I woke up the next morning snuggling further into the covers to escape the light coming in through the curtains.
Not even realizing that by me snuggling in meant I was pushing myself into Alessandro.
Too embarrassed and scared to move I peek an eye open to look at his face.
He has such gentle features for someone with such a hard ass exterior. He looks so innocent and peaceful.
His hair a disheveled mess falls lazily around his clean shavened face. For awhile I stare in awe of him watching his chest rise and fall slowly.
Trying not to wake him I begin tracing his face with my fingers. Starting from his eyebrows I lightly outline the contours of his face. When I reach his lips I scoot myself further up his body softly kissing him.
What am I doing right now?
Not once does he budge the whole time I invade his personal space.
When I've finished I rest my head gently on his chest closing my eyes, listening to the gentle thump of his heart.
"Your fingers are really soft." He croaks making me jump.
"I uh h-how long have you been awake?" Did he feel me kiss him!? Oh gosh that's so embarrassing, I shouldn't have done that!
"Since you kissed me." He shrugs tracing small circles on my back.
"I-yeah. I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me."
He chuckles,"I never wanted you to stop in all honesty."
I blush throwing the covers over my head. What is wrong with me? Of course he felt all of that.
He chuckles sitting up in the bed pulling me with him,"You make it incredibly difficult to keep myself under control."
"Sorry." I mumble mentally slapping myself.
"Don't be. It's refreshing to know my mate wants me as bad as I want her." He winks before kissing my cheek and climbing from the bed.
"I have some business to take care of, I'll be back."
"Alessandro." I warn, "Remember what we talked about last night."
He huffs pulling on his pants and shirt."I know princess, I'm not going to kill him. However he will be demoted and sent on his merry way."
I walk over to him helping him with his tie. He looks down at me with so much love it's scary. I look away quickly staring a hole through his shirt.
"You're so beautiful." He breathes leaning down to kiss my lips. "So beautiful."
I run my hands up his firm chest to his hair tangling my fingers in it. We break away breathless resting our heads against each other.
"I have to explain some things to you when I come back." He pecks my lips one last time groaning.
I pout silently poking my lip out as he walks out of the door looking back at me.
"Don't do that princess, we'll talk later."
Later felt like a lifetime, I left his room to go to mine. Dylan was tidying up what she could ;which wasn't much.
"Oh Luna is everything alright? I was so worried when you didn't return." She has one of the sweetest voices I've ever heard.
I nod smiling,"He's going to handle it."
Her eyes well with tears as she begins to shake.
"Oh no no sweety he's not going to kill him. Dylan I promise you he won't be killed."
