With that disturbing thought in mind, Haruka went to lay on the bed with Naoki by her side.
As soon as Naoki adjusted his body, she flinched, afraid that he was going to touch her.
"What are you afraid of?" Naoki asked on seeing her reflex action.
"Nothing, My Lord." Haruka replied as she stopped in her actions.
She didn't even know the reason she moved in the first place. Was she so afraid of him touching her?
Shaking his head, Naoki closed his eyes. Soon, she followed suit.
As everywhere quietened down, Aya who was in the dungeon, tried using her powers with the Empress's spell on the chains weakening.
Closing her eyes, she spread out her arms and made some incantations. Soon, her entire hair turned to wine red, a secret of the bloodline of the Prophetess and Seers.
While Haruka was sleeping, Aya came into her dream.
