Chapter 97: Road Back
-Leon's POV-
"Are you sure you can't stay for a few more days?... You've only had a day's rest."
He and I shook hands and I spoke.
"Nono, I think it's time we head back, we still have some things to do."
Luna bowed to the king.
"Thank you for your hospitality."
"No Thanks is needed."
Luna and I walked to the familiar carriage and we were off.
The whole reason we came here was to contract peace with the nation, so there wasn't a need to stay
longer than a few days.
I watched as the castle slowly faded in the distance.
We sat there, as usual, holding each other.
Luna and I sat watching the changing scenery for quite some time.
Day turned to night in the boring carriage, we slept together in such carriage.
Though as we etched closer to daylight we took a detour from our once ridden path.
I woke up and noticed how we were closing in on the destination I was hoping for.
Luna woke up a little while after and looked out the window, she covered her eyes from the shining sun.
She then noticed the scenery had changed and turned to me.
"Leon where are we going.?."
"We just took a slight detour, though our destination is still the same, don't worry."
"Oh."
Still hazy she spoke and laid her head on my lap, her body snuggled closer as well.
I put my hand on her head and closed the curtains.

The carriage stopped, I looked out the window and saw a little house.
"Luna, We've arrived."
She opened her eyes and I opened the curtains.
She had a clear view of her old house, our carriage stopped directly in front of it.
I could feel her grip on my clothes start to tighten, her voice became dim and so did her expression.
"Don't..."
I looked at her with a bit of a puzzled expression.
"Don't tell me you going to return me, leaving me here alone.?."
Her tone grew more saddened, I could hear the fear and crying within her. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"Please.."
She was pleading to me, though I had no intention of giving her up.
I reached my hand touching her cheek, her face that was facing down, and growing tears I made face
me.
I have a warm sincere smile and spoke with much of the same delight.
"Don't worry, I'll never let you go."
I pulled her close and hugged her tightly.
"Remember you have my heart and I have yours, I won't be able to live on without you by my side. "
I pulled away and nudged my forehead to hers looking her in the eye and then closed mine before
speaking.
"So, you don't have to fret over such matters ever again."
As our eyes met once more our lips did as well.
I opened the door and we stepped out.
