“Hnnngh...”

Shiori opened her eyes to the light of the morning sun. She let her gaze wander as she lay wrapped in her blanket. Winter sunlight slipped into the room from between the curtains, and beyond them, she heard horse carriages outside. It looked like the day was shaping up to be one of beautiful clear skies.

Dawn in Storydia came late in the winter, and sunrise over New Year’s was around half past eight. Shiori knew instinctively that she’d slept in much later than usual.

The bed next to hers was empty and already made. Rurii, who would usually have been asleep on the floor, was also missing. Still, Shiori knew that Alec and her slime familiar were up and close at hand—she could hear them in the room next door.

“Time to get up...” Shiori muttered to herself.

And yet her body refused to listen—it felt sluggish and lazy.

“I feel a bit...heavy.”

Shiori closed her eyes and felt the exhaustion in her body crush her motivation to rise. But it was not an unpleasant feeling, and her body warmed as she thought back to the feel of Alec’s rough hands on the soft, hidden parts of her body.

True to his word, Alec had not let things progress too far during their first bath together. However, at some point, the goalposts had shifted, and his promise had come to mean something much more along the lines of, “I won’t go all the way.” Shiori had been powerless to resist the pleasure of his touch. She had longed for it—for him, and her, together.

And so, Alec and Shiori had indulged in one another in the evening, but everything that happened afterwards was hazy. Alec had told her he wanted “just a taste,” and he’d proceeded to let her know, physically, how intensely he loved her. The rest was a vague blur. Shiori felt as if she’d closed her eyes for but an instant, only to open them to the morning sunlight.

“If that was ‘just a taste,’” Shiori muttered, “what’s going to happen when we do go all the way?”

Just then, the bedroom door quietly opened.

“Oh, you’re awake.”

Alec had been trying not to wake Shiori, but upon seeing her with her eyes open, he walked over, with Rurii bouncing along behind him.

“Erm... Good morning,” said Shiori. “Sorry, I guess I slept in again.”

“Don’t worry about it. You’re always up so early. There’s no harm in taking it easy once in a while.”

Alec dropped a kiss on Shiori’s lips in place of a “good morning,” and grinned.

“I did my utmost to hold back,” he said, “but if a mere taste leaves you like this, I’m going to have to be more controlled when the time comes. Probably best we shy away from doing anything before any big expeditions.”

“A...A ‘mere taste’? That was you holding back?”

“Yeah. The way you wriggle is so adorable that I can’t even begin to imagine—hrngh!”

Shiori couldn’t believe that her own lover would bring up something so embarrassing this early in the morning. She thrust her pillow into Alec’s face and went behind the room’s partition screen to get changed.
