Published at 15th of February 2023 05:21:47 AM
The young maiden didn't know Rio was hugging her because he was worried about the possible future and not the tragic past.
Rio spend a few hours in this state before he calmed down.
He sat up on the bed and gazed towards the window in thin air as if thinking something.
Lia climb down from the bed to draw the curtains of the windows as Rio was staring at the closed one.
He broke from his contemplation when bright light invaded his eyes.
Sun was glistening in the clear sky. Night had already passed while he was going through a major event.
"What are you thinking?" Lia asked with a tender voice while turning around.
"Don't you wanna know who is this Layla?" He asked with a bittersweet smile.
"I do but I don't want you to go through the same nightmare again while telling me. Your wife isn't that selfish." A doting voice escaped Lia's cherry-like lips.
Rio sighed hearing her words.
"Don't worry about that. This is something you should know." He said in a resolute voice.
Lia walked to him and sat opposite the side of the bed to wait for Rio to continue.
"After I consumed your sweet blood, a few notifications rang in my mind before I lost consciousness. When I opened my eyes I was in front of a glowing figure in a temple." Rio started recounting everything that happened.
He told her how there was only ten future where she survived. Lia could feel his dejection when he told her about how he saw her taking their last breath in his embrace.
The second part, about Layla's story, was narrated in a cold voice but Lia was able to detect the fine detail in his emotional fluctuation.
Her face was enveloped in a chilly expression by the end of the story.
Rio was wondering if this was because of his past with Layla.
"How could he...?" A murderous intent flickered in her voice.
"Let's forget about him for now. He wouldn't dare to touch me while I'm with the Havenglow family." Rio said in a nonchalant voice.
Lia didn't say anything but her heart was still in chaos. She wanted to cut that old man into thousand pieces for touching her Rio.
After some time passed and she calmed down, Rio asked, "Are you not worried if I still care about Layla more than you?"
"I don't want to make it difficult for you by asking questions like who would a person love more, their mother or their daughter. Some questions can not be answered.
Also, If that old man didn't come between the childhood sweethearts. You and Layla would've been still together and I would have become a Villain for forcing our marriage on you." She spoke in a bitter voice as she looked downhearted while saying the last sentence.
"Maybe it's all planned by heaven." He said with a bittersweet smile.
He continued, "But let me confess something. There are two people who I cherish in my heart, you and her. You both have been nice to me and loved this nobody dearly.
But I can't deny one thing that Layla never came to find me because she couldn't go against her adopted grandfather while my beautiful wife Lia has even gone against her father and the whole asura race just to hide my secrets.
How can I love another girl more than my Wife whose single thought flutters my heart."
"You don't have to butter me," She said with a pout and a hint of redness around her cheeks.
"But I'm not buttering you. This young man is speaking facts." He said with a proud smile.
They talked a little more before Lia went downstairs.
Rio checked the notifications that he had received after collapsing. There were even new notifications that Lia hadn't seen when she was inspecting him.

"Sealed Innate talent?" He frowned when Rio saw these words.
He never imagined his innate talent was sealed. Rio always thought he was without any Innate talent. It even became the reason for the Mailon family to break the engagement and blame it on the boy for having no innate talent.
He opened his profile to check for new information.
