“I did, and I told them I was in love with someone,” she said coyly. “But I didn’t tell them it was you.”

“Do you really want to marry me so badly, Ruka?” he asked in a raspy voice. Ruka blinked slowly as an

her lips curled into a smile, “How dramatic. You’re aware that I have nowhere to run, right? We can

always postpone the marriage until the right time comes.”

He laughed in response. “As you wish.”

The sound of his laugh made her heart skip a beat. Something was comforting and reassuring about

lips as she asked, “Are you serious, Ren? Are you really going to sing me a lullaby?”

“It’s not like I hadn’t done it before when you were a child,” Ren remarked lovingly.
