Chapter 17 - Its a tie (2/2)

Adam even closed the gap between him and Celestia by moving forward and signaling to do a back hug but ended up caging the petite body of the woman.

By that time Celestia is already blushing hard, this is the first time she has been back hugged by someone and oddly enough, she felt cozy, as if that's the place where she belongs. The warm feeling surpassed the pain from the wound she still has from the 50 whip splash she received.

It's because Adam slowly moves, careful and attentive and she never felt special until that moment.

Unexpectedly, Adam too felt that hugging her is the rightest thing to do, as if that girl may break without his arms supporting her, he never felt anything this soft, this fragile. The evil plan he has in mind slowly faded and he has completely forgotten what he is supposed to do so.

"The weather is becoming cold" was all he uttered, still hugging Celestia and surely, the air started to thicken and blows harder than before, signaling an upcoming storm.

Celestia is sure that it was hot when she arrived a little while before but how come the weather suddenly changed?

She shoved off the thought, only the highly ranked profile from the empire can cultivate ancient powers.

Going back her mind screams, 'YOU COULD'VE GOTTEN ME A BLANKET' however her heart tells otherwise, no blanket can surpass his body heat.

Adam sighed in relief when Celestia did not inquire anymore, he rested his head on her small shoulders and relaxed his body by completely sitting on the floor.

He thought he can win, but he will just slip it this time, it's a tie for both of them.

With her heart pounding hard, Celestia continued what she's been doing, careful to disturb Adam's resting body.
