33. touch(?)
Aki felt a warm touch(?) enveloping his whole body, his brain gave an alert of invasion, but his heart felt the similar warmth of his Onee-chan and easily accepted it... it made him feel very warm and protected... and just like that, the story took another turn...
Aki would never accept others till he met the prince very late, but now... he already accepted his Onee-chan in the deepest of his soul force
The world was changing beyond recognition..... in a better way...
…...
Yuki still got a full body check-up before she was given an okay from the doctor, according to him, she was very healthy.
Aki heard the doctor say that and the hand that was holding her hem finally loosened as she slowly climbed up to her lap and hugged her, he was worried and now he was glad his Onee-chan was fine!
The prince who was left alone by Aki, felt a weird feeling... like something precious being stolen from him, it was a violent feeling, but he ignored it, for the 'him' right now, Aki was indeed a precious presence, but he could also see that Yuki was the reason this child was smiling now, he will strive his best to be a similar presence in his life... Well, they were just kids now and had a long way to go.
…....
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, I apologise for the commotion I caused and also for not introducing ourselves earlier. This is the first child of the Duke of Winterdale, Yuki Winterdale and he is the second child, Selene Aki Winterdale...", she gave a noble curtesy, which was followed by Aki's.
The Crown Prince finally remembered that the duke was going to come today with his children.
He too apologised for not recognising them and introduced himself, "Makarios K. Apollo. It's been a pleasure meeting you two..."
.........
Without further ado, they went to the study for the job they came here for.
Yuki had a rough guess about the completed course so, it was much easier for all.
Aki has been sitting beside Yuki, munching on some snacks as he took glances at his Onee-chan beside him, from time to time; he wanted to make sure that she was here, once confirmed he would scoot a bit closer to her to get her attention and when Yuki gave his head a pat, he would smile and continue eating...
Aki had a strong intuition that there was something different about his Onee-chan, he couldn't describe it with words, but it felt like, she became complete?
He was a sensitive child to begin with and has been observing Yuki for a while now, she was also the person he was closest to so, it wasn't hard to guess why he could feel it. Still, Onee-chan will always be his Onee-chan, it didn't matter~
He leaned a bit on her and started munching on those delicious snacks again... this scene touched the prince's heart, it was a very warm scene and the relationship between this pair of sibling seemed to be outstanding, if possible, he had a deep feeling of wanting to be a part of it.
Plus, the Aki who was munching on the snacks looked like a cute hamster, he wanted to cuddle this adorable child more than anything, he also has been taking secret glances at the child from time to time.
Aki has also been aware of this beautiful Onii-chan because just a while ago, he had been helping him, this time he also took a secret glance at this boy and their eyes happened to meet, Aki for some reason felt a bit shy, but he didn't take his eyes off; the prince, too, was shocked still, he never thought he would be caught.
Yuki who had known both their sneaky actions that were not sneaky at all, gave a look to the both of them and then continued to go through the materials before her... Call it a woman's intuition, but she had a rough guess where this was going, but by no way was she going to hand over her baby brother so easily, for record's sake, if the Snow Ledwig of that world didn't like Omega, she directly wanted to punch the Alphas... just that, it was another world now and she didn't want to hit someone, who hadn't done anything, well, if he had wrong ideas about Aki, that will be a completely different thing.
On that note, it wasn't hard for her to guess that, the prince was an Alpha, as a previous alpha herself, she had a rough understanding about this and could sense the, still growing, core from inside the young man's body.
It was a colour she had never seen, no-- she had never seen such a colour in Eloten.
After she got her memory back, she had noticed that, there was a strange golden halo mixed with her originally white core, just because she hadn't felt any anomaly from inside her, she had just pushed the topic to the back of her head.
A while ago, when she had sent a part of her white aura into Aki rather than the golden one because she was both not sure of it and that, Aki's own was a calming white just like the full moon. It's not as if, she could see the core of others, if they didn't allow it like Aki had, but for a fact she had lived a long life and it wasn't hard for her to get a knack of distinguishing the faint energy that always leaked out from one's body and right now, these kids were actually just growing up and their unstable core kept leaking, making it easier for her to distinguish them.
Taking another look at the prince, who was still not moving and watching Aki with great concentration, Yuki could feel the faint golden light from his body become a bit unstable... he was nervous?
