He did not argue with her and instead reached out to caress her face, where a red mark from her nap was still visible.

Ruka allowed him to caress his face as much as he wanted. She wrapped her arms around his waist and stroked his chest in a bold

motion. However, she was still dazed by sleep and wished for nothing more than to sleep a little more in his arms.

He gently stroked her hair and muttered, “Scarlet will be hin two days. You and your parents should stop by for family dinner.”

Ruka stiffened upon hearing this. His recent nightmare flashed before his eyes and sent a chill down his spine. She hugged him

tightly and confessed, “I'm a little worried.”

“Why? I'll be there,” Ren assured her as he looked at her.

He didn’t dare to tell her about a nightmare he had in which he was lectured and scolded in front of everyone because of him.

“Do | really have to?” he asked faintly, and looked at him in mute despair.

He nodded. “I hope to have you and your parents as my guests.”

Ruka sighed. It seems that sthings are simply inevitable, he thought with resignation. Secretly, he promised to take full blame

for any mishap. Please don’t let Ren take the blfor me.

“Okay,” she promised.

After that, Elijah took her hand Ren returned to his own place for dinner.
