Only with Your Heart

~Moon Time (3)~

Then, in a moment while blinking, Lukrov returned to me.

And he lifted me up while looking at every part of my body, and then he spoke with a sad voice while stroking my hair

Did you get hurt somewhere ?

I was barely able to shake my head.

Lukrov tries to bring me to bed immediately with caution and strength that cannot be resisted. Then he sat me on the edge of the bed, and Lukrov knelt on one knee in front of me

His irresistible eyes that were staring at me made my chest tightened

No, Lukrov. Well that just because the moon came I couldnt go to the cafeteria because I felt sick, probably because due to that as well

While shrinking in shame, I managed to say so.

In any case, I wanted to avoid the act of love during menstruation, so I had to let him know at the right time. However, it was embarrassing to be noticed in this way.

Also, Im sorry that it seems that Ive made him worry

Moon?

Lukrov replied in a tone that said (I dont know what it is, please explain.)

Chizuru turned bright red.

Thats its Womens Day. Do you know? So tonight, we cant sleep together

Basically, men in this world-especially the knights who live by exchanging lives seemed to avoid the act of love during that period, making the womans moon thing ominous or unclean. Ive heard that some couples have separate rooms without even touching their partner during menstruation.

Lukrov didnt have that kind of innocence, but even 14 years ago, he was like its postponed only during her period, and he just snuggled up and slept.

Moon thing

Lukrov said again.

If you are persistent like this, I will feel like Im being bullied.

I made a firm expression as much as possible and made a tongue twister.

Well, its menstrual. Im sorry I got my sheets and clothes dirty. But dont worry because Ill clean them tomorrow. And I cant do that during the period? The sheets are also dirty. But I cant sleep with you tonight

To that extent, Lukrov whispered and pressed his index finger against Chizurus lips.

Is it really just the moon?

Oh, stop it already.

My face was bright red and I just nodded silently.

Are you not injured? where else do you feel sick?

Im fine

okay if you say so

The tension disappeared visibly from Lukrovs facial expression.

Arde said you were terribly ill. you didnt even come to eat, and when I wondered what happened so I came here and there was blood all over the room. Just imagine what thoughts were in my mind

what he described in the room was a bit of an exaggeration to me, but from his perspective, is that the case?

I whispered in a small voice, Im sorry.

Lukrov shook his head and smiled gently.

Why apologizing?

That Ive messed up the place a lot and made a strange misunderstanding and, we cant do it for a few days from tonight.

I dont believe it anymore.

However, Lukrov was the one to declare it the first time he placed me on this bed while back (You open your legs here just to satisfy my desires)

There is no love or rejection and I just accepted his words, and Lukrov hasnt turned it over yet. In other words, by the definition he gave me, Me, who cannot do it at night, has no meaning to Lukrov.

Of course, I believe that this is no longer the case

No, I just want to believe it.

Ill accept an apology for the misunderstanding, But I dont care about anything else. Dont worry

The expression that Lukrov showed was more painful than my own

But

Its okay You dont have to do anything. Now, I will change the sheets and just let me sleephere with you

In a sweet, gentle voice like a sweet candy, Lukrov whispered to my ear.

When Lukrov moved me to the chair he took off the dirty sheets with surprising dexterity and took the new sheets out of the chest of drawers. I tried to help with putting on the new sheets, but it seemed that it had rather disturbed the sheet and the two laughed aloud while pulling each others side of sheets.

All the dirty cloth was tucked into the basket at the end of the room.

That night, the two of us just hugged each otherand went to sleep.

And it was midnight of that day

Thatsheappeared.
