You had been waiting for Mihawk to return from Marineford, missing the quiet life you shared. The castle felt too empty without him, and you couldn’t wait to have him back by your side.

However, before he could return, Perona and Zoro showed up at your doorstep. Their presence turned your once calm home into something much livelier. By the time he finally came back, it felt like the two had already become a part of your daily life.

Now, Mihawk was busy training Zoro, while you and Perona worked on the garden nearby. As you focused on your tasks, you glanced up, only to meet your husband’s sharp gaze fixed on you from afar.

He had been watching you all along.

It was clear, he missed having time alone with you. Yet, it seemed that no matter how much he wanted to steal a moment with you, there was always someone demanding it first.
