His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 474

That night, Stephen dropped by Tessa's villa to have dinner with her. Wynn had gotten used to this arrangement and did her best to minimize her presence as much as possible. She disappeared immediately after dinner was over.

After taking a shower, Tessa and Stephen lay on the bed. It was a rare occasion—Stephen wasn't interested in making love to her that night.

"You're holding back well tonight," Tessa teased.

Stephen grinned in response. "I have an important meeting tomorrow morning. It would be unwise to overexert myself tonight."

She chuckled lightly. "We could turn in for the night early if we finish early."

"Finish early? You're underestimating your future husband." Stephen pulled Tessa against his chest. "Once we start, I won't let you off the hook until the wee hours of the morning."

"Sleep, then." Tessa burrowed into the blankets. "Good night."

Stephen propped his head on his palm and watched her for a few moments before saying, "I'm not sleepy yet. I won't be able to fall asleep."

A pair of doe eyes peeked at him from beneath the blankets. "Is that so? What should we do, then?"

Stephen's eyes crinkled. "Why don't you try coaxing me to sleep?"

"Me?" Surprise washed over Tessa's face. "Coax you to sleep?"

"Yes, I want you to coax me to sleep." A smile stretched across Stephen's lips. "I was always the one coaxing you to sleep in the past. You've never done the same for me."

Tessa snorted in amusement. "How old are you? Why do you still need someone to coax you to sleep?"

Stephen replied lazily, "I can't sleep, so you can either coax me to sleep or—"

Mirth shimmered in Stephen's eyes, which were as dark as ink. He shot a mischievous look at Tessa.

"We'll have to partake in some strenuous activities. We'll tire ourselves out until the crack of dawn, then we'll sleep. It's a good plan—I just might have to miss out on a few hours of sleep. It's no big deal."

Tessa stared at him wordlessly. She ultimately decided to coax him to sleep. After all, coaxing him to sleep was far easier than having to sleep with him. Besides, she also had to appear in court tomorrow morning at 9:00 am. She couldn't fool around with him until the middle of the night.
