ตอน 162: Carried on the back

Anastasia was woken up by the cheerful chirping of small birds. As she opened her eyes, her gaze fell on the tall plants that provided both her and Dante shelter, despite the sun having already risen to greet another day. 

"Good morning," Anastasia greeted when she saw Dante open his eyes, and it appeared that they both had enjoyed a restful sleep beside each other. 

"Good morning." Dante returned the greeting with a contented expression. 

Using her elbows, she inched closer to him and then kissed him before a smile graced her lips. She expressed, "I cannot wait for the forests to return to Versailles," so that they could spend their time like this without a single worry. 

"It will be something to look forward to," Dante hummed, and he gently placed his hand on the side of her face. He then reminded her, "We should head back to the house before I lose the credibility that I earned yesterday."
