"It just so happens that His Majesty and the others are here. What if we eat together?" Gaia interrupted Argio's words quickly by making a suggestion with a big smile.

"no need. I'm not very full." 

Rahid then went from there and Gaia just kept silent while staring at the back that was getting away then without despair, Gaia glanced at Rasila. 

"How do I sneak into His Majesty's room?" tanya Gaia who was immediately rewarded with shock by the others.

...***...

Rahid throws and tramples the newspaper about Gaia and Juan. His taste for dinner had been gone since noon and now he was just confined to the room while sleeping on his back in the bed, staring bitterly at the dark ceiling of the room because only a candle is illuminated.

But, suddenly the door of his room was knocked when he believed he had told the butler to forbid anyone to disturb. 

"Don't bother me, get out of there." 

Rahid gives an outside intrusion, but as if to send his life, people out there keep knocking on the door without explaining who he is. Unable to endure any more patience, Rahid immediately opened the door in a daze and found the maid bowed deeply, as if her head had been hit by a boulder.

"Servant doesn't know sop—" 

Rahid's words came to a halt as the servant's hands pushed him in, entered and closed the door after turning the key.

"Stop avoiding me, we need to talk, Rahid." 

A pair of Rahid's eyes glared at the waiter puffing up and looking at him full of decisiveness, it was Gaia disguised as a female servant. 

"How dare you sneak into Raj—'s room" 

Gaia immediately hugged Rahid tightly, as if if relaxing the hug for a second then the man would instantly leave and avoid her again.

"I don't like Haetric, not at all in this life. So, don't be willing to tell me to be with Haetric after you've made a sacrifice 100 times in front of my eyes! I love you, Rahid!"

All over Rahid's body rigidly heard the words of the woman who made it frustrating lately. While breaking into tears, Gaia blocks out Rahid's powerful sleeping pajamas.

"You keep blaming yourself for my century of sleep and then making deals with the gods to wake me up. I'm always with you, trying to remember who the man who suffered so much from everyone around me then without giving up you stabbed your heart with a dagger and drowned in the sacrificial pond many times!" Gaia hits Rahid's left chest in anger.

Rahid is still digesting every sentence of Gaia that he thinks makes no sense. How could that woman know everything? Is it from Sain? 

"My soul is always around you, watching you. But after waking up you ignored me instead, avoiding me even seeming indifferent!" 

Terjawab. Rahid believes this sounds absurd but everything around him is beyond reason and what Gaia explains is true. Rahid's heart beat fast and tears poured from both eyes followed by his two big hands raised to carry Gaia in his arms. 

In a close embrace of Rahid, Gaia could feel the man's emotions overflowing against her. The cry without a sound, then the longing that he had endured for several weeks when Gaia had awakened from eternal sleep was channeled indefinitely.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry, right, me." 

The man's heavy voice trembled and Gaia no longer launched emotional words as there was now anything more sentimental than her. 

"I can't let you go. I thought you loved Haetric because you had kissed in the woods while hunting that time, so I thought I should let you go if I was the only one with that feeling." 

Gaia pushed slightly Rahid's body, seeing the trail of tears on the tyrant's face. The face that is always sad and full of criticism is softened and clear, Gaia admitted that at this time Rahid is very adorable.

Gaia laughed a little and then cupped Rahid's sturdy jaw. "How can I marry her when I express feelings for you. Ah, but it depends on your answer. If you don't accept me, maybe I'll consider my relationship with him." 

Gaia commented on the thin smile, trying to tease Rahid who immediately knitted her eyebrows and caught both of her hands. "No! I'll marry you even if I do now. Then should we go see the priest now?" 

Gaia panicked and immediately blocked Rahid who was about to pull her out together. "W-we can do it, but not now." 

Rahid then fell silent and glanced at the bed, leading Gaia to sit there. 

"So when should we do it?" ask Rahid.

Gaia. Rahid was too hasty when they had just cleared up the misunderstanding. 

"Ah, don't forget that just yet. Now let me do something to you." Rahid framed Gaia's face with both her big hands.

Gaia blinked twice but she understood what happened next when Rahid slightly tilted her head and pursed her lips, giving a soft, wet sweep over her dry lips.

"Welcome back, Gaia." Rahid smiled after taking off the short pangutan.

...***...

The celebration of the formation of the state has been held festively both in the palace and outside the palace. Along the streets in urban areas have been decorated in such a way, the traders open the stall so that the smell of food is out. 

Morning was bright and scorching but did not dampen everyone's happiness. The witches also enlivened by showing their magic power, attracting a large audience.

On the other hand, the coronation of Haetric as Duke who succeeded Duke Agneto has been announced. Everyone agreed to it and the most thrilling one was when Gaia came forward to receive the award for her services in saving everyone. 

Rahid who was wearing the official clothes of a king stood gallantly on the podium covered in red carpet. Her golden red robes were so majestic and luxurious that when Gaia climbed the stairs, Rahid had been waiting for her there. 

However, the badge that had been prepared was not pinned. Gaia and everyone were confused, but suddenly Rahid grabbed Gaia's right hand and landed a kiss on the back of the woman's hand. 

Gaia widened her eyes as well as everything, especially when Rahid took her to stand parallel while clasping each other's hands.

"I can't leave my partner's seat empty for too long and I think it's time to think of a successor. But of all that, I want to say that I chose Lady Gaia as my partner because I love her, and certainly no doubt how she acted to protect us all, I don't think she's the only one who deserves to be empress in this kingdom." 

After Rahid's words were finished, calmness broke out changing the happy cry of all the nobles then some people ran out to tell the king's statement to everyone out there. 

Like a wind that blows very fast, the statement propagated in some time until outside the palace even the noise began to resonate, welcoming the king's decision with joy.

"You're doing it here?" Gaia hissed but Rahid just turned her head while smiling haughtily.

"You're too popular. I think this way all the men who are after you will realize that you already have." Rahid then landed a light peck on Gaia's cheek that was already red.
