Prince Benjamin's POV
Lying in bed beside Amara is a punishment for me. I can feel her heartbeat and she smells so good. I prefer to keep awake and watch her sleep, but I didn't realize my body felt so tired of being so restless for a couple of days. I fall asleep after I kissed her sweet lips, and I was awakened by the soft touches of her fingers on my rib cage, I want to pretend I am still sleeping because I love the way she brushed me, but the pleasure she brings with her every caress I wish to claim her lips once more.
But I realized she was touching me because of the tattoo on my chest. It feels warm and I can tell something is going on because I heard Amara sniffing and I wonder why is she weeping. I want to continue pretending I am sleeping, but I am more curious about what is happening to her. She let go of my embrace and moved away from me; I opened my eyes, and I saw the shaking of her shoulders as she whimpered.
