Trapped in Laxus's Embrace

Suddenly, and without warning, Rocco found himself lying on Laxus's bed.

It happened right after they had said goodbye to the Crown Prince.

Laxus who is still smiling but completely silent, had picked Rocco up without a word and carried him back to his room, ignoring all of his resistance.

And now—here he was, in this bewildering situation, completely lost as to what was going on.

"L-Laxus? Are you sleepy? If so, I'll leave so I won't disturbing you."

They were in the bedroom, after all.

And they were on the bed.

That probably meant Laxus wanted to take a nap, right?

If that was the case, Rocco figured it would be best to leave.

He didn't want to get in the way of Laxus's rest, and besides, there wasn't really anything for him to do while Laxus was fast asleep.

Yes, that was the most reasonable course of action—he should just get up and go.

Or so he thought.

However—hmm? Huh?
