He gently put Nyla away to another side of the pillow and bent his legs so it wouldn't touch the Lioness's head who may later bite him for this.
He closed his eyes to relax as his wife was sleeping using his chest as a pillow.
Soon, the first one to wake up was Lia, and her eyes fluttered open to find herself in a warm embrace.
The white-haired beauty looked upwards and realized she had slept on her man who had recently got healed from his injuries.
"Ah...I'm sorry...I didn't realize when I fell asleep." She apologized sincerely and prepared to leave but a hand coiled around her curvaceous waist and didn't let go of her from his confinement.
"Let's stay like this," Rio whispered to her as they relaxed in each other's hug.
The crimson-haired boy was enjoying her rosy scent and soft body as the love birds didn't get up.
Their heartbeat could be heard by one another and their breathing brushed passed each other's skin.
After some time passed, they heard movement in the direction of the lower side of the bed. They moved their eyes to find out Helia was rubbing her eyes and stretching her hands as she woke up too.
Rio and Lia gave her a gentle smile while they were hugging each other, not caring about her seeing them together in an intimate position after all it was just an embracing sleeping position.
"Morning." She mumbled to the couple.
"Morning lioness," Rio responded to her as the girl gave him an annoyed glare.
"You should've slept in your room rather than on a chair," Lia said in a worried tone.
"Nah. I'm fine." Helia responded as if this wasn't anything big.
"If you also wanna sleep with us you can join us. This bed seems to have enough space." Rio said from the side in a relaxed voice.
"In your dreams." She snorted and stood up.
Lioness continued, "I'll go get freshened up and ask Yami to get us our morning tea."
Lia nodded as the blonde-haired beauty left their bedroom.
The white-haired beauty also went to freshen up and after she was done, Rio followed in to wash himself up as his clothes were stained by blood.
As Lia was sitting beside the patient and observing her condition Nyla finally made some responses.
"No one can harm my Rio. You have to walk on my corpse first" The magenta-haired beauty mumbled as she was talking in a dream.
Lia watched her with fascinating eyes as she heard someone wanted to save her husband even in her dreams they were thinking of sacrificing their life.
A pained expression shone on Nyla's face as she screamed, "Rioooooo.....noooo."
Tears streaked down her eyes as she started crying in her nightmare.
Lia ruffled her hair and said, "don't cry, Nyla...everything will be alright. Rio is fine."
Feeling a soft caress Nyla stopped crying and opened her eyes as her vision welcomed an otherworldly beauty.
Her eyes were sleepy at first but became astonished as she looked at the white-haired beauty.
"Am I in the afterlife? Are you an angel from heaven? You're so beautiful. " The magenta-haired beauty said in admiration, as her eyes were enamored.
"Nah. I'm the future empress of Asuras" Lia said with a gentle smile, withdrawing her hand from her head.
"What..." Nyla who recently woke up, fainted again, that is what it seemed to be like.
Rio walked out of the bathroom as he heard the conversation outside.
"Did she woke up?" He asked, walking to the bed.
"Yeah. But she is pretending to be asleep as she is afraid of me" Lia said in an amusing tone and exposed her right away.
Rio sat beside on bed along with Lia and looked at her eyes that were shaking.
Nyla opened one of her eyes to take a little peek at them thinking they wouldn't see but Lia and Rio were both watching her cute action. The girl shut down her eyes instantly as she was afraid to be caught.
"You don't have to be scared. She is my wife and won't harm you. Actually, Lia is the one who saved you." Rio convinced the magenta-haired beauty in a calm tone.
"What??? Wife..." Nyla opened her eyes in shock, Her face became downcast.
The one who was afraid initially was now feeling sorrow, knowing Rio had married someone else.
She knew if the Asura's Empress wanted to kill her the white-haired beauty wouldn't have saved her so Nyla wasn't afraid of that fact.
What mattered to her most was Rio.
Since the day she met her boy, Nyla thought about marrying him and how she would make him fall for her.
She always questioned why wouldn't he accept her as his girlfriend and why he wouldn't even look at her and think of her as a girl as other boys did.
The girl finally realized why her boy had high resistance towards her charm and beauty as Rio had the most beautiful girl in the world as his wife.
Not only that but she was the strongest person in existence as the whole asura race was there to attack on her one order.
"Yeah...wife... this is why I can't marry you because I am already married," Rio told her the truth in a calm voice.
The crimson-haired boy started telling her his story of how he came to the land of asura and how they got married.
Nyla was downhearted initially but as she heard their story, her mood got a little better. She was also thankful of Lia as the white-haired beauty had saved her life.
Her stubborn heart had a hint of hope as she heard she was from a royal family.
All of a sudden the girl moved and climbed down the bed before taking position of kneeling, placing her head right on the ground.
