Chapter 335 – Good Morning

Translator: Atlas / Editor: Regan

When Leah woke, she was still in his warm arms, feeling as if she were wrapped up by vines. Looking at him, she smiled.

Usually, he was the first to wake. And even on the rare occasions when she woke up before him, Ishakan almost immediately stirred. She hardly ever got to see him sleeping.

But he gave no sign of rousing now, and as she watched him, she realized that he really was very, very tired.

It made a bitter feeling wash through her, and she reached out a careful hand to caress his cheek. Suddenly, she remembered how he had always used to look.

“……”

Before, she had found his expression somewhat frightening. And maybe it hadn’t changed that much, except for his affection when he looked at Leah. But now, with his eyes shut and sleeping so peacefully, she couldn’t help thinking that he looked…adorable.

No one would have ever believed it. He was such a fearsome man. But Leah was sure that anyone who saw him at this moment would have had to agree. Ishakan was so cute.

And the thought of anyone else looking at him like this made her very jealous.

But he only ever slept like this before her. Unprotected. The only person he shared his soul with was his wife.

Unable to resist, she gently kissed her sleeping husband, and his closed eyelids flickered and fluttered open. There was already a smile in his eyes.

“Leah…”

He kissed the top of her head.

“You want more already?”

His hands moved to pull her lower body against his, and she could feel how stiff his manhood was, erect on first waking. More than once they had awakened and had frantic sex first thing in the morning, but he had already pushed her to the limit the night before. And she wanted him to sleep some more.

“Go back to sleep,” she whispered.

“If you promise to stay with me.”

“I will always be by your side.”

The promise was enough to make him close his eyes, and still wrapped in his arms, Leah was soon asleep again beside him.

“Mama…”

The whisper came some time later to wake Leah.

“Mama!” A light weight pounced on her. “Mama, wake up.”

Leah stirred as she felt several tickling kisses on her forehead, and then a sudden bite on her cheek. A deep voice spoke.

“Lesha.”

The light weight beside her disappeared, and Leah finally swam to full consciousness. Ishakan had lifted his offspring with one hand, and was pinching his son’s cheek.

“No biting your mother.”

“Father bites her all the time!”

“That’s something only fathers can do,” Ishakan replied, and Leah smiled as she watched the two arguing, Lesha’s face a scowling, miniature copy of his father’s.

“I tooked care of Mama while Father was gone,” the boy boasted as Ishakan lifted him over his shoulder. “And I hunted!”

“What did you hunt?”

“Bufflies! But I didn’t hurt it.”

He told his father all about how he had stalked his prey and then decided to let it go, and Ishakan smiled.

“Good boy,” he said. “You will take the name Kan.”

Lesha beamed proudly at his father’s praise, and both pairs of golden eyes turned to Leah at the same time.

“Mama!” Lesha cried at once. “It’s morning!”

Ishakan lowered their son onto the bed and Lesha rushed over to fling himself into Leah’s arms, as if he had been waiting forever for a hug. Leah kissed his forehead, smiling up at Ishakan.

“Good morning,” she told him.

With the three of them together, it must be.
