"Doesn't my intensity satisfy you?" Richard replied, unable to stop caressing her body even though his desire had already calmed.
The Red Star Empress was powerless to respond—because it was the truth.
Richard hugged her tighter and said, "Come on, darling… it's time to sleep…"
He kissed her cheek before resting her beautiful face against his chest.
The Red Star Empress was far too exhausted to react to the way he addressed her. She fell asleep, forgetting the burdens of her work as prime minister.

He glanced down, only to find that the Red Star Empress was still fast asleep, her face buried against his neck.
It seemed she had truly been exhausted all this time and needed the rest.
Lilith was also unreasonable, asking the Red Star Empress to continue working like this.
