Tossing and turning on the bed,she just wanted to get some sleep.

Just as she was on the brink of slumber,she felt a pair of strong arms embrace her on the bed and then a deep voice called out her name.

Startled,her eyes opened widely.

The moonlight cast a faint glow upon the bed in the dark room.

Sitting up,Daphne realized she had been dreaming about Griffin holding her.

Heck, it had felt so real.

The bedroom door creaked open and Griffin quietly walked in.

Seeing Daphne sitting up on the bed,he slowly walked up to her and sat beside her.

“Why are you still awake?”He asked,running his hand through her hair.

Daphne sighed,heavily.”I can’t seem to fall asleep.”

And then he gently pull her close to him and made her lie her head on his shoulder.

    Jacob knew that had to be the perfume of the escort.Damn it!He should have gone home to change before coming here.Attempting to ease the situation, he mustered a smile and said, "This morning, I had to visit the hospital to change the dressing. Perhaps it's the lingering scent of the nurse's perfume that you're sensing."Lucia expressed her discontent, her dissatisfaction manifesting in fidgeting with her nails, as she grumbled, "That nurse must be exceptionally young and beautiful! You must have found great joy when she attended to your dressing."A chuckle escaped Jacob’s lips, as he playfully cupped her cheek, teasingly asking, "You don’t have to be jealous,my love.I have eyes for only you.”Deeply enamored by Jacob,Lucia’s suspicions were mere fleeting thoughts.He skillfully coaxed her and, in no time, a radiant smile adorned her face as she leaned affectionately against his shoulder.Anthony confidently placed his chess piece on the intricately carved chessboard, offering his
