The next morning, Caspian’s eyes opened at his usual time. He grunted a little when his chest felt a little heavier than normal.
He opened his eyes to find that Anastasia was still comfortably sleeping on his chest. He couldn’t help but smile when he ran his mildly warm palms over her bare back.
“Mmm…” Anastasia let out a throaty voice when she felt Caspian’s hands sliding against her back. His hands were a little colder than her body even when he was absorbing some heat from her as well as the warm blanket.
‘I think I should let her sleep,’ Caspian thought to himself when Anastasia didn’t show any signs of waking up any time soon.
He tightly held Anastasia with his arms and slowly shifted on his side. And he gently lay his wife down on the bed beside him.
Seeing Anastasia opening her eyes in her half-asleep state, Caspian brought his face closer to her and said after planting a soft and loving kiss on her forehead, “Go back to sleep. I will see you later.”
