Chapter 231:

Caden poured all his intense emotions into his actions, knowing that Alicia couldn't handle too many things at once. A two-on-one rhythm was set. For every two rounds, they rested for an hour. The long winter night stretched on for more than ten hours, and Caden made sure to use the time efficiently, meeting his needs without overtaxing Alicia. Despite his attempts to be considerate, she fell into a deep sleep in the morning.

Caden, for his part, only slept for two hours before waking up. He accepted the breakfast served by the innkeeper, who couldn't help but notice his energy. You have impressive stamina, young man! She commented, amazed that after such an intense night, he was already on his feet.

Caden didn't bother showing false humility. It's the advantage of being young, he responded with a smile. At twenty-five, even staying up all night was not much of a challenge for him.

After breakfast, he sat by the window to work online. In the afternoon, a ray of sunlight filtered in, casting a soft glow on his keyboard. He looked up and was pleasantly surprised by the sunny weather, unusual for this time of year: an unexpected blessing. His gaze drifted towards the woman sleeping in the bed and a smile appeared on his lips.

They had talked a few days before, and Caden had assured her that everything was fine, asking her not to visit him. But after a few days, Gerry's concern had prompted him to call again.

Yes. We'll be back in a couple of days, Caden replied.

Gerry let out a sigh of relief, but then he caught something unusual in Caden's tone. It's already afternoon. Why do you sound like you just woke up? You've fallen asleep

Yes, I slept a little today, Caden replied, sounding cheerful.

Gerry scoffed: You've been put under a spell by Alicia. Your time. It's usually more valuable than gold, and yet here you are, lingering in bed.

Caden laughed. That's pretty accurate.
