Celeste froze completely when I opened my eyes.
As my gaze shifted from the ceiling toward her, she gulped, looking as if she had been caught red-handed committing the biggest crime.
I felt her soft hand on my forehead and hair for some reason. Not that I hated it, but I was currently topless in front of two women.
"Have you had enough, Celeste?" I asked, my voice low.
"Ah… s-sorry, I didn't mean to…" Celeste quickly withdrew her hand and averted her gaze, clearly flustered.
"How many days have I been out?" I asked, trying to sit up. A groan escaped my lips as pain shot through my body.
"Around a day," the maid standing behind Celeste answered.
"A day…" I repeated, processing the information. It was better than I had expected, considering I had just awakened, but it didn't mean I was fully recovered. My body was still utterly exhausted from the ordeal, and I knew it would take a few more days to regain my strength.
