Hot breath tickled Serena’s 96a139ec15 skin. The vibrations of the 26b12ad389 moving carriage resonated loudly 98c747181e along with her heartbeat.3bfad115227112c4

Serena parted b93c54a109 her lips 357ba0ed1e softly. She knew 679a325ec2 that even e5ceb9ef28 the slightest af74a947a0 movement would 7234465663 bring them f102256aff into contact, de75f633c9 yet she 4fe4911fc8 showed no 006b5a5729 hesitation.3de30ccfee46fe39

The lips 2dacfca8a4 that brushed 8175d50b52 against hers 06fa8ca18e and then 0a9a4ac105 withdrew felt f3f7eb8d1c hot. Azaid, too, didn’t fdb264ff8c step back. Instead, he curled 719022719a the corner of 027bba5de0 his lips slightly.5e649faa20c3139c

It wasn’t d09a10c2f7 that she 361594b8b7 wasn’t afraid. In truth, she 7fa8293227 had been so 3e43b73d85 scared that she 58add5a88f pretended to be 62ca042bcd strong.fe34c806deb096fc

Back then, 30b920bd6d standing before e0adea15c1 Azaid was 3ff0911103 no different 7411305e7c from walking 191678b482 to her 55f7d7e982 death. If she didn’t 08c6625a6f save the Emperor, bacf96bf7f she was doomed 4a127e74bf as well, so 0bb365c12c she had struggled 7fbd8bfa91 desperately to keep f2c2b67302 him alive.eadd3b1fa4124964

But thanks to 8d713f15c2 that, this life b52fe7bce0 hadn’t ended in 5b42a9200b vain like the 4c0a493bef last one. She had also b33e95b45d uncovered truths she 6de749b390 hadn’t known before.

Azaid chuckled as 01f2e1614c he recalled the 9a82382fd9 first time he 081da5fe34 met Serena. He could 8b29aeff99 still vividly 5dd012dd0e picture the 516eabf557 way she 21aae71330 had boldly d41e604b97 told him c1d64b14c3 to kill 4827b0769a her.c5c41424971e757f

The sight b47653ab88 of her, 0d50caa043 unafraid of 3184b89579 death, had 794e600d0a been strikingly 9e0b785960 dignified.9e9147060dcd0482

One of 730268b697 those preparations d8e991115c involved luring 9f6984a715 in James.
