Aliana was more than tired by the time everyone left Tristan's rooms. Tristan chuckled and scooped Aliana up from his chair to carry her in his arms.
"I want you to stay in my bed while you're here," Tristan grumbled tiredly. "I always wanted to share this bed with the right person."
"Am I that right person or are you getting rid of me so she can join you?" Aliana teased.
"Oh you're not going anywhere," Tristan growled. He threw her onto the bed and crawled on top of her.
Aliana giggled as Tristan unlaced the front of her dress and pulled it from her body. Tristan knelt down on the bed and unlaced her boots, taking them off along with her stockings. Once she was only in her shift, he kicked off his boots and pants and removed his shirt. He lifted the covers and furs over the two of them, pulled Aliana to his chest, and sighed deeply.
"Right where you want me?" Aliana asked as she settled against Tristan.
