Morning came and Veronica woke up early.
Rawlf was already out, probably having his morning coffee so Veronica decided to go downstairs.
True to her assumption, her man was in the living area, sipping from his coffee, while reading the early newspaper.
Rawlf sensing her arrival looked up and his stoic face turned soft after seeing his woman, who just woked up, wearing her silk white robe and thankfully, house slippers on her feet.
He move to walk to her and when she's at the very base of the stairs where he waited, Rawlf took her in his arms, nuzzled her hair for some moment then gently lifted and carry her, the bridal way to the sofa with him.
The tightening sensation in his chest earlier urged him to carry his woman after seeing her which proved his formula that everytime he would do something about it like carry her or hold her in his arms or to kiss her, the tightening in his chest will then soon eased up.
"Why did you wake up so early?" Rawlf asked in a gentle voice. If this was him some few months ago and someone told him that he'll one day be this pampering and gentle to a woman, he might have that person be tortured for cursing his life.
Yet, look at him now, spoiling Veronica like she's a disabled for the constant "carrying her" and totally under her spell.
Veronica rubbed her nose on his chest inhaling his familiar scent which she'd grown to love even more, "Have to prepare for later. Besides, I've had enough sleep."
"Do you want to eat your breakfast now?"
Veronica shook her head from left to right. It's too early for breakfast and she would rather have some coffee first to awaken all her senses.
"Not yet. But I would like a coffee. Dark and sweet." Veronica once again rubbed her nose on the man's chest and added in a spoilt tone, "and cuddles in the sofa."
Rawlf rubbed his woman's gently and called Butler Ro to tasked what their mistress asked for, of course, except the cuddles.
Butler Ro turned to the kitchen to make the coffee for the mistress, and at the same time, an indescribable expression in his face after once again seeing his cold and stoic young master having the most gentle and pampering expression for the woman in his arms.
After half an hour of cuddlin in the sofa, which made the passing maids blushed and retract their gazes from the young master and the new mistress to do their own chores around the mansion, Veronica decided to have her breakfast and of course, Rawlf joined his woman.
Rawlf then, with hesitation, bid his bye as he was to go in his office but not forgetting to give Veronica his prestigious centurion card.
