507 THE ELDERS

"Yes." Xiao Tianyao replied directly without missing a beat.

Senja lifted her head and looked at the beautiful man before her eyes intently. "Really?" She asked incredulously.

"You had told me about your vision, I think there is no difference between the two."

**Oh, he is totally right! Why I didn't think that way? Stupid Senja!** She chided and wanted to facepalms herself for over thinking things.

"So, what did you see now?" Xiao Tianyao swiftly put Senja in his laps and leaned his back against one of the pillars of the bed, playing with her hair that became a habit for him.

"… I saw you die." Senja buried her face on the crook of his shoulder, hiding her tears as the scary image flew her head once again.

**Damn it! Why I have to be reminded about this again and again?!** She chided herself as she couldn't help to feel the same sorrow.

Meanwhile, upon hearing Senja's curt explanation, Xiao Tianyao was able to put the remaining pieces of the rest of the story and Senja weird behavior seemed acceptable for him now.

There was a silence as Senja's sobbing sound was the only one voice that could be heard inside the quiet tent. In the other hand Xiao Tianyao occasionally kissed her forehead to calm her down while hugged her tightly in his arms.

"… So, what do you think I should do?" Xiao Tianyao asked after Senja's sobbing sound has ceased down.

"Do you believe me?"

"Why shouldn't I? I am not an immortal, I could die as well." Xiao Tianyao brought her hands to his lips and kissed her fingers tenderly, his action made Senja shivered in delight. "I had not trusted you and I regret it."

The only moment when Xiao Tianyao didn't trust her was when he regained his memory about Luna back.

"I am sorry, I never want to hurt you." He said earnestly. There was laced of sadness in his tone when he apologized for what he had done toward her.

"I know, you will never hurt me." And Senja answered in the same way she had responded.

"No, I did hurt you." Xiao Tianyao said firmly, resting his chin on the top of her head. "So, what would happen?"

When Senja was about to answer his question, suddenly Xiao Tianyao's body turned tense. He reached the apple on the tray on the bedside table and threw it with so much force toward the entrance of the tent.

The red apple lunged across the space inside the tent and landed heavily to the object behind the curtain. Along with a sharp whack sound, a loud growled of anguish could be heard.

Senja knew who was the person behind the curtain that was about to enter the tent without announcing his presence.

She let out a soft chuckle when she watched Xiao Tianyao displeased expression.

"Tianyao! Do you want to kill me!?" Utara annoyed voice traveled inside the room. From the sound of his complain, it seemed the apple had collided with a certain spot on his face.

"I will if you dare to take another step inside." Xiao Tianyao was eyeing Senja who was still naked with her shoulder was in full display. "What do you want!?" He asked impatiently with a hint of vexed. He wanted Utara to scram right at that instant.

"The elders knew that Senja is here, the three of them wanted to meet her. Now they are waiting on the tent with Xiao Jun." Utara yelled and glared at the closed curtains after he said his pieces, he wisely retreated. "I will go now."
