Herman Salstrom was just grabbing a quick nap when he felt the familiar warmth of Anastasia Jewell settling onto his lap. Her soft whisper in his ear jolted him awake.
He opened his eyes to find Anastasia looking irresistibly charming, and his heart skipped a beat. With a playful smile, she wrapped her arms around his neck and teased, "Were you really asleep?"
Herman chuckled, giving her waist a gentle squeeze, "Quit teasing. I was just joking before. You're still recovering; we can wait until you're feeling better."
She pouted playfully, "Not in the mood? Alright then."
Herman was momentarily at a loss for words.
Anastasia stood up, walked to the window, closed it, and pulled the curtains with deliberate intent. Then she went to the door and locked it securely.
Herman watched her with an amused grin. "Are we plotting something big here?"
She shrugged and slipped under the covers, "I'm actually a bit tired today. Let's just rest. If you're not up for it, you can crash in the guest room."
With the door locked? Her little act was pretty clear.
She was sulking.
Herman chuckled and joined her under the covers. "Honey, are you mad?"
Anastasia blinked innocently, "Why would I be mad?"
Her eyes sparkled with mischief.
Herman laughed softly. She reached out to gently pinch his neck, teasing, "Do you want it or not?"
He burst into laughter. Anastasia was just messing around, not serious at all.
"Who even asks like that?" Herman stopped laughing and caught her hand. "Honey, we really don’t have to—"
"It’s fine," Anastasia smiled.
Herman knew what she was getting at.
He thought it was too much to ask of her, but Anastasia was more than willing. She wanted to do this for him.
He tried to stop her, "Honey, I really appreciate it."
Anastasia brushed his hand aside, "You’ve done so much for me, let me do something for you."
With her saying that, Herman couldn’t argue.
From the moment he met Anastasia, he knew he was destined to fall for her. And not just in this lifetime—he’d be willing for all eternity.
