Capítulo 278: A Ring.

As he promised, Nicklaus let her sleep while he slowly cleaned her up. He was careful not to let water touch her hair. She made small sounds a couple of times but it wasn't enough to wake her. 

Done with cleaning her, Nicklaus dried her body and took her into the bedroom. Arissa has never been a deep sleeper but things changed ever since she knew Nicklaus. 

She was scared to trust him with her heart but her brain already trusted him so much and it was evident by the fact that she stayed fast asleep until he put her on one of his shirts and shorts before tucking her under his red duvet. 

Nicklaus did not leave. He stayed beside her for minutes, simply caressing her face and smiling at her in silence. 

Five minutes later, his expression turned serious and his lips parted, "You're an angel," he murmured. 

He took the duvet off her and placed his hand on his stomach, "You do not know how bad I want my mini-me inside of you," he said with a small smile.
