“I’ll let you know when I remember…”

I wanted to snap at him and say that there was no such thing, but since I didn’t know Leoruka well before the Ice Age, I didn’t know what kind of accident he would cause, so I just kept muttering. Chase let out a long sigh.

Then, he picked up my wrist with his thumb and index finger, as if he were using tongs to pick up trash that had fallen to the floor, and then he tossed it away.

“You didn’t even know this?”

“That’s right… Hahaha…”

I really had no idea. I guess I still had my hand on his chest. I smiled awkwardly and tried to sort things out.

“Well then, it’s late at night, so I’ll be going now. Have a good night’s sleep…”

“Where are you going? Why don’t you come here?”

The training didn’t go well. Why can’t I run away?

Looking up at him with discontent. Chase’s face seemed to hold all the worries in the world, and he sighed deeply again.

And then he sat up and hesitated in an unusual way. What are you going to say now?

“Was it cold?”

“yes?”

“I’ll turn up the heater. It’ll get better.”

“…”

Are you worried about me now, Black Panther?

I blinked my eyes wondering what was going on, and the… black panther… No, Chase rolled up the blanket I was covering him with as if he couldn’t do anything about it and put it in my arms.

“Take this too and cover it.”

“It’s okay…”

“Why don’t you go quickly? Are you just going to sleep on top of me?”

“Yes… Oh, no?”

In fact, the black panther’s body temperature was so warm that it seemed like it could transmit its warmth just by being next to him, so it was a little tempting to ask him if he would sleep on top of me. But it didn’t seem sincere. Right?

‘But can I really sleep on the Chase?’

‘Will it work?’

I guess not.

I quickly jumped onto the bed before the black panther had another seizure. But my conscience prickled as I watched Chase curled up on the sofa, naked, with even the blanket taken from me.

Besides, without Chase, it felt cold even though there was a blanket on the quilt. After hesitating for a while. I finally called out to him in a crawling voice.

“Are you going to sleep like that without a blanket? The bed is big. Just put a pillow in the middle and sleep apart from each other.”

I never intended to call Chase to be my brat. But Chase must have sensed my intentions, or he just didn’t want to talk to me, so he just waved his hand and grumbled without looking back.

“Okay. Go to sleep comfortably.”

“If you say that. I feel uncomfortable, so how can I sleep comfortably…….”

“I can’t sleep there because I feel uncomfortable.”

“Why do you feel uncomfortable when you are sleeping in your own bed?”

“I’m afraid I’ll be harassed by you again.”

“…”

I’m going overboard with a mistake I made once. I really didn’t know I had such bad hands.

Still, I felt sorry and tried to convince Chase somehow.

“I won’t harass you.”

“Have you ever seen a perpetrator give notice and then commit the assault?”

“I swear.”

“I don’t believe you, your oath.”

The response I got was so cold that I almost felt chills. Even after doing this, there was nothing I could do since he wouldn’t listen. All I could do was wrap myself in a soft quilt and blanket like a cocoon and sleep comfortably on my own.

How long did you sleep so soundly?

“It’s warm…”

When I opened my eyes, mumbling as the morning sunlight tickled my eyelids, I was lying on the sofa, throwing all the comforters and blankets on the floor, and sprawled out on top of Chase.

“Are you seriously kidding me?”

Chase, who was lying underneath me, gritted his teeth and growled in a voice that seemed to be barely holding back his anger.

Chase was really terribly angry. His pitch-black eyes were sparkling, and it looked like he might turn into a giant black panther and run wild at any moment.

“Why do you keep crawling onto the sofa? Are you the nightly molester who climbs over the fence?”

“I really didn’t do it on purpose…”

“I didn’t do it on purpose, but why is your hand there? Even so, it wasn’t intentional”

“Okay, I was wrong!”

He raised both his hands in a panic as he shouted. He really had no idea why these bad hands were touching Chase again.

At least this time, it was fortunate that he touched his slender waist instead of his chest. For some reason, even the skin on Chase’s waist was soft and elastic. But that didn’t mean it was Chase’s waist’s fault…

“You still haven’t come down. What are you doing? Are you going to keep climbing on top of me?”

“No! Get down!”

I got down from Chase in a hurry, and white ears popped up on top of my head. I quickly covered my ears with both hands and looked at Chase… Chase pressed his fingers between his eyebrows as if he had a headache, then glanced at me and clicked his tongue.

“What did I do that you’re scared of? I was the one who got hurt?”

“I wasn’t scared…”

“Put your ear in and talk. Why are you wagging your tail? Are you asking me to look at you?”

“Will you look after me?”

“Would you let a molester wag his tail?”

“no…”

“Go wash your face. Your eves are swollen and look like burst dumplings.”

Chase, who had gotten up from the sofa, strode forward and started to argue. He had been sleeping on top of Chase all this time, so his face and eyes were as swollen as a steamed bun, which I could tell just by touching them. With his face swollen like this and his white ears hanging down, he looked quite a sight.
