He gently stroked her lips, sliding his index finger between them. He didn’t want to hurt her tender, petallike lips.
“If you want to bite something, bite this instead.”
Her face flushed with embarrassment as she bit down on his sturdy finger.
She couldn’t bear to bite hard, making her pitiful face all the more endearing.
As her body temperature rose, her scent intensified. As the scent hit his lungs, a sense of satisfaction filled him.
Before long, outside the window, the red sun was setting, burning its last rays.
After the unending waves of intensity, Idel sank into the bed like a shipwrecked boat.
She was so exhausted that she couldn’t muster any strength.
Deciding to give the wornout captive a moment of respite, Caeron pulled her into his embrace. His arms wrapped around her body like ropes.
Within his sturdy embrace, the shattered Idel could finally take the rest he had suggested.
Her rapid heartbeat and ragged breathing gradually steadied. Her drowsy eyes slowly closed.
With a brief kiss on the forehead of his sleeping woman, Caeron too closed his eyes.
[This is the time separator]“Awake, Idel.”
Immersed in deep sleep, Idel gently opened her eyes at the sound of the low voice calling her.
She locked eyes with a gaze holding the dawn of a blue morning. At the same time, sleepiness faded from her eyes.
“You seem to have rested enough.”
Anticipating something to start again, Idel clung to the quilt. Caeron laughed at her wary gaze.
“Don’t worry. It would be troublesome if you fall asleep again from exhaustion. There’s not enough time to give you ample rest.”
Upon his words, the memory of what happened before she fell asleep surfaced and Idel’s face turned red. She turned her gaze out the window.
The dawn sky, before the sun fully rose, was dyed in a deep blue hue.
Through the dim sight, the horizon was visible and the red sun was slowly peeking out.
“Is that… the sea by any chance?”
Idel asked, blankly staring out the window.
She involuntarily gasped at the sight of the sunrise over the sea. It was a majestic sight she had never seen before.
“Yes. Welcome to the Duchy of Elyos.”
Precisely, they had entered the Duchy of Elyos the moment she fell asleep… While she slept soundly, the train relentlessly ran and arrived at the east end of the Duchy of Elyos.
“We should get ready to disembark the train now.”
At Caeron’s words, Idel hurriedly evaluated the situation.
The Duke, who had been as disheveled as her, was now perfectly dressed.
In contrast, she… Pulling the quilt up to her neck, Idel spoke with a trembling voice.
“Just a moment… Please turn around.”
The location of the bathroom was close, but she still had to get off the bed and take a few steps.
She planned to quickly get into the bathroom while he wasn’t looking, wash up and change her clothes.
“We’ve already seen each other fully… Now?”
At Caeron’s meaningful gaze, Idel felt a sudden heat rush to her body.
They had nonrestful rest from the afternoon when the sun rose. They captured each other more vividly than the first night.
His beautiful muscles, delicately twitching, came to mind and once again Idel’s face flushed.
The thought that he, like her, might remember their bodies, made it impossible for her to meet his gaze.
“……Please…….”
Idel asked him with a small, moist voice. She had no audacity left in her to strut confidently in front of him again after already having shown him her body.
Caeron could not take his eyes off his shy duchess. The blush spreading over her skin, shining even more transparently under the morning sunlight, was adorable.
“If that is what you wish, gladly.”
He wanted to stain her body with a deeper color, but… fearing that the bud might close tightly if he behaved even slightly more wickedly, Caeron retreated.
As he turned his back, Idel quickly grabbed her clothes and headed to the bathroom. It was a movement completely unlike her usually modest gait.
Only when she had closed the bathroom door did her legs give way, and Idel hesitated before finally sinking down.
As she let out a deep sigh and was about to rise to wash, a short knock sounded from outside the door.
Idel shuddered violently in surprise.
“Idel.”
It was the Duke’s voice.
“WWhat is it?”
Clutching the doorknob, she asked in a greatly flustered voice.
“Come to think of it, there’s something I forgot.”
“Forgot…?”
His voice from outside the door was filled with mirth.
“Marlene had something to entrust to me before she left.”
“……What is it……?”
“It seems there is no maid to take care of the duchess… The duke himself was told to help.”
“……!”
Idel’s pupils dilated, and she began to tremble intensely.
Could it be…….
“There was also the matter of helping with the bath… Shall I help you, Idel?”
His tone was wicked. Although she knew he was joking… her legs gave way again and Idel sat down, still clutching the doorknob.
When she didn’t respond for a moment, lost for words, Caeron knocked on the door again briefly.
Jolted back to her senses by the sound of the knock, Idel let out a faint scream and shouted louder than usual.
“I’m okay! Absolutely! I can do it myself!”
One could only imagine the expression she wore just from her urgent voice. The pleasure he got from imagining it made his lips curve gently.
