“Sleep, Lennox. Don’t think you can distract me from the fact that you need to sleep.”

Her hand drifted lower. “Are you sure I can’t distract you?”

“Lennox. You need sleep.” She was going to be the death of me.

“Fine.” She sighed.

She kissed me one more time before falling back onto the bed. She put a little extra sway in her hips as she crawled towards her side.

I scrubbed my hands over my face and adjusted my aching cock. It was technically our wedding night—no.Sleep was more important tonight.

I shuffled in next to her. Pulling her against my chest and the covers over us. I placed a kiss on her temple. “I love you.”

Her arms around my waist tightened.

“Until the stars turn to dust.”

“Until the stars turn to dust.”

The sun was shining in my eyes sooner than I hoped. My limbs still ached with exhaustion as my eyes squinted against the sun. Based on where the sun sat in the sky I guessed we had gotten a few hours of sleep. Enough to get us through the day, but not enough to quell the bone-deep exhaustion after the events of theprevious days.

“Not yet,” Lennox grumbled from beside me.

“You can go back to sleep if you want. You don’t have to get up yet if you don’t want to.”

She didn’t open her eyes as she spoke. “I have to go and be High Queen. There was an attack of Dhampirs at our wedding reception. Someone tried to poison us. There are intruders in our dungeon.”

“Fuck.” I scrubbed my hand over my face, attempting to rub the sleep from my eyes. “We have to get up, don’t we?”

“Probably would be best.”

She rolled so her arms laid haphazardly over my body, her head on my chest. “Making me sleep was a good call. I’m still exhausted, but I needed it.”

“So you’re saying you’re not mad I made you sleep for a few hours instead of fucking you for hours?”

She scoffed. “Well, I wouldn’t put it that way.” She danced her fingers up and down my chest.

“Lennox Adair, you insatiable creature.”

Her hand moved lower until it gripped my cock. I groaned as she stroked up my length.

“What can I say?” She removed her hand from my cock and swung her leg over my waist so she was straddling me. The robe she had slept in was loose, the tie coming apart from her movements while she slept. Slowly, she moved her hips, rubbing herself against me. She tilted her head back as she continued to move. I slipped my hands under her robe gathered at her thighs, resting my hands on her hips to guide her movements.

As she moved her robe parted further, revealing one of her perfectly rounded breasts. I sat up and took her nipple in my mouth, flicking my tongue over the tight bud.

“Fuck, Luka. I need you. Now.”

My mouth moved up her chest, kissing and sucking my way up to her neck. “Take what you need from me, Lennox.”

The little moan that slipped out of her mouth sent blood directly to my cock. She lifted her hips, taking my cock in bothof her hands and directed it to her soaked center. I hissed as she slid the tip of my cock inside her.

She bit her bottom lip between her teeth as she pushed down another inch. Without warning she slid the rest of the way on my cock, throwing her head back in pleasure as I continued to suck on her neck.

“Astria’s tits, you feel so good squeezing the life out of my cock.”

She panted, tipping her head to meet my gaze. “The only tits you should be talking about while you’re inside me are mine.”

“Noted, Sweetheart.” With that, I moved my mouth to her breast, kneading her other one with my hand as she started to move again.
