At that moment, from behind me came a gentle light that filled the room, like a drape delicately unfurling.
The bed creaked, and I gasped when I looked back behind me.
“—Amazing.”
Standing there majestically was a white lion with a lush, luxuriant mane.
His clear, golden eyes were staring at me.
I was shaking with the emotions that welled up in me.
He was maybe about four meters long?
His body was large, and so were his limbs, which were covered in shimmering, silvery-white fur.
That figure was filled with a tranquil atmosphere, so full of divinity that I was afraid to touch it.
“Jill, is it okay if I touch you?”
I swallowed, slowly extending a hand, which was sweaty from nervousness.
Jill let out a low, guttural growl that was fit for the king of beasts, then spun around and plopped down on the bed.
“—Uu, uwaaa.”

“Alii, Alii! Pa’r rb oieoos….rb ubbv. Cwjhlcu. Cjt……P’nf cfnfg ofia rb tjqqs.”
I buried my face in the mane that I had combed with my fingers.
Grrr. With a rumble in his throat, Jill vigorously pushed my face away with his forelimbs, to make me let go. Even his paws were so much bigger than my face. His paws went squish squish as they clung to my face.
Sorry Jill, but as a lover of fluffy creatures, this was a heavenly reward. Happily, I hugged his forelimbs, rubbing the elastic paws and pressing them to my cheeks.
Jill snorted loudly in dissatisfaction at my lack of remorse. Meanwhile, his long, thick and magnificent tail thumped on the sheets.
“Sorry, are you sulking?”
“Gaoo gaoo~”
“Fufufu. I have no idea what you’re saying, but you’re cute anyway.”
“……..Gao.”
Actually, I somehow could tell what he wanted to say. After all, if nothing else his eyes conveyed his meaning very eloquently.
Still, thinking that I wouldn’t get a second chance at this after all, I shamelessly leaned against Jill’s belly. I also didn’t forget to take deep, deep whiffs.
“So hey, can you stay like this until I fall asleep?”
“……”
“No?”
“……”
I coaxed Jill while wrapping my arms around his neck, which was even thicker than a log.
Jill didn’t say anything at all for a while, but in the end he gave in.
He changed his position so that he was now wrapped around my body. Then his tail gently tapped my stomach, as if to lull me to sleep.
“….Haa. I’m sure I’ll remember this day for the rest of my life.”
Jill was really warm.
Whether Jill was in human form or animal form, when I was wrapped up in his arms, I felt an irresistible urge to cry. Today, I knew for the first time that feeling safe could bring about tears.
The beautiful mountains that Jill cherished like a treasure, and the landscape looking down from there. In the back of my closed eyelids, those sceneries vividly came to life.
“I’ve never seen the sea, but it must be just as enchanting as that reddish, rippling sea of grass that we saw. And also…..”
The thoughts I had worried whether to say or not naturally formed into words.
“……Hey Jill, you said you’re a very jealous person, but I think I’m even more jealous than you. Although I heard from Seth that it’s normal for you to make a harem, I don’t think I’ll allow it. ……Sorry. I think it’s impossible for me to be able to love like other people.”
That was the discomfort I felt when I had that misunderstanding about the shadow.
It was jealousy.
I had a very, very troublesome personality. I couldn’t honestly act spoiled, and I also couldn’t honestly convey my thoughts.
And yet I would get very jealous, and I would end up wishing that he only ever looked at me.
Was I really enough?
Just when I thought that, Jill licked my cheek and gave me a playful bite.
Jill himself probably thought he was licking me lightly, but his body was so big that of course just one lick sent my head swaying and my face got soaked.
“Wait— my face,”
“…….Fuuun.”
I wiped my drool-covered face against Jill’s body.
—You being “troublesome” or whatever, at this point that’s too late to say.
There were no words, but I could feel that I was hearing Jill’s voice. Smiling, I closed my eyes.
“……I guess it’s because I don’t want this reward to be taken away from me. I’m not going to say anything else. Good night, Jill.”
Sweet scent and warm body heat.
It was a very happy thing, falling into dreamland whilst wrapped in this warmth. And so, my heart was moved.
Fwufffff~
Thank you for the chapter!
After chapters upon chapters of drama and frustration we were rewarded with this super fluffy and sweet chapter, ahhhh… why is it so short.
So… that lick… can we assume that if Jill was in human form he would kiss Lilius? And since Seth said before that Jill is a weird lion, who won’t make a harem, Lilius will be his only honey.
Thank you for the chapter!!!
ahhh!! too cute!!
