The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles) novel Chapter 215

Charles shook his head with a sigh and crawled into bed, feeling cozy and warm.

Noelle must have felt him moving because she suddenly rolled over and hugged him tight.

Charles froze for a second. He turned around to see Noelle sleeping peacefully, her lips moving slightly. The gentle glow in his eyes felt extra warm in the soft light.

Noelle slept well but woke up feeling a little sore. It was not as bad as some tales had made it out to be, but it still hurt.

She touched the warm spots on her body and smiled faintly at the light marks on her skin.

"Up already?"

Hearing Charles's clear voice, Noelle looked down, feeling a bit shy. "Yeah. Y-you woke up really early!" she said, her cheeks turning pink. "About yesterday..."

"What's wrong?" Charles asked, noticing her shy expression. He thought she might feel awkward about something that happened last night. He sat down beside her on the bed. Noelle was wearing her nightgown, which had come a little undone.

When Charles came closer and saw Noelle looking like that, his gaze deepened. Noelle saw him looking and quickly pulled the covers up, blushing and stuttering. "Y-you can't look!"

Charles could not help but laugh at her cute reaction. He gently patted her head and hugged her close. "Is my Nelly feeling shy now? That's not how you were acting last night!"
