In the guest room, now bathed in the soft morning light, Iridelle adjusted the elegant violet robe around her, a delicate blush rising on her cheeks. She glanced at Alaric, who was now fully dressed in a dark grey tunic that accentuated his broad shoulders and lean physique.
"Young Master Alaric," she began shyly, her purple eyes sparkling, "You look… very dashing in that attire." She fidgeted with the silken sash of her robe, her gaze flitting over his handsome features. "It suits you remarkably well."
Alaric, who was just fastening the buckle of his belt, turned towards her, a playful smirk curving his lips. His ruby eyes raked over her figure, taking in the way the violet robe draped over her curves, hinting at the voluptuousness beneath. In a swift motion, he closed the distance between them, his hands settling firmly on her buttocks, his fingers kneading the soft flesh through the silken fabric.
