Leora wakes up when she feels that her body is moving slowly. She opens her eyes slowly and looks around. They are walking in the garden to go to the mansion. They arrived at dawn, so there are still some lights on in the garden and mansion.
With her sleepy face, she looks up and gives Matteo a big smile. Leora clings her arms around his neck, puts her head on his neck, and hugs him tight.
"Why you don't wake me up?" She whispers against his skin.
"You sleep so peacefully." He just comments and continues walking.
"What time is it? Why there isn't anybody here?" She lifts her face from his neck to make sure that there are no people around.
"Almost morning." He says and pointed to the sunrise with his chin.
"You can put me down. I know you are tired." She says and cupping his face.
"We are almost there." He says as they walk up the stairs towards the mansion.
"Okay." She whispers sweetly at him and put her head back on his neck.
"Are they still in the house?" She asks while tracing his Adam's apple that moves around because of his swallowing his own saliva.
"Whom?" Matteo asks with a cracked voice because he can feel the warmth of her skin on his sensitive neck even when their skin doesn't touch each other.
"My friends." She asks still tracing his Adam's apple.
"Stop." He says with a hoarse voice.
"Sorry." She asks blushing shyly when she can feel his reaction. She pulls back her hand and clings it again into his neck and burry her burning face on his shoulder.
"They are in Russia now, helping me to locate the agent who runs away," Matteo explains after taking a deep breath to calm himself.
"Oh." She says still in her embarrassment.
"Do you want to continue to sleep or do you feel hungry?" He asks while they are entering his private corridor.
With him mentioning food makes her brain realize the hunger in her body. Automatically they can hear her stomach make some sound.
"I want to eat pasta." She comes out from her hiding place on his neck and looks at him full of cheerfulness, forgetting all of the things that had happened before.
"I'll tell someone to make it for you." Matteo says as Leora opens their bedroom door. He lowered her into the bed slowly and kiss her forehead and sit closely beside her.
"I'll eat later. We can sleep first." She says in concern when he put his head on her shoulder and closes his eyes. Leora can see that he is so tired. Her heart warmed when she knows he still carries her into their bedroom even when he doesn't have any strength left.
"I don't want you and our baby to starve all morning." He mumbles still closing his eyes.
"Fine, I'll have breakfast in bed and tell someone to prepare it for me. You can sleep now." She says and stroking his hair.
"Okay." He says and putting his body away from her and laying it down on the bed while closing his eyes the entire time.
"You can eat beside me." He says and taps his hands in the empty room beside him.
"Okay." She smiles at his action and crawls at him.
"Sleep. I'll accompany you after sleep." She says while texting the staff to cook the pasta for her.
"And a glass of milk." His comments suddenly make her look up from her phone to see he is already staring at her.
"Okay." She says and added warm milk to her text.
