When Leah woke up in the morning, her entire body was sore.
She felt like every bone in her body had been taken apart and rearranged.
She opened her eyes and glanced at Ernest lying next to her. His eyes were closed, and his handsome face was angled towards Leah. His eyelashes were long and thick, and Leah would wager that it was better than a woman's.
His facial features were very outstanding indeed.
He had an aquiline nose, and his lips were shaped like a bow. Ernest was very sexy.
There was some fresh stubble on his chin as well.
Leah was suddenly stunned by this discovery. Ernest was in his twenties, so obviously he would have some facial hair.
She found herself amusing for being surprised.
Ernest was maturing into an even more handsome man.
He was extremely charming, and Leah fell ever the more in love with him.
She couldn't help from reaching out and touching his face, from his thick eyebrows to his nose and mouth.
Her fingers had just reached his lips when Ernest opened his mouth and closed it on her fingers.
"Hey!" Leah cried out in alarm.
Ernest opened his onyx eyes, and they were full of affection as he stared at Leah.
Leah's face immediately turned red. "You're awake?"
"Yeah." Ernest nodded.
"When did you wake up?"
"I woke up as soon as you moved." He held her hand and flopped on top of her right away.
Leah was astonished, and she exclaimed, "You want to go again?"
He nodded and whispered in Leah's ear. "You're just so tempting. I could probably hold it in if you weren't with me, but now that you're here, I don't want to hold back."
Leah pouted and sighed. "But we went five rounds last night."
The morning had barely started, and Ernest wanted to go again.
Ernest nodded seriously and said, "I wanted to do it seven times, but you must've been exhausted from the journey, so I just went for five rounds. I'm making up the difference now."
Leah's expression was once of absolute shock.
She was defeated by Ernest's seemingly endless reserves of stamina.
In the end, they did it a total of seven times.
When Leah and Ernest finally got out of bed, the sun was shining high in the sky, pouring its golden light into the living room.
On the sofa, Liam and Maria were snuggling up, it seemed as if they were looking at something together.
Leah and Ernest spotted them as soon as they arrived downstairs.
"You're back?" Leah said.
Maria and Liam looked up at the stairs at the same time.
Ernest greeted them with a smile. "Liam, Maria, you stood us up. We waited for a long time, you know?"
Maria raised her chin and said, "What is this, Ernest? I didn't come home because I wanted to give you guys alone time. You've been tortured by us this whole time, and Liam and I just pity you."
Ernest smiled without saying anything.
He took Leah's hand, walked to the sofa, and sat
down.
Maria approached Leah and said, "Leah, you must be tired, right? Your dark eye circles are very prominent."
Leah felt rather embarrassed in front of Liam, and she took a deep breath to calm herself.
