The truth was, Emery couldn't stop being concerned about Morgana. It appeared her erratic behavior only got worse and now she and all the fey sisters were still miles away from the Forbidden Forest. It might take them a whole day just to return.
He wished he could just cast [Spatial Gate] and take them all back first, but he didn't have the heart to just leave the unconscious girl lying in bed next to him.
To a certain extent, the [Healing Paste] should do wonders to her wound, but he couldn't help but be concerned about the head wound.
If only he could still cast his [Nature Blessing] spell. Everything would have been much easier.
In the end, Emery looked after her and stayed up the whole night, waiting until her eyes finally started to flutter open.
"Urghhhh…" Gwen rubbed the back of her head and instantly felt sore. "I think I just had the best sleep…"
Emery let out a long, exasperated sigh and asked.
"How are you feeling now?"
The golden-haired girl looked at him and gave him a teasing smile.
"Knowing that you stayed up all night to take care of me… Definitely much better."
Emery gave her a wry smile, shook his head and said. "I see, if you can still tease me, I guess you are fine."
He paused for a second, looked at her happy face and said. "If you are feeling better, let me call someone to look after you, alright? I need to go out for a while"
For an instant, Gwen's expression turned dismayed, but it lasted no more than a fraction of a second, as she rubbed her head and carefully laid back down on her pillow. "Aaa… My head…"
Right as she did, Emery's expression turned into one of worry. He quickly walked towards her and said. "Let me check your wound first."
Then, he gently placed his hand on the back of her neck, pulled her up and reached onto her hair to see the wound.
"Hmm... It seems the wound has fully closed… Can you tell me which part was hurting?" Emery raised his eyebrows and looked at her head carefully, trying to pinpoint the source of the pain.
Gwen didn't answer, she merely smiled. She was just playing with him.
At this moment, Emery realized both their faces were so close to each other.
His heart started to race, his face was heating up. Before he could collect himself, Gwen grabbed his other hand, gently put it on her chest and said.
"Can you feel it, Emery?..."
Emery could feel it, it seemed her heartbeat was as fast as his.
She stared at him, her eyes full of sincerity and adoration, and said.
"Will… you…"
She was close, so close. His dream girl, the same girl he once thought as unattainable, was now standing so close to his face. He could feel her erratic breath and within moments, his self-restraints crumbled. With consideration to her current state, he slowly pulled her closer and their lips met.
The moment their lips touched each other, it felt like sparks of lightning connected them. The warmth of the touch gave way to spark a fire in their hearts. Time seemed to stop as the ecstasy connected them.
Only for the moment to be interrupted with a knock on the door.
Emery was dismayed, but he was forced to let her go.
"I… I'll see who it is."
Gwen was unable to even mouth an answer. She merely nodded, the kiss still flooding her mind.
To his relief and annoyance, the knock came from the estate assistant, who reported that a guest came to see him.
"Who is it?" Emery's expression turned serious.
She reported it was a group of knights from Logress.
Emery concentrated his spirit reading sense on the living room downstairs and he was able to sense the presence of a group of knights outside the estate and a few in his living room. He recognizes one of the men. It was the golden prince of Logress.
"It's Arthur, he is here." Emery said.
He saw Gwen frown. "Well, I guess we can't let the future king of the kingdom wait, can we?"
"It's okay, you stay here and rest." Emery firmly said, before walking out and closing the door. He went towards the living room hall to see his guests.
As he expected, it really was Arthur, accompanied by Sir Gawain and a few other knights. Right as he saw Emery, he whispered to Gawain and every knight left the place, leaving the two of them.
"What a great honor, for the golden prince to come to my humble abode." Emery said.
The prince explained he also had some business with Luna and some of the places around the kingdom, which were once part of Lioness territory.
"It's great for you to be here, Emery. I actually wish to talk to princess Gweeneth as well. I heard she is currently in the Fey Village?" Arthur asked.
"Actually-"
Before Emery was able to explain, they heard the click of a door, along with footsteps. Gwen walked into the hall, not caring about the presence of a guest. She wore a casual gown and her hair was messily tied up, showing that she just woke up.
"Greetings, Prince Arthur." Gwen said, before sitting next to Emery.
Emery turned worried and said she was not supposed to be up and about just yet, but the girl rebuked it, saying she felt well enough to stop being confined to bed. They had a small argument, all in full view of Arthur.
The golden prince could only watch them talk with mixed feelings.
"Ah, I see…" He nodded and smiled. "I had my guesses, but seeing it first-hand, unfolding in front of me… I have to say I can't help but feel jealous."
He looked at Gwen and gave her a dry smile. "So, this is the reason you havent been replying to my letter then?"
Gwen looked at him and nodded.
