“Goodness.”
Swiftly, he closed the door and coaxed Millie back into the embrace of slumber.
“Forget them. We’ll catch some more sleep.”
Millie, as she was drawn back into bed, glanced at her phone in disbelief. It was indeed noon, and the clock already showed eleven.
She softly prodded Marcus’s shoulder.
“It’s eleven already. We should get up.”
Tenderly, Marcus cradled Millie’s head against his chest.
“It’s alright. Let’s indulge in a bit more slumber. This bed is just too cozy.”
Truth be told, the comfort was undeniable. The sun streaming through the wooden window was warm and inviting, enveloping them in a cocoon of softness.

Millie rolled her eyes. Such audacity.
However, Mylo’s words did succeed in rousing Millie from her slumber.
“Darling, I’m getting up,” Millie declared, her cheeks flushed.
Marcus reached for his phone and dialed Mylo’s number.
“If I hear another word of nonsense, I’ll ensure the Barrett Group’s stock takes a nosedive tomorrow.”

His slender fingers caressed the tender curve of her waist, his plea evident.
Rest had eluded him for an extended period. Millie, understanding his need, reclined once more, finding solace in his loving embrace.
“Alright.”
Enveloped in the gentle embrace of the sun’s warmth, she closed her eyes and immersed herself in a wondrous, dreamlike world.
Beyond the cabin, a lively barbecue gathering was underway on the lawn.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
