Venus touched the tomb of the king. Flashes of the king's past entered her mind. She didn't say a word as she analyzed everything. Queen Maryella gave her space to think. "I want to talk to your daughter," she said. The queen of the water world nodded, and they went back to the palace.
The king hugged her when he saw her. He instantly felt something was bothering her when he touched her. "I am always here, gughma," he murmured as he kissed her and caressed her stomach. "I know, and thank you, babe," she said.
"Where are your brother and the princess?" she asked. Damoen smirked. "They sneaked out, and I let them," he answered.
They waited in the garden, where Queen Maryella prepared dinner for them. When the two arrived, Princess Aryella was flushed, and Prince Bueng had this satisfied look on his face. Asmoed joined them when she mentioned peanut butter. She wanted the queen to taste the peanut butter, which the demon prince was crazy about.
