Alien Knights

Under the quiet night sky, Todd, who had finished his dinner, sat on the balcony on the second floor of the bedroom, looking at the starry sky above him without saying a word.

The sound of footsteps behind him made him sigh slightly, and asked, Is Aurora asleep?

Deirdre, who was only wearing a gauze pajamas, walked to Todd's side, squatted down, leaned her head on the latter's arm, and nodded slightly.

Under the night, after bathing, Deirdre perfectly presented the most attractive scene of a woman.

Her facial features are exquisite and beautiful, her charming figure is almost covered with thin clothing, and her eyes are somewhat confused and sad.

Tell me, how is your hometown better than this city?

Deirdre's question made Todd silent for a few seconds, and the latter finally gave a vague answer: The two are different.

Deirdre raised her head, with a bit of helplessness and pleading in her astonishingly beautiful posture: Then, the rumor I heard said that you plan to leave everything here and return to your original country, Is it true or not?

Todd looked into Deirdre's eyes and asked, Rachel told you all this?

No, that woman is too shrewd. Every word she says and every expression she shows has a special purpose. I can't believe her.

Hearing Deirdre's words, Todd was a little surprised.

In his impression, the relationship between Rachel and Deirdre should be very harmonious. After all, it was Rachel who insisted on keeping Deirdre by his side.

As if seeing Todd's doubts, Deirdre said faintly: Do you know why Rachel wanted to keep me? It was because of my supernatural ability—spirituality. If she died, I could take her away. Bring her soul into the soul space. As long as I am here, she will not worry about losing her soul, and this is where I am useful to her.

Todd caressed Deirdre's cheek: At least she saved you, that's a fact.

Do you think I'm a ungrateful woman? Deirdre grabbed Todd's hand, shaking her head and said, In the past, I was regarded as a cursed person, and my family didn't want to get close to me. I don't care about anything. But now, I have a husband, I have kids, and family is everything to me.

Deirdre stretched out her arms and hugged Todd tightly, her voice trembling slightly: You are the king of this country and the god of all things in the world. You don't need to go back to the old home at all, Here is everything you want, this is your real home! Your believers, your soldiers, me, and Aurora all need you...

Todd put his arms around Deirdre, hugged her in his arms, closed his eyes, and let out a long breath.

Inside the gate of the terrace, Evie leaned against the wall, hiding herself in the darkness, listening to the conversation not far away, her eyes could not stop the loneliness.

The next morning, the sun was shining directly on Todd's face. He stretched out after waking up from the big bed, and looked at Deirdre who was still sleeping next to him.

The quilt barely covered her most intimate position, and her undressed, flushed body was full of traces of crazy love.

Todd turned over lightly and got out of bed. He didn't ask for the servants, but found a set of clothes for himself, dressed neatly, and walked to the garden outside the bedroom.

Evie, wearing a light green hunting suit, was sitting in the small pavilion in the center of the garden, her long silver hair hanging down her side like a waterfall.

She turned her head and looked at Todd who was walking towards her, and the first thing she said was: You should spend more time with Aurora.

Todd sat across from Evie, nodded slightly and said, Recently, I have dealt with some important matters, and I really seldom go to accompany her.

Aurora is different from those ordinary children. No matter where she goes, the title Daughter of God surrounds her like a dazzling halo. When everyone looks at her, there is reverence and fear in their eyes, but These are not what Aurora wants to see at all.

Evie took a deep breath: Aurora is only three years old, and like those ordinary children, her favorite thing is to play and play games, not to sit on a high throne and accept the bows of mortals Worship.

Todd said helplessly: Maybe, I can ask someone to find some children of the right age from the city and come to the palace to accompany her.

Evie leaned forward, pointed at the top of her head, and raised her voice: Look at her here, and look at her back! Aurora was born special, unique, she is the daughter of the dragon god, and the lord of heaven descendants of her! Do you think any mortal child will have the guts to treat her as a friend?

Todd sighed.

Aurora's mother, Deirdre, put too much attention and pressure on this girl. She always asked Aurora to do the best in every aspect , only in this way can she conform to her identity.

Evie whispered distressedly: That girl has endured too many burdens that she shouldn't have to bear at her age.

Todd recalled that innocent little face in his mind, thought for a moment, and then said, Evie, I want to thank you, thank you for telling me this.

Evie shrugged: To be honest, sometimes I can understand Deirdre's feelings. If I can give birth to a daughter like Aurora, I will definitely train her like crazy and train her to be the strongest. Great Valkyrie.

Todd smiled and stood up, and said to Evie, A child of Aurora's age needs happiness, not suffering.

Evie watched Todd's leaving back, and suddenly shouted loudly: That's right! Don't forget! Tonight!

Todd turned his head and looked at Evie suspiciously.

The latter sat up straight, and said confidently: Remember! I gave up to Deirdre last night, but you belong to me tonight!

Todd grinned.

Walking into the corridor of the apse of Muxi Palace, Todd heard a melodious sound of a piano floating from the air.

Pushing open the door of the living room at the end of the apse, Aurora was sitting on the piano bench with a sad face, awkwardly playing the harp in front of her.

Seeing Todd's arrival, Aurora's eyes lit up, and she shouted, Father!

The female musicians and assistants who were in charge of teaching were so frightened that they knelt down on the ground when they saw the coming of the Holy King. Everyone was sweating profusely with their mouths open, but they couldn't even say the simplest greeting.

Aurora, pack your things, I'll take you to the city today!

Todd's words, to the daughter, are as precious and pleasant as the rain after a long drought.

Aurora kicked the harp down, shook the little dragon's tail behind her, grabbed Todd's sleeve, and ran out of the hall in a hurry.

The people who stayed behind looked at each other, but no one dared to speak out to stop them.

Half an hour later, Aurora put on her regular clothes, combed her hair behind her back, and tied two braids down her cheeks. A round pancake-shaped cloth cover made of fine linen covered her dragon horns, and a thick pleated skirt also hid the dragon's tail.

Bouncing around behind Todd, Aurora asked loudly, Dad, where are we going?

Todd stroked his chin and thought for a while, then said, Go to the port area with me first, there is a place, I want to show you.
