So, they have the illusion that they can forget about this tense relationship at any time and go back to the comfortable and playful relationship they had before.
Support Novellate!

That fact gave her a strange sense of security, and something like the curiosity of the unknown fueled her heart which was beating like crazy.
Finally, feeling strangely elated, Julia nodded. It was a very subtle movement that could be detected without even blinking.
'No, I wish I hadn't seen it.'
Julla bit her lip, suddenly feeling scared. She even had the contradictory thought that she hoped Endymion hadn't seen her signal just now.
But unfortunately, it was just a vain hope.
Endymion opened his eyes and kissed her nape as if he had been waiting. His lips touched the exact spot he had touched earlier, making a wet sound.
Julia's eyes widened and she was startled, so she covered that part. Endymion as if he had expected her to do that, leisurely slid up and lightly kissed her along her jawline.
"Ah."
Touch, touch.
The soft and refreshing feeling made her body feel ticklish. Her stomach felt ticklish as if she had swallowed a lot of dandelion seeds, and she felt like she was going to cry.
Finally, Julia pushed Endymion's face away and sobbed.
"This, this seems strange...'
"It hasn't even started yet."
A voice that gently cuts off complaints. At first glance, It sounds like affectionate soothing, so Julia doesn't notice Endymion's fingers entwining tightly between hers and pressing her down onto the bed...
Endymion gently kissed her wet eyes with his lips. Julia trembled as the unfamiliar sensation slowly soaked her entire body.
'...You can do this with another woman?'
Her whole body was twisted and burning like a fireball, but surprisingly, she didn't feel as much of a sense of rejection as she had expected. Except for the fact that her nerves were getting more and more tense as the stimulating sensations built up. She felt like she was being cherished in a different way than before, and she was strangely looking forward to what would happen next.
'This, with another woman?'
As the ticklish and soft contact continued, Julia's mind was filled with only that thought. The thought of a fictional character lying in this bed in her place and doing this with Endymion made her eyes sparkle.
"Ugh."
The moment Endymion kissed her between her collarbones, Julia bit her lips tightly and trembled as if struck by lightning. As tears flowed down her face, Endymion slowly took the moisture away with his lips.
He met Julia's pale face with tear-filled, purple eyes that looked ready to burst into flames.
'No.'
She hates that Mion likes another woman.
At that moment, the lips that had moved down gently untied the string that had tied Julia's nightgown. She shivered reflexively as her skin was exposed to the outside air.
Julia bit her lips tightly as she sighed.
She wanted to be selfish. She wanted Mion to stay by her side and be with her like he is now.
At that moment, Julia's soft skin was visible through the loosened fabric. Endymion's hot lips left a mark on it as if engraving a brand. The secret touch made her eyes and stomach boil dizzily.
“Ah!”
Finally, Julia knew what she had to do.
Julia moved her hand, which was clasped tightly under Endymion's palm.
At first, he tried not to let her go as if he was holding her captive, but when Julia didn't stop, Endymion, with his eyes blazing like a ferocious beast, finally released his hold.
Julia, with tears in her eyes, shook off Endymion's arms and pulled both hands away.
"Mion..."
And then she pulled Endymion, whose eyes were distorted with pain, towards her and kissed him.
The soft lips and the flowing lips met as if they had found a match. The lips that had been frozen in surprise drew a curve, and then immediately captured Julia's face perfectly with a firm hand. Soon, their breaths began to mingle without a single gap.
The body was pressed down more forcefully.
"Yeah, ahmm."
Julia realized as she kissed Endymion that she and Mion were no longer childhood friends. But Julia didn't want to stop.
Even if their relationship can't go back to how it was before.
***
"She just fell asleep, so I'll come in Iater."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
A rumbling voice mixed in between my hazy consciousness.
Julia tried to open her eyes at the sound of her bedroom door opening and closing but failed. Her body felt heavy as soaked cotton and aching and numb as if she had been eaten so hard that she could not move properly.
Eventually, Julia tried to raise her head several times before falling into a deep sleep as if she had fainted.
Chirp chirp.
"Ugh..."
And it was nearing noon when she came to her senses to the sound of birds.
Julia opened her mouth and opened her mouth, waking up to the bright, piercing sunlight streaming in through the curtains.
The bed, which had been spotlessly clean, was now a mess with the sheets all rumpled, and her once smooth, white skin was covered in marks big and small, except for her face.
As Julia blankly stared at the chaos, memories of last night, or rather, until dawn, flashed before her eyes like a panorama.
Ouch. Her mouth fell open wide as if it was going to fall off on its own.
"Ugh!"
Aaaah. Finally, Julia couldn't stand the embarrassment and screamed internally as she abruptly sat up. Then, without any strength in her limbs, she fell back down onto the bed.
Knock knock.
"Excuse me, Your Majesty. Have you been coughing?"
"Ah... listen... Cough, cough!"
Julia raised her voice, pretending to be calm, but a dry cough broke out because of her scratchy throat.
