Chapter 281: For Now, You Are Mine Alone [Bonus chapter]

"Please don't misunderstand. It's just…" Arabella blushed.

"I… I haven't been able to bathe and cleanse myself for three days so please leave me alone for a bit. I have to clean up first," her face was red with embarrassment by the time she was done explaining.

[Ah, so that was it. I still can't stop myself from overthinking things.] Ferdinand sighed in relief.

"Your maids cleansed you when we were in Medeus. And I cleansed you with magic while we are here."

Arabella blinked twice, "You can do that with magic too? How convenient."

"Yes."

Ferdinand had been embracing her so tightly earlier so she was worried she might have smelled bad. She sniffed her hair and her clothes and she didn't stink one bit.

Arabella sighed in relief. But she still needed her to bathe and cleanse herself before Ferdinand decides to get more touchy.

[She's so cute with her face all red. Is she being shy right now? It makes me want to tease her.] Ferdinand smiled and he had a playful look on his face.
