Chapter 1121 The End Of A Fairy Tale [Part 4]

Lux and Luna danced, staring into each other's eyes with smiles on their faces.

Their steps were elegant and graceful, seemingly experienced. Both of them had taken dancing lessons from the choreographer that Francesca hired a month ago just for this very scene.

Both of them wished for the song to be a little longer, but contrary to their wishes, the song soon came to an end.

Suddenly, the tolling of a bell resounded in the night, making Lux look sadly at his partner.

Without saying a word, he left the scene and rushed toward the palace garden in haste.

After a moment of hesitation, Luna followed, almost running in order to catch up to him, with a hint of anxiety on her face.

A few minutes later, she found the Prince, standing at the center of the garden, illuminated by the moonlight.

"It's time to say goodbye," Lux said as he turned around to look at the young lady. "It was fun while it lasted."

"Where are you going?" Luna asked while approaching him with hurried steps.

"Somewhere very far," Lux answered.

"Can I go with you?"

"No."

Lux sadly smiled before giving Luna a hug. She hugged him back, almost pressing her entire body against him as if wishing to become one with him then and there.

The two didn't say anything and simply held each other in a loving embrace.

A minute later, the Half-Elf reluctantly stepped back.

"Wherever I may be, know that I will always think of you," Lux said.

Just as he was about to walk away, Luna suddenly grabbed his hand, holding him in place.

She then closed the gap between them and wrapped her hands around Lux's neck before standing on tiptoe.

A second later, she pressed her lips against his, giving him a kiss.

"I'll wait for you," Luna said after she pulled back from the kiss. "No matter how long it takes."

"I may not be able to return," Lux replied. "Will you wait even then?"

"Yes. Even if I grow old and decrepit, I will wait for you," Luna said with determination. "So, you better return before that happens."

These weren't part of the script, and the two were ad-libbing, and yet, the emotions behind their words resonated with Francesca's heart.

She had given them the green light to improvise in order to make this particular scene more impactful.

The two stared at each other's eyes, firmly holding each other as if they didn't want to part.

Lux then lowered his head to kiss Luna's lips, to which the latter replied in kind.

The two kissed, and kissed, and kissed, making the men and women at the scene feel jealous.

Finally, after half a minute of kissing, Lux finally pulled back and gave Luna a confident smile.

"Goodbye, Mary," Lux said. "I will keep this memory in my heart."

The Half-Elf then turned before walking away.

Luna watched him go with tears streaming down her face. The staff was impressed by her acting skills, but they didn't know that she wasn't acting.

Her tears came from the heart because she knew that Lux would really disappear from her life before the night was over.

At that exact moment, Francesca's voice reverberated in the surroundings.

"Cut!" Francesca shouted. "Good take!"

Hollie immediately went to Luna's side and gave her a hug.

"That was amazing!" Hollie said. "Well done, Luna. Here, let me wipe those tears away."

The beautiful woman started to gently dab Luna's tears using a tissue paper so that it wouldn't ruin her makeup.

Everyone congratulated her, including Francesca, who was very happy with how the scene turned out.

Luna thanked them before her gaze wandered off to the corner of the set, where Lux stood with his arms crossed over his chest.

The Half-Elf waved in her direction, and she waved back at him despite the sadness she was feeling.

"Okay, everyone. Let's go and eat our fill at the buffet!" Francesca ordered. "I'm a bit hungry, especially after seeing that kissing scene."

The staff members laughed and looked at Lux and Luna, who had made an impressive shoot with only one take.

"Are you not coming?" Hollie asked Luna, who was still standing in place.

"No," Luna replied. "Manager, it's fine to leave now, right?"

Hollie looked at the young lady before shifting her gaze to the Half-Elf, who was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed over his chest.

A realization came to her mind before nodding her head.

"Here, take this," Hollie said as she handed something to Luna before whispering something in her ear. "Do things in moderation, okay?"

Without another word, the third wheel left the set, leaving Luna behind.

As soon as Hollie left, Luna ran in Lux's direction and almost jumped into his arms.

Naturally, her Prince caught her gently and pulled her into his embrace.

The two hugged each other in silence for a full minute before Luna raised her head to offer her lips to him.

Lux accepted her offering and kissed her lovingly. A few seconds later, he raised her right hand and also gave it a kiss.

"What is this that you are holding?" Lux asked in a teasing tone, while lightly waving the thing that Hollie had given her a while ago. "Are you feeling a little naughty?"

The young lady pouted and lightly pounded Lux's chest with her fist.

"You're so mean," Luna replied. "You already know that Hollie gave it to me, and you still tease me about it."

The Half-Elf chuckled before moving his hands to carry Luna in a princess carry.

A moment later, a pair of Draconic Wings appeared on his back.

"Hold on, Princess," Lux whispered seductively in Luna's ears. "I will show you the world."

With a flap of his wings, he took off to the skies, holding the young lady in his arms.

Luna looked up at him and asked the question that she had been meaning to ask.

"How long?" Luna asked. She didn't need to finish her sentence because there was no need to say anything more than that.

"Two hours and forty minutes," Lux replied.

The Half-Elf then flapped his wings to fly to a secret viewing platform that gave a scenic view of the town they were currently in.

This town had an old castle, which the crew had used to shoot the scene.

It was surrounded by lush forest, making it a very touristy area to visit.

Lux had scouted the place while everyone was asleep, wanting to find the best place to spend a memorable time with Luna.

Unfortunately, he didn't find any, so he decided to make one himself.

Using his magic, he created an elevated platform on the small mountain, near the forest.

This allowed them to have a full view of everything around them, creating a picturesque setting.

The view was indeed beautiful, and yet, instead of being happy, Luna only felt sadness.

She only had a little more than two hours to spend time with him, and after that, he would disappear and return to the worlds of Solais and Elysium.

Back to the worlds where her sister, Aina, was waiting for his return.
