Always More

Ariel saw the ash-grey aura entering her room.

She closed the door and instantly put on the spell to make the room soundproof.

"Hey, you didn't get bored, did you?" Ariel asked Damien once he came into view.

Damien shook his head. "No. I got to secretly listen to most of the conversations. How can that be boring?"

Ariel chuckled and passed the blanket to Damien. She pointed her brows at the armchair and said, "I would have shared the bed with you if we were still young. But we aren't so…"

Damien turned to look at the chair. He walked and lightly touched the armrest and said, "I am lucky to even get a chair in your room." He looked back at her and said, "But I could just lie down in the living room or any other empty room."

"People might stumble upon you just like how I did. So, feel free to sleep here." Ariel then went and sat down on her bed.
