Rain had spent her morning learning to ride, and time had flown by faster than she'd expected. Now, she and Alexander were riding together on the horse he had gifted her. She had named it Snow, fitting for its pure white coat, as bright and pristine as freshly fallen snow.
The two of them moved in sync with the horse's graceful rhythm, enjoying the quiet moments in each other's company.
"Isn't riding me better?" Alexander teased in her ear, his voice low and playful as he sat behind her, his arms securely wrapped around her waist.
"Pervert!" Rain shot back, her face twisting into a mock scowl, though the smile tugging at her lips betrayed her. Alexander chuckled, clearly enjoying the banter. She couldn't deny it… he'd become way too comfortable teasing her like this. But the truth was, she loved it. Their playful exchanges, even when they veered into intimate territory, always left her smiling.
