Did you see it?

I swallowed the words I couldn’t utter. 

'This is a sudden question, but did you happen to notice that I’m a wolf?’

I couldn’t ask. 

As I mumbled without saying anything, Noelier, who was shaking his head, opened his mouth. 

"Ah. Come to think of it, you were out for a walk." 

"...What?" 

Walk?

"I was very surprised that you suddenly disappeared. You must have been in bad shape." 

"......?" 

Disappeared?

What are you talking about all of a sudden? 

Without understanding, I nodded, and then I said, 'Ah!' and nodded more vigorously. 

"Yeah! That's right! I had a fever so I wanted to go for a walk." 

"So that's why you were out so late." 

"That's it!" 

“After you left, you were so tired that you fell asleep right away.” 

"That's right! That’s all correct!" 

With those words, it was evident that he did not notice that I had turned into a wolf, presumably. 

Oh, the timing was right!

I smiled broadly and clapped back and forth.

“......”

Then the corners of his lips began to twitch.

"......?"

What's funny? 

I shook my head with a puzzled look. 

Noelier covered his mouth with his hand. 

"Why?" 

At my question, Noelier shook his head apologetically and lowered his hand. But there was still a smile on his face. 

"I'm sorry. I suddenly thought of something else." 

"......?" 

"Um, are you feeling better?" 

Right. I was sick. 

I checked the condition of my body.

My head, my nose, and my throat were as quiet as usual. 

My cold seemed to be all better.

"Yes. I'm fine." 

"I'm glad. Going out for a long walk seems to have worked." 

"That's right...." 

It seems that somehow he gave strength to the word "walking"...…but it doesn’t matter. 

I thought so and smiled. 

As if my forced smile wasn't burdensome, he followed me and smiled. 

“Next time, I want to go with you.”

“Together?" 

"Yes." He said so, slowly reaching out. 

As if asking for permission, a white hand hovered near my face. 

I waited patiently for the next move. 

His hesitating finger touched my cheek. 

The warmth I felt before I woke up flowed in.

I thought my face would turn red again, but contrary to what I thought, I had a calm face. 

As he tidied up my messy hair from sleeping, he smiled a little and took his hand away. 

“It means that if you catch a cold again, find me instead of going out recklessly.”

“……” 

“It is dangerous to go out in a sick state.” 

"......." 

The sunlight coming through the window was pouring over Noelier. 

A friendly tone, a gentle touch, and a warm body temperature. 

I felt weird. 

I couldn't even answer yes. 

Was it because I was with him? 

It felt like it was getting a little too hot. 

"Eve?" 

"......" 

It was when I was staring blankly at him as if possessed by something. 

"Ruby, I can’t breathe..."

"Be quiet!" 

"But..." 

"It's perfect right now. Don't ruin the mood!" 

A murmur of voices crept between the two of us. 

It was like pouring cold water on me. 

I turned my head to the children. 

The children were whispering with serious faces. 

"I told you. We need to be quiet to set the mood." 

"But Ruby’s covering my mouth, it’s suffocating…"

"I’m doing this because I’m afraid you’ll say something strange again. Don’t you see the atmosphere?" 

“Bad…”

What else are you trying to do? 

Last time, you secretly went out and that incident happened!

I lowered my body towards the children with my eyes open. 

The children continued talking as if they didn't even know I was listening. 

"But Ruby, I don't think it’s needed.”

"Why?" 

“Doesn’t your brother fit all of the conditions?”

"It's still not enough. My brother doesn't have many tears...." 

"What are you two talking about?" 

"Ahh!" 

At my meddling, the children trembled as if struck by lightning.

It was worth seeing them hurriedly falling from me. I put my hand on my waist and furrowed one eyebrow. 

“Uh, older sister…” 

“Sister…” 

"What are you up to? Huh?" 

I narrowed my brows with a grim look. 

Zion mumbled and said nothing, and Rachel glanced at me and Noelier behind me with a puzzled look.

"Rachel?" 

When I asked again, Rachel trembled and looked up at me. 

She nodded as if to answer quickly, and she hugged my waist with aegyo. 

“Do you think I’ll fall for this?” 

“Ugh, it's hot.”

“......”

“I think there's going to be a fire....”

"Strengthen your arms. You’ll be in trouble if you fall." 

There's nothing I can do about the fire. 

I hugged Rachel tightly. 

Rachel clung to me like a cute cat.

"Is it cool?"

"Yes. I really like it. After all, there is only my sister." 

I pat Rachel on the back, letting the cold air flow. A pleasant giggling voice spread behind her back as if she was in a good mood.

I patted Rachel for a long time with my back against Noelier. 

“……” 

Then I turned my head toward the gaze I suddenly felt.

“……” 

“……” 

“What are you two doing?” 

Rachel and Noelier seemed to have exchanged glances that only the siblings could understand. Their gazes felt as hot as their magic. 

At my question, the eyes of the siblings fell. 

They smiled at me and shook their heads as if they had made a promise. 

“Nothing······" 

"It’s nothing, Sister." 

Rachel rapped Noelier's words. 

Then, naturally, she laid her face in my arms. 

"As expected, my sister is the best." 

Ooh, it's cute! 

Where did such a lovely child come from?

It had been a long time since I had forgotten the Little Red Riding Hood in the devastating novel. 

I smiled happily and patted Rachel. 

"I like it when my sister strokes my hair." 

"Really?" 

"Yes. How about Sister?" 

"Me too. I like it too." 

I rubbed my face against Rachel's hair. I could do anything for such a lovely child.

"Ummm. I see. Sister likes this." 

Rachel lifted her head in her arms and murmured, glancing at Noelier. Then she suddenly turned her head away. 

"......" 

Noelier looked at Rachel without a word. 

Isn’t it a bit upsetting? 

Even if Rachel followed me well, her real family was Noelier.

I glanced at Noelier and looked around. When our eyes met, he smiled again. When I faced his sunny smile, I suddenly remembered falling asleep without knowing the world in his arms. 

'Crazy!' 

I quickly turned my head. 

Maybe it was because of Rachel, it felt like a fever was rising on my face. 

Then, I heard the sound of a tongue click.

"There is no need for this or that..." 

"Rachel?" 

"Yes?" 

Rachel looked up at me, blinking her big eyes as if something was wrong.

The purest and clearest eyes twinkled. 

“Cute!” 

I screamed in pain and hugged Rachel tightly. 

"Ugh!"

Then Zion sprang to his feet. There was a slight sense of betrayal on Zion's face. 

"Sister, me?" 

"You're cute too." 

"Really?" 

"Sister's mouth hurts, Zion."*

(TL/N: It hurts from all the compliments and lip service she has given.)

"Then hug me too!" 

"Wait, argh!" 

Like he wasn’t a wolf, Zion ran to me and hugged me. 

I was caught holding the two children in a mess, and I struggled to get out. 

"I’m suffocating, guys...." 

While I was struggling, my eyes met Noelier. 

Noelier, who was looking at the children in my arms with strange eyes, smiled brightly. 

'Why are you doing that?' 

I tried to ask if there was anything inconvenient, but I had to turn my head again because of the screaming children.
