“You’re cooking for me so of course, you’re allowed to,” Ren said as he smiled adoringly at me.

It was probably the first proper smile that Ren showed me since his return. Suddenly the long and boring days of lessons after lessons felt like they were nothing.

“Come to think of it, I don’t even know where the kitchen is here…” I said in sudden realization.

“I guess I’m adapting to being a court lady now. I’m so used to food magically appearing on the table that I don’t even know where the kitchen is anymore…” I said with a dry laugh. To be honest, I wasn’t convinced if that was a good thing.

“Glad to hear that you’re fitting in,” Ren said, smiling back at me.
