Beauty and the Marquess, Eva, The Hastings. Book 1

Chapter 48

Hide and seek.

A new morning a new day, Snow clumped on the window sills and eves outside.

What a wedding, Family they hadn't seen for donkeys years turned up. Women wrapped up in fur coats and woollen shawls, Even Magdalena had to wear a white fur wrap and mitt for the chilly day and night.

Waking up next to Aston in the morning was wonderful indeed stretching her sore body from last nights activities.

Peering at her now sound asleep husband Magdalena inspected his rippling muscles of his toned back and exposed buttocks in her sight.

Pulling on a robe Magdalena left their room for refreshment her stomach rumbled from hunger.

Tip toeing around the empty kitchen Lena poked her head around draws and cupboards for any food tasty enough to eat.

Spying a tasty morsel Lena grabbed a chicken wing savouring the BBQ taste so delicious licking her fingers in delight.

Aston heard his new bride sneak away from their disheveled bed sat up pushed the sheet off his body and silently followed.

What a sight he saw his wife licking her fingers enjoying the chicken wing held in her hand. His eyes watched from the still darkened kitchen his wife's hungry mouth devouring not so lady like a piece of meat.

Stepping inside the servants quarters Aston spoke "I see my wife is hungry?"

Magdalena jumped hearing a voice speak behind her, "Good grief Aston you gave me a heart attack" her hand holding her beating chest.

"Sorry Darling" said Aston enjoying watching his wife in her silky night gown.

Magdalena eyes widened in disbelief Aston "you are...naked" gulping down her panic.

"I am naked as a new born babe sweetheart" said the notorious rogue moving closer.

"You will have to leave Aston I don't want the servants seeing my glorious husband in the nude" pushing against his muscled chest.

Aston chuckled drawing her forward and kissing her juicy chicken flavoured lips "Fine my lady" he said slapping her pert bottom leaving her alone.

"Thank heaven" she heaved a sigh of relief Aston listened to her for once and left biting into another juicy leg.

A few hours later Aston and Magdalena were packed ready to travel for the start of their honeymoon.

England was now a chilly cold mess with both snow and rain. The snow was no longer white but a sludgy dirty off white some resembled black sludge.

Before their wedding Magdalena told Aston please take me away to a warm climate "I cannot take any more of the cold weather."

"He told her your wish is my command darling."

Now they were travelling far away for their honeymoon, She had always wanted to go somewhere sunny and warm to swim in private.

Luckily Aston just bought a private Island after travelling to inspect before he even asked Magdalena to marry him. Now the island will be a popular place for family to travel for privacy.

Everyone was asleep still, All the Hastings family left the Winchester place where Jean and Sophie resided after the reception.

By the time they arrived home the younger children had slept through the carriage ride exhausted. Hermione the dowager countess decided to spend more time with her daughter Sophie stayed back.
