Stephan cocked a brew. “What’s with that expression? We’re husband and wide. Of course, we should repay Maurice’s favor together.”
It would be best to settle this debts that noonewed anyone thing.
He emphasized the words “husband and wite“, making his intention crystal clear.
Felicia caught on She also knew how terrifyingly possessive he was. But instead <b>of </b>arguing, she simply chuckled. It was care for Stephan to put aside his hostility toward Maurice and say something like this though his jealousy was unmistakable.
Sheughed for a long while before tiptoeing up to press a loss to Stephan’s <i>lips</i>. “Alright, then we’ll <b>repay </b><b>this </b>debt together.”
Stephan hummed in response. “We’ll have the wedding once we
<b>once </b>we <b>return</b><b>.</b>”
“Ok” Felicia smiled.
“And we’ll get our marriage certificate.” Stephan huffed.
“y,” Felicia agreed to ything with a smile. Her quick answer took Stephan by surprise.
He leaned down, whispering another request into her ear <b>in </b><b>a </b>deliberately lowered voice. He had expected her to blush, maybe even punch him. But to his surprise, Felicia simply smirked. loped her arms around <b>his </b>shoulders, and answered the same way, “y.”
Her answer was enough to drive Stephan insane. The night grew heated.
That night, the two lovers lose themselves in their passion a dozen times.
The next morning, Scarlet ocked on Felicia’s door when it <b>was </b>time to set out. She found the door still shut, with no soundsing from inside.
Scarlet was puzzled. Having spent so much time with Felicia, she knew her habits well. No matter howte she stayed up the <b>night </b>before, she always woke up on time
When she knocked <b>a </b>third time. Maurice arrived.
The aftereffects of the venomous creature were strong He looked pale, though he still carried himself with amanding presence. A group of his men followed closely behind him, their
demeanor just as imposing
The third round of locking was met with silence.
Maurice frowned and ordered his men to break the door down despite <b>Scarlet’s </b>attempt to stop him But just then, the door clicked open
Felicia and Stephan stepped out, holding hands.
Maurice’s expression darkened.
Scarlet blinked in surprise, but she quickly recovered and joked, “When did you get here, Mr. Russell? No wonder there <b>wasn’t </b>an answer. I guess I was the one being inconsiderate. My bad” Stephan was in a great mood. Not only did wave of Scarlet’sment, but he even motioned to Maurice. “Let’s go”
Maurice’s men exchanged unsary nces, already <b>bracing </b>for conflict. They remembered how Stephan had nearly ended Maurice’s life back at Mount Farstone. But it seemed their worries were for nothing
<b>Just </b>as they were abour to breathe a sigh of reller, however, they quickly realized the battle wasn’t over.
The
locked gates and were trying to intimidate the other
Stephan was the first to withdraw his <b>gaze</b>, smirking as he openly wrapped an arm around Felicia’s shoulders and led her <b>forward </b>
Everyone immediately noticed the dazzling ring on Felicia’s finger.
