I woke up to the most beautiful sight known to all kinds. Yes, even the other creatures bthat /bI wasn’t aware of resided in this world.

No one in this world will be experiencing such a cuphoric thing in this world except for me. I smiled as I looked at Tessa’s marked neck, down to her chest, and even her abdomen.

I was truly relentless yesterday. Her eyes were still swollen because she was cryingi. /iNot from displeasure, of course–but pleasure.

I lost count of how many times we did yesterday. However, all I knew was that I wanted to do it again. fndadf Follow current nov?ls on FindN0vel/fndadf

“Rowan, no more. It’s too much,” she muttered in her sleep.

Gosh, she’s so cute even now. Her cheeks were puffed up and red, and her lips were fixed in a pout that made her lips so kissable.

However, I could tell that she was genuinely tired. I mean, she took my cock over and over again, and I even knotted her at the very end, so I couldn’t me her.

cing onest kiss on her lips, I let out a deep breath and held myself back.

“Sleep well, my love,” I muttered before getting up from bed to prepare her some breakfast. Well, not really. Thest time I prepared breakfast with Cade was a disaster. I realized I really didn’t have a ce in the kitchen. However, that disaster was definitely all him and not me.

I was nning on going to Edith’s because I was sure she had already cooked breakfast. I contemted going out of the house shirtless, but I knew Tessa wouldn’t like it, so I grabbed my shirt and threw it over my body.

With that, I went out of the house and was about to head to Edith’s and Winston’s house; however, I stopped in my tracks when I felt a presence sitting on the steps of Owen’s house.

Turning my head, I saw none other than Owen sitting there with dark circles under his eyes. I stopped in my tracks and raised a brow. That captured his attention, and he gazed at me, too.

“You had a good night,” he deadpanned in a bitter tone.

Both my brows raised this time. “You’re here? I thought you were on a long trip or something.”

“It wasn’t long enough, apparently,” he muttered and stood, drinking his coffee like it was alcohol.

I smirked. It seemed my objective was actuallypleted. “Sorry,” I said unapologetically. “The walls aren’t soundproofed.”

He bit his lip and shook his head. “Goodness. Why did I evene back here?”

I crossed my arms in front of his chest. “You wanted to see the renovations,” I said.

“You’re right,” he said, running his fingers through his hair. “I came ito /iwitness an exhibition instead, though.”

“It was a fun exhibition, right?” I boasted.

He sighed. “Dude, don’t you get tired? I felt bad for Tessa for a moment there. She was crying too much.”

“Don’t worry,” I said with a wide smile. “She was crying because the pleasure was too much.”

His face scrunched up in disgust. “I don’t want to hear anythinge out of your mouth again.”

We were silent for a while. I was worried for a second because I thought he would still have feelings for Tessa, but looking at him now, that didn’t seem to be the case.

“Continue treating her well,” he muttered after a while, capturing my attention again.

I pursed my lips before nodding. “I will,” I muttered.

“Take care of yourself, too,” I said.

He cringed at my words, causing a chuckle to escape from my lips. “Hey, don’t take my words for granted. I might be the only one saying these words to you.”

He pursed his lips and let out a deep breath. When he calmed down, he looked into my eyes and said sincerely, “Seriously, take care of her. You don’t know how lucky you are to have someone like her. She loved you even when you hurt her so much. She gave Ca the best life with what little she had. She’s selfless to the point that she neglects herself sometimes, so she needs someone to take care of her.”

“I know,” I whispered to myself. “That’s why I still can’t believe she’s mine. The fact that I could wake up beside her, breathe her in, make love to her-”

“Alright, that’s enough. I don’t want to hear it anymore. The Moon Goddess knows I’ve already heard enough.”

“What I’m saying is–you don’t have to worry. I’ve got her. Not only now, but forever?”

“Might as well put a ring on it,” he muttered jokingly while shaking his head. I didn’t respond, so he stopped chuckling and turned to me with raised brows.

“Are you?”

“You’ll find out soon enough,” I said. “Anyway, what are your ns after this?”

“I might take a break,” he said, crossing his arms in front of his chest. “It’s been too long since I’ve had one. A long one.”

“That’s good,” I said. “You’ll have this ce to yourself. So you can bring anyone you like. We won’t be here to hear itb.” /b

He pushed my shoulder. “I’m not like you, you bastard. I have some decorum.”

I raised both hands in surrender. “It’s not like I knew you wereing back. You should have told us.”

“Nah,” he said, shaking his head. “I know you have the money to make those walls soundproof, but you didn’t for this very reason. You’ve achieved your purpose. I’ll be soundproofing mine, so don’t even bother.”

I chuckled, and a small smile appeared on his lips.

“You’re actually not bad,” I said to myself. “It seems Tessa’s taste in friends has always been great.”

“Of course it has,” he said smugly. “It’s only her taste in men that’s questionable.”

“She still chose me, though,” I retorted.

“I know,” he muttered. “But you two do make a good pair, so I can’tin now, can I?”

I smiled and held out my hand to him. He looked at it for a while before shaking his head. Then, he grabbed my hand and shook it firmly–probably thinking that he could hurt me, but it did nothing more than make my hand itch.

“Invite me to the wedding, will you?”
