Chapter 42: she knows

The footsteps of an unknown individual marched down an empty hallway.

Their rhythm was calm and composed. Each step they took resounded with a distinct echo as they made their way through the darkness.

In the distance was a wooden door. Donning a fancy exterior and a bronze handle.

The figure upped their pace, moving towards it.

It would only be a couple more moments until they finally reached it and opened up.

''Commander?'' A female voice spoke.

The figure had now entered the room on the other side and closed the door behind themselves. In a brighter light than before, multiple of their features could now be distinguished.

Pure white hair, sky blue eyes, and pale skin.

They wore what seemed to be a dark military attire made for women. On the side of their chest, there laid multiple badges of honour.

Their height was significantly short on the other hand. Meaning that they were quite small.

''Lilith?'' A man's voice spoke from the other side of the room. ''What are you doing here? Also, haven't you heard of knocking?''

Lilith smiled warmly, acknowledging his presence. ''Why? Were you doing something I was not supposed to see?''

''Nah... Not this time, at least.'' The man admits, rubbing the back of his head.

The man had light brown, close to blonde hair. It was medium-length, enough for it to be slicked back over his ears.

He had almost the same eyes as Lilith, though, they were a gloomier shade of cyan instead.

His face was almost akin to a baby. No facial hair, no pimples, nothing that could make him less attractive.

He donned a similar military uniform, the difference being that his was meant for men, and was brown in color.

There weren't any badges on his chest, but there was a large coat over his shoulders. Making him all the more fashionable.

He had a rather different stature. Instead of being short and small, he was quite large and tall. His forearm muscles bulging from underneath his sleeves.

''Pardon?'' Lilith tilted her head. ''What do you mean by 'Not this time'?''

''N-Nothing.'' He stammered, quickly coughing afterward. ''That doesn't matter now. Is there something you needed?''

''...'' Lilith scoffed. ''It is like I only go up to you when I need something. Can I not just want to spend some time with my lover?''

''...'' The man looked down at her, softly beginning to blush. ''F-Fair enough... Then, what would you like to do?''

Lilith walked past him, basically inviting herself into his room and sitting down on his couch.

She sunk deeply into her chosen spot, perhaps due to her rather heavy weight as a prototype fighter unit.
