The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Queenie embraced Klaus tightly as if letting go would make him vanish.

Her emotions were unstable, and the feeling of relief wasn’t entering her body, making it difficult for her to consider the fact that Klaus was still alive and wasn’t going anywhere.

But that can be understood considering the last time she saw Klaus, she was dying, and back then, all she saw in his eyes were anger and sadness.

Among the many who knew the Asura god, only she could boldly say she knew the real him.

The rest of the universe painted him as evil, sadistic, and bloodthirsty.

But she saw him as caring, loving, and overprotective.

She had never seen him angry before. He was always happy.

So seeing the anger in his eyes for the first time broke her. Then there was the sadness. She knew his death was the cause of all that, so even after millions of years, when she finally recalled that fateful moment, she felt her heart break all over again.

“Stop crying, Queenie. I am here and not going anywhere anytime soon,” Klaus said, rubbing her back as the Asura Queenie shed her tears.

Her emotions were in turmoil. She wasn’t having a good time, so for two good hours, Klaus could only hug her and do all he could to calm her down.

When she finally did, she looked into Klaus’s eyes as if checking if it was truly him. Making sure it was indeed him, a smile and a sigh of relief filled her up.

“I am sorry, Klaus. I really am sorry. I tried to stand by you, fight for you, and win with you. But in the end, I was too weak to keep my promise.

I was too weak to make your dreams come true.” Tears started falling from her eyes again.

“I know just saying sorry isn’t good enough. I made you suffer, and for that, I am sorry. However, I will and would make sure this time around, I won’t fail. I will stand by you and see it through… I promise.”

Queenie bent her head down, feeling the shame wash through her body.

Years ago, when she became the wife of the Asura God, she made him a promise. She promised him she would stand by him, face the danger with him, and embrace death with him.

She promised to handle everything with him, standing shoulder to shoulder with him through thick and thin. However, in the end, she was unable to keep that promise.

She couldn’t keep her promise, and for that, she felt shame and guilt. However, she now has a second chance, and this time, she intends to keep her promise.

Klaus smiled slightly, feeling the primal hunger of an Asura born emitting from her.

’A few weeks ago, she was calm like a bug, showing no sign of the bloodthirsty Asura borns I know. Now, however, she has assumed her true self, and the hunger for blood is palpable on her.

I guess she is back, and that means her dangerous side has also awakened. However, I don’t think I like this side of her.

Though this side of her is her true self, I don’t think her becoming my weapon is something I will be happy about.

If anything, I want her to live a normal life this time, not one where she has to live just so she can keep a promise to me.

Hearing her say that breaks my heart. Becoming her true self just to serve me like a servant isn’t something I want.’

Klaus wiped her tears and pulled her close to him, planting a kiss on her forehead.

“Listen to me, Queenie. I’m glad you’ve recovered some of your memory. Trust me, I know, but now that you have, I also know you feel like you let me down or whatever.

I still don’t know what happened, but I have a feeling you did all you could to stand by me. For that, I am grateful.

However, planning to become my weapon isn’t something I am okay with. Yes, I know you are strong, powerful, and can stand shoulder to shoulder with me.

However, you are my wife, and while it is romantic to fight by my side, I also want you to have a life. I want you to be happy and live a life of freedom.

It is true that dangers will come. We will face harrowing ones, but at the end of it all, I want to see you living a normal human life.

The look in your eyes now isn’t encouraging at all. You look like someone ready to give up on free living and become a sharp weapon.

I am not saying you should abandon your warrior side. No, that is the last thing I want. What I want from you is for you to have both a free life and a warrior life.

I don’t want you to dedicate your entire life just to keep a promise to me. I want you to be able to live like you were doing with your sisters.

I want you to be happy so that when the danger comes, you will be able to face it with me and your sisters and friends.

Whatever happened back then should be my failure, for I failed to protect you. And I should be the one promising you that this time, I will ensure you stand by me to the end.

That I can promise you,” Klaus leaned in and kissed the teary Queenie, whose tears returned again, and this time, Klaus knew it would be a while before she came to terms with this.

She had to reevaluate her thoughts, for she knew Klaus meant what he said, and while she wanted nothing more than to become his weapon, she now understood her thinking was too shallow.

Instead of becoming just a warrior, she had to also become a wife. She had to make her man happy, not just on the battlefield but also in bed. That is what she had to do now that she had a second chance at life.

So she went into deep contemplation, and after hours, she managed to calm down.

She finally knew what had to be done. So she pushed Klaus onto the bed and climbed on him. It took just a few minutes to get the paragon rod standing.

She climbed on it and let it slide into her inner regions.

Thus, she started what she wanted to do, and it would be after five hours before she would be satisfied. Klaus, of course, was happy to see the development, so he engaged her in four intense rounds.
