Chapter: 463
"I'll fix you something to eat," she said, pulling away his hand.
"Then we can sleep. OK?"
Her voice softened without her intending it to.
Caden's throat worked visibly.
"Now it's not just my stomach that's hungry, he said with a raspy voice. "I'm feeling hungry here too."
His hand wandered southwards.
Alicia's cheeks were hot as she headed to the kitchen, feeling completely overwhelmed.
She quickly prepared a plate of pasta, which Caden devoured entirely.
Afterward, the evening took a more intimate turn.
This time, Caden was gentle, taking his time.
Alicia experienced intense pleasure, more than once.
Exhausted, she nestled into Caden's arms and fell asleep swiftly.
The next morning, a noise woke her.
Opening her eyes, she saw Caden dressing, his back to her, standing tall and straight.
It was an impressive sight.
Alicia watched him for a moment before instinctively rubbing her waist, expecting the usual soreness, but surprisingly, she felt much better today.
She murmured in confusion.
They had been passionate for hours the night before, and she had succumbed to sleep from sheer exhaustion. Why wasn't she fatigued?
As Caden buckled his belt and turned to see her clutching the blanket and staring at him, he asked, “What are you Looking at?"
She replied, looking at him, “Nothing. I just feel unexpectedly revitalized."
She rose from the bed, standing tall and confident.
Caden looked at her quizzically. “Revitalized for what exactly?"
"I feel invincible," Alicia declared proudly, her energy palpable.
"I've never recovered this quickly. No matter the intensity, I seem to wake up energized after a good night's rest," she boasted, laughing robustly.
She exuded the aura of a heroine ready to conquer the world.
Caden was momentarily speechless.
He then nodded towards the bedside table.
"You're overthinking it. You're not tired simply because I applied some ointment on you last night."
Alicia, taken aback, glanced at the bottle of ointment.
She picked it up and scrutinized it, noting that one of the ingredients was particularly rare, explaining its potent effect.
