The next day when the sun rose up in the sky, Penny couldn't help herself but reach her hand where the rays of the sun pa.s.sed through the window of their room which they had slept in. It took a while for her hand to turn warm and when it did, a smile rose up her lips. The weather in Valeria was different when compared to Bonelake where the sun was hard to see. Here, even though it was the time of Winter, she could feel the warm sun. 

Just as she was enjoying and basking in the sunlight on her hand, she felt Damien's hand circled around her waist which pulled her to him. Holding her like it was his habit. 

Penny cleared her throat, first softly and then louder to hear Damien say, "I knew you would catch a cold by standing outside yesterday. Stay like this. I will warm you up soon," she heard him say. 

She was yet to get used to him holding her so closely in the bed. Until now the maximum she had willingly done was holding his hand in the bed but this was too intimate to her. 

"The fireplace will be much effective than you," she said wiggling out of his arms which he didn't allow as when she turned around to face him, Damien had pulled her back so that she faced him, "Where do you think you're going?" Leaning forward, he kissed her neck, placing b.u.t.terfly kissed on her that had something stir within her, reminding her of the time when they had shared the bath. Her toes curled at the thought of it. 

"We are in the Lord's house," she said pus.h.i.+ng him with her hands and wanting to step down from the bed which Damien was unwilling to do so.

"I don't think there's any rule that I cannot touch you when we are in the Lord's or anyone's house. I will touch you whenever and where I want," she gasped when he bit into her neck, "I am sure you already know that," he pulled back to whisper it and then take another bite without drawing blood but to suck and bite on her skin.

It was early in the morning and this man was already being like this-Ow! He had taken another bite on her skin. Did he think she was some kind of morning pre-snack? Seeing his exposed s.h.i.+rt and trailing her eyes up, she scooted closer and up before biting into his shoulder. 

She heard Damien wince. That's right! Always chomping on her, he had to know how it felt. Unfortunately, Damien didn't stop and her bite had only urged him on to claim more of her. Turning her body, he got on top of her while having her back against the surface of the bed. Dipping down his head, he bit more this time and her hands clutched on him as a sigh escaped her lips but Penny didn't give up! Using her elbows to get up, she pushed Damien on the other side of the bed where the foot often rested with both her hands. 

Damien was in a playful mood, seeing the girl earn some confidence as she had pushed him and he willingly had given himself to rest on the bed. After all, which man would refuse when his woman was initiating to kiss and bite? Only an insane one would. 

He could see the spark in her eyes which he enjoyed looking at. Her feelings were slowly s.h.i.+fting from the calm to embarra.s.sment with a hint of l.u.s.t that her body was starting crave. She leaned forward, biting him like a little kitten would, the teeth sharp but not sharp enough to hurt which he found it to be quite cute.  

Penny didn't know how adorable she looked through Damien's eyes if she did know she would have stopped doing it but unaware of what she was doing by biting him. His muscles were hard to bite on his chest and therefore she resorted to herself in biting his shoulders. 

Both Penny and Damien were so into it that they failed to notice when three people entered the room to only stop midway by looking at them. Penny who took another bite from Damien was busy when she heard someone to the side speak,

"Oh my, this is some treat for eyes."

It was a male's voice and it didn't belong to Damien. Her eyes snapped to the side to look at three pairs of legs and she quickly turned to look at Elliot who had a smug expression as if he were enjoying the scene. Behind stood Sylvia who looked almost as embarra.s.sed as her but embarra.s.sed for what Elliot said as she covered her eyes with her hand. Then there was the butler who had eyes cast down on the floor like he saw nothing, continuing to carry an expressionless face. 

"I told you to knock on the door!" Penny heard the whispered voice of Sylvia as she glared at him. 

"Who knew they were rabbits. I thought they would be sleeping but oh well this is a surprise," Elliot spoke enthusiastically. Damien didn't mind their presence and Penny could tell he instead enjoyed the attention the way she now sat on him with both her palms resting on his chest. 

Seeing Penny looking fl.u.s.tered, Damien asked, "Did the door vanish?"

"Oh, no, we used to get inside," Elliot answered and Sylvia only wished she hadn't followed the man to make her look like an idiot along with him. 

"We apologize for intruding. We'll leave," Sylvia started, the butler as if in agreement started to leave when Elliot said,

"We made an extensive plan to go out today. We'll leave the schedule up here," he said leaving a rolled parchment of the list he had made, "We'll see you both love birds in the dining room," he sent a wink and stepped out of the room as Sylvia pulled him by his sleeve.
