I leave her breast and kiss her parted mouth, drinking in her moans and cries as my cock moves inside her, harder and faster with each stroke.
Elowen
I wince as I turn onto my side. The first thing I feel, even before I’m fully awake, is soreness in my lower region, so deep it feels like I’ve been fucked at least ten times. My eyes fly open as fragments of yesterday come rushing back.
I look around my room. There’s no one here. Then I look down at my clothes. I’m wearing my blue silk pajamas, but I don’t remember changing into them.
My skull feels like it’s splitting apart.Did I drink too much last night? What did I do all day yesterday?I only have a blur of the whole day. When I try to recall, my head throbs harder. I try to sit up, and it hurts. I wince.
I have a faint memory of Hunter being here last night. Nothing explains this state better than him being here, and us having sex. My head spins as I climb out of bed.What’s wrong with me? Why do I have such a hangover?
Instead of going to the bathroom, I move to my door, unlock it, and walk out. I even left Bruno and Rosie outside. Using the wall for support, I make my way toward the stairs.
I spot May at the bottom of the stairs and call out weakly. She looks up, drops the box she’s holding, and rushes upstairs.
“What happened, miss? You don’t look well.”
I nod. I’m sweating and shaking.
“Where are Bruno and Rosie? Are they okay?”
She takes my hand for support and turns me back toward my room. “Yes, they’re fine, playing in the garden. They’ve had their breakfast.”
“Where is Salvario?”
“He went out for some work. He instructed me to give you your tea once you’re up.”
She guides me to sit on the bed. “You rest here. I’ll be back with your tea and breakfast. Or should I call the doctor first?”
I shake my head, it spins. “No, just tea and food.”
She nods and leaves. I hold my head in my shaking hands. It feels like my blood pressure has bottomed out.
May returns with my tea and hands it to me.
“When do you want me to bring you breakfast?”
I take a sip. Whatever new changes Salvario has made to it, they’re magical. Within a few sips, I feel so much better.
“I’ll come down for breakfast. I think I’ll feel better soon.”
She nods. “Call me if you want me to bring it up.”
I nod, and she leaves.
I finish the tea. Within a few minutes, the shaking and headache are gone. I smile, feeling completely at ease and buzzing with energy.
Chapter 38
Persephone
I rest my head on Alessio’s shoulder.He kisses my head, keeping his focus fixed on his tablet. It’s habit for him, kissing me whenever I get close.
“I’m feeling strange,” I sigh.
He puts the tablet down and looks at me. “What happened?”
I sit straight. “Nothing’s happened, it’s just a bad feeling, like the one I had when Wen was taken two years ago.”
