Chapter 99: Different Desires

"What did you just say..? " Dietrich asks as he stares wide-eyed at his mate. 

Emilia lifts her head and looks at Dietrich with affection in her eyes. "I said that's right." She repeats before laying her head back down. 

"Umm I'm not exactly sure what's going on right now but I get the feeling that you might need to be more straightforward, Emilia." Raph chimes in as he watches with intrigue. 

Emilia keeps her head down and eyes closed as she replies again. "If he doesn't get it then that's his problem. Let me sleep." She says with a yawn. 

"Em… Come on, please." Dietrich pleads as he inches closer to her. "And say it while you're in the other form… "

Emilia opens her eyes and stands before shifting, her eyes smiling with amusement. "I love you Dietrich." She says nonchalantly, as if she isn't dropping an unexpected bomb. 

"Say it again." Dietrich says as he takes another step toward her.
