Fostering the Male Lead - Chapter 51

Our time together was deeply intertwined with unexpected events, but as a result, we made good memories. It sure was a chaotic cohabitation, but it was also a valuable experience because I got a good friend through it.

‘I wouldn’t have been able to speak with him, the Crown Prince, if it hadn’t been for this.’

I reached out and gently stroked Sihael’s fur.

“Rosetta?”

“It’s something I’ve been looking forward to for a long time, so I should be happy, but I’m not sure why I’m a little sad.”

I became attached to him more than I thought, to the extent that I even wanted to ask him to stay as a wolf a little longer. I didn’t want to send him to anyone else.

‘This must be precisely why it is advised not to recklessly take in a puppy on a temporary basis.’

The idea that we had to say our goodbyes to each other the next day made my heart break. I was completely absorbed in images of us washing, changing clothes, and even resting in bed. Sihael seemed unusually ecstatic, probably because he expected to be able to return to his human form the next day. I took a close look at Sihael’s face, who was resting next to me.

As if etching each of his characteristics into my mind’s eye.

“Your eyes are tearing up.”

“Because today is our last day. I’m trying to engrave you in my eyes so that I don’t forget you, Your Highness.”

“You’re making it sound as if I’m going to die.”

You’re not going to die, but once you imprint on Lilliana, I won’t be able to see you like this, so calling it our last day is right.

‘I don’t think he’ll finish the last imprint right away, but… I don’t know what’s going to happen.’

After gazing at Sihael for a long time, I grabbed both of his cheeks and kissed him.

Kiss~

“A good night kiss and a goodbye kiss.”

Sihael’s eyes widened into large circles, as if he didn’t expect me to kiss him first. I gave the sweetest smile I could muster.

“Good night.”

I could see him even with my eyes closed since his image had been etched on my retina. I closed my eyes to visualize him and etched him into my consciousness once more.

Heavy!

As if I were suffering from sleep paralysis, I was unable to move my body. It seemed as if I were being crushed by a massive boulder, and breathing was difficult.

I naturally assumed it was Sihael who had gotten on top of me again, so I swung my arms at him. But what touched my hand was not his fluffy fur, but smooth skin.

I could feel the warmth radiating through my palms. Thump thump thump, a slightly faster heartbeat was felt beneath my fingertips. I fumbled with my hands, feeling the soft texture under my fingers.

It was smooth.

Also, firm and hot.

“It’d be best if you stop touching me.”

When I heard a deep, muffled voice right next to my ears, I lifted my heavy sleep glazed eyelids.

‘Sihael, you bastard, I told you not to talk next to my ear.’

I tried pulling Sihael’s fur to punish him  but what greeted me was a firm chest.

“… Why’s your chest…?”

“Good morning,”

“Huh, oh, oh… who…?”

I couldn’t tell if what I was seeing now was a dream or reality because I hadn’t yet awoken. A handsome man I’d never seen before smiled at me, the corners of his eyes curving. But that smile was strangely familiar.

The eyes that stared at me were as warm as the sun, and his lips curled up in a friendly smile.

I stared at the man blankly and then lowered my gaze.

Bare chest, bare arms, waist, and…

“Aargh!”

What the… why aren’t you wearing anything?!

Startled, I pushed the man’s chest and pulled up the blanket to cover my body. Then, the man’s bare body, which was barely covered with a blanket, became completely naked.

“Aagh! Shit, what is that!”

Why, why are you not wearing anything?!

I had no choice but to throw the blanket that covered my body at him.

“Cover yourself! I told you to cover yourself!”

“Rosetta. Calm down.”

“How can I possibly calm down now?!”

I curled up and covered my face. I could feel the heat on my skin.

Shining silver hair and bright yellow golden eyes…

And that voice was unmistakably Sihael’s.

No, just by looking at the collar that hung loosely around his neck, I knew it was him. Who would wear a dog leash, unless the man was a pervert?

“Your Highness, it’s you, right?”

“Yes.”

“Fuc, why did you suddenly become a human?!”

I stifled the profanity that escaped my mouth out of habit. However, I couldn’t help but swear. He hadn’t even met Liliana yet; how on earth did he become human?!!!

Sihael shrugged his shoulders.

“I have no idea. When I opened my eyes, I was back to my normal self.”

“Is that possible?”

“I believe the empress’s poison has been detoxified.”

No, all the troubles I endured in order to find Liliana were in vain. I pushed my palm to my hurting temple.

“First, let’s cover your body.”

Let’s first put him in Leonard’s clothes as soon as possible and get a tailor to adjust them to his size.

After that…

I was briefly organising what I needed to do in the future when Sihael interrupted my thoughts.

“Rosetta.”

“Yes?”

“Am I handsome?”

Mr male lead, is that what you should first say after waking up? Even though he looked like a pervert with his lower bottom just covered with a blanket, he was still very…

“…yes.”

He was very handsome.

He perhaps liked my answer as he smiled happily like a satiated beast.
