True Love Waits

In the middle of the night, Sheffield walked into the bedroom with the keyboard, trembling from the cold. He closed the curtains and stood by the bed, looking at Evelyn, who was lazily leaning against the headboard. He cooed, "My queen, I've finished saying 'baby' a thousand times already. May I come to bed now?"

Trying hard to hold back her laughter, she said, "You may not."

"What? Why?"

"Shower first. You can sleep after that."

"As you say, my queen..." he sighed and threw the keyboard onto the corner sofa. He slowly dragged his feet into the bathroom.

After a quick hot shower, he dried his hair and threw himself onto the bed, naked. Before she could run away, he wrapped Evelyn up in his arms.

"I'm sleepy! Leave me alone now," she warned.

Sheffield didn't respond. He held her tight against his body.

Evelyn kicked him hard. "Cut it out. I want to sleep."

He didn't say anything; he couldn't keep his hands off her.

He silently slipped into the quilt and lay on top of her chest.

Evelyn felt his warmth, but she was also really sleepy. She hadn't gotten a good sleep in the past few days since she was worried about Sheffield. And she was exhausted after being tortured by him in the nightclub. She had intended to tell him about Napier tonight, but now, she didn't have the energy for that either.

Evelyn patted on the quilt without looking. It felt like she had hit him in the head. She didn't care. She mumbled, "Sheffield, behave yourself before I kill you."

She was so tired that her tone didn't sound as menacing as she meant it to be. It turned out like a soft, cute warning.

When Sheffield had no intention of moving away, Evelyn lost her temper and kicked the man once again.
