Chapter 401 Siege

"Ah... I'm going to be late. I've never missed the morning patrol before..."

Catherine Carter threw back the covers, glanced at the clock on the wall, and a flash of slight panic crossed her still-flushed, pretty face.

She then cast another look at Leonard Churchill lying beneath her and asked with a smile, "Will you rest a little longer? I must go out now."

Leonard Churchill, on the other hand, hadn't felt any particular way about it, instead he was happy to enjoy this laid-back pleasure.

He wasn't one to sleep in either, so he sat up, conveniently with one hand still holding Catherine's elastic bottom, and said, "No, I should be getting up too."
