I never wanted to leave, but the next thing I know, Alejandro shuffles and slowly wakes up.
It seems like fate has other plans. In the hope that it will lull him back to sleep, I cling to him even more tightly and bury my fingers in his short, soft, dark hair.
A lamentable endeavor I knew wouldn't work, yet needed to attempt. It felt so regular and I wasn't hearing any grumbling from Alejandro.
In point of fact, the moment I heard him hum in contentment and pull me closer to him, wrapping both of his arms around my waist and cradling me against his chest while soft sighs left his lips that were perilously close to my ear, I nearly lost my heart.
This man had no clue about how appealing he was. I open my eyes and lift my head from the crook of his neck, grinning at him through sleepy eyes because I suddenly need to hear his sexy morning voice.
