Chapter 100.1 (1/2)

“Hmm …”

It was a warm and fluffy awakening.

In Rishe’s slumber, she felt like she dreamed about her time in Garkhain.

It was a dream about the events that happened just days ago, like talking with Arnold on the balcony of the detached palace and going to the soiree with him.

For Rishe, it had been a long time since she had had a dream that was not her past lives.

It was a shame that she had to get up, so she rubbed her forehead against something close at hand. She wasn’t clear what it was, but it was quite a good fit.

Something warm was wrapped around her. And the sound of a beating heart reassured her.

Her eyes drooped, and she felt like dozing off, but that something was heaving on her body.

“…?”

Last night’s lethargy immediately vanished.

It didn’t seem an after-effect of the poisoning. She stirred in wonder and slowly opened her eyes as she looked up.

And then took a load of everything.

“…”

Arnold was hugging her in his sleep in the bed.

“――!?”

At that moment, she barely restrained herself from screaming.

Nuh-uh…

They were undoubtedly facing each other, wrapped in the quilt. Arnold was sleeping with Rishe’s head cradled in his arms.

Arnold’s mouth looked buried around Rishe’s bangs.

How did I end up on the same bed as His Highness?

Arnold was the only one using a pillow while Rishe turned his arm into one. She panicked when she registered that, but she was too stumped to move.

Then she recalled how it all started.

It’s all my fault for fretting and being whiny!!

Rishe immediately blanched, upon remembering what had happened last night.

I told him to go back to his room and sleep, but he said, “I can’t leave you alone, I’m going to stay with you for the night.” Then I said something like, “If you must insist on staying here, please at least sleep in bed instead of staying up all night”…

She’d cried her eyes out last night that her thoughts got muddled and said some crazy things.

Arnold was rendered speechless at that time, but he reluctantly nodded and said, “Okay,” because Rishe looked on the verge of tears once more.

Nevertheless, her deeds were unconscionable.
