"The Little Dove"

“No what the world thinks, I’m the one and only Columbina that everyone will remember in their hearts.” 

“ Y-yes ma’am..! Sorry ma’am ! ”

That didn’t answer anything, yes, he realizes that.

　HALTS nearly immediately, and turns around with crossed arms and a squinted gaze, barely holding a huff.

　“Running away? Hardly a concept in my books. But I give you props for being imaginative―or is it delusional? I can’t tell with you.”

     " AH, Lumine ... my darling Lumine ! You missed me that much ? I can't believe I ended up abandoning my poor Lumine ..." She reaches to caress the sides of her lovely subordinate's face and smiles sweetly at her.

There’s no hesitation in his actions. She spoke those words without much thought ── The very way he hadn’t let a thought pass before he was dropping down to the ground. The palms of his hands grace the floor as those lips of his moved to place a kiss right on top of the front of her shoe. His eyes flickered upward to gaze at hers, yearning for her approval.

“Anything else you desire?” A certain someone missed someone a lot.

     IF it were any other man, she would glower at their pathetic attempts to impress her like a slobbering mutt but it was hard to deny her lover of any form of approval when he gazed at her with such love in his eyes. He was always such an obedient and attentive lover ... how could she not reward him for that ? She moved to gently pet his hair. 

　The feeling is mutual. He pauses, and then motions all over her pointedly with his hands. “Then you. There’s no continuation. You just happened.”

I was fine but then you

Ruined by Apathy

     AFTER being gone for a few weeks, this was what Charlotte had to return to ? Well, it certainly was no surprise since she knew exactly what she was getting into the moment she accepted his confession but dear archons was Lazar so utterly hopeless without her being around. His clinginess was well, certainly endearing at times but it was rather annoying to deal with since he practically couldn’t live without her. With all these unsealed letters that had been so casually tossed on her desk for her to read upon her return, she knew well that her first task at hand was to visit her lover. He must be feeling as if he was withering away by now.

     Just as she went for the door, it had swung open to reveal the man that she was ready to see. Oh, how convenient. Well, at least Lazar saved her the trouble.

     With that dealt with, she immediately greeted him with a sweet smile and reached over to pat his head, as if to commend him for his efforts. She knew any form of affection was sure to get his tail wagging especially after being parted from her for so long.

     “ Ah, there you are. I knew you’d come running the moment you heard that I returned. Honestly, you’re like a dog that’s excited to see its owner again. That aside, I’m certainly happy to see you’ve survived without me. I was afraid that you’d be wallowing in your own misery by now but this is quite good ! Now then, what say we have some tea in my room to catch up ? It has been far too long after all and I have a lot to tell you ! ”

　His smile doesn’t falter, even upon her words and change of facade―which he knew were bad news. She was definitely plotting something.

　“Oh? You want to kiss me? Did my charm finally caught you on?” He chuckles in faint amusement. “That’s flattering, but I’m not that desperate.”

      “ OBVIOUSLY by taking me up on my invitation, you desire for something even more yourself, no ? ” Her smile grew darker as she drew even closer and soon reached to firmly seize both his wrists. She slowly but surely closed the distance between their faces.
