Once the night was over, the soldiers were awakened by the sun rays.
"Good morning, Ava, I hope that you slept great." He greeted her with a warm smile.
She looked at him with tired eyes.
"You… Because of you I barely managed to get a wink of sleep!" She pouted, stomping her leg in a cute manner.
"Hm? But I didn't do anything? If you wanted me to do something, you should have just told me." He tilted his head to the side, his smile not leaving his face.
Ava quickly looked away to hide her blush. 'I am certain now! He is definitely doing this on purpose!'
Seeing that Michael was continuing to feign ignorance, she sighed before dismissing the matter. Whatever the case, she had dragged him into her tent to keep watch over him. It had been her fault she hoped for something more to happen.
'Not to forget, he was in the middle of the enemy ranks not too long ago, only to be stabbed before even managing to rest.' Ava felt guilt washing over her heart.
