She slept deeply, without nightmares. Leah woke feeling refreshed, though she was a little startled when she opened her eyes. Her surroundings were unfamiliar, but there was also a pair of arms wrapped around her body, hugging her from behind. The manâs soft breath tickled her ear and though she was only wearing a thin nightgown and partially covered by the blanket, she didnât feel cold at all.
ââ¦â¦â
Leah opened her mouth to speak, but reconsidered. After a momentâs uncertainty, she bit her lip and cautiously tried to move away. Her hands looked very white compared to the tanned skin of his arms.
ââ¦â¦!â
Just as she was about to move away, the hands wrapped around her waist and belly moved upward over her br3asts. At Leahâs gasp of astonishment, he rubbed her br3asts and kissed the back of her neck. His deep voice spoke.
âAre you already awake?â
Ishakan was smiling at her when she turned around, his eyes slightly mischievous.
âHow⦠long have I been asleep?â
âA little over a day.â
Fortunately, she hadnât slept for several days this time. Slowly, she nodded. His golden eyes stared at her, measuring. She still looked a little sleepy.
Ishakan licked his lips. His gaze moved to her br3asts, her n!pples protruding through the thin nightgown. When she saw him looking, Leah covered them with her hands.
Frowning discontentedly, he rose, reaching for a nearby jug to drink some water, and then extended it to Leah. It was an inconceivable thing to do, drinking straight from a jug, contrary to all Estian manners, but Leah lifted it to her lips. Those things didnât matter. She wasnât in Estia anymore.
The stream of water flowing down her dry throat felt refreshing. As soon as she was finished, Ishakan kissed and hugged her, biting her lips.
âStarting today, we have to kiss five times a day,â he whispered.
âFive timesâ¦?â
âItâs mandatory, Leah,â he said softly. Leah nodded automatically, still a little dazed. âIt seems my bodily fluids help with your spells.â
ââ¦â¦?â
âYou canât do that every day, right? Thatâs why we have to kiss.â He ran his fingers gently over her lips. âOf course, if itâs okay with you, I can do it every day to help you.â
It wouldnât be okay, she was still sore from the last time. If they had s3x every night, she really might die. Ishakan smiled at her reproachful expression. At that moment, there was a polite knock at the door.
âMaster Ishakan. Itâs urgent.â The sound of the voice made Ishakan frown, and he clicked his tongue as he rose from the bed.
âI wonât be able to have breakfast with you. I will send you food with Genin, you must eat. If you want we can have lunch together later.â
Ishakan slid into a robe and then bent to kiss her forehead, then her nose, and then her lips.
âIâd like to stay with you.â Her eyes widened, and he smiled. âBut it canât be avoided.â
He cupped her cheeks in both hands.
âIâm busy preparing a gift for you.â
