This was a feeling he had never experienced before.
He looked down at Natalie in his arms, a little disbelieving. She was sleeping deeply, seemingly exhausted. He found, to his surprise, that he liked this feeling—holding her close filled a void in his heart he didn’t know was there.
Having secretly slept beside her twice before, he knew she was a heavy sleeper at night.
She would kick the blankets and occasionally turn over, completely oblivious to her surroundings.
Sebastian shook his head slightly. A silly girl like her could be carried off and sold in the middle of the night and she wouldn’t even know.
The usual coldness in Sebastian's deep, dark eyes gradually softened, a hint of affection creeping into his gaze.
Natalie slept until seven in the morning.
When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Sebastian.
She froze, startled. Him and her…
Natalie quickly sat up, only then realizing she had been moved.
Her movement woke Sebastian.
“How did I end up sleeping here?” Natalie asked in shock.
Sebastian saw the look of disgust in her eyes, and a chill returned to his own. His tone became clipped. “Where did you want to sleep? In Marshall’s bed?”
Natalie was speechless.
“Of course not!”
She sat up properly, rubbing her sore shoulder.
She hadn’t slept well, and she felt almost sick.
“I was sleeping fine over there. Did you move me?”
She glared at him, offering no gratitude.
Sebastian frowned but didn’t answer.
