Isabelle woke to the sensation of kisses being trailed along her shoulder, and a familiar large, warm body pressed against her back. Strong arms encircled her waist, holding her tightly against a broad chest. Soft hair tickled her cheek as she snuggled closer, sighing contentedly.
"Morning already?" She muttered blearily, opening one eye to peek at Lyov.
"Not yet." He answered quietly. His voice rumbled through her ear where he rested his chin atop her head. "There's still time left before morning."
"Mm..." She yawned lazily, stretching languidly and enjoying the feeling of his embrace. It was rare for her to wake up in this position with Lyov; he was often one who slept further away from her in bed when all her husbands were there. "Good. Don't wanna..."
She was tired.
Exhausted.
