"Don't you look good?" Lethe muttered. Both of us were in my room in the castle of the kingdom.
"Do I? I think I always look good. No, the very best, like no one ever was."
"I bet you do."
Resting her chin on her palm, Lethe kept staring at me.
Such a simple gesture was enough to send my mind aflutter. Just what was with this person? How could someone be so charming and lovable?
"You're blushing."
"Quit it, I am not."
"Oh you started blushing even heavier."
I tried to avert my gaze as she stood up and walked toward me. Her hands clutched my collars as she gently pulled me closer. With her thumb, she grazed my lips.
"My darling,"
"Yes?"
"Why are the women around you chasing after you?"
A chill ran down my spine.
"Aight, Imma head out."
"Stop right there, little fairy."
Titania sat back down.
Lethe slowly caressed my cheeks, not letting me say a word.
