Chapter 421: Everything
Dani stirred in her sleep, stretching her arms and yawning as she opened her eyes. She felt good after having a comfortable sleep in her bedchamber last night, something that she didn’t even think she’d have yesterday.
"I trust you had a good night’s sleep?"
She jolted awake as Abel’s voice woke her up from her reverie. Sitting up on her bed, she burst out, "What are you doing here?" Abel had that roguish grin as he stared at her. She had to blink several times just to make sure he was really there inside her bedchamber. Although she must admit that she was getting used to him randomly appearing before her face like that.
"Checking on you because your mother asked me to do so and I want to see you," he replied with a wide grin on his face. "Your mother also said breakfast is ready and that you should join us."
"Are you playing a prank on me right now?" Dani snorted as she casually got up from her bed. "I’m even surprised that they didn’t lock you up in a coffin with a powerful spell."
Shaking her head, Dani couldn’t help but feel relieved despite her own words. What she just said was the worst she expected from her parents who were both powerful mages. Frankly, it could’ve happened, but it thankfully didn’t...
She gulped when she realized how closely Abel was staring at her. In response, she quickly touched her hair and subtly combed it with her fingers. Usually, she didn’t mind how she looked early in the morning, but surprisingly, she minded it now with how much he was staring at her.
"You don’t believe me? You can ask them later. I believe they somehow approved of me since I showed them my sincerity last night," Abel casually told her with an unwavering smile before he got up from his seat. "Although, things might go more smoothly if they see how much we like each other. So don’t get startled if I do things that a normal couple would do in front of them,"
Dani narrowed her eyes at him. It looked like he didn’t even have so much of a hard time last night. He even seemed to be glowing with pride since he looked so dashing with his messy bangs while wearing a more casual and comfortable outfit right now. Abel mostly dressed formally with his neat and short side-swept hair, so seeing him like this was a change.
