Theo couldn't sleep.
His eyes were shut for a while, but after getting tired of pretending, he slowly pried them open and looked at the person beside him.
It was Liyah!
She was practically fast asleep, hogging the blanket to herself as she stayed in her little corner. Her petite body was motionless, and her face was gentle. The serene night contributed to her ethereal beauty, but Theo wasn't really focused on that.
'I couldn't reject her request, and even when I offered to sleep on the ground, she insisted I sleep on the bed next to her…' He sighed. 'This is bothersome.'
He needed his rest, but the current situation made him too uncomfortable to relax.
In the end, he had no other choice but to pick up the only thing he could use to pass the time: the Divine Chronicles of Antiquity. It had been over a week since he started reading it, but he still wasn't done with his first tale.
