Warning: smut content.
The couch is large and comfortable, so I lie down and rest my head on a giant pillow. Alexander grabs a plate from the table and reaches me.
He passes an arm under my head, and I turn to the side to look at him. He leans the plate on the couch, just far enough so that I can't reach it.
I lift my head and glance at the content: grape.
«Alexander, can you put the plate closer?» I ask, blinking seductively.
«No,» he mutters, and he grabs my waist when I try to get up and reach it. «Down!»
I lie back on his chest and pout.
He can't just show food to this Duchess and then pretend she acts like a trained dog and waits patiently for his permission to eat.
«Here,» he whispers and feeds me a grape.
Needless to say, I accept the offer and munch in silence.
«Are you tired?» he whispers while reaching out for another grape.
«Not that much,» I answer and open my mouth to bite the fruit.
Maybe it's time to chill down. This autumn is turning out pretty hot for Theodora...
