Fostering the Male Lead

the running Nanabi.
Following me, Sihael also waved his paw at her.

* * *

After seeing off Nanabi, I threw off my tight shoes and lay down on the sofa.
Then Sihael, who was following me, also threw himself on the sofa.

He didn’t even consider his massive stature.
His butt almost landed on my head.

“Your Highness, I almost got crushed, so please be careful.”

Then Sihael tickled my cheek with his tail as if he was aware of what he did.
I felt at ease when my entire body was buried in Sihael’s fur, as if I had found my home in my heart.

I was always on edge after arriving in the capital, but now I felt extremely relaxed and drowsy.

‘No, I shouldn’t doze off.’

The drowsiness persisted even when I pinched my thighs or bit the soft flesh in my mouth.

It can’t go on like this.
Now that I am in charge of protecting Sihael, I could not leave him for the lands of dreams.
I raised my body and opened my eyes wide.

“Your Highness, please hit me once.”

A slap on the cheek from Sihael’s strong tail would bring me back to my senses.
However, Sihael did not understand my words and tilted his head.

If we can’t communicate with words, then we can communicate using body language.

“With this, like this.
All right? Please hit me hard enough to wake me up.”

I grabbed his tail and pretended to slap me on the cheek.
Maybe he finally understood, Sihael’s eyes twinkled as if he were telling me to trust him.

“Come on, hit me!”

When I closed my eyes and shouted, I felt his fur brush against  my cheek.

‘It’s coming…’

Kiss~

“What?”

When I opened my eyes, there was silver hair all over my field of vision.
What’s going on here? The unexpected development made my shoulders shrug.

I’m awake, but this isn’t right.

“I asked for a slap on the cheek, not a kiss…”

Sihael didn’t listen to me even when I grabbed his tail and shook it.

Kiss, kiss, kiss.

The tip of my lips slowly relaxed and twitched at the relentless onslaught of kisses.
I, who initially grumbled at Sihael’s thief-like kisses, eventually fell for his cuteness.

“You’re so cute.”

If I died right now, the most likely cause of death would be a heart attack.

I grabbed my throbbing heart and crouched down.
Then Sihael, restless, tapped my head with his nose.

“Woof! Woof! Awwooo-.”

Oh, I couldn’t take it any longer, so I reached out towards Sihael, who was running around me.

“Woof?”

“How can you be so cute!”

I grabbed his face and pouted my lips.
Sihael blinked when my lips touched his cheek.
I showered kisses on Sihael’s face, from his head to his cheeks, even his nose and mouth.

Surprised by the non-stop shower of kisses, Sihael looked at me in a state of fascination.
He looked so cute while blinking his eyes in a daze.
