Chapter 474: I am here

Along the way to the palace hall Senja could see that the war has ended seemingly. However there was still something unsettled in her heart. All of this was too suspicious, in spite of her uneasy feeling, Senja couldn't point out which part was wrong.

One of the Crescent Moon Members was pointing the palace hall in front of them before excused themselves to help their other fellow.

From afar, Senja saw the figure that she had missed the most. Warmth lingering in her heart when she saw him was fine. He was injured, because she caught a glimpse of the white bandage in his left arms, but overall he was fine.

Nothing could compare with the relieved that she felt right at this time, for a moment the uneasiness that she felt before was forgotten.

"I will wait here." Yun said in low voice.

Senja turned around as she heard him with frown in her face, in a second she forgot why they were here and the realization hit her hard.

It was a goodbye.

No matter how relieved she was and how happy Senja to meet Xiao Tianyao again, but it was a goodbye. This would be the last chance for her to see him and this realization didn't sit well with her.

"Can we" Senja stuttered, looking for a reason to prolong their stay. " Can we stay for a night?" Senja asked.

The sun almost set in the horizon and the smoke which covered the sky made the whole situation looked gloomier.

"Senja, I am so sorry my child." Yun shook his head with regret. He didn't want to separate this young girl from someone that she loved, but he couldn't wait for any longer time. He wanted to meet his woman so badly. It was selfish of him. But, if by being selfish he could meet Riana again, so be it.

Tears trickled down her face as she knew that she shouldn't act like this. If it wasn't for grandma Riana who sent her to this world, she wouldn't meet Xiao Tianyao.

But, probably that was a good thing so she would not suffer from the agony in her heart like this as if it was eating her own feeling alive.

Senja blinked her eyes rapidly to push back the following tears that wanted to fall from her dark brown eyes. She tried to think the happy moment when she finally could return, the things that she would do with her life after this, her brothers, her missions, her life.

But, nothing of them could encase her broken heart.

She missed him already even before the farewell leave her lips, even before she faced him and even when he was only a few meter away from her.

She missed him.

"I am sorry Senja to put you through this" Yun gave Senja a sympathetic squeezed on her shoulder, but all she could do was shaking her head.

Senja wanted to say that he didn't need to say sorry for her, it was her mission after all, it was her stupidity to have this feeling when she knew she wouldn't be able to stay, when she knew the moment like this would come. However, the words clogged inside her throat, wasn't able to leave her lips as another tears rolling down on her cheeks.

"Go meet him, I will be here." Yun said. He didn't have any intention to meet his disciple, Xiao Jun.

He had been long disinterested with all of this power struggled. So, he was simply wanted to meet Riana. He didn't care about the result of this war.

Senja heaved a deep breath and wiped the tears from her face harshly before stilled her heart to say her last words.

She staggered toward the palace hall, every step that she took it was like she was walking on a thorn, ripped her apart as all the memories flashed back right before her eyes.

When finally she was at the threshold of the palace hall, Xiao Jun was the first person who saw her as he was talking with Xiao Tianyao with his back facing her.

The shocked on his face was something to see as his eyes widened and he gasped loudly, this gestured made Xiao Tianyao turned his body to see what the things that made his brother petrified.

And when his eyes landed on Senja, he froze.

Senja approached him slowly, with face devoid from all emotion. It has been three months since the last time they met.

It could be counted as they proper encounter after that night when Xiao Tianyao brought her back to the northern fortress and Modama hypnotized her. They even didn't have time to talk with each other appropriately after their dispute about Luna.

Xiao Tianyao ran toward Senja and wrapped her in his arms, buried his face on the curve of her shoulder, savoring the warm from her body. Her small figure feeling so right against his, he didn't realize how much he missed his woman until she was right before his eyes.

"Senja! What are you doing here!?" Xiao Tianyao asked her harshly, his voice was laced with panic and longing as he felt Senja's body trembling and sobbing.

He didn't know how Senja was able to come inside the palace, but he was relieved Senja was here, safe in his arms. He missed her dearly.

He released her body and cupped her face while kissing her forehead, her cheeks, her nose and tasted the sweetness from her lips.

"What are you doing here? How can you come here?" Xiao Tianyao asked her again with a softer tone. His thumbs brushed the tears that coming from her beautiful eyes. He didn't know why she was crying.

He tilted her head, looking for any sign of injury. Put her in arm length before examined her body, when he found nothing, once again he sighed in relieved and hugged her tightly.

"What happened?" Xiao Tianyao whispered, running his hand on her hair and caressing her back tenderly while Senja buried her face on his chest. Crying.

Xiao Tianyao kept talking sweet words to calm her down, but it seemed nothing could cease the sadness in her heart and he didn't understand why she was crying so heartbroken like this.

Senja kept muttering 'I miss you', but now Xiao Tianyao was here, she should stop crying.

"I am here, I am here" He tried to coax her. "I will not going anywhere, I will be with you."
