pods off a branch . Several spells later, he held a bowl of chocolate chips .

”And now, I can say that I love you, too,” she laughed, taking the bowl and putting it into her purse for later, sneaking a handful of chips into her mouth in the process .

It was early the next day . They had spent the entire day creating more and more trees of different kinds merely to please her . She had enjoyed it immensely, and Joseph felt rested enough to tackle the tasks that had piled up over the last three months .

”Your majesty?” said Daisy in his head . ”There is a dragon here…it's bigger than Nidhogg! IT'S A REAL DRAGON!”

”Stella, I think my first scale is here!” said Joseph, excitedly . He teleported them above the town, spotted the dragon, then teleported them before it .

The dragon looked them over with his head tilted .

”You have changed greatly, Joseph . ”
