This story is as sweet as the cakes Aiba eats! I'm glad that Nino was able to learn to love naturally, not based on the soulmate marks. It did just make it that much better when that extra nudge of compatibility appeared :)

I loved the banter back and forth between them throughout. AIBA IS SUCH A GOOD FLIRT. I would enjoy getting some of those lines from him myself, so not surprised they charmed Nino.

A very warm and gentle read, thank you!
