Kapitel 166: Reunited

When we reach the inn, we're greeted by the sight of Blossom and Aurora waiting for us in the common area. Blossom's tail wags eagerly as she spots us, and she leaps over to me with a joyful energy that immediately lifts my damaged spirits. The exhaustion from the grueling training (pummeling) session momentarily fades as she jumps into my embrace, her warmth and happiness is overwhelmingly infectious. I hold her close, letting her nuzzle against me as I stroke her soft head, savoring the simple, loving comfort she provides.

As she nestles against my chest, her nose twitches, and before I can react, she sniffs intently, her expression shifting from joy to concern. Without warning, Blossom grabs my neck and pulls herself up to be face to face with me and licks my cheeks as her tongue leaves a rich trail along my skin.
