Chapter 97

Her fists were indeed heavier-than-steel, and whenever he lost his sanity before, she had brought him back to his senses. But he was sure it won’t work forever. If she becomes unable to subdue him, she’ll be eventually pinned down by him.

“Then you don’t need my blood anymore?”

‘Right.’

Sihael nodded with sincerity.

Rather than ending up in such a terrible situation, he would prefer to be the only one needed to be uncomfortable. And it wasn’t that uncomfortable either. He couldn’t speak, but he maintained his lucidity all the time, perhaps thanks to the imprint.

‘Rosetta misunderstood that I had only half of my lucidity.’

Rosetta’s misunderstanding wasn’t entirely wrong. The first time he swallowed Rosetta’s face, he was indeed a bit dazed. Because he was forced to become a wolf, his mind was clouded, and his instinct was stronger than his reason. However, while staying with Rosetta, he was slowly able to regain his reason.

After that, he deliberately pretended to be a wolf.

‘Thanks to that, I was able to kiss her as much as I wanted.’

The corners of his mouth went up as he remembered her kisses falling on his face.

‘The only frustrating thing is how to communicate with her.’

That was bearable, too. Sihael had lost his lucidity all his life and lived like an animal, so it didn’t matter if he couldn’t talk for a while.

“Your Highness, you have grown up in the meantime we haven’t seen each other.”

Sihael pressed his face against Rosetta’s neck and inhaled her sweet scent. Sihael breathed languidly in the familiar scent. His body stretched out at the soft scent as if it was gently caressing down his back.

As Sihael’s eyes closed, Rosetta spanked him on the butt. Sihael, who was hit on his buttocks unexpectedly, came to his senses.

‘Hit me more.’

Rosetta winced, her eyes widening when he held out his butt as if saying that she could spank him as much as she wanted.

Rosetta asked, slowly covering her mouth with her hand, “Are you trying to seduce me now?”

‘Of course.’

Sihael couldn’t wait to seduce Rosetta and get eaten by her. In order to do so, he willingly offered his body to her.

“Appealing your charm with your butt. It’s pretty good.”

Rosetta, who rapped his butt, bent her eyes.

‘It’s not bad to be a wolf.’

Seeing her happy face as she pinched his belly fat, Sihael had this thought for a moment.

Whoosh~

The gentle wind tickled my cheek.

“Yes.”

Drunk, I whined and rubbed my cheek. Then, a soft tuft of hair brushed the back of my hand.

“What the…”

When I opened my eyes in surprise, silver fur fluttered in front of my nose. The hair that tickled my cheek was Sihael’s tail.

“Why are you here… Oh, right.”

Just before I could go to bed, Sihael stormed in. I burst out laughing when I thought of Sihael, who squeezed himself into my bed last night.

“What kind of good dream is he having that his tail can’t stay still?”

The tail swaying constantly from side to side was amazing, so I poked it with my index finger. As if my touch was annoying, Sihael purred and snorted.

“Cute.”

When I pressed down on his twitching nose, I saw a glimpse of his canine and withdrew my hand.

“Sleep tight. I’m going out.”

As usual, I spoke to Sihael, then pulled off the blanket and stood up. As I turned the doorknob, I saw my clothes and rubbed the back of my neck.

‘Don’t go around in your inner garments. Ok?’

The words of Sihael came to my mind.

‘I don’t think anyone cares about what I’m wearing, but I don’t want to be scolded…’

Muttering to myself, I put on a robe that was sprawling on the sofa. I quietly closed the door so that Sihael wouldn’t wake up.

Click.

The hallway was cold. Yesterday it was noisy thanks to Lumiyan and Sihael playing tag, but now it was full of silence.

Feeling spooked by the dreary atmosphere, I tightened my gown around my body.

“Where is Brother?”

In this place where there were no servants, the only way to find a meal was to find Leonard. While searching the villa for him, I couldn’t find him until I went outside.

Leonard was in the garden with Nanabi.

“There is nothing wrong with the barrier.”

“It will not be good if the barrier breaks through like before, Nanabi.”

“Hmph, I told you it won’t break through again.”

Nanabi, who scoffed fiercely, stretched out her arms.

“Since we have time left, should we go make a wish?”

“You still haven’t given up?”

“No, well, there’s nothing to lose if I lose, right? Do you want to go, too?”

I listened carefully to the conversation between the two.

“As a wizard, how can you believe in such superstition? It’s better to train in the meantime.”

“Who says I believe it? I’m just going because I’m bored.”

I couldn’t stand my curiosity and interrupted the conversation between the two.

“What are you guys talking about?”

When I appeared with eyes sparkling with curiosity, Nanabi was startled and clutched her chest.

“When did you wake up?”

Leonard greeted me calmly, as if he knew I’d come.

“Just now. I woke up because His Highness kept tickling me with his tail.”

“No wonder you weren’t in your room yesterday.”

Leonard let out a light sigh and shook his head.

“Nanabi, please let me know, too. What superstition do you believe in?”

“Do you see that mountain? There is a large rock that has been in place for a thousand years, and there is a superstition that if you make a wish on it, any wish will come true.”

Ho? There’s something like that?
