Riftan looked down at Max’s face

“I don’t think you want to sleep with hi her response

“N-no! Of course not!” Max said

She was stung by his words, as if he had insulted her She spoke up heatedly, in case Riftan was still concerned about Ruth

“W-well, I p-pro that, I never considered! R-Ruth too He a-and I would n-never betray R-Riftan”

“I know” he whispered, subdued He gently sucked on Max’s lips “That was just an example I don’t hate the princess She’s a reliable co her like this”

Max enjoyed Riftan’s chin rubbing against her, which had a slightly scratchy texture

“What I feel for Agnes is different to how I feel for you”

“W-What do y-you azed at Riftan’s ether, she was only a small part of his life He saw her expression and pressed her face against his chest

“You are hed over the top of her head

Max’s heart began to beat quickly at his declaration She stopped breathing for a moment and contemplated his words Family She had never considered the concept before Yes, they were family indeed, he was her husband, and she was his wife Suddenly, she felt a luan rubbing her stohten the mood

“And if we have a child someday, our family will consist of three”

“Oh, a-a child W-would you like one?”

“A birth would be good It would be agreeable if we could see the child crawling on the floor while having red hair and grey eyes”

“I-I think b-black hair for the b-baby would be n-nice” Maxa beautiful child who resembled her husband

To be with Riftan and have his child… Since arriving to Anatol, Max had been wrapped around several adventures and tasks, so she hadn’t even considered beco about it now, it wouldn’t be strange to finally have a child Her eyes beca What would it feel like to hold a soft, ainst her chest and brush the baby’s heavy, black hair? Watching the child’s rosy lips pucker? Could she even begin to iine the joy she would feel when the child would call her ‘ht happily about the future

However, a sour thought came to her mind It had been almost half a year since she came to Anatol, was it nor to the nanny who raised her, nant If so, she should expect to not have her period again since last h Riftan had left the castle several tiether so frequently…

Max became anxious as she recalled herable to bear any sons

“Sleep now” Riftan told her He reached out to turn off the lamp and pulled the blanket up to Max’s chin She fell into his waret about her dark predictions

The tiht

Some couples had children only after three or four years since their ood neould arrive for them too

The next day, Max woke up alone when the sun was already up She checked the empty space on the bed where Riftan had laid With disappointed eyes, she sat up and sighed He was an aan her toilette That day, she was going to start doing the duties she had neglected while showing Agnes around Anatol The gardens had to be inspected and she had to ensure that the guests were being properly accoun, Max felt lighter and more at ease than the day before She smiled as she rehout the night, feeling s for her had not cooled down

“Greetings, my Lady,” the maids boith cheerful smiles, as they opened the door and ht?”

“I s-slept well Thank y-you D-Did the g-guests have any i-issues?”

“Everyone slept comfortably,in their rooms”, said Rudis

“H-how is the p-princess?”
