Solid, short story with more plot than smut/ecchi with few misunderstandings

The story has a good start and the art is really beautiful to look at which is not shown on the cover here. The villains are getting their justified punishment which I really appreciate (some story don't even do this tbh). Only the small midunderstandings (2 major ones) are the only annoying things but hey, at least it makes sense in that plot. And the end was just pure perfection with a future that I really like. Little spoiler: We will see their kids *-* Overall a solid read which I liked and this suprised me as...
