Chapter 46 She Wasn't Weak

After Daryl said that, a silence ensued between them for a moment. Then, she heard Zack's deep voice.

"Come here."

"What?"

Before she had the chance to figure out what he meant, she was pulled by his strong arms and felt a familiar embrace.

"You..."

Daryl wanted to ask what he was trying to do, but Zack had already held her slender waist with one hand and placed his other arm beside her face with one fell swoop. "Just shut up and sleep," he ordered.

Although she was in his arms, this particular position was comfortable enough for her to fall asleep. And more importantly, with his arms around her, she wouldn't be able to move around restlessly. After that, they managed to get a good night's sleep.

The following day, Daryl was awakened by her biological clock. As soon as she woke up, she stretched out her slender arm and touched the space beside her. I was cold. 'Zack has already gotten up?' Then, Daryl pushed off the quilt and got out of bed. She found that the door was open, so she went straight back to her room and washed up. When she got into the bathroom, she realized that her face wasn't as swollen as it was yesterday.

As she stared at herself in the mirror, Daryl couldn't resist thinking of how Zack helped her fall asleep.

The moment she got ahold of herself, she realized that she was blushing.

"What on earth am I thinking about?"

Daryl dabbed her face with cold water. How could she crave for Zack's embrace? He was always so cold and the only time she felt warm around him was when he was asleep. After calming herself down, Daryl went downstairs. "Mommy!"

When she reached the stairway, Benjamin rushed to her side and hugged her thigh. "You're finally awake! I was planning to wake you up for breakfast!"

Bending down to hold him up, Daryl asked, "Is that so?

Bennie, why did you lock me and your daddy in the room last night?"

"Shouldn't it be normal for Mommy and Daddy to sleep in the same room?"

Benjamin answered in an innocent voice. "All the TV dramas I've watched are like this!"
