Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 468: Rainy Night

Not even hours ago, he wrote a quick letter of farewell to her, and now here she was, standing right in front of him. Was this how life wanted to play tricks on him?

Her body looked tense, her shoulders straight, her gaze drilling into his soul. She was beautiful, but her behavior made him realize something serious was going on.

A moment of silence passed, Emery opened his mouth and said.

"I am sorry, I thought you were… " Emery started while glancing around to search for Klea. As if listening to her mind, Gwen quickly said.

"If you're looking for her, she just left. She said something about preparing the ship for the journey."

From that answer, he could conclude Klea told her all about their plans tomorrow.

"I see… So, you have heard about it."

Emery swallowed, his throat suddenly feeling a bit dry from his shock, but he forced himself to ask her nonetheless. He walked closer to her, looked at her beautiful face with his most sincere stare and asked.

"So, have you decide… will you come along with me for the journey?"

Gwen looked into his eyes and nodded.

That little nod lifted a lot of weight off his shoulders. For the past few days, he couldn't stop thinking about it. Before Emery could say something, Gwen cut him off.

"I… I apologize for what I did back in Camelot…" She fidgeted and looked away, clearly regretful at what she had done.

"No need to apologize," Emery soothed her and said, before giving her a sincere smile. "What is important is that you are here now."

His words of affirmation made her smile too, the awkward feeling in the room was quickly dispelled.

But, now that he looked at her properly, he could still see something hidden beneath her smile, a little regret, or perhaps sadness, from her shining eyes. Maybe she was overwhelmed?

The realization hit him like a slap to the face.

From the moment he was chosen by the Magus Academy, he had treated his life here as some sort of 'second life', where he would be resting until his 'main life' in the academy resumed. For Gwen, who lacked such a luxury, her decision to leave the country that has been her home since she could remember to see the land beyond the sea was a big leap.

"I-, no, I'm fine, Emery."

Gwen moved her left hand and let her fingers intertwine with Emery's left hand, while she stared at his eyes and used her right hand to pull Emery closer to her. Her body felt warm and soft, a feeling he had always looked forward to.

As he leaned down, Gwen put her lips onto his. Her kiss was soft, like a warm ember that ignited the desire in his heart. No words were needed, as their feelings beat as one.

When their lips separated, they were both out of breath...

He took a quick glance at the window and saw the skies quickly darken as night came, accompanied by the clap of thunder. The pitter-patter of raindrops started to hit the ground like the skies themselves were weeping for them.

Emery pulled away from her and was about to approach the window, but Gwen refused to let go of his hand. She pulled him closer.

She pulled him through the hallways and, surprisingly, she stopped right in front of the door leading to the bedroom.

With her hands still holding him tight, she spoke, her voice quivering, unwilling to let him go.

It was a cute bravado. She was so brave, but even with all that, she still couldn't truly bring herself to look him in the eyes.

"Will you… stay… with me… tonight?"

Emery's heart started to beat faster, he quickly realized what Gwen was asking and tried to calm himself down. It's one of those moments where he definitely couldn't lose his resolve.

With his free hand, he opened the door, while Gwen pulled him towards the bed.

He had always known that as timid as Gwen may seem, she was capable of bursts of bravery and perhaps this was one of those moments.

They stood next to the bed with shaky hands, she gently started to unbutton Emery's clothes.

Within moments, both of them were naked and the bright red of her face flared brighter. Her golden hair cascaded down her shoulders and covered one of her breasts, while her other hand cupped her private parts, as if trying to hide it.

Emery took a deep breath… staring at the goddess in front of him... he believed this was his cue to take the lead.

He raised his hand to touch the silky hair, before he gently carried her atop the soft bed. Slowly, he crawled on top of her.

The unceasing rain kept on pouring harder, the cold winds started to seep in a little, making the temperature of the room drop, but their bodies were ablaze, desire and love becoming a furnace to keep them warm.

Emery's eyes never left hers, his gaze brimming with adoration. Their faces were so close, he could smell the fragrant air that seemed to follow her wherever she went. His ragged breaths only made it worse, or perhaps, better.

Unable to stand it, he kissed her soft lips once more, playfully nibbled at her lower lip.

He started to trace kisses from her lips down to her neck and gently returned to her ear.

In response, Gwen let out a soft moan, almost inaudible from the pouring rain.

Emery wonders if he did it right, but he can't just suddenly ask her about it.

When he was about to slow down, she gripped his back, her fingernails digging down in his back.

He did it gently, very gently and she started to quiver with desire.

Her arousal climaxed, while she gripped Emery as he went down on her breasts

Emery started to become erect, it didn't take long for both of them to become fully aroused.

He was as inexperienced as her about this, hence he started really gently, as he slowly pushed inside bit by bit, but he still could feel as her body trembled in slight pain.

Concerned, he decided to try and pull out, but Gwen moaned and pulled him down. Between breaths, she could barely speak.

"Please… don't stop,"

No man would reject a woman after such a request and Emery wasn't about to be the first.

That night, their song of love filled the empty mansion halls.
