Chapter 39: Let the Party Begin

*VICKY*

That night, in addition to the pleasing sex, Leon also talked to me a lot about his history. I also reciprocated by telling him a lot of my past stories—about my life as a CEO, a designer, a pilot, a Queen. He deserved to know everything, and the weight I felt fall off my shoulders was unlike anything else I’d experienced.

Leon’s hand ran lazily through my hair as he pushed it to the side.

“You know,” he began. “The darkness and whole medieval vibe down here is something I could get used to.”

“Yeah?” I replied with a smirk.

Leon buried his head into my neck. “Yeah. As long as you’re here…I can overcome anything.”

I groaned and pushed him away.

“What?! I thought you lived for the sappiness.”

“I did, but then I realized how much I liked being on my own. I should really reconsider that idea…” I teased, shooting a wink at him.
