You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1994

Chapter 1994: Did it end?

Night.

After Anderson and Alisha went back to their room to sleep, and settled in, finally free after a busy day.

Joyce and Luther went to the nursery to check on Wilson and Cullen again.

Wilson and Cullen may have been a little tired from playing during the day, and were both soundly asleep now. Their small bodies rose and fell with each breath, their rosy faces especially tender.

Luther kissed each of them on the cheek.

Then he and Joyce quietly left the room and closed the door.

With four children in the house, tending to each of them was indeed exhausting.

After bathing, Joyce lay on the big bed, not wanting to move.

Luther came out after his shower and saw Joyce lying on the bed, her hair not yet dry. He turned back to the bathroom, brought a towel, and sat on the edge of the bed. "Your hair isn't dry yet, why haven't you blow-dried it?"

"I don't feel like it." Joyce reached out and wrapped her arms around his waist. "Can we just go to bed early?"

Luther pulled her up. "It's okay if you don't feel like it, I'll help you dry it."

With that, he had her lean against him.

Using the towel to gently dry her hair, and finally smoothing it for her, "Okay, wet hair can cause headaches, especially when you wake up the next day."

"Who told you that? I never blow-dried my hair before sleeping and never had a headache. Don't believe these so-called expert opinions." Joyce rolled her eyes. "You've been getting more and more loquacious lately, with all these random rules. You're getting on my nerves, and I'm starting to be rebellious. If you keep watching me like this, you'll have to sleep in another room."

"Okay, I won't say anything." Luther chuckled softly, unable to do anything about her. It turns out she is also this willful, truly adorable. Sleeping in separate rooms was absolutely not an option. He wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully without her in his arms.

Taking off his outerwear, Luther pulled Joyce into bed with him.

"With everyone coming and going today, I know you're tired, get some rest early." He caressed her long hair, softly twirling his fingers, and touched her smooth arms, a touch so delightful.

"It's actually not bad, I just felt a bit drowsy for a while. I'm feeling better now." Joyce nestled in his arms. "Your mother seems to have changed a lot, her whole demeanor is completely different."
