(Alpha Star System- Planet Gaia)

(N'rean City- Central Plaza)

"Here you go babe…" Cleo said sweetly as she handed a frozen treat over to her girlfriend who was looking off into the distance.

The central plaza was located in the middle of N'rean city, and it was a large open square with a magnificent fountain constructed in the center.

This fountain had an enormous statue of a knight standing above a faceless warrior who bled out from his neck.

Of course, it wasn't actual blood that flowed out but rather crystal-clear water that sparkled under the sunlight.

It was said that tossing a coin inside the fountain's waters would grant a wish to the owner of the coin.

A silly rumor but judging from the number of tourists mulling around the fountain… it was clearly a decent source of wealth for the city council.

"Thanks," Sophie whispered softly as she reached out her hand to take the frozen red popsicle from Cleo's fingers.

She leaned in closer and captured her girlfriend's lips in a soft intimate kiss that lingered on for what seemed like eternity.

A few hours had passed since their argument at the bookstore and now the mood was much warmer than before.

Sophie reluctantly allowed Cleo to buy her random stuff as they wandered through the city and while it felt a bit strange.

It was a good feeling to be pampered by your lover.

"Should we sit down?" Cleo suggested as she pointed at a bench that was located beneath the shade of a nearby tree.

"Sure… that sounds like a great idea," Sophie replied with a soft smile as she gently held Cleo's hand.

She led her girlfriend over to the wooden bench and the two girls sat down in the shade. Sophie held the popsicle to her lips and casually took a bite.

Her sharpened fangs easily tore through the ice and a sweet sugary taste spread inside her mouth.

Chomp!

The hybrid girl hummed softly in pleasure as she quickly finished off the treat in a couple of quick bites.

It wasn't exactly how the popsicle was supposed to be eaten but Sophie did not have any complaints.

The sun was now beginning to drift towards the horizon and warm orange rays of light fell down on the central plaza.

"Do you want to read your new book?" Sophie asked casually as she reached into her storage bag and took out one of the s.

Cleo nodded her head, so Sophie handed her a with the title 'The Brave Alpha And Her Fiery Omega'.

She quickly glanced at the cover and saw that it featured a heroic looking muscular woman with her arms around a delicate beautiful man.

Huh… her girlfriend really did like those strange romance s…

Cleo took the book from her hand and opened the first page. She leaned against Sophie's shoulder as she began to read quietly.

Sophie relaxed under the shade of the tree and enjoyed this moment of peace and quiet as her girlfriend read her book.

Sometimes quiet company was just what one needed on a lazy afternoon like today.

The hybrid girl let out a light sigh as she stretched out her arms and pulled Cleo a little bit closer.

It still felt strange to be back. Even after all these months there were times when Sophie could not believe that she had returned from the Unova Syndicate.

When she thought about her life and death encounters on those foreign planets, a chill ran down the hybrid girl's spine.

There was no one who was not afraid of death and Sophie was no exception.

In fact, she was even more desperate to survive since she wanted to see her family and friends again.

Sophie's pointed ears tilted slightly as she heard a couple voices coming from the fountain that seemed quite argumentative.

It was probably not polite to do so but Sophie could not help using her enhanced vision and hearing to get a better look at the situation.

She turned towards the fountain and saw two men fiercely glaring at each other while a third man stood at the side with a helpless expression on his face.

"Oliver you son of a bitch! What did you use to threaten Nathan to go on a date with you? You know that he loves me!"

"Nothing! Nathan had been my secret lover for years! We were together before you and we will be together long after you…"

"So just back off Adrian! Why would Nathan choose to be with a mere baron?"

Sophie gasped in shock as she heard the details about this scandalous affair. Apparently the two men Adrian and Oliver were competing for the affection of the third man Nathan.

Nathan was a completely ordinary looking man as well, so Sophie was impressed by his ability to fish in multiple ponds.

Just as it looked as though the two men were about to come to blows, another man rushed over wearing an expensive looking suit.

"Nathan my love! I have come to rescue you!" this new man shouted as he ran over and grabbed Nathan by the hand.

Sophie watched in complete disbelief as the man picked up Nathan in a princess carry and ran away.

Oliver and Adrian quickly followed the pair and the group of men soon disappeared into the inner regions of the city.

Sophie had to resist the urge to get up and see how the situation unfolded.

She may not be the biggest fan of romance, but she was a huge fan of drama!

"Cleo! Cleo!" Sophie excitedly whispered as she nudged her girlfriend's shoulder. The princess raised her eyes from her book and Sophie leaned in closer to speak in her ear.

"You won't believe what I just saw!"

A few minutes later, Sophie had explained the unbelieving story to Cleo who listened carefully to the twists and turns.

"Nathan… why is that name familiar…" Cleo muttered to herself.

She could have sworn that she had heard that name before, but she just could not remember where or when.

"Anyways… do you want to get something to eat before we head back to the hotel?" Sophie asked casually as she stood up from the bench.

The pair where currently staying in a five-star hotel in N'rean city. Sophie had booked a large suite and was looking forward to spending the night and doing some naughty things with Cleo.

It was possible to take a hovercar back to the Peterlor estate, but Sophie wanted to spend some private time with her girlfriend.

"Okay! Where did you have in mind?" Cleo asked curiously as she grabbed Sophie hand and pulled herself up.

"Follow me…" Sophie said mysteriously as she began to walk in a certain direction.

The pair walked for about forty-five minutes through a few streets, back alleyways, and side passages until they arrived at a large restaurant.

This restaurant had thick wooden walls and was built in the shape of a treasure chest.

A gold-plated sign hung on the front door with the phrase 'The Golden Anchor' elegantly engraved on the sign.

Finely dressed men and women in luxurious outfits walked into the restaurant and were immediately greeted by the waiters who rushed over to serve them.

Sophie and Cleo were in relatively inexpensive clothing, but the hybrid girl still led her girlfriend into the restaurant with confidence.

"Good evening, ma'am… how may I help you today?" one of the waiters walked over and spoke politely.

He treated them just as well as the any other guest in the restaurant despite their noticeably out of place attire.

There were too many nobles with the strange habit of pretending to be poor so all the service members in the restaurant did not dare to take any chances.

It was impossible to know if the beggar wandering inside wearing nothing, but rags wasn't some mischievous rich second generation noble with too much time on their hands.
