Supreme Magus novel Chapter 907

Chapter 907 Open Wounds Part 1

"Oh gods, I need to sit down." Despite Solus’s best efforts, Selia could feel her knees buckling. The golden hair, the luminous body, and the majestic aura that surrounded Solus made her look like someone out of a fairy tale.

"Oh gods, where does this thing come from?" Selia flinched when a comfortable armchair appeared out of thin air.

"It’s good to finally meet you in person, Solus." Ryman offered her his hand, but she hugged him instead.

Protector wasn’t just a business partner, he was their oldest friend.

"Same here. What do you think?" She said after taking a few steps back and turning around to let him see her full figure.

"You’re a lovely young woman." Ryman nodded.

"Yeah, how old are you?" Selia asked.

"Centuries-old, but since I’ve forgotten almost everything about my past life, my mental age is around twenty." Solus said.

Lith had them move to the living room before starting to explain things properly.

"Let me get this straight." Selia said after the question and answer session was over. "You found her when you were four, but she didn’t get a body until last year, correct?"

"Yes." Lith nodded.

"Are you cheating on Kamila, young man? Because I like that girl and if after everything you went through together you hurt her, Awakened or not I’m going to kick your ass." Selia said.

"I’ve never cheated on anyone in my life." Lith was outraged by her accusation. "Solus and I work and live together, but we have separate rooms."

"Why don’t you explain to us in your own words how you feel about each other, then? Selia crossed her arms and legs, clearly unconvinced.

Lith opened his mouth and raised his forefinger, yet no word came out.

’If I say she’s my moral compass, I’ll sound like a madman. Saying that she’s my better half or the fairy on my shoulder would be even worse.’ He thought.

’My life companion? My other half? My most beloved person? By my maker, why do only expressions that make it sound like we’re married come to my mind?’ Solus thought.

"It’s complicated." They replied in unison.

"I can see that." Selia said. "If you don’t mind, I’d like to talk to Solus alone."

Lith and Protector left the living room, moving to the upper floor. Lith wanted to show him the Mirror Hall and take a look at the Trawn woods.

"I won’t mess with your personal life because it’s not my place. Yet from what I understand, your only friends are Nyka, Tista, Ryman, and Kalla. Correct?" Selia asked, receiving a nod in reply.

"No offense, but I think that a newborn vampire, a young woman with no life experience, an oaf that told his wife about being an Emperor Beast only after their first child was born, and a wannabe Lich don’t have much wisdom to offer you.

"I don’t know how much of what I experienced in our relationship so far was really Lith and how much it was actually you, but I’m willing to find out. We both don’t have many friends and we could use some company.

"If you ever need to talk about how it feels to be lonely, in love, or even just human, feel free to contact me." Selia shared with Solus her communication rune.
