Chapter 87.

Nelly’s POV.

As we arrived at our pack, I stretched my arms and groaned, feeling the stiffness from the journey. I felt a pair of hands wraps around my waist, and I looked up to see Kex’s mischievous smile. He pressed a kiss to my nose, and my cheeks flushed red.

“I was just going,” the maid stammered. I put my hand on her arm, stopping her. I looked around the room, all eyes on me.
