Chapter 457: The Day

I usually slept back in my room, which was also Lethe's room.

"Wake up," she said. I groaned and pulled her closer yet, tightening my grip around her.

"I haven't slept for a thousand years, my head hurts when I am awake."

Lethe suppressed a yawn, she wore a veil even when she slept.

"Let go of me then, I've been sleeping too long."

"I haven't seen you for a thousand years, my heart hurts when you are away."

A sigh left her.

"What am I going to do with you?"

She turned over on her side to face me and wrapped her hands around me just as I had mine around her. The aroma of her hair filled my nose, how did she smell so good?

"How did you sleep long anyway?" I asked. "We went to sleep just a while back."

"You didn't let me sleep all of the night before, so I took the entire day yesterday."

A blush spread over my face.

"Sorry."

"I enjoyed it."
