Chapter 116 Kissing The Queen Of Heaven
Hugo looked at Thalia. Confusion was evident in his eyes. His mouth was parted apart, taking a step backward.
"Who is she?" He couldn't refrain himself from asking.
"That is Lumina," Thalia answered with a smile on her face. "Do you see her eyes?" she raised her hands, pointing at the woman.
"Yeah…"
"Out of all the gods living here, she's the only one who has that kind of eyes." Thalia paused for a while. She swayed her hands to the side, making them go back to the room where Hugo woke up earlier.
"You can continue what you were saying now." Hugo chuckled as he went closer to the bed, sitting on top of them.
"Well, as I was saying, Lumina has a pair of magical eyes where she could see prophecies about the world." She uttered.
"Why does it look like she was locked up in that room? Even her clothes looked old." Hugo squinted his eyes, doubting Thalia.
'Are they mistreating her here?' He curiously asked himself.
Thalia rolled her eyes. She swayed her hands, creating a circle-like pattern. A golden chair that looked shiny and expensive suddenly appeared behind her back. Smiling widely, she sat on it.
"Do you really need to have that every time?" His forehead creased when he saw how Thalia made herself comfortable.
"Of course," she shrugged her shoulders.
"What about you answer my question first?" Hugo answered back. He looked at Thalia straight in her eyes after raising his right eyebrows.
Thalia glared at Hugo. "How dare you speak to me like that!" she clapped her fingers.
A dark cloud appeared on top of Hugo's head instantly. He shook his head when he felt that his body was getting wet from the rain. When Abigail clapped her hand for the second time, thunder sounded that even Hugo, who was being chill, duck his head when he saw that a flash of lightning will strike his head.
"Thalia!"
Thalia laughed out loud, seeing how scared Hugo was.
Hugo looked unbelievably at her.
"Are you a masochist?"
"What?" Thalia looked at him beyond belief.
"I am the queen of heaven, not that." She answered, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Well, I was just asking." Hugo giggled. "How about we get back into the topic now?" he scoffed.
"Chill human," Thalia let out a laugh before answering.
"Lumina choose to be like that from the start..." Thalia started off, recalling the first time that she saw Lumina. She remembered that she was wandering about the mortal world. It was when she was still the newly crowned queen. The time when she would secretly leave heaven since she missed the mortal world.
When she was traveling in the forest, she saw Lumina, almost lifeless, in the woods. When her hand touched Lumina's body, her body glowed the same as with eyes. She spat a few words that did not make sense to Thalia at first.
Out of pity, she chooses to bring Lumina to heaven, dressing her up in fine clothes. When the woman woke up, she asked Thalia about where they were.
That's when she knew that Lumina was blind since birth.
"So, how come she became a god if she was from our world?" Hugo's interest was piqued.
"Well, only people who had the power of a god can stay here in heaven for so long," The corner of Thalia's lips rose up as she looked at Hugo.
"Huh? Then what about me?"
"I called you here and you didn't even stay here for a day!" Thalia answered, stomping her feet to the ground at Hugo's question.
"That makes sense," Hugo scratched the back of his head. He tried looking at Thalia to read her mind.
'I should not let Hugo know about what happened,' Thalia thought as she looked at Hugo, who was eyeing her intently.
"What happened that you can't tell me about it?" Hugo's forehead formed a straight line as he looked at Thalia.
Thalia gasped loudly. Her eyes were almost bulging out from Hugo's sudden words. "Can you hear what I am thinking?" she stood up from her seat, going closer to Hugo to hurry.
"Well… Yeah?" Hugo was unsure whether he should say the truth to Thalia. But when he remembered that she could read his mind easily, then he just decided to tell the truth.
"How come that is possible?" Thalia became speechless at what Hugo revealed.
She was the queen of Heaven! She shouldn't get affected by powers that came from a mortal being.
"Why is there something wrong?" Hugo asked when he saw the shocked expression of Thalia.
Thalia tilted her head to the side. "No." She firmly said, closing her eyes so she could protect her mind from being read.
When Hugo saw what Thalia was doing, he looked at her again, trying to use his powers to see what was wrong. But when he tried to use his powers for the second time, it doesn't work on Thalia anymore.
'it seems like she did something so that I won't read her mind.' He stated. He laughed as he shook his head.
Thalia, whose heartbeat suddenly turned faster, looked at Hugo. She smiled, trying to hide her worries away from Hugo.
"You should go back now. The people in the mortal world have been eagerly waiting for you to wake up." She announced.
"Huh? What's with the sudden?" Hugo was puzzled about Thalia's words. He stood up and went directly in front of her.
"Why are you pushing me away?" he breathed out as he leaned closer to her.
Thalia's eyes slightly widened when she saw the little distance between her and Hugo's face. She swallowed hard, but she didn't let it be a distraction for her.
"Well, did you know that an hour of stay here is equivalent to four hours in the mortal world?" She raised her brows, looking at Hugo. She didn't take a step back, nor removed her face away from him.
"So?" Hugo stated.
"And you have been here for 50 minutes already," Thalia responded, expecting that Hugo would fathom what she was trying to say.
"Well then, let me stay here for 10 minutes more." Hugo grinned. He placed his hand behind Thalia's back, he pushed her a little, making her sit on her golden chair without escape."
"What are you trying to do?" Thalia fearlessly questioned Hugo. There was no point in being scared since she holds the most power in this place. She was only second to the Ancestral God who has created everything.
"Well, I told you earlier, I won't do things that you did not like." His grin became wider.
His free hand touched Thalia's jawline, caressing it as if it was a delicate glass. He angled it to the side, without leaving his eyes on her.
It was as if Thalia was possessed by Hugo's eyes that she couldn't do anything.
The only thing that she could remember was when their lips touched each other. Her mouth opened when she could feel Hugo's lips moving as if it was enticing her lips to the same.
Unknown to her, her mouth started to follow Hugo's lips, matching his speed and intensity. She could feel her heart bursting in her chest as she let their lips play as if they have known each other for so long.
When she felt that there was a wet and soft thing entering her mouth, her eyes widened. She had just realized what she was doing, so the only thing that she could do was push Hugo's body with full force so he could get away.
He instinctively touched her lips, which were now wet from Hugo's saliva and his tongue.
'I must be out of my mind for a moment." She clenched her fist as she duck her head down trying to hide her embarrassment.
She was the queen of heaven, and yet she was doing these immoral things?
Especially to a guy whose age was little compared to her?
Hugo, who was thrown out for a second, fixed his clothes and the way he stood up. The grin on his lips appeared once again.
"I told you, you will like it."
Thalia swayed her hands to the side as their lips parted away from each other. Her face was pinkish and before Hugo could even see it, she made sure that he will already be back in his own world.
She stood up, walking from side to side, trying to rethink the decisions that she had made.
"This is not me…" she uttered in a low voice that it almost turned into a whisper.
She stood up, trying to fix her composure. She coughs when she felt that there was a big lump on her throat.
"I should not let that happen again." She determinedly reminded herself as she left the room with her head, held up high.
But as people say, things that were planned do not go as you wish.
