274 Complicated Sibling Relationships (2/2)
”I understand,” he said while wiping the blood off his face using his handkerchief. There was no point in fighting since he didn't come there for that. ”Now, can I visit Nia in peace?”
”Don't you dare touch the kids, Aku Moonchester,” Wixx warned him, then he carefully wrapped his arm around Luna's head to cover her eyes with his hand. ”One funny movement and the Keepers will burn you alive.”
Aku smiled ”sweetly” even though his cheek still hurt from the slap. ”I'll keep that in mind, Lord Wixx.”

”LORD DENVER, is it alright to leave Miss Luna with Lord Red Phoenix?”
Mikhail Denver turned to Blake. ”Miss Luna is safe with Lord Wixx.”
Right now, he and Blake were in-charge of keeping an eye on the royal siblings.
They saw it when Miss Luna and Aku Moonchester almost got into a serious and deadly fight. He was about to jump in the scene to stop and protect Miss Luna, but Lord Wixx suddenly came out of nowhere.
And now that the incident had been solved, he and Blake were on their way to check on the Golden Tiger. Lord Ainsworth's weakness was the cold. Every time he would fall asleep, he would really fall into a long slumber. They had to wake him up each time it would happen.
Blake tapped him on the shoulder. ”Lord Denver, humans have a way to fight against gods too so please don't lose hope.”
Mikhail's face turned red, then he playfully hit Blake's shoulder. ”Shut up, Blake.”

”ARE YOU okay, Luna?”
”No, I'm not okay,” Luna said while looking at the mug of hot chocolate in his hands. Wixx brought her to the kitchen to help her calm down. She appreciated his gesture, but she still couldn't keep her cool. ”I thought Stella is safe in the Royal Palace because Aku Moonchester isn't interested in her. But after what I heard from that bastard”
”Aku Moonchester is just riling you up, Luna,” Wixx, who sat on the chair from across her, said calmly. ”He's not interested in anyone but Nia Moonchester.”
”I'm not worried about that,” she said. ”I'm worried that Stella might force herself on Aku Moonchester. The emperor wasn't lying when he said my sister is smitten by him. That has been the case ever since we met the royal siblings. She even made a medicine that could make the royal princess infertile”
”Why do you think your sister is obsessed with the Moonchesters?”
”I don't know,” she said. ”Ever since Lahara brought us to the Royal Capital in the past, she has been attached to the royal twins for some reason.”
”What do you plan to do now?”
”I want to save Stella,” she said firmly. ”I don't care if I have to drag her out of the Royal Palace.”
She noticed that Wixx suddenly went silent while looking all serious.
Honestly? That made her nervous. She didn't want to say this but Wixx was really very handsome. And that made her suddenly feel conscious.
His gaze is so intense that I feel like melting
”Luna.”
Luna, even if she didn't want to, gulped. ”Y-Yes?”
Wixx smiled lazily that somehow looked sexy. No, she didn't say that in her head, okay? ”Shall we go to my room?”

TILLY braced herself when Garnet Nystrom finally moved.
It broke her heart when the North King melted the ice blindfold that Kiho made. That meant her curse didn't work because Garnet Nystrom refused to let go of his anger.
He was the only one left standing as their other descendants already melted.
”I will not forgive the Red Phoenix even if I die again,” Garnet Nystrom said in a voice filled with anger. Then, he bowed to them which was a big surprise. ”The next time we meet, I will be your full-fledged enemy.”
After saying that, the North King began to ”melt,” not waiting for either her or Kiho to speak.
It's probably some kind of a transportation spell.
Kiho turned to her with a worried look on his face. ”Should we go after him?”
”Let him be,” Tilly said. ”We already expected this to happen.”
”Then, shall we go inside?” he asked. ”I'm worried about the children since Nia and Aku Moonchester are there.”
She nodded, then she let out a deep sigh. ”I want to rest but it seems like we can't.” Since he was feeling clingy and no one was watching them anyway, she hugged Kiho by the waist tight. ”Spoil me, Kiho.”
He laughed softly, then he kissed her on the forehead. ”I like it when you're acting like a spoiled baby,” he said, then he wrapped his arms around her body. ”I'll give you whatever you want, honey.”
”I want a baby.”
”Hmm?”
She looked up at him with puppy dog eyes. ”I've been thinking for a while that I want to have a daughter. Not now, of course. But I really want a mini me.”
He blinked in surprise, then his cheeks turned red as he smiled shyly. ”I'd love to have a daughter with you, Tilly.”
”Then, promise me that it will be our priority after this.”
”I promise,” he said. ”I'm sure Julian and Winter will also be delighted to have a sister.”
She smiled but then, she noticed that her husband suddenly got serious. ”What's wrong, Kiho?”
”I just remembered my sister that Auro Moonchester killed in the past,” Kiho said in a sad voice. ”I never really had the chance to meet her, but I still feel bad that I failed to protect my younger sister.”
”It's not your fault, hon,” Tilly comforted her husband. ”If we are given the chance to meet her this time or in the next life time, let's make it up to her.”

ELAINE stared at the emperor's golden throne.
Since Aku Moonchester left the Royal Capital, Elis Ripperton had been the one in-charge of the Royal Palace. Thus, she was free to roam around. It was also a good thing that Kyro was sleeping in the shrine. She could control Yumi as long as the Moon God was asleep.
So she needed to make good use of the time that she was herself.
The whole Royal Palace used to be the Black Serpent's lair in the past. I need to find it before Brother Aku does. The throne is the clue that I need to decipher.
”Do you want this throne?” Elis Ripperton, who suddenly appeared on the armrest of the throne, asked. ”Is that the revenge that you want against Aku Moonchester?”
Elaine shrugged. ”Maybe, maybe not. I just want to steal everything that Brother Aku want. And I want to steal it just when he thought he already got it.”
”Are you also mad at the Black Serpent?”
”Huh?”
”Your plan to get back at Aku Moonchester would hurt your other brother's plan,” Elis Ripperton said. ”I was wondering if you hate him for not being able to help you in the past.”
”I don't care about that, but I hate everything and everyone that Brother Aku loves,” Elaine said with a bitter smile on her face. ”Of course, that includes Kiho Nystrom the only sibling that he accepts whether now or then.”
