In the deepest night, Cassius woke up gently from his bed. Though his beloved girl was asleep, he couldn't immediately close his eyes and allow for his consciousness to drift yet.
From the corner of his eyes, he caught how her shoulders were exposed without a clothing and gently pulled her blanket until her neck, making sure that she wasn't exposed to anything cold and turn sick.
She couldn't be sick after all, not when they have promised to marry each other, promising to become one as a family.
"Hmn, no more," Arabella softly grunted, curling like a small little mouse.
Cassius chuckled as he could tell those words were muttered to him as he had refused to let her sleep earlier. He couldn't help it himself, not when she just whispered how much she wanted to become a family with him too.
They would need children to be a complete family and he promised to work even harder to help her achieve the dream.
