60 Chapter 60: Departure (1/2)

After hearing Caesar mention Elizabeth, Ahri entered into deep contemplation.

Ahri looked at Caesar quizzically, ”why are you asking?” she asked curiously.

”Hmm, no particular reason” Caesar smiled and took Ahri's hand.

”Mmhmm, you always try to seduce me when your hiding something” Ahri rolled her eyes and pouted.

Caesar didn't answer her and they soon reached the front of his bedroom, he could hear happy giggling from the hallway.

*creak*

Caesar and Ahri both stepped in with smiles on their face, the four little girls all turned their heads curiously.

”Daddy and mommy!” Elizabeth called out happily and introduced them to her new friends.

”Make sure you don't get too clingy with mommy, or else daddy will get mad” Elizabeth whispered sweetly into the three young girl's ears.

All three of them nodded their heads solemnly and looked over at Caesar, their big and round eyes were full of curiosity as they studied his features.

The corner of Caesar's lips twitched as he walked over and sat on the bed, he pulled Elizabeth into his embrace and rested his chin on her head.

”What kind of lies are you feeding to your new friends?” He asked playfully.

”Hehe, don't worry daddy… I will make sure that no one gets in the way of you and mommy!” Elizabeth replied with a wide smile.

Caesar rubbed his chin on her hair and chuckled loudly, ”who asked you to be the guardian of my relationship, darling?”

He whispered into her ear causing her to giggle due to being ticklish ”nobody!” she replied sweetly.

Caesar lifted Elizabeth's chin and gazed into her eyes, ”mommy and daddy will be leaving tonight…” he said quietly and pecked her on the forehead.

Elizabeth looked sad for a second but soon replaced it with a wide smile, ”don't forget to get me those sweets you promised me and make sure to come back soon!” she said while trying to hold back her tears.

Caesar rubbed her head, ”of course, how could I forget something so important?” he asked teasingly.

Elizabeth jumped off Caesar's lap and ran towards Ahri, ”you have to bring me back something too mommy, and make sure daddy comes back soon!”

Ahri kneeled down and hugged her tightly, ”I will bring you back something very special!” she said soothingly and also kissed her on the forehead.

Caesar stood up from the bed and walked towards the door, he knew the longer they stayed the harder it would be to part.

He grabbed Ahri's hands and opened the door, he waved towards three little fox-kin girls and Elizabeth one last time.

”We have to go now, be sure not to cause any trouble in the academy Elizabeth”

Elizabeth nodded her head cutely and tears were forming at the corner of her eyes.

*slam*

Caesar closed the door behind him and walked with Ahri towards the palace gates… Ahri looked at him filled with worry.

”Will she be okay without us…” she asked quietly

”She will be fine, besides, have you not noticed yet?” Caesar grinned and asked curiously.

”Noticed what?” Ahri asked doubtfully.

”She has a natural ability to attract people, even me and you were affected...her charm is incredible. Probably no one in this kingdom is going to hurt her.” Caesar said seriously.

”That's a good thing, right?” Ahri asked after thinking for a second.

”It's a good thing unless she attracts the wrong people, however, It is weird…” Caesar replied thoughtfully.

”What's weird?” Ahri asked.

”Her ability to attract people isn't normal, it's astonishing. I never thought about it before but even I, a vampire was attracted to her when I first saw her”

Ahri nodded her head slowly, ”maybe it's just because she is very cute?” she responded with a sly grin.

Caesar just shook his head with a smile, ”when you first saw me, what did you instinctually feel”

”Fear” Ahri answered back without even thinking.

”When she first saw me, she greeted me with a smile” Caesar explained calmly…

”That could be due to her young age though…” Ahri said while lifting her chin with her right hand.

”Possibly, I also wasn't as strong as I currently am... the main issue is that she herself isn't purposefully charming people, it is an uncontrolled power. I would be able to tell if she meant any harm” Caesar replied with a serious expression.

Ahri nodded her head in understanding... ”what should we do then?”
