I blinked. "…He's still asleep?"
I turned to glance at the clock.
11:47 A.M.
My eye twitched. "The ten-minute power nap," I said slowly, "has somehow become four hours."
I curled my tail on my body again. "And it's almost lunch."
Soren didn't move, not even a twitch.
Honestly impressive.
I studied him for a moment. "…How does someone sleep this deeply?"
If the mansion collapsed right now, I suspected he might simply roll over and continue dreaming.
Should I tell Agatha to prepare for lunch? I was about to call for her when I remembered something.
I turned my head toward the bedside table and saw the small black hand bell resting neatly beside the lamp.
Normally, there would be absolutely no reason for me to use that bell.
I already had Agatha, and she handled everything perfectly well. Meals, cleaning, errands—Agatha had been doing it long before I arrived, and she did it with the quiet efficiency of someone who could probably run the entire household if she felt like it.
