Even if she was already wearing a bathrobe, was she still sane enough not to take a bath with him?

She couldn’t.

She just couldn’t!

“Didn’t you just say that your back hurts? I want to wash it for you. What if you slip if you did it by yourself?”

“Well…”

Yernia was with Cassian all day long.

At first, she couldn’t even look into his eyes out of embarrassment and it drove her insane.

But as time passed by, she got used to it.

She assumed the awkwardness would be gone by now but it turned out she still couldn’t handle them bathing together.

“I also want to look for my name since I couldn’t find it yesterday.”

“You!”

Yernia, who almost stumbled a bit, widened her narrowed eyes.

And here she thought you he was worried about her, but it was a trick.

“Hahaha! I’m kidding. We’ll just wash up.”

“You think I don’t know that you possessed a black heart?”

“I’m just trying to help you take a bath.”

“How could I trust you?”

“I’ll try not to do anything else.”

Yernia didn’t regret the time she spent with him.

However, her life became a little difficult due to body pains here and there.

Every step she took, she had to lie in bed due to the tingling ache.

Eventually, Yernia chose to wash up with Cassian.

Perhaps, nothing strange would happen as long as she wore at least a slip in the bath.

“I’m trusting you. Got it?”

As soon as permission was given, Cassian carried Yernia to the bathroom as water flowed unto the tub.

Yernia, who was tightly hugging Cassian’s neck, felt the water slowly wet her body.

Cassian sat while embracing Yernia, who was clinging unto him, and naturally sat on his lap.

“Oh, it’s warm.”

The reason why she didn’t ask him to drop her immediately was because she still felt uncomfortable every time she moved so she had to be on his lap to enter the bathtub, which was a little narrow for two people to wash.

When she decided to stay in the cabin for just one day, Yernia couldn’t think of anyone else.

She couldn’t afford to think of anyone else because she was scared and sad about the situation she was currently in.

After that, she couldn’t return to the barracks because she wasn’t feeling well.

Of course, Cassi,an, who was fine, came back to inform the troops who were looking for them about her condition and there was nothing she could do about it.

When something significant crossed her mind, Yernia suddenly asked, “How were you able to save me? I thought there was an urgent battle because you didn’t come.”

“You’re asking that just now?”

“You didn’t even give me the time to ask.”

In fact, Cassian had followed her like a dog all afternoon.

She felt strange and awkward the whole time that she couldn’t think of anything or anyone else except him who also kept trying to check on her condition.

“We must have crossed paths.”

Cassian, who had been thinking for a while, spewed out a lie.

Captain Reward had framed Yernia but she didn’t seem to realize it yet, so there was no need to let her know.

He was worried that Yernia might get hurt.

“I should have gone sooner. I’m sorry.”

“No, we can’t help it if our paths have crossed.”

After assuming that it was Captain Reward’s lie, Yernia eventually concluded that her suspicions might be wrong.

Cassian tapped Yernia’s nose playfully.”Let’s take a break here and return to the barracks. I have to go to battle again.”

“It’s taking longer than I thought. When can we go back to the capital?”

“Do you want to go back?”

To be honest, she wanted to go back to the capital because it was comfortable there.

However, it was impossible to say it in front of Cassian, who was leaving for the battlefield himself.

“No, I’m just curious.”

“If I do well, we can go back before my birthday or should it be after?”

Cassian’s birthday was last winter, and now it was already spring.

Whether it was spring or summer, it would take quite a long time for them to return to the capital from the North, where snow had accumulated.

“Do you want me to do well in the battlefield or not? Pick one.”

“Why are you making me choose?”

“Depending on what you choose, time can be shortened or lengthened.”

Yernia was dumbfounded.

The water warming her body up was making her shiver.

Yernia spoke as she watched the rippling water.

“Don’t get hurt.”

“Alright. Yernia will be upset if I get hurt, so I’ll be more careful because she’s important to me.”

Whether he returned late or early, the most important thing was that he was alive and well.

Yernia narrowed her eyes at him when she couldn’t tell whether he was teasing her or not.

The bathtub was cramped, so water flowed little by little every time they moved a bit.

She just left the candles she found at the cabin so it wouldn’t be dark, but they were also creating a strange yet cozy atmosphere once again.

Perceiving the erotic mood, Yernia splashed water at him for no reason.

“When I was young, I remembered I was mad at you because you sprayed water on me.”