The maids cautiously opened the bedroom door and came in. Julia didn't know what to do and couldn't even make eye contact with her face red as if it was going to burst, but the veteran maids skillfully went about their business.
After tidying up the bedding and bringing her some warm tea that was good for recovering from fatigue, shr took her straight to the bathroom and washed her up. She had also prepared a fragrant bath with herbs and medicinal herbs, so Julia was able to effectively relieve her fatigue.
After finishing the massage that relieved her stiffness, her body felt much lighter and she had no trouble moving around.
"Your Majesty, the Duchess asked to have lunch with the Prince. You can come down after you're done preparing, but shall I invite you?"
"Oh, yes."
The maid asked, combing her long golden hair. Julia, who had recovered somewhat after her bath, nodded while looking at herself intently in the mirror.
She doesn't think it'll be noticeable at this point. It'll be natural, right?
The dress, with its rich lace and Iarge brooch, was formal yet perfectly draped over her body. Julia, with a satisfied expression, let her hair, which had been naturally styled by the maids, fall over her shoulders as she went downstairs.
"Your Majesty!"
As Julia was entering the restaurant used only by the Duke's family, a brown-haired man suddenly ran in from the door and hugged her leg.
'Ugh!'
Iris and Duke Hyde's son, Edgar, was looking up at her with a cute smile. Julia, who almost frowned at the sharp pain, smiled with superhuman strength.
"Ed, how are you?"
"Yes! I'm so happy to see you, Your Majesty!"
"I really missed our Edgar too."
Oh, so cute.
The pain seemed to have been washed away by the innocent child's cuteness. As Julia smiled brightly and whispered affectionately to Edgar while stroking his head, he smiled brightly and spread his arms.
Julia thought Edgar was cute and would always hold him in her arms but Iris, who usually had weak arms, wouldn't do it, so Ed would try to hold Julia whenever he saw her.
'Omg.'
Julia's back broke out in a cold sweat as she saw that. Her lower back still ached, her inner thighs felt tight, and her limbs felt limp.
'Oh, no. If I hug Ed here, I'll get seriously injured at the very least!'
Gulp. Julia swallowed dry saliva and smiled brightly, quickly reaching out her hand.
"Excuse me, Ed? I'm sorry, but today we have to hold hands..."
"Yeah, why?"
Edgar asked with his eyes sparkling with disappointment.
Julia, who was weak towards pretty and cute things, especially children, flinched. Then, Edgar, who knew that Julia was weak towards him, started whining and throwing tantrums.
"Huhu... Ed isn't heavy."
"No, that's not it, Ed, I'm just not feeling well today."
"Eeeek, Your Majesty..."
But as the warm and soft child continued to coo cutely, Julia's mind. gradually became confused.
Oh, it won't work. It really won't work!
Julia tried to hold on, telling herself not to lose her mind here, but Ed started to push harder and harder, his big blue eyes shining.
"Edgar will give Edgar Your Majesty a kiss!"
The child gave Julia, who was hesitating, a decisive blow and hugged her by the nape of her neck. And.
Kiss!
"Hehe."
"...Ah."
Julia immediately lost my mind. It was obviously a different meaning, but Ed's soft 'lips' and 'shining eyes' touching her cheek unconsciously reminded her of something.
"Relax.'
"You're pretty even when you cry."
'I'm possessed, I'm possessed...'
Julia's mind was blank and there were only two things on it: lips, eyes, lips, eyes...
"Julia?"
"Whoa!"
Julia woke up from her memories with a scream as a hand shook her shoulder. Iris, with a puzzled expression, was approaching her.
"Why are you so surprised?"
"Oh, sis! Good morning, no, lunch."
Julia smiled instinctively and greeted Iris. But the tips of her ears were burning hot, making it difficult for her to smile naturally as usual.
Oh, what should I do!
It was the first time she had lost her composure like this. Julia screamed inwardly and hugged Ed tightly. Then, Iris, who had no idea what was happening, called Ed with a stern expression.
"Ed. I told you not to pressure the Queen to hug you because she was tired."
"Yes?!"
Julia let out a loud scream without realizing it. Then, Iris, who was trying to push away Ed who was whining, opened her eyes wide. Without even knowing it, Julia started talking nonsense because she thought something looked suspicious.
"I, I'm fine! I'm not in pain at all."
"Huh? He just needs to be careful with Julia's wrists and forearms..."
Uh?
Julia finally came to her senses at the sound of Iris's strange voice. Even Ed, who was clinging to his mother's leg, tilted his head and looked at Julia as if he found it strange.
"Ahaha. Yes, that's what I meant! It's not that hard, but, it's still a bit difficult to hold Ed..."
Hmm, are you still tired? Iris, who was watching Julia acting unusually timid, thought nothing of it and started walking.
"Come on in. Since you were very tired yesterday. I prepared something easy to eat..."
"No, I didn't overdo it!"
"...?"
Julia, who had been quietly following Iris, answered in shock again.
When Iris blinked in confusion and asked if there was a problem, Julia pursed her lips and answered yes, fearing that she would be worried, before disappearing into the restaurant first.
Hmm, something feels strange.
