Chapter 125: Cell

Lilith fell asleep in Atlas' arms. After a really long time, she had felt this peaceful and safe as she slept. The beautiful atmosphere made things even better for her. 

The carriage kept moving throughout the night. It was unclear when it happened, but even Atlas fell asleep sometime during the night. 

Even the first ray of sunlight fell on his face; he slowly opened his eyes, using his right hand to give some shade to his eyes. 

He also felt some weight on his chest. Lilith was still sleeping; however, her head was now resting on his chest somehow. 

He couldn't get up, or he would've disturbed her sleep. He smiled wryly but didn't move, letting her get enough sleep. Just like him, she hadn't slept in a really long time either. It was probably her first time getting sufficient sleep. 

He moved his hand before Lilith's face, giving her the same shade, so her sleep wasn't broken by the sunlight.
