Valentina had only just started to wake up slightly before sunrise. A faint glow on the horizon could be seen, but otherwise everything remained dark. She tried to move as softly as she could manage so as to not disturb the girl sleeping beside her, but just as she was about to gently remove the hand holding her waist it suddenly clenched and pulled her close and a pair of lips came to greet her.
"Planning to leave so early without even waking me up? How cruel!"
Dahlia's playful voice rang out in the otherwise silent room and she began kissing the Archduchess all over relentlessly. Finally managing to hold the needy girl back, Valentina chuckled as she gave a gentle kiss on Dahlia's forehead before pulling away.
