Lazarus Wants To Talk With Arielle

Ronan forced himself not to admit that what he was doing was… fun. He also didn't want to admit that he was quite amused by Crimson's adorable face, who was sleeping on his chest. 

He was no longer uncomfortable with the child's drool that wet his clothes. Instead, with his big hand, Ronan touched the soft cheek with his index finger.

"How long will it take to wait for the results to come out?" Arielle asked about the DNA test. 

"Priest Jill said that he would bring the results to me tonight. So there's still a few hours left."

Arielle stroked Ronan's hair several times, making the man feel a little sleepy even though it was still early afternoon. The soft touch of Arielle's hand cradled Ronan until he unconsciously fell asleep on Arielle's lap with Crimson on his chest.
