Leone slowly opened his eyes.
For some reason, his body felt as heavy as lead. He also felt warm, so he initially thought that he might have a fever.
But when his vision slowly cleared up, he finally understood why he felt that way.
Yuni was currently hugging him, sleeping by his side. When awake, she looked sharp and fierce, and he never really noticed what she looked like beyond that. But now that she was peacefully asleep beside him, he realized that she was truly a beautiful lady.
However, the memory of her death once again appeared inside his head. The fear made him subconsciously reach out to hug her tightly, as if making sure she was alive and breathing.
Leone had no idea if he was dreaming or not. Was it a continuation of what he had seen? It didn't matter. He was happy enough to see her alive and sleeping by his side. It made the pain in his heart subside a bit.
Perhaps woken up by his sudden hug, Yuni also opened his eyes and found herself in Leone's embrace.
