Reed had the strange impression that their bodies had just had sex, and their souls were now making love. And maybe that was true.

He lay down on top of Katuri and put his face between her neck and shoulder. She cradled his upper back and held him tightly against her. They lay like that long enough for his cock to finally slip out of her.

"Ah!" Katuri gasped, and Reed felt her hand between their bodies, reaching to her crotch. She giggled softly and said, "Well, if you keep coming so much inside me, I'll never stop birthing your babies."

Reed chuckled as well and braced himself on his forearms. He looked into her relaxed face, the warm smile she gave him, and something stirred inside him just by looking at Katuri and holding her in his arms.

"I'm so happy with you, Katuri." He put his head on her chest.

"So am I, Reed," she purred softly and began to stroke his hair.

And just like that, they peacefully fell asleep.

CHAPTER TEN

Reed slowly opened his eyes, feeling better than ever. A sense of renewed vitality washed over him. As he lifted his head, he became aware of a warm presence beside him. Turning, he saw Katuri snuggled against his side, her sharp features softened by the mellow morning light, looking at him with a tender smile, her violet eyes sparkling like two amethysts.

Reed's heart swelled with emotion.

"Hey, how long have you been awake?"

Katuri leaned in to nuzzle his chest. "Long enough to realize how lucky I am to have found a good and handsome man like you," she whispered, her gaze even more intense.

"I'm the lucky one here, Katuri," he said sincerely. "I still can’t wrap my head around how I found such a wise, strong, and beautiful woman."

"You say that so often, I’m starting to believe it." Katuri winked.

"You better." Reed sported a roguish smirk.

As they kissed, Reed knew this was where he belonged—in Katuri's arms. Today, yesterday’s fears and doubts seemed so far away, irrelevant. He was hopeful and full of optimism. He felt like the luckiest man alive; finally, everything was as it was meant to be.

When they finally pulled away, Katuri gave a grin and said, "I'll make us some breakfast. What do you say?"

Reed's stomach growled at the mention of food, but he hesitated. "Actually, I think we should collect some eggs first. We can’t have breakfast without fresh eggs, right?"

Katuri’s eyes sparkled with amusement. "You’re right, of course. I forgot we’re on a farm now. No more stealing pheasant eggs!"

Reed cracked up, feeling a sense of excitement. "Speaking of which, I want to show you around the farm. Yesterday, we were a bit distracted, don’t you think?"

Katuri nodded with enthusiasm. "Yes! I’d love to see it. Lead the way, my sweet farmer."

Reed chuckled, and they began to dress. Then, he took her hand and led her out of the house into the bright morning sunlight. The air was crisp and clean, filled with the scent of blooming wildflowers and the chirping of birds.

As they walked, Reed pointed out the various parts of the farm. "Over there is the chicken coop. And just beyond that, you’ll see the vegetable garden—though it’s a bit neglected now. I want to expand it so we can grow more food. Behind that slope is our main field for larger crops. With the help of our beautiful new mare, plowing will be much easier."

Katuri's eyes widened as she took in the sights. "It's lovely here." Her voice filled with wonder. "I like that you called all of this ours."

Reed looked at her with seriousness. "Because now all of this is yours too, Katuri."

She blinked rapidly and turned her face away, as if wanting to hide her emotions.

Seeing her reaction, Reed took her hand again and led her back.

"Speaking of our horse, we need to build her a little stable. What do you think? Could you give me a hand with the construction?" he asked as they were heading toward the chicken coop.

"Of course, Reed. I’m glad that you asked. I’ll be happy to help." She glanced toward the mare, she added, “Yeah, she definitely needs a house too. By the way, what is her name?"

“Hah! I haven’t thought about it yet; I had too much on my plate to do so. But maybe you have some ideas?”
