"Then why... were you packing…"
As soon as Amalia finished speaking, Livia glanced around and noticed the small suitcase by the bed, immediately understanding the situation.
She had indeed started packing some of her belongings in the castle early. If Amalia agreed to leave with her, it would make things easier, eliminating the need to carry miscellaneous items.
"..."
After a moment of hesitation, Livia didn't immediately reveal her plans. Instead, she lowered her head, resting her chin on Amalia's head, just like she used to when they slept together.
"I was just preparing in advance. It wasn't because I was leaving you, Amalia," Livia said.
She wasn't leaving Amalia, she was taking her along.
Hearing this, Amalia relaxed her tense back, burying her nose in Livia's chest and breathing softly.
As long as Livia wasn't abandoning her, she didn't care what else she might do.
After a while, Amalia released her arms and looked up, her body still pressing against Livia's.
