Once inside, they all sat down in the living room. It was large and filled with furniture sitting against the walls. There was one wall that had a large window that gave an open look to the backyard garden. In the middle, a few comfortable couches and tables were set up, enough for all the girls to sit around comfortably.

The girls already had their favorite places to sit, so each of them moved with familiarity. Yasenia didn't move to her usual sitting place, though.

While Soluna couldn't be touched by people, that didn't mean that she couldn't touch furniture. Her body didn't react to touch but to the energies from others influencing the balance of her body, creating a reaction between the unstable Sun and Moon energies.

To make sure nothing went wrong, Soluna sat on the corner of the couch, and Yasenia sat by her side. Her tail also curled around Soluna's sitting position, creating a somewhat protective barrier.

Yasenia looked at Kaleina, who sat on her other side and warned. "Baby, be careful and don't touch Soluna, okay? If you do, she will explode and kill you."

Kaleina blinked a few times and nodded, clearly understanding the message. "Okay, Mommy, I won't touch her."

Yasenia smiled and kissed her forehead. "Good girl." Her eyes moved toward Flame, who was sitting by Kaleina's side, and saw the adolescent woman nod. "Don't worry, Aunty."

Meanwhile, the little spirit felt her core buzz with happiness at being surrounded by Yasenia's presence. After Yasenia broke through, her "celestial" aura became more noticeable, and being around her was like being enveloped by a warm blanket on a cold day for the empyrean spirit.

Cecile's cold and aloof voice snapped Soluna out of her reverie.

"Soluna. We asked Yasenia, and now I will ask you."

Soluna looked at Cecile and felt her icy blue eyes locking onto her with piercing intensity. The aura of the Moon Phoenix, similar to most of the girls, had undergone a massive change after breaking through. However, Cecile, who had experienced true death, was a completely different creature.

The profoundness of her gaze, the coldness of her aura, the aloofness her being emitted, everything was much more tangible, as if it had weight on her surroundings.

Even Soluna, who didn't really feel pressure from beings on similar levels due to her incredible individual might, couldn't help but feel slightly pressured.

"Why do you want to become Yasenia's contracted spirit?"

Soluna straightened her back and looked at Cecile seriously. Her usual innocent aura disappeared as her expression turned earnest. "Since the first time I saw Yasenia, I felt a connection with her."

Cecile looked at her and didn't speak as if telling her to speak further.

Soluna was not done, so she continued. "The aura Yasenia has is attractive for most spirits. Even Embera, Nyxeris, and the rest felt attracted to her. However, for me, it is a bit different." Soluna got thoughtful and expressed slowly. "My attraction is not entirely toward her energy signature. It is more about... Yasenia herself."

Soluna, unaware of what her feelings actually were, expressed herself truthfully. "I want to be by Yasenia's side. When she smiles at me, I feel my core flutter. Ah! I also get worried when she gets injured, and I feel happy when she is successful!"

The girls listened to Soluna with twitching eyebrows. 'Who lied to us and told us spirits couldn't fall in love!?'

Soluna's face brightened as she continued. "Not only that! I strongly feel like I want to become her strength! Her strength is awe-inspiring, her attitude feels like that of a ruler, and Yasenia always feels like she is untouchable, invincible! Even against the tribulation, when she was desperately fighting, I felt an unyielding spirit inside of her that I was attracted to!"
