A fair Night~Interlude

"Wait… Rose and Snow are spending the night with Riley?"

Alice asked, blinking as she tilted her head. Her golden eyes flicked to me for clarification.

"But I thought you already gave them plenty of time last night?"

"Oh, that's a bit embarrassing to admit, sister Alice,"

Liyana giggled, tapping a finger against her lips.

"But darling here focused exclusively on me yesterday. So naturally, he now has to make amends for ignoring the other sisters~ Which means," she added with a teasing lilt, "you might not get to join tonight's little night party—unless, of course, the other girls give you permission~"

"She's still banned," Rose stated immediately, crossing her arms without hesitation.

"Wha—Why!?" Alice whined, her expression twisting in protest. "I held back quite a lot yesterday, you know!"

"That doesn't matter," Rose said flatly. "Riley hasn't given us any alone time yet. So, you're still not invited."
