Bab 61: Chapter 61 ~ "Bloody Red Eyes"

'B-Birthday?'

Eleanora finally remembered that today was her 13th birthday…

In the empire, people weren't allowed to celebrate their birthday before the coming-of-age ceremony and as she was busy with her training and all, she totally forgot about her birthday.

'So… it's been already a year since I came back. That means Father will be back soon, The war would start too. It's just I didn't fall for him in this life like the past…'

Seeing her lost in thoughts while being in his arms, Cathain frowned.

Normally Eleanora would jump out the moment he gets close to her but right now, she was too shocked and lost in thoughts to do so.

'I don't want you to stay in my arms like this. I rather you avoid me because at least you notice me at that time.'

Cathain hugged her more tightly and buried his face on her shoulder.

He spoke like a child who was complaining about not getting attention.
