The Sorcerer's Bride Chapter 65

Zylvia sleepily looked at her husband . She was unsure why he was suddenly apologizing to her . Being half-asleep she wrapped her arms around him, and murmured softly into his ear, "What do you have to apologize for, my darling husband? You're wonderful . "

She nestled close to her sorcerer, ready to fully go back to sleep . His arms around her were so comfortable and gave her a sense of security . Before she completely dropped off, though, she heard what her husband whispered into her hair, "I . . . I have trouble saying certain things . Even if I want to . . . and I do, I just . . . they won't come out . So be patient with me, please, dear?"

She did not answer as she had fallen asleep . When she woke up, she was still cocooned in his embrace, with her head resting under his chin . She could only vaguely recall what they had said the night before . Something about an apology . She could clearly remember Kaldrek asking her to be patient with him though .

Was it about her asking him if he loved her? She shifted uncomfortably, a blush spreading across her cheeks . What had she been thinking asking him that, anyway? She hid her face closer into him .

Advertisement"Mmm . . . " Hearing the slight sound coming from her husband, Zylvia froze a little . While she was getting used to being in his arms, she found herself in a fluster today . Perhaps due to the question she had never gotten an answer to .

His hands pulled on her body, tugging her just a little bit closer . She felt his lips press on the top of her head, leaving a tingling feeling of warmth . One of his hands began rubbing up and down her spine, leaving a tingly feeling .

"You awake, Zylv?" There was a half-asleep quality to his voice . Not that he sounded tired or anything, just like he had only just woken up . Which was true . She would probably force him to sleep again if he had been tired .

"Mhm," She kept herself tucked into him . She did not want to get up yet, and moving sluggishly might just deter her husband from suggesting they get up .

Kaldrek, much to her joy, seemed to not really want to get out of bed either . He merely held her extremely close to himself, something she was admittedly good with .

If time stopped right then, Zylvia would not have been upset . Waking up wrapped up in the arms of the man she loved was an incredible feeling . One she was getting to experience everyday .

"Zylv, I . . . can we stay like this a while longer?" He squeezed her, burying his face in her messy hair .

"Of course," She pushed herself up against him, tightening her arms that were around him . "Gladly, Kaldrek . "

"Thank you," Her husband's voice was muffled as he spoke directly into her hair, "I really like waking up to you, you know . "

"Really?"

"Of course, I sleep much better when I am with you . "

"Kaldrek . . . " She shook her head, laughing at him, "Is that the only reason?" She decided that a bit of teasing would be fun .

"Of course not Zylv," He chuckled gently, "It is just the easiest one for me to say . "

Her husband suddenly pulled a little back, gazing down at her in a way that made her heart start beating, "Zylv, you test my self-control to its limits, keeping my hands off of you was the hardest thing I have ever done . "

He captured her lips with his, prying her mouth open as he did so . Not that she made it hard for him . She happily kissed him back, enjoying the sensations that came with it .

When he pulled back, he leaned his forehead against hers . His smile was filled with a warmth she was enjoying seeing on him .

After awhile of staying in bed teasing each other, Kaldrek reluctantly pulled away . They got dressed, Kaldrek making her let him brush her hair . She still found it startling for him to enjoy doing her hair .

As she went to open the door, her husband grabbed hold of her . Spinning her around, he pushed her against the wall, being careful not to hurt her . He kissed her again, thoroughly, one of his hands cupped her face, the other fondled her waist .

He was just pulling away from her when they heard the scream .
