Interrupting a loving moment
Jeslyn was sleeping when she felt a soft touch. She stirred but didn't open her eyes. Her day was hectic and she was dead tired. What she needed the most at the moment was a good sleep.
She snuggled into Valen and held the child closer to herself.
Looking at the child that was occupying his space, Maverick clenched his jaw. He waited for a while before peeling Jeslyn away from Valen but the moment he did, Valen mumbled some inaudible words in his sleep and drew closer to Jeslyn again, making Maverick's effort of separating them to be in vain.
Maverick took a deep breath. He glanced at the two and suddenly curled his lips. He roughly picked up Jeslyn and headed to the door, leaving Valen alone to sleep on Jeslyn's bed.
His intention was to join them in bed but since they didn't want him in their midst, he'd gladly be the villain who separates him.
