Chapter 100 - Sweet Dreams My Love (2/2)

”Okay.” Adam replied with a poker face as he shifted to his side, lying down on the bed.

As soon as he moved away from her, Stella began to miss his warmth. She moved closer to him, turning around so that she was lying on her stomach now.

”Adam?” She called his name softly.

”What?” He replied to her, grumpily.

”Are you mad at me?” She asked him.

”Why would I be mad at you? How can I do that? You can do as you please.” He replied without looking at her. His eyes were focused somewhere in the distance.

Heaving a frustrated sigh, Stella rolled her eyes at the grumpy man next to her.

”Alright, alright! I will ask Uncle Rob myself to shift my things to your room in the morning. Happy now?” She spoke up with a sweet voice. Her lips were curled up in a faint smile which could hardly be detected, her slightly widened eyes were on his face as she looked at him intently.

”Very much.” He replied as his lips broke into a smile, showing off his perfectly aligned and white teeth. He opened his arms for her to jump into them.

Stella snuggled against her own personalized giant teddy bear and closed her eyes.

”Good night Adam.” She murmured softly against his chest.

”Good night sweetheart.” He replied as one of his hands slowly rubbed her back while the other one was holding her in place.

When he heard her even breathing after a while, he shifted her position to a more comfortable one but made sure that her head was still resting on his shoulder. He pulled up the duvet up such that it was covering both of them.

He placed a lingering kiss on her forehead.

”I won't let anyone harm you my angel.” He murmured softly against her forehead. ”Sweet dreams my love.”

He closed his eyes off and drifted off to his dreamland.
