~For my wholesome readers, there's an important message starting on the middle part. So you can skip the earlier ones but don't miss out the middle part!~

Selena's eyes widened in surprise. She never expected to hear him respond like that. The words she wanted to hear so much - he said it!

"I love you, too".

The words repeated over and over in her head. She didn't notice, tears already started falling from her eyes.

"Is this real? Am I not dreaming? D-did I hear you correctly?" Selena sobbed.

"Yes," Clavis nodded and with one of his hands, he caressed Selena's cheeks. "I understand it now - no, not understand, I … I feel it … here," he pointed on his chest. "It was … different. Not lust produced by hormones … or simply caring and liking which is also something processed and thought by the brain … I don't know how to describe it but … I feel it. Something beyond … Selena … I love you".

Selena cried harder. She got up to embrace Clavis. Clavis hugged her and kissed her in return. Their kiss was so sweet and emotional. Their hearts kept on beating together. Finally, the Ice Prince recognized love. They were both so happy that they felt elated. It's as if their hearts had become one. 

"I love you so much!" Selena confessed again when their lips parted. "You stupid ice block! Good thing it didn't take you long enough to figure that out".

Clavis chuckled. "You showered me with love everyday, how can I not feel it?"

"So you learned love because I loved you first?"

"Maybe? I never knew it until you made me feel it".

"I see … good thing I have a heart, ha-ha-ha!"

"Ha-ha-ha! And good thing I met you," Clavis confessed. "I'm … really glad I met you".

Selena's heart squeezed tight. "Me too, I'm very happy to have met you. Even if everything was not favourable, I'm very happy it led me to you".

Looking at each other's eyes, they smiled sweetly and resumed their emotional kiss. Clavis arms that wrapped around Selena's body moved down and held her buttocks once more to continue where they left off. Moving slowly, he thrusted in her again.

"Ahhhhh … hah … hah …," Selena moaned. She stopped kissing Clavis and leaned back, with her arms on the bed, supporting her body. She didn't want to restrict Clavis' movements.

Clavis lifted Selena's leg and parted them wider. He inched closer to her and with a sudden thrust, he had his way inside her. His slow movements grew faster and more aggressive. 

Selena shivered from excitement. She felt her insides throb more as Clavis' manhood went in and out of her. More fluids came out of her which only heightened the extreme pleasure she's already feeling. Each time Clavis pound on her, the slushy sounds her private part made, grew louder and louder.

Finally having their feelings in sync, Clavis felt even better. It was no longer just mere intercourse. They were making love. As his heart ran wild in his chest, he found himself thrusting harder and ramming his manhood deeper in Selena. The great pleasure he felt a moment ago seemed to have doubled or tripled … or maybe even more. It was extraordinary - no words could simply describe it.

"Aah … aah … aah …" they both moaned in unison.

Sweats trickled down as their bodies became hotter with each passing minute. 

Their movements became even wilder and faster. 

"Aghhh … Clavis … I'm … I'm …"

"Me, too … Selena … I'm …"

And with a final deep thrust, they both came together. 

"Aaaahhhh!" their minds went blank. All they could feel was immeasurable satisfaction and happiness.

Selena fell down on the bed as Clavis released a lot of his fluids inside her to the point that Selena felt it was too much. Indeed, it was too much already since they've been doing it for hours and Clavis kept on releasing inside her. When Clavis pulled out his manhood, his fluids came oozing out of Selena's private part, staining the bed sheets. Seeing it, Clavis chuckled.

"Hah … It seems … hahh … I enjoyed you too much," Clavis smirked.

"Yes you did … hahh," Selena panted. Her body kept on tingling. "Now … haah … I'm too exhausted to move … hahh. How can you even … hah … keep on standing?"

Clavis cleaned up the mess he made with his magic. Then, he joined her on the bed, laid beside her, and kissed her.

