Chapter 895: Chapter 895: The ‘Lion’ in the Dream
Enna Clark fell asleep and suddenly dreamed that she was walking in a forest, being stalked by a lion.
The massive lion pounced towards her, and just when she thought it would open its huge mouth to devour her, unexpectedly, the lion just pinned her down, glanced at her, and started napping on top of her.
Frightened yet relieved, Enna began to feel uncomfortable.
She struggled desperately, trying to break free from under the ‘big lion,’ but she was completely immobilized by its weight…
So hot, so heavy…
The dreaming young woman furrowed her brow and shifted her body.
As soon as she moved, she was hugged even tighter.
In her sleep, the dreaming Enna was pressed down even more firmly by the lion in her dream!
She felt hot and miserable, especially the sensation of being oppressively immobilized, which was exceedingly uncomfortable. In her dream, she struggled ceaselessly, calling out for someone, anyone, to save her.
The weight on her grew heavier and more unbearable.
Her mind gradually started to clear…
Lions? How on earth did a lion appear out of nowhere? And why did the lion suddenly emerge, insisting on catching her? The ‘lion’ had a strange look in its eyes when it seized her, almost human-like… She recalled which person it resembled.
A domineering, arrogant face instantly came to mind.
Baron Lawrence!
She woke up suddenly, instantly pulling away from the dream—
Indeed.
Upon opening her eyes, she was met with the man’s handsome face, which was so close that his hot breath sprayed on her neck, tickling her.
Furthermore, his hand was dominantly and strongly placed on her waist. Even in sleep, he pressed her tightly, not allowing her the slightest chance to move.
Exactly like the ‘lion’ in her dream!
“Baron Lawrence?” Enna Clark called out softly.
The man sleeping beside her gave no response, apparently in a deep slumber.
Upon closer inspection, Enna noticed the clear dark circles under his eyelids, and she saw that at some point, he had changed into a sleeping robe… Her heart softened, and the urge to struggle faded away.
He rarely slept this deeply; him being so soundly asleep indicated that he was truly exhausted.
These past days, running back and forth between Country W and Country T, he must have hardly slept at all.
Between work, searching for people, and matters of the Military District, he surely had no time for sleep.
Feeling some discomfort from the pressure on her waist, she stealthily tried to shift a bit to find a more comfortable position. But as soon as she moved, the man embracing her subconsciously moved with her, still forcibly grasping her waist with an attitude of absolute possession, holding her tightly.
She attempted several times, realizing that no matter how carefully she moved, no matter how slight the angle, as soon as she stirred, Baron Lawrence would follow her lead, inevitably embracing her in that tight, suffocating hold.
By the end, she even suspected whether this man was truly asleep.
But upon closer observation, she could see that Baron Lawrence was indeed asleep, not pretending. His movements were unconscious responses to hers.
Enna Clark found the situation both amusing and exasperating, and resigned herself to staying still, allowing him to hold her just as dominantly as the lion from her dream…
At first, she endured the situation, counting the seconds, but as she endured, her eyelids drooped again, and she slowly slipped back into the darkness…
What do you think?
