"Huh?"


    Velnorah hurriedly stood up, looking at the man in front of her, "Tian... what are you doing here?"


    With a chuckle, Zhao Tian stepped forward and hugged her "I thought you would miss me, so I came here to see you." Read latest chapters on novelhall.Co?m


    Velnorah was dumbfounded and hurriedly hugged him back, burying her face into his neck "Tian..."


    Zhao Tian smiled as he placed a kiss on her head.


    Fei Lingxi’s ring was still connected to his dorm room the last time she came out, so when she used her ring along with him, he was easily teleported to his room in the dorm.


    A soft sigh escaped Velnorah’s lips, feeling the warmth from his body "I indeed missed you... more than you realize."


    Zhao Tian hugged her closer "Maybe it’s the blood bond you created.. I felt like you were missing me, so I came here as fast as I could."


    A smile appeared on Velnorah’s lips upon hearing this "Thank you Tian, I love you so much..."


    ...


    "Haa... Haa..."


    As their lips parted, Elvoria’s breaths came in soft gasps, her cheeks flushed a delicate shade of pink under the moon’s glow.


    She leaned back slightly, letting Selena’s fingertips brush against her collarbone, tracing the curve with a deliberate tenderness.


    "You always know how to leave me breathless," Elvoria murmured, her voice laced with vulnerability that she rarely allowed to surface.


    Selena leaned in, their foreheads touching as her hands found their way to Elvoria’s waist, pulling her closer until their bodies were pressed together once more.


    "Elvoria..." Selena whispered, her lips grazing against Elvoria’s, teasing her with the promise of another kiss.


    Elvoria’s hands roamed, her fingertips trailing along Selena’s spine, feeling the slight arch of her back as she responded to the kiss.


    Selena broke the kiss first, her lips brushing against Elvoria’s jawline "By the way... what are you doing here? In the capital, I thought you would be near the Jade Eclipse sect."


    Upon hearing this, Elvoria grinned "I heard that Velnorah got herself a Vryienne... so I wanted to make him mine and want to see the despair in Velnorah’s eyes."


    Selena smirked as she licked her lips "Hoh, I see... seems like that little daughter of yours has stepped into adulthood."@@@@


    Elvoria’s face churned in disgust "Don’t even call her my daughter... I only love you, if only you could impregnate, I would gladly accept our daughter and raise it."


    "That Velnorah is such a disgrace to me."


    He leaned forward, brushing a stray strand of hair from her face with a gentle hand.


    His touch was light, careful not to wake her, but Velnorah stirred slightly, her lashes fluttering as she opened her eyes.


    "Zhao Tian..." her voice was soft, still laced with sleep.


    She blinked up at him, and her lips curved into a faint smile.


    "I didn’t mean to wake you," Zhao Tian said, his voice low and soothing. "Rest a little longer."


    Velnorah reached out, her hand finding his.


    Her fingers were slender, warm against his palm. "You’re leaving?" she asked quietly, her eyes holding a mix of understanding and a touch of sadness.


    Zhao Tian nodded, leaning closer so their foreheads touched. "I still have some matters to take care of,"


    Velnorah’s gaze softened further as she looked up at him "Please come whenever you have time like this. Being with you feels.. very peaceful."


    Zhao Tian’s lips quirked upward as he cupped her cheek, his thumb brushing against her smooth skin. "I surely will."


    He leaned in, pressing a soft, lingering kiss to her lips.


    Velnorah responded, her hand sliding up to rest against his chest.


    When he pulled back, their eyes met, and for a moment, neither spoke.


    "Stay safe," Velnorah finally said, her voice a little firmer now, though her tone remained gentle.


    "I will. And I’ll be back before you know it."


    She nodded, "Mhm..."


    Zhao Tian stood, his hand lingering on hers for a moment longer before he finally let go.


    As he walked to the door, he glanced back, looking at her one last time.


    Velnorah had sat up now, the sheets pooling around her waist as she watched him with a small, soft smile.


    "Take care, Tian."
