章節 108: Waking as a Queen

Waking up as the Queen feels no different than usual, except that I'd stay here for longer.

But someone is knocking with too much insistence. Who dares to disturb the King this early in the morning? Moreover, Ignis is still sleeping like an angel.

I better send the disturbance away and spend the morning looking at this handsome face. The Kingdom won't go to ruin if he sleeps a little more, right?

This is part of his duties: taking care of the King's body.

«I have to go,» Ignis says, opening his eyes and making me startled. «It's late.»

I sulk, unhappy he's already ignoring me for his work. But it can't be helped.

«My dear, we can spend some time together soon enough.»

«How soon?»

«I don't know yet,» he sighs. «But I'll see to finish early.»

«You don't have to,» I say, and it sounds like I'm sulking.

But I'm not! I don't want him to rush and possibly make mistakes, nor to overexert his body.
