The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 2067

Fresh from her shower, Arabella's scent was a breath of spring, her soft cheeks begging for another kiss.

"Don't mind his ramblings," Arabella said with a light chuckle. "It's not as bad as he makes it out to be."

"I know you're hurting," Romeo murmured, holding her close. "How are you feeling now? Any dizziness? Any pain?"

"It's all gone."

"Murphy's girl, the one you mentioned, is locked up at the station."

"Mhm." Arabella glanced at him. "There are some clothes for you in the walk-in. Go take a shower, get some rest."

"I'm not tired," Romeo whispered, caressing her face.

"You still need to rest." Arabella led him to the walk-in wardrobe, where she kept a cabinet full of clothes she had sewn for him when she had spare time, using nothing but fabric and a small sewing machine.

She handed him a set of cozy loungewear.

Romeo was touched and surprised to find she had secretly made so many garments for him. "Can I take all of these with me when I leave later?"

"Some aren't finished yet," Arabella replied with a soft smile. "But you can take the completed ones."

Romeo leaned down, pressing his lips to hers, lingering as if he couldn't get enough. These clothes were proof of her affection for him.

"Go on, take a hot shower," she urged.

After his shower, Arabella had breakfast ready. They ate together before she let him rest in the adjacent room.

"Stay with me for a bit," Romeo said, pulling her into bed and drawing the covers over them. "I sleep better with you by my side."
