Capítulo 54: Eversun as Bargain

It never failed to amaze Daphne how different Korbin managed to look in his sleep. 

He looked so vulnerable.

So mortal. 

He was still, and only the tips of his eyelashes slightly trembled with his even breathing.

For a few moments, Daphne couldn't tell if this was another one of his traps. Maybe, the moment she closed her eyes, he would press his body against hers... 

If anything, this was also the perfect moment to explore his potential weaknesses and try to unlock the secrets of his body. 

Daphne tried to stifle a yawn, but she soon drifted back asleep. 

This time, the nightmares didn't reappear.
