Chapter 185: Back Home
Alexandra called for Maximus a couple more times, but he was not waking up. She checked his heartbeat and it was not bad considering that he is recovering from a serious injury to his chest.
Alexandra was not worried in the least bit. She knew he will be fine in due time. The Creator has promised her offspring, and he is her husband. He should be fine for her to have offspring.
She kissed his cheek, and hugging him, asked Rufus to take her back home. She opened a portal to enable a fast journey. Rufus, the loyal steed, took her where she wanted to be.
Alexandra’s heart filled with glee and a beautiful smile bloomed on her face as she reached the place her heart calls home. It was not the grand halls she grew up in as Arimelda—it is that old stone house in the middle of a farm.
[He has restored it!]
Alexandra kissed Maximus’ cheeks. The last time she was here, the entire place looked dark, gloomy, and dry. But now, the house was not dilapidated. It was repaired and was shining in its old glory. The oak tree by the house now housed a swing, like it used to do. Around the house, there were various flowering plants.
She could see some horses in a shed and plow. Some men were working on the lands around the house. Alexandra could understand that they are preparing for sowing. Her eyes watered as she took in the scent of the fertile soil.
[Everything is returning to how it once was!]
Rufus stopped by the door to the house. The men around helped her in bringing Maximus inside. She didn’t know who these men were. They were not speaking the language of Lethusia or Deberia, but they knew Maximus.
They spoke a variant of the Lathusian language and Alexandra could understand that they are calling Maximus their "boss". She didn’t mind those men. In a way, them not knowing who Maximus truly is, is good for her. She asked them to help lay him on the bed.
