Chapter 467: Chapter 467: Acceptance
Her breath halted for a brief moment as Eren's lips continued their path, trailing down her neck with a tenderness she had never experienced before.
Each touch sent a shiver down her spine, her skin tingling with sensations she couldn't quite comprehend.
The Empress' mind was a whirlwind of emotions and affection that seemed to grow with each passing moment. Never in her life had she imagined feeling so vulnerable, yet so safe, all at once.
As Eren's lips brushed against the sensitive spot where her neck met her shoulder, a soft sigh escaped her lips. Her hands, which had been resting hesitantly on his shoulders, now pulled him closer, as if afraid he might vanish if she let go.
She didn't even realise as her nails started clawing on Eren's back, trying to hold him tight. Her voice was barely audible.
Eren paused, lifting his head to meet her eyes. In those beautiful eyes, he saw his own reflection. The Empress had truly accepted him.
The Empress felt a warmth in her chest, spreading through her entire body. It was as if the barriers that once separated them were disappearing.
Time seemed to stand still as they lay there, wrapped in each other's arms. The world outside ceased to exist, leaving only the two of them in their own private sanctuary.
For the first time in her life, she felt truly free where her mind didn't think about anything else but herself. She was free from the burdens of her lineage, free from the expectations of her people. All that mattered now was the man beside her, the man who had risked everything to stand by her side.
The Sea Dragon Empress and the Eren found solace in one another, their hearts beating as one. Their bloodlines were also in perfect sync as the shackles around the bloodline started breaking one after another.
It was a night that marked the beginning of a new chapter in their lives.
Eren gently kissed the Empress' forehead before moving down, gently removing her clothes to reveal her bare skin that looked completely flawless. It was as if even god had taken sweet time to craft her to such perfection.
He rubbed his forehead and slowly opened his eyes. It was as if he was still under the effect of hangover, feeling a throbbing pain in his head.
"I should've stockpiled some hangover drinks." He mumbled, feeling the throbbing pain only getting stronger. His eyes were barely able to focus. He couldn't even think straight, feeling slight pain in his back as well.
It was as if he had really put his waist to stress. He could understand the pain in his head but the pain in his waist was different. He had only been sitting during the evolution so he didn't understand why he felt pain there.
"What is this?" He soon came to a realizing, feeling something soft resting on his chest. He lowered his head and saw a fair hand resting in his bare chest.
"What?" He traced the arm and saw a woman lying next to him, without even a shred of clothes. Her head was resting on his arm which was being used as a pillow.
Eren's mind went completely blank when he saw the peacefully sleeping face of the woman. It was the Sea Dragon Empress.
Suddenly, he had a bad feeling about this. He looked down on himself and realised that he wasn't simply bare chested. He was completely naked.
Even the ground where they were sleeping, appeared to be filthy with various fluids lying there, mixed with each other.
Some of those fluids were even lying on the Sea Dragon Empress's body. It was on her belly, her chest and some traces could even be found on the corner of her lips.
As one of his arms was being used as a pillow, he used his other arm to rub his forehead, coming to a sudden realisation.
"So it wasn't a dream." He didn't know how to react to the realization. Even if he thought it was a dream, but he had truly done something that he couldn't take back.
"You are awake?" As if feeling Eren's movements, the Sea Dragon Empress also opened her eyes.
