He found being in Alexis’ company incredibly relaxing. Perhaps it was her excellence and the lack of major concerns in her life that made their time together feel so effortless and uncomplicated, except when it came to matters of deep principle.

Leonel thought about Waylen and Rena.

He hoped that he and Alexis could emulate their relationship.

A couple filled with love and happiness, together for a lifetime!

They stayed out until midnight. Despite the enchanting atmosphere, Alexis noticed that Leonel, who had kissed her with deep passion on the bed didn't take things further.

Driven by curiosity, Alexis opened her eyes and parted her red lips.

Her voice sounded a bit raspy as she said, “Leonel, is something the matter?"

Leonel kissed the tip of her nose and muttered between each kiss, "Let's wait until we go back to Duefron."

Alexis leaned into him and traced his nose gently with her fingers.

"You're so particular about locations, aren't you?"

He laughed softly and replied, “I can't say. Are you always this intense with your requests?"

His tone suddenly became serious. "Do you lie awake at night thinking of it? Needing me to be there to mess with you? Alexis, is it comfortable being in my bed?"

Alexis rolled her eyes at him and lay flat, her gaze fixed blankly on the ceiling. “Let's just go to sleep."

Clearly, he was quite the mischievous one!

Despite Alexis' wish to sleep, the man was intrigued and wasn't ready to let her go. He drew her close again and nibbled on her nose.

"Tell me, and I'll let you rest."

She bit her lip and looked at him. "I've told you what I want. Why aren't you acting on it?"

Leonel was shocked.

He wanted to dismiss her remark, but it seemed to challenge his pride.

Alexis was not one to beg either.
