As she looked at Rio, she could feel her heart beating faster and a rush of emotions flooding through her. The moment had been intense, but now there was a sense of peace between them.
Rio watched her, still feeling the warmth of her body and the taste of her lips on his own. He couldn't help but feel a mixture of emotions, but one thing was for sure - that kiss had left an indelible mark on him.
"Why didn't I able to resist it," He mumbled with a quiet tone, wiping his lips with the back of his palm with an embarrassed expression.
"As we already had a connection made by those marks, giving me the crown only made it deeper. I don't know how you managed to break my charm before, but this extra pattern of the purple stage crown will deepen our trust in each other," Eve said, her voice carrying a flirtatious tone. She was clearly happy after their intense kiss.
"As I'm your devoted partner, I will tell you a secret. If you give me another crown of the monarch beast, our mark will evolve more and we'll have a bonding like the one you share with Nyla. It will be a sign that you trust me as much as your beloved wife," she added, a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Eve's heart was pounding as she gazed at Rio, her eyes were flickering with joy and her expression was a mix of surprise and happiness. She never expected him to make the first move, initiating the kiss himself, let alone offer her the crown he had earned by defeating the powerful purple stage monarch beast.
She felt her cheeks flush with warmth, thinking how he had daringly grabbed her and kissed her. It was a moment that she would never forget.
As she tried to gather her thoughts, she couldn't help but feel a blissful volcano erupting in her heart that she had never experienced before. Rio had given her not just the crown, but a deeper connection to him, one that made her feel cherished and loved.
"But..." Rio said in a vexed voice as he was having a hard time understanding what had just happened.
'So I messed up everything by myself by giving her another crown. I should've asked first.'
He sighed deeply as It was already too late to reverse what just happened as their connection engraved by the tattoos was even stronger than before.
He only thought to finish the kiss normally by giving her a crown but he didn't expect her to kiss him and fulfill her desire wildly.
All he could do was leave it to fate and see where their bond would take them., if they were really destined to be together then he would just accept it. He would wait and see how their bonding develops in the future but for now, He had to worry about some other business since he only had four weeks left before the royal banquet.
He looked at the girl who was smiling ear to ear and asked, "Now, I'm black stage. Do you have any solution to my problems?"
The girl looked at him, she already had plans to help him even before their new connection was built but now that she was happier she was thinking about how she could support him with all the resources and information she had available to herself.
Eve looked at Rio thoughtfully before speaking. "We both know that Lia loves gardening, so the perfect gift for her would be something related to it. And her favorite flower is the rose so I think I have just the thing in mind - the Star Rose Blossom."
Rio raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Star Rose Blossom? what's so good about it?"
"This is not just any rose plant, it's a rare and exotic type with a fascinating history. Legend has it that it was created by the goddess of love and beauty herself, and it's said to have magical properties that had the ability to make anyone who stayed near it happy and lower negative emotions. Its aromatic scent is known to fill the place with a sense of joy and positivity. I think this would be the perfect gift to show her how much you care, and also bring some happiness into her life."
The elven beauty explained, Her eyes twinkling with mischief as a jolly smile spread across her face. She was eager to help Rio find the perfect gift for his wife, but there was a bonus motivation driving her actions. She wanted to impress the white-haired beauty whose permission she needed to win this boy.
Rio nodded thoughtfully, and asked, "That sounds perfect. Where can I find it?"
Eve spoke. "I know just the place, There's an underground world, It's where you will find the Star Rose Blossom, But the entrance to that world is blocked by the dangerous beasts.
But don't worry about that, I not only have the nature elemental affinity but also space, so I can open portals anywhere. I'll take you there myself."
The boy was delighted by her response, "Thanks, Eve."
She giggled as she leaned in closer to him, her hand resting on his chest. "Anything for my beloved partner"
The boy watched her as she was getting closer, Her fingers traced gentle circles on his chest.
She whispered, her breath tickling his ear, "You're stuck with me now, My dear Rio. And I promise I won't let you ever regret that you shared that kiss with me today, my precious."
After saying that, With a cheery smile on her face, she tapped her delicate fingers up to his chest, feeling the rapid beating of his heart beneath her touch.
