The Political Marriage of the Beastman Prince and Healer Princess - CH 15

When His Highness Gresis has eaten his meal, he usually lies down on the bed with his back turned.

However, the dinner on the third day after His Highness Gresis became a beast was a little different.

When I was eating, Prince Gresis, who had finished his meal, was unusually lying down facing me.

“Did you go to the herb garden today too?”

When I was about to finish eating, His Highness Gresis spoke to me for the first time.

Even though he’s fine, he has to rest in bed, so maybe he was free.

“Yes, everyone is so kind to me, so it’s a pleasure. Look at the freshly made herbal tea today. Yesterday, we picked the leaves, and this is what I bagged.”

I was happy to be spoken to, so I sat down on the bed to show him the herb sachet.

Then the black tail came on my knee.

What does this mean?

Judging from the atmosphere of His Highness Gresis, it didn’t seem like he was angry.

“Um. . . what happened?”

“What do you mean?”

“Um. . . it makes me want to touch you when you’re this close.”

When I turned my eyes to the tail, there was a momentary pause.

“. . . If you want to touch it, I don’t mind.”

I unexpectedly received permission.

“Then, I’ll take your word for it.”

I gently stroked it.

“What a nice touch. May I touch you some more?”

The animal ears twitched.

Is it useless?

“Do whatever you want. It’s surprisingly comfortable to be petted. Instead, you’d better get some rest. You’re overworked.”

It seems that His Highness Gresis was worried about me.

He’s a kind person after all.

Suddenly, a black panther’s large front paw climbed on me and pulled me down on my back on the bed.

The front legs are still on my body, and the left half of my body is wrapped in black fur.

“I’ll fall asleep if I feel so comfortable.”

“Isn’t it a little better?”

“No way. . . I’ll be done with a little bit. I’ll go back to my room and rest.”

I tried to get up, but I couldn’t move because Prince Gresis’s forelimbs, which were quite heavy, were on my stomach.

It’s a comfortable weight, so it’s extra trouble.

Oh, how fluffy and comfortable it is.

I could have tried to escape if it was uncomfortable, but I gave up early.

Noticing the light leaking from the curtains, I opened my eyes.

After all, I lost to sleepiness and greeted the morning.

“!?”

No fluffy!

I was sleeping with His Highness Gresis, who had returned to his human form.

And naked!

One arm rests on my stomach and holds me tightly.

Even in the same situation, the beast and the human type felt completely different.

Even if the beast was healed, in the case of the human form, it was nothing but embarrassment and confusion.

Oh what should I do, I can’t move. If I force myself to move and wake him up, I’m sure both of us will feel awkward for a while.

Please don’t let His Highness Gresis wake up yet. And only now go back to the black panther.

I felt like praying to God.

Luckily, his arm loosened and I was released.

Now!

I quickly got off the bed and continued to the door without making any noise.

I carefully turned the doorknob with my right hand, opening the door just enough to get through, and reached out to the knob in my room with my left hand.

I hold the know with my left hand so that it doesn’t move, enter the room, and close the door.

Finally, slowly, slowly, I turned the doorknob back.

Oh, what a surprise.

“Good morning, Your Highness Princess Lilith. I’m here to help you prepare.”

When I calmed down a little, the maid, Mai, came.

When I had my clothes arranged by Mai, I heard another knock on the door.

Unexpectedly, My shoulders twitched.

“Y, Yes.”

“I had the meal prepared in my room as usual. Come when you’re ready.”

“I understand.”

It’s obvious, but I don’t need to help anymore, and he’s not a black panther. That’s why the two of us eat facing each other at the table where I usually eat alone.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the humanoid Prince Gresis.

Of course, he is properly dressed.

I wonder if my behavior is suspicious.

When I glanced at His Highness Gresis, our eyes met.

“What’s wrong? No appetite?”

“Ah, no, I’m just unfamiliar with it. Should I say the black panther was better. . . oh, but I’m glad you’re feeling better.”

“It’s the first time I’ve been told that black panthers are good.”

His Highness Gresis laughed for the first time.

At that time, I felt a bouncing sensation around my chest, and my face was getting more and more flushed.

I became more and more embarrassed to make eye contact with him, and involuntarily lowered my head.

“What’s wrong?”

“Um. . . I want to touch your tail. . . huh. . .”

I answered without thinking. I’m not lying about what I said, but it’s not what I really mean.

“Do whatever you want.”

His Highness Gresis’s tail was placed on my knees.

When I stroked the only remaining fluffy, I felt that my feelings somehow calmed down.

“It looks like you’re having fun, but why don’t you eat now?”

“Ah, yes, that’s right.”

I completely forgot about the meal and continued stroking it.

There is already nothing on the plate of Prince Gresis, who is looking at me with his chin resting on his hand. It seems that he had already finished his meal before I knew it.

I need to eat quickly and stop wasting time.

I hurriedly reached for the cutlery.

“Don’t rush, just take it easy.”

“Yes. . .”

You read my mind.

Even though I calmed down with fluffy, in the end I ended up eating while being watched by His Highness.

Ugh. . . so embarrassing.
