Chapter 53 Political Marriage?
"Hmmm..." I let out a satisfied sound without opening my eyes.
For the last 2 days, I couldn\'t sleep more than 30 minutes because of that incident.
But for some reason, I sleep well today and my body was strangely light and very relaxed. Hence I wanted to sleep more.
I buried my face in my pillow, or I tried to do that, as my pillow was more tough than usual. Though it was still very comfortable.
I opened my eyes to check what happened to my pillow but what I saw wasn\'t my pillow but a thigh. Very comfortable, warm human thigh.
I instantly get up to see whose thigh I was lying on and saw the most mesmerizing sight.
The morning sun was gently shining towards a beautiful young man, who is my friend and saviour, Kayle\'s half of his face.
When I think of him as my saviour, I blushed deeply and looked at his hands, which touched my private part on that day.
His hands were beautiful. They were smooth and delicate looking but I could tell that this hand of his contains huge strength.
\'Probably he can snap my neck like a twig.\' I thought and my blush deepened more.
\'I wanted to save him from his abusive family but he saved me instead. I am really pathetic.\' I thought and looked at Kayle again.
While I was looking, I subconsciously came closer to his face.
He was too beautiful that, I was about to do a big mistake that I would regret it.
But I quickly shook my head and recovered myself.
\'I am really pathetic, I can\'t even hold myself properly, while he controlled himself even seeing all of me.\' I thought and blushed because I recalled that moment.
I recalled that moment too many times and whenever I recalled it, I am burning with shame and for some reason, arousal.
After the night when Kayle helped me, as if a seal opened in me, I would feel arousal randomly or whenever I recalled the moment when Kayle helped me.
I tried to help myself as Kayle did, but it didn\'t work like Kayle\'s. I couldn\'t satisfy this shameful desire of mine as Kayle did.
\'Is his hand magical or divine? Should I ask h-\' Before I continued to think more about this, I quickly shook my head to recover myself again.
Kayle was my friend and I didn\'t want to cause more trouble to him for unnecessary things.
I began to think about why was I sleeping on his thighs
\'Why I was sleeping on his thigh? Did he kidnap me? No, I really become an idiot to thinking like this, as it is impossible for this saint like Kayle to kidnap me.\' I thought and tried to remember how I came here.
\'I am really an idiot like my father said.\' I thought after I remembered how I came here.
\'He woke up at the middle of the night and didn\'t even complain, just helped me to sleep without doing anything else, and i slept without even waking up. Does the cause of my sleep problem was a feeling of security as Kayle said? And for some reason, this night I slept comfortably without waking up. Am I feel secure with Kayle that i slept comfortably?\'
\'I am really the worst... Kayle helps me without asking anything and I am taking it for granted while not helping with his abusive family.\' I thought with disgust towards myself and decided to help him with my everything.
\'Kayle is stronger than me both physically, magically and mentally, thus I can\'t help him with just strength but I can help him with politics.\' I thought.
Even though I didn\'t understand the political moves, I knew a perfect way to separate him from his abusive family.
\'I can get him out from his abusive family with a marriage with me.\' I thought and heat raised to my cheeks.
\'it is not like I want to do this for myself, it is completely for Kayle\'s goodness, but it is not like I am against the idea of this...\' I made excuses to convince myself that it was for the goodness of Kayle.
I wasn\'t against this, on the contrary I wanted this deep down, as Kayle was the perfect man that every maiden would want.
He is kind, beautiful, strong and smart. He even saw me naked, so deep down I wanted him to take responsibility, but I didn\'t want to force him into marriage because of this. As Kayle was my dear friend and saviour it would be wrong to force him but I didn\'t want to tell this to Kayle directly as he has pride too even if it is broken by his abusive family. Thus I decided to make him fall in love with me, without forcing him.
I was ready to sacrifice my future, even if I was willing, to Kayle, my dear saviour, friend and possible lover.
\'No! Not possibly. I will definitely make him fall in love with me to save him from his family.\'
While I was thinking like this, I sensed a mana movement around Kayle.
\'Did he cast magic? But isn\'t he sleeping?\' I thought and controlled his heartbeat and breath.
\'He is definitely sleeping. Is he able to cast magic even while sleeping?\' I thought and looked at Kayle with awe.
He can even cast magic even while sleeping, but what did he cast?
While I was pondering about my question, a voice came behind me.
"Master didn\'t wake up at this hour? It is strange."
I looked at my back and saw Kayle\'s maid, Aria, who was looking at Kayle with a blank look while her index finger tapping on her chin.
"Hi." I said quietly to not wake Kayle up.
"Good morning. Were you the guest that my master himself greeted?" Aria asked.
"Yes." I said with an embarrassed tone but I quickly recovered myself.
"You said it is strange for Kayle to still sleeping at this hour. Can I know the reason, I am just curious?" I asked curiously as I wanted to know more about Kayle and his life.
"Normally I wouldn\'t tell you this but I can tell that my master trusts you, as he is sleeping like this without being alert around you." Aria said and pointed at Kayle, who was sleeping defenceless.
\'He trusts me...\' I thought and a small, silly smile appeared on my face.
"My master usually wakes up at 5 a.m and trains until 8 a.m, so it is pretty strange for him to still sleeping at 8 a.m, he must be exhausted." Aria said.
\'Did he take care of me whole night to become exhausted like this?\'
While I was thinking, Aria came closer to Kayle and tenderly caressed his cheek.
\'Isn\'t Aria just his maid? Why is she touching him like she is his lover?\' I thought with jealousy but didn\'t do anything, as I was scared that Kayle would hate me if I meddle his relationship with Aria, regardless of their relationship, as they were very close to each other.
\'I hope Aria is like a big sister to Kayle instead of lover.\' I hoped sincerely.
"Master wake up."
