OMG!

 The story reached 100k reads!

 And of all times, I'm having writer's block now?!

 No words can express how frustrated I am at the moment! I barely finished this one chapter!

 It took me two days!

 I rewrote it six times!

 Argh! I'm so annoyed!

 But at the same time, I'm so happy!

 Nothing I wrote reached 100k reads before I even finished it!

 Thank you for everyone's congratulations!

 


Wriothesley's POV

 I just looked at the ceiling, unwilling to move.

 I woke up in my bed instead of the couch in my office.

 That was fine. I'm pretty sure I remember seeing Neuvillette at some point. It was probably him who brought me here, No one else would dare.

 Okay, Sigewinne probably would.

 But!

 Why am I only wearing my boxers again?!

 I rolled over, burying my face in the pillow.

 I didn't just randomly strip in front of Neuvillette again, right?!

 Does he even know about the other time?

 We never talked about how much he knew about what his less restrained side had been doing.

 Ugh!

 But if I really did it again...

 No!

 Definitely not!

 I was sleeping so deeply I don't even know when he brought me back. There is no way I would wake up purely to...

 "Ugh!"

 Okay!

 That's it!

 That's enough!

 I'm just not going to mention it!

 I doubt Neuvillette of all people would bring it up.

 So that's it!

 We'll just never speak of this incident.

 I got out of bed and took a shower before putting on some clothes.

 Looking at the clock, it was still relatively early, so I doubt Neuvillette would be gone for work already.

 I walked into the living room fully expecting to see a certain dragon, but...

 "Neuv? Neuvillette?"

 No?

 Did he leave already?

 It's six in the morning.

 No matter how much work he has left, starting this early isn't-

 Crack.

 Huh?

 I looked down to see shattered pieces of a broken cup underneath my shoe along with a puddle of water. I also spotted a fallen bottle on the counter, its contents dripping onto the floor.