A moment of silence passed by as they tried to catch their breaths. When he finally recovered, Clavis suddenly thought of something.

"Love, huh?" Clavis pondered. "What if … that small torn part … was nothing but a space?"

He reminisced about the prophecy in the Book of Dawn.

"When the king sit on his throne,

The maiden shall be no more.

The king will have his queen,

With his righteous right hand,

He will rule the kingdom forevermore".

"Then … that means … there's a high possibility that the maiden … will become the queen? Right? She will no longer be a maiden since she'll be the queen!"

Once again, he reminisced about the earlier part of the prophecy as well.

"Oh king, oh king, why do you cry?

The king answered with tears in his eyes

'For the maiden lies lifeless in my arms'"

"The torn part after it - what if … instead of telling more on the king's heartbreak … it tells a message of love instead?" Clavis' eyes widened at his own realization. "Yes! Because it was weird. The first part mentioned the maiden dying … then she gets mentioned again on the lower part of the prophecy. Prophecies don't repeat themselves. If it mentioned someone dying on the earlier parts, then that person won't be mentioned again on the succeeding verses of the same prophecy … right?"

"Hmm? Clavis? What are you thinking?" Selena tilted her head.

"Ah, sorry. I just remembered a prophecy I was trying to decipher".

"What prophecy?" 

Clavis was about to tell her but he remembered seeing her crying when she visited the Forbidden Chamber before. 

"Hmmm … It was a prophecy about someone dying," Clavis decided to be vague about it. "But then, a part of the page was torn so the message was incomplete. On the lower part of the page, it mentioned the person again. So I thought it was weird why someone dying on the earlier part of the verse, was mentioned again on the latter part".

"I see. That is weird. What exactly does it say? Maybe my weird way of thinking things may help?" Selena chuckled.

"Ha-ha-ha! You're right. Maybe a different perspective might help," Clavis laughed with her. Then, with a serious tone, he asked, "Are you sure you want to hear it? You may not want to know who it refers to"

Selena's smile turned into worry. "It's not you, is it?"

"No, not me".

"Anyone in your family?"

"I don't think so".

"Anyone in my former house?"

Clavis shook his head.

"Then, that's fine -" Selena suddenly remembered Rania and her eyes widened. "It's not … Rania, is it?"

Clavis remained silent. Selena gasped.

"So you know that she's alive too?" 

"I've never seen her again after the banquet but a lot of prophecies talked about her. So I believe she's still alive".

Selena began to cry. Tears flooded from her eyes. 

"Then that means she's really alive!" Selena couldn't contain her happiness.

Clavis embraced her to comfort her. Selena's body trembled. It took her a couple of minutes before she calmed down.

"I'm so glad she's really alive. I heard her before in the Forbidden Chamber and I thought I was only hallucinating. Sniff … sniff …"

Clavis wiped her tears away.

"Wait … but you said she's gonna die? What does it say? That prophecy you're talking about?"

With furrowed brows, Clavis told her about the prophecy. 

When Clavis finished uttering the words, Selena's pink eyes glowed and turned golden!

As if someone possessed her, her whole body shined bright and she repeated the prophecy before him.

But this time … it was complete. 

The missing piece of the torn page was finally revealed!

"Oh king, oh king, why do you cry?

The king answered with tears in his eyes

'For the maiden lies lifeless in my arms'

Oh king, oh king, be strong and take heart!

For the Supreme is great and His counsel is just!

Listen to the words given to His chosen:

'When night meets day,

When dusk meets dawn,

In the beauty of the twilight, 

Perfection will come.

And out of the three,

The greatest will rise.

When the king sit on his throne,

The maiden shall be no more.

The king will have his queen,

With his righteous right hand,

He will rule the kingdom forevermore'"

Selena's body stopped glowing and her eyes went back to the way it was. With a large thump, she fell on the bed unconscious.

Clavis was appalled from the words he just heard. Tears flowed nonstop from his eyes.
