“You don’t know by now that I want to possess every bit of you?”

“I’m learning.” Emotion laced her voice. “I love you, Lei.”

I held her gaze. “I love you more.”

She was so fucking beautiful, even in uncertainty, her dark brown eyes wide and radiant. But beneath that beauty, there was a strength that grounded her. It was that inner resilience that had drawn me to her in the first place.

She rested her head back against my chest. “Well, at least we know one thing.”

“What’s that?”

“You’ll easily win T.T. over with your Crownsville Bandit information.”

“I can do more than that. I’ll give her all those stupid wooden daggers the bandit made me dig up.”

“Oh God.” Moni yawned and closed her eyes. “She’ll be your best friend forever after that.”

“Good.”

That’s what I want.

After a while, silence came and I wondered what Moni was thinking, because plans of our future were littering my mind.

More quiet minutes passed and soon, Moni's soft breath against my chest turned steady.

It sounded like she had drifted off to sleep.

I felt the rise and fall of her chest in sync with my own breathing.

I curved my lips into a smile.

I didn’t do a bad job. She owned me with that ass, but. . .I owned her too. My cock put her to sleep.

Happy with myself, I closed my eyes and tried to get in a little nap too.

But my mind wouldn't rest.

The cookout was soon and I would be meeting her sisters. Everything had to be perfect. I needed to make sure that Moni wouldalwaysbe by my side.

I thought about all the things that she had told me and an idea came.

I know what I need to do.

Slowly, carefully, I began to shift, doing my best to not wake Moni.

When I lay her tenderly onto her back, her fingers clung to my shoulders for a moment, but then relaxed, as she began to sink deeper into sleep.

All mine.

Slowly, I slipped out of bed, pulled on my pants, and quietly left the room.

To my surprise, four guards stood outside my door. Surely, they had heard quite a lot of our lovemaking earlier.

I quietly shut the door and called one of them over. “Where’s Chen?”

“He’s swimming with the others.”

“Too bad.” I headed down the stairs. “He’s got a lot to do before the cookout.”
