Chapter 286: The Reunion Of Lovers

Warmth.

The feeling of tranquility.

Sophie opened her eyes and smiled gently as she saw the beautiful scenery along with the person who she loved.

She was currently lying down on a sandy beach under the shade of an enormous coconut tree.

The yellow sun shone brightly in the air and Sophie could feel the salty ocean breeze hitting her face.

The sounds of the roaring waves crashing against the shore along with the joyful cries of seagulls made the experience seem almost magical.

Sophie could not help but feel a sense of peace.

This was where she belonged.

A place with no fighting, no wars, and no responsibility. Just endless relaxation with nothing to do except enjoy each day and wait for the next.

"Did you have a good nap sleepyhead?" Cleo teased as she planted a soft kiss on Sophie's lips.

Sophie's eyes darkened with lust as she saw the beautiful princess with her flowing dark hair and piercing green eyes that sparkled with love.

She held Cleo's cheek lovingly and pushed her tongue into the princess' mouth while her hand slowly slid under her shirt.

"Naughty," Cleo blushed furiously and tried to move away.

Sophie gripped her arm firmly and roguishly pressed her lips continuously against Cloe's neck leaving only a long trail of hickeys.

"I've missed you," Sophie tearfully spoke as she held Cleo in her arms.

"The entire time I was stuck in the Unova Syndicate all I could think about was coming back home to see you and my family."

"What are you talking about?" Cleo asked in confusion. The princess looked at her lover with an expression of puzzlement.

"We haven't been separated…. This is the vacation we planned after the first semester ended."

Sophie frowned slightly as a sharp burst of pain tore through her mind. She clenched her head in agony as memories flowed in.

Yes… what was she talking about?

After the first semester ended, Cleo and she had decided to visit a vacation planet to spend the holidays together.

She hadn't even been to the Unova Syndicate before and why on earth would she even visit an interstellar faction that was hostile to the Earth Federation.

The painful feeling in her mind only went away once a few minutes had passed.

Cleo stood silently in the background as her girlfriend got up from the floor. Her eyes were lifeless and hollow until Sophie's attention shifted back to her.

"Yeah… I don't know what I was talking about before," Sophie chuckled as she held Cleo in both arms.

"Maybe we should go swimming together."

Cleo's enthusiastic expression seemed to falter for a moment and then the surroundings rapidly changed.

Sophie found herself in the middle of ocean wearing a thin two-piece bikini while her girlfriend wore a sexy bodysuit.

Surprisingly, the sea floor was shallow enough that Sophie could stand with her belly comfortably out of the water.

Cleo's perfect figure and lascivious body was even better than Sophie had remembered.

Two firm mountain peaks could be seen bulging behind a thin layer of fabric. Cleo's soft body seemed to be calling out to Sophie like a siren leading sailors to their deaths.

"You've grown quite a bit," Sophie lewdly smiled as she pinched the two soft breasts in front of her.

Cleo started to groan as the tingles of pleasure were running down her spine. Sophie continued to knead and press as the princess shook in ecstasy.

The ocean was oddly silent as the two lovers were the only people around. All that could be heard were Cleo's quiet breaths and Sophie's seductive teasing.

Sophie noted that this beach must be in a secluded area as she observed that there were no tourists or buildings along the shoreline.

"Ouch!" Sophie suddenly yelled as a sharp pain could be felt in her ankle.

"Did something bite me?"

The hybrid girl quickly put her head underwater to check for any mischievous fish, but her golden eyes could not detect any living organisms.

"Maybe you got a cramp," Cleo suggested as this pause in action allowed her flushed face to regain some calm.

"No… I could have sworn… that…" spoke Sophie with some hesitation.

The pounding feeling in her head came back with vengeance. Sophie could see her vision start to darken as the intense pain made her believe that her mind was splitting apart from the seams.

New memories poured into her mind and explained why she had felt a something bite her lower foot.

There had been a medium sized red fish that nipped her ankle while she was distracted with Cleo.

Sophie looked down and her once uninjured ankle now had a tiny bite sized wound that was leaking blood.

"See! It was just a passing fish," Cleo grinned as she poked Sophie's cheek.

Sophie's mind was filled with confusion but under the intense pressure of a pounding headache, she could not think clearly.

"No… I…. yeah… it was just a fish," Sophie muttered as she tried desperately not to scream.

"Why don't we have a change of scenery?" Cleo suggested with a light smile on her face.

The surroundings darkened and Sophie found herself sitting down in the middle of a fancy restaurant.

The warm light from the chandelier shone down on the pair as soft melodic music played in the background.

Sophie felt that the song was familiar and yet she could not identify who was the artist nor where she had heard it before.

The inside of the restaurant was a wide area around the size of a football field.

Expensive artworks and priceless painting could be seen scattered around the open room while there was one sculpture of a sun in the center.

Cleo and Sophie were the only guests present but it seemed that the waiter had already served them as their table was full of exotic and delicious food.

There were delectable cheesecakes with vanilla frosting as desert, hot soups with meat that was tenderly cooked and a wide range of snacks and appetizers from fried shrimp to macaroni bites.

Sophie could not resist and picked up a fork to try the fried shrimp. She dipped the shrimp in the hot sauce before placing the tasty morsel in her mouth.

Delicious!

Tears ran down Sophie's cheeks as she experienced the best meal that she had in months. After all those weeks of mostly nutrient vials it was good to get some real cooked food.

Nutrient vials?

Why would she only drink nutrient vials?

Another quick jolt of pain caused Sophie to abandon her train of thought as she did not want to get shocked again.

She reached for another helping of food while Cleo stared at her with an expression of quiet contentment.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Sophie asked as she saw her girlfriend's plate remain untouched.

"No... I ate before we came," Cleo gently explained.

"This is all for you."

Sophie nodded in understanding and continued to shovel food into her mouth like a senseless animal.

There was no need for manners or etiquette as the only people in the restaurant were herself and Cleo.

The mouth-watering taste of food helped to distract Sophie from the uncomfortable soreness in her ankle.
