Arabella could not help but smile back. It felt so nice to wake up like this. She wished all her mornings would be this bright and warm.
"Good morning, did you wait for to wake up?" Arabella inquired but she already knew the answer. Ferdinand often waited for her to wake up. It was rare for her to wake up first since he was an early riser.
"Yes."
"Did you wait long?"
"No, I just woke up."
Arabella chuckled at that since he was trying to be polite again. She heard from his thoughts that he waited for more than an hour but did not feel it that much since he was watching her sleep.
It was embarrassing to be stared at while she was asleep and Arabella was worried about doing embarrassing things and whatnot but she had gotten used to it in the past months.
’Oh, right. I feel energized now after a good sleep. There are only a few hours left before the Court Sessions but we should be able to do it once or twice.’
Arabella stared at her husband and waited for him to kiss her and initiate things. But surprisingly, his thoughts were clean of naughty ideas even when part of her cleavage was showing.
It was sohow weird since Arabella knew that when they do not have sex at night, Ferdinand usually gets horny in the morning and initiates things so they would do it.
There were a lot of tis as well that she woke up to him already horny and trying hard to hold back.
But Ferdinand was not doing that right now nor thinking about it either.
’Did I do sothing that pissed him off? Or is he worried about sothing?’
Arabella listened to his thoughts but he was fine. Then, why does he seem uninterested in doing it with her now? Was he simply not in the mood?
Ferdinand not being in the mood was quite weird in itself since he usually once they were alone. If they do not do it at night, they will do it in the morning. If they do not go all the way, they at least do so naughty playful things.
’Should I initiate?’ Arabella wondered.
She thought about it for several seconds but pushed aside the thoughts.
’No, he might just be not in the mood for it. Or maybe he’s still tired. I shouldn’t overthink.’
Arabella stopped herself from giving it more interpretations before she ended up giving it unnecessary and unrelated anings.
"Is there sothing you want to say?" Ferdinand inquired when he noticed that she was lost in thought.
"Oh, nothing. I was just thinking of what to wear for the Court Session today," Arabella was embarrassed to admit she was wondering why he was not horny.
She got out of bed and went to open the blinds. She was wearing a thin nightgown and she felt Ferdinand’s eyes follow her every movent but he did not follow her or try to touch her.
The sun’s rays would have made her nightwear almost transparent. And yet, Ferdinand simply thought she looked beautiful and alluring and did not try to do anything or even think about it.
’Is he not chard by anymore?’ Arabella pouted while he could not see her face. She kind of didn’t like that he was reacting so plainly unlike his usual self who tried to show his appreciation with action.
’Ugh! Stop it. It’s like I’m dying for his attention right now. I’m not even horny,’ Arabella scolded herself and stopped trying to seduce him.
She picked up a coat instead and wrapped herself tightly. Such action usually ant she was ready to call in her maids and do her usual morning routines.
Ferdinand took the cue, kissed her forehead, and said, "I’ll be leaving now then and give you ti to prepare. I’ll pick you up once you’re ready for breakfast."
"Alright. I’ll see you later then," Arabella smiled and Ferdinand gave her a peck on the lips before leaving.
Arabella was satisfied with that since at least he could not resist kissing her on the lips when he saw her smile.
She then proceeded with her usual morning routine until she was set and ready for breakfast.
Yet, Ferdinand was not there yet to escort her so they could walk together to the dining hall.
’He used to be here before I was ready,’ Arabella thought as she tried to focus on his presence.
After getting used to being able to feel his presence, she could tell if he was in his room or in his office due to the familiar feeling of the distance between them.
’He seems to be in his room. Why is he not heading here yet? Or did my maids did my maids dress up quicker than usual?’
However, when she checked the ti, they dressed her up and did her makeup at the sa ti and pace.
Arabella had to wait for several more minutes before Ferdinand arrived to escort her. She wanted to ask him why he did not arrive as early as usual. But she stopped herself since he might co too early next ti and end up waiting for her for too long.
’Maybe, he went to check on the knights and spent more ti than usual,’ Arabella simply let it pass and pushed the thought aside.
However, while they were eating, Ferdinand kept staring at her. She was focused on her food at first so she did not notice. But when she kept feeling that he was staring at her, she finally stopped eating and looked at him.
Arabella caught her husband staring at her but he quickly averted his gaze and pretended like he was busy eating his food and just glanced at her a bit.
’Is there sothing he wanted to say? Or he truly just glanced at to make sure I was enjoying the food?’
Arabella went back to eating but when she felt him staring at her again, she finally decided to ask.
She caught him staring at her again and asked, "What’s wrong?"
