"Mhmm… Just a little more…" Muttering heavily through her teeth, Irea refused to wake up. Squirming closer to Layn's chest, she hid in his embrace, trying to convince the archmage with the warmth of her body of just how bad an idea it was to move out of the bed.
"Dear…" Rubbing the girl's scalp with slow yet steady motion, Layn gave up. Over the last few days, nothing happened to the shrine. Thanks to the insane deal that Layn offered from the get-go, the developmental elder of the outer academy didn't even bother to negotiate the price down, nearly instantly accepting all the terms Layn set. And with all of that in mind, Layn could finally rest easy…
As if.
