The Abandoned Baroness is one of the Black Knight’s favorites

After the evening party, only close friends showed no sign of ending the feast, and everyone ended up staying at the Folster Marquis.

Since I was hosting the evening party, I was preparing for the guest room, and except for the knights who were off duty the next day to drink until the morning, I was able to have everyone sleep in each room.

From the salon on the first floor, there was a faint leak of funny laughter.

After changing into night clothes and leaving the maid alone, Sophia poured a glass of water from the jug.

I only drank a little alcohol, but I seem to have been intoxicated by the atmosphere.

Grab a glass and bring it to your mouth.

The cold liquid that passes through your throat seems to calm your mind little by little, which can't help but to chirp.

The moonlight from the window and the mansion show more signs of people than usual.

If Sophia's mother had been alive, what would she have said when she saw Sophia today? Can you praise him for his good work?

The memories of my parents were from a very young age, and my imaginary father put his hands on Sophia's head. Mother was gently clasping her arms and kissing me on the cheek.

Sophia greeted her mother with joy. Then, my father would hug Sophia like a mother.

"It's a happy memory..."

Those who have passed away have a pain in the chest.

It looks like you're getting sentimental away from the busy place.

Sophia drank all the remaining water and moved to the center of the bed. Gilbert must be surrounded by Platoon IIers. You'll be sleeping alone today.

Sophia tried to pull up the sheets, but the sound of the door slamming quietly raised her face.

"Are you── awake?"

The low voice is gentle as it melts into the night. If Sophia had been asleep, she would have stayed awake.

Sophia replied in a hurry.

Then, Gilbert came into the bedroom after he had finished his bedtime.

“I'm sorry, I was about to go to bed.”

"Yes, but... I'm glad you're here."

I miss sleeping alone after a busy nightclub.

Stop Sophia moving her body to get out of the bed, and Gilbert comes up to the bed. Gilbert grabbed Sophia's wrist and pulled her back as she leaned over the edge to make it easier for her to sleep.

Tilting your neck pulls your hands around your hips.

When she noticed it, Sophia sat between Gilbert's legs sitting on the couch, holding her back to her big chest.

Gilbert-sama?

Gilbert let out a small laugh at Sophia's confused voice.

"──Sophia, you must be tired until today. He did a good job preparing for the evening until I was free.”

”No... oh, as a mistress, it's only natural──”

“He says I'm saved. You don't have to be so worried."

Gilbert's big hands were on Pon and Sophia's head. Compared to when I first met her, she was much more familiar with her hands, but she was still clumsy, and her hand stroked Sophia's head.

I thought you were spoiled.

It is only natural that the Marquise should be able to do this.

However, at the same time, it seemed to accept and acknowledge Sophia who had told herself that it was natural and unfamiliar, and her heart was relieved.

"Thank you..."

There were a number of shortcomings.

Although there were no major problems during the evening party, there were many places where Christina helped me even though it was a last-minute change.

"You haven't been to many evening parties so far." I think it was extra tough. Thank you. "

Compliments straight up, cheeks hot from embarrassment.

A hand strokes Sophia's head and gently touches her cheek. I thought that Gilbert's fingertips would be cold and he would notice the temperature of Sophia's cheeks.

She lies on her back and her lips gently touch her cheeks.

My face feels extra hot.

The arms turned from her back clasped Sophia like a stuffed animal. Perhaps Gilbert's temperature, which spreads through his back, is higher than usual because he was drinking.

Cold fingertips and high body temperature.

Sophia gently laid her hands on Gilbert's hands in front of her stomach. Sophia's hands are much warmer than Gilbert's.

"... I think I'd like to do my best since Gilbert-sama is here."

Release your hand and turn to Gilbert. Holding her hand firmly this time, Sophia deposited her body on Gilbert's chest.

To Gilbert's astonishment, Gilbert stares slightly.

If you're with Master Gilbert, you can do better. That's why.──

The other words were sucked into my mouth.

In the meantime, Gilbert's arm was turning to Sophia's back and it hurt a little. Still, I love you even for that pain.

Sophia wanted to hug him as hard as she could, and she turned her arms to Gilbert's back as she kissed him. But it still doesn't give me the strength I need.

If I could hold on to it painfully, I might have been able to convey all my thoughts beyond words.

Sophia, strangling herself with a little bit of remorse, didn't notice.

Everything that Gilbert wanted to do for his imaginary parents was given to him by Gilbert.
