Annoying Friends

Drayce walked towards the couch in the lounge area and settled himself comfortably. "I came to see how you are doing after finally being able to consummate your marriage." His voice laced with teasing.

"My wife was a minor," Drayce countered easily, "But once I had her, I didn't let her leave our chamber for the entire week. If not for her begging me to let her go and resume my work, it would have continued even longer. Obviously, unlike you, whose wife has left you alone the next morning."

"Stop showing off already," Arlan frowned. "Your wife didn't have the responsibilities of her maternal family tagging along with her. Good for you that they were desperate to send her away instead. Not everyone has such privilege when once wife solely focus on her husband."
