Chapter 17
“Would you like to wash up first?”
Laritte asked as her eyes fell on the small bathroom in one corner of the room.
“……What?”
“Are you not going to wash up? There seems to be plenty of water.”
“Ah, yes. Yes…..”
Trying to hide his agitation, he stepped towards it.
He brushed off his thoughts and returned back to the room after cleaning himself up.
Laritte was already asleep on one side of the bed.
Before he became a swordmaster, he was still skilled in swordsmanship, but he did not develop much of his physical strength.
But Laritte was different.
Ian didn’t know that Laritte began to take care of her meals only recently.
Although she didn’t use much of her energy, the journey must have been tiring.
Ian shook her carefully, but she didn’t open her eyes.
Only the sound of her breathing peacefully reached his ears.
‘Sigh.’
Eventually, he sighed, lifting her in his arms and laying her down properly.
It was strange to think about whether or not she was waiting for him.
“Don’t you think you should cover yourself with a blanket?”
“Mm-hmm.”
She made a sound in her sleep.
Ian lied down next to her gently, covering themselves with the blanket.
The bed was so narrow that it forced him to shift towards her.
The ends of her silver hair were tickling his arm.
He turned towards her.
As he stared at her, a gentle smile crept upon his face unknowingly.
He didn’t know, but such a smile was also noticed by him by his nanny when he was a child.
However, it wasn’t a moment to cherish such childhood memories.
The two had spent one long season together and came all the way here.
The highlights were in front of them now.
The word companion could not be more fitting than it was now.
Ian whispered softly in her ear.
“Hey.”
“…….”
She couldn’t open her eyes, but she tossed and turned.
Eventually, she shifted into his arms. It was something to be felt all the way.
Anyway, they were married. He wished this moment would not end in a flash.
