Chapter 454: Resting
The next day, Dani and Abel prepared to travel back to Valcrez. After saying her goodbyes to her parents and brother, as usual, Abel turned into his mist form and carried her away. Thankfully, she didn’t feel anything else despite the speed at which they were traveling, and they both remained silent as they let the scenery pass them by.
With nothing else going on, Dani couldn’t help but think of what they could do at the moment. Judging by how quickly they were going, they could actually take their time and maybe see the sights. It wouldn’t be for a while until she would find herself back in Ebodia, after all, and Abel would probably appreciate being in a different kingdom for a bit longer. Although, that wasn’t what Dani thought would happen. They still had a lot of responsibilities to do back home, and she really wanted to just be doing nothing while her Queen and the rest of her fellows were all busy with their tasks.
"I’m tired, wife... Maybe we can do something else in the meantime..."
However, it would seem that wasn’t going to happen.
"How are you tired?" Dani questioned with a raised brow. "We haven’t even been gone for a full hour."
"It’s not as easy as it sounds flying around, you know," Abel’s voice chuckled around her. "Besides, we can spend some time together right now while we’re still far from home like this."
Dani couldn’t help the skip in her heartbeat at the way her husband’s voice sounded around her. She knew she shouldn’t feel like this, especially since this wasn’t the first time she had heard from him while he was in his mist form, but the way he sounded so sincere with her... It almost made her want to just give up on his obvious bluff.
Still, that wasn’t what was going to happen. At least, not without a fight.
"Is that so?" she questioned. "I remember you doing the exact same trip we’re doing right now in just a single day."
