Nathael looked at her with a cold expression and asked in a deep voice. “You don’t want to pretend anymore?”

Nathael gave her a piercing look before reclining on the pillow, his hands folded under his head.

“Let me have some of the blanket,” he murmured.

Slowly opening her eyes, Maggie remained motionless. She could feel the warmth of his chest through the
