Alexander had rushed home in the middle of the night because of Lily's text. However, his wife did not look at him and simply snuggled into his embrace. He did not know whether he should be glad or mad at her.
Glad because she was willing to get closer to him. Mad because she did that so easily. What if the person on the bed was not Alexander but someone else?
"Lily. Lily..." he called her name softly in her ear.
"Shut up! You're so noisy!" Lily waved her hand. Dissatisfaction was written all over her face.
Alexander was speechless. 'She said I was noisy, but she hugged me tighter and snuggled deeper into my arms. Did she think she would not hear anything by doing so?'
Alexander wanted to say something at first but just sighed in the end. 'Forget it. I'll just say it tomorrow! She’s my princess, after all.'
He soon relaxed in the bed and fell asleep with Lily using him as a human pillow.
Lily had a great sleep. When she woke up, she felt fresh and wanted to stretch her arms, but she could not move them. Opening her eyes, she saw the handsome face belonging to her lover.
"Alex?" she called out in surprise. "When did you come
home?"
Alexander opened his eyes, his dark orbs staring back at her. Finally, he could let out his words from last night. "Hmph! You snuggled into my arms without knowing who I was. Do you even know how to keep yourself safe?"
