The next morning, when I woke up, I expected Christian to be gone, but when I looked down, I found him still sleeping beside .
"Christian! Hurry! Wake up! It’s already so late in the morning!" I shook him in a panic.
Instead of jumping out of bed, like I had expected, Christian pulled over closer to him with his strong, muscular arm.
"What’s the rush? I want to spend every minute I can with you," he mumbled, wrapping his arms around .
I felt very conflicted. A big part of was blissfully happy that Christian wanted to be around as much as I wanted to be around him, but I knew that the chances of us being caught grew exponentially with every passing mont.
"The maid will be here any minute to announce breakfast," I said nervously.
I heard Christian let out a deep sigh, mumbling sothing under his breath.
He sat up and shifted himself so that he was leaning over on top of .
"How are you feeling? You’re not hurting anywhere, are you?" he asked, placing a kiss on my forehead. "I lost control last night, I’m sorry."
While I certainly felt sore even after the peaceful sleep, I felt energetic and happy.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and pecked him on the lips, "No, I’m not hurting. Don’t worry," I replied with a soft smile.
"Talking about my mother...is difficult for . It’s a long-standing wound that hasn’t healed yet."
I could see the pain in his eyes as he spoke, but unlike last night, he had a better ti keeping himself together.
"Thank you for telling about her. It feels like I know you better," I replied as I ran my fingers through his hair.
He finally smiled feintly and looked in the eyes, "Outside of my very close friends, you’re the only one who knows."
The atmosphere between us grew hot and heavy. I felt the initial sparks of desire ignite inside of , causing my hands to roam his upper body without restraint.
Christian’s eyes darkened from my movents, but he caught my hand as it went to caress his face, kissing it gently.
"Believe , I want nothing more than to make you feel good while having my way with you, but you need to rest. Last night was too much for you, and your body needs a rest. I promise to make it up to you later."
While a part of felt upset, I knew that Christian was right. My entire body felt sore, especially my lower half.
He leaned down and kissed on the lips just as I heard a knock on my door.
"Second Miss, breakfast will be served in thirty minutes."
By her voice, I could tell that it was Anna. She waited for my response to make sure her ssage was delivered, but Christian didn’t pull away from the kiss.
A few, seemingly long, monts went by, and Anna called out once more, "Second Miss? Are you awake?"
Christian’s tongue twisted around mine, taking my breath away before finally pulling away.
"Thank you, I’ll be there," I called out, gasping for air.
I heard Anna hum in acknowledgnt and walk away from my door.
Christian looked down at with a triumphant smile, pleased to see my flustered expression.
"Okay, princess. I’ll head back to my room now and get ready. I’ll see you later," he said, placing one final kiss on my cheek before getting out of bed.
I watched him walk over to the door, admiring his chiseled upper body.
I swear he’s the most attractive man on this planet.

Once Christian was gone, I quickly got out of bed to take a shower. But the mont I stood up, I nearly fell to the ground.
This reminds of my first ti. Christian was right, he did go a little overboard.
I supported myself against the wall before taking a few steps towards the bathroom. Since this was my second ti in this predicant, I already had experience dealing with it.
After a quick shower, I got ready for breakfast, dressing professionally for work. Due to the tight schedule, I had to dress quickly and couldn’t do anything special with my hair.
The outfit I chose consisted of a cream colored blouse and a black pencil skirt with a gold accent around the waistline.
By the ti I finished getting dressed, I looked at the clock and gasped! I had exactly two minutes left before being considered late. Last ti Morgan was late, Mother made her sleep with the door open so that the maids could monitor her sleep and morning schedules.
I need to hurry!
I hurried out of my room, walking towards the dining room as quickly as possible. When I finally arrived, I noticed that my parents wore relaxed expressions and didn’t seem bothered by my arrival.
"I heard from the maids that Christian couldn’t sleep last night. They found him exercising in the gardens after midnight," said Morgan as she walked over beside .
Exercising? Yes, I guess you could call it that.
"I’m guilty. During our evening walk, Christian said that he wouldn’t be able to restrain himself if we were left alone any longer. Poor thing must’ve had trouble sleeping due to his...desire."
The smirk on her face contradicted her guilty tone.
I looked at her with an amused expression that she mistook for shock.
Oh, I’m sure it was exactly that, sister.
"Ugh, I don’t know why I’m telling you this. You don’t know a thing about intimacy," she said as she flicked the invisible dirt from under her long nails.
Ha! You’re right. I know so little about intimacy that I’m having trouble walking today.
I turned my head to prevent myself from bursting out in laughter. The more she tried to flaunt her wonderful relationship with Christian, the more comical I found it.
We were all seated at the table when Christian finally arrived. His hair was still damp from the shower, and he was dressed rather casually.
"Forgive for being late," he said, taking a seat across from Morgan.
My mother smiled gracefully and shook her head, "I heard you had a hard ti sleeping last night. If your accommodations weren’t adequate, please let us know."
Christian smiled, "No, I assure you it had nothing to do with accommodations. I simply had a lot on my mind."
Morgan blushed, while my parents nodded with a look of understanding.
"You’re a man of honor. I’m glad to have entrusted my daughter to you," my father said with a hearty laugh.
Christian peeked over at and flashed a flirtatious wink while everyone wasn’t paying attention.
The whole situation was amusing. Everyone was convinced that Christian’s sleepless nights were caused by his lust for Morgan.
