Chapitre 77: Chapter 77 - The Amulet

By the time, the first orange hued rays of the sunrise peeked in through the windows, Lily was already awake. She was still clinging to Aiden's chest. She loved to listen to her steady breathing, it calmed her mind. In fact, it was this rhythm that eventually managed to bring her to sleep.

Looking at his resting face, she giggled, as she snuggled into his chest one last time, before reluctantly leaving him, and standing up.

"Rest well, brother! I will work hard today, so you can be proud of me when you finally wake up!" 

Halfway to the door, she stopped, and with another giggle, she quickly scurried back and gave a peck on his cheeks. Then, giggling at her own mischief, she went to the bathroom to freshen up for the morning.

By the time she left the room, the dining table was already set, and both Number 3 and Granny was waiting for her.
