Chapter 89: Never Run Out of Energy
Mineah was already on her bed when Nikolai suddenly talked to her through their bond. [I know you had a tiring day,] he inquired. [Are you perhaps about to sleep?]
[I was, but this is fine. I was still awake anyway, Lai,] Mineah chuckled as she moved to face the side where the open balcony was located. [By the way, I tasked Nik to go to Ebodia Camp to be my eyes there for a while. I want to know how things are going there.]
[Hmm... Now that Nik is gone, that also means that you won’t be able to see me through its eyes whenever you miss me,] Nikolai pointed out.
[But we always see each other during the morning to have breakfast together anyway,] she chuckled, finding her husband’s flirting fascinating.
[It’s almost a ritual of ours before attending court meetings. That’s good enough for now, right? But don’t worry, I’ll call Nik back whenever I want to see more of you. Maybe I’ll contact him now and have him go to you...] she added with a giggle.
She couldn’t help but blush hard at their conversation. It was a good thing that she and Nikolai weren’t doing this kind of talk face to face right now.
Nikolai chuckled. [Tell me once you’re feeling sleepy or weak,] he insisted. [I can let you rest when that’s the case.]
[I’m good, honest. I’ve actually never felt better] Mineah insisted back. [I mean, the mark is probably already taking effect on my body.]
She honestly felt way better than before now that she thought about it. Even a while ago, she had recharged herself quicker than she usually would. She would normally borrow energy from her Shadow Maidens every day or so, but recently, it felt like some of the energy within her wasn’t from Dani, Zaila, or Krisha.
