Icy Flames

Chapter 23

"Leo you should know that you're not the only one staying in this room." Alita said still closing her eyes. She didn't get any reply so she opened her eyes and to surprise, Leo was already taking off his pants.

"Aaaahh." She screamed closing her eyes again.

"Leo, please don't change in front of me, go to the bathroom." Alita said.

"Alita, I'm already used to changing in my room and also sleeping naked."

"What! Sleeping naked."

"Yes, if you're not comfortable with that, you can sleep in the guest room." He said.

"Okay, I'll go to the guest room." Alita said and walked out of the room.
Alita walked to one of the room she opened the door and saw Rose in the room.

"Alita, do you need anything?" Rose asked.

" I just wanted you to take me to one of the guest room ." Alita said.

But you can sleep in Leo's room. Dad wouldn't like it if you sleep in the guest room."

"Oh, Ok, I'll just sleep in Leo's room then." Alita said closing the door.

Alita walked back to Leo's room nervous "How am I going to sleep in the same room with Leo." Alita thought. "Well, you are both married now there's nothing wrong being a little romantic tonight." Her lnner mind said. Alita mentally slapped herself for having that kind of thought.

She reached Leo's room and opened the door, she peeked inside the room and saw Leo Lying on his bed covered with the blanket." Looks like he's asleep."Alita thought as she walked in carefully and closed the door behind her.

Leo opened his eyes immediately he perceived Alita scent.
"You came back." Leo said as he raised himself to a sitting position. Alita was surprised he noticed her presence.

"Well, I have no choice than to come back." Alita said turning her eyes away from him. "Please can you just sleep on the sofa until I get settled in here."

"No way! This is my house and I can't sleep on the sofa because of you. If you're uncomfortable with sleeping in the same bed with me, then you should be the one to sleep on the sofa." Leo asked sternly.

Leo you should act like a gentleman and sleep on the sofa." Alita said

"If you can't sleep on the sofa, then you should sleep on the bed with me." Leo said. "I mean there's nothing wrong sleeping together. We are married now. Aren't we?"

"Yes we are married, but...."

"But what Alita? Do you think I'll touch you or are you scared that you might lose your mind because I'm too handsome." Leo said raising an eyebrow."

"Ewww Leo. That's disgusting I'll never do that." Alita said in disgust as she walked towards the coach to sit down.

"Well we definitely are going to do it one day so don't be shy." Leo said.

"Leo my ears are full already, enough of your talking." She said as laid down on the sofa. "Goodnight."

"Goodnight." Leo said "You better make up your mind to share the bed with me. This is your last chance." He said.

"No thanks I can manage."

"It won't be my fault when your back starts to ache tomorrow morning."

"Leo goodnight."

"You're so stubborn. You should suffer the pain." He muttered loud enough for Alita to hear.

•••••••••
The next morning Alita woke up with her back aching. She was definitely facing the punishment for not listening to Leo. She got up from the sofa and looked around. Leo was no where to be seen. She quickly walked to the bathroom to take a shower before she get late for work again. Well it wasn't normal for newlyweds to resume work after their wedding day. But her case was different. After Alita finished getting ready for work, she went down stairs to the dinning table. Rose was already there eating her breakfast.
