Chapter 372 - 369: Honeymoon VI (2/2)
”You don't sound so happy about that.”
”Privilege comes with a price.”
Serena smiled as she shook her head. ”Tomorrow, when we return to Windsor, we would need to join your family for dinner in the royal palace, right?”
”Yes, don't worry much about it. We won't have to stay for too long.”
”I never said I disliked it.” Serena defended.
”You don't have to say the words for me to know. Now sleep, my princess. We have a long day tomorrow.” Geoffrey said as he kissed her forehead.
Serena smiled as she snuggled closer to him. She did like it whenever he called her by that pet name. ”Good night, my prince. I love you.” She whispered, feeling the term of endearment funny from her own mouth.
Geoffrey shifted their position so that he was on top of her. Sleep now lost to him. ”You're just asking for it, aren't you?” He asked as he started kissing her neck, and body, tickling her.
Serena laughed. Well, she didn't really mean to, but it's not a bad idea to do this one more time before they leave for their new home tomorrow.

It was Sunday, and it's the day of their return to Windsor. There was nothing much to prepare on their travel back. All they had to do was get in the car, and everything else were taken care of by the servants.
Now, unlike their mode of transportation on the way to Wiltshire, going back to Windsor, they would just ride the car till they reach their new home. The Kensington house which was the royal residence of the crown prince once he gets married.
The travel was longer at 5 hours, but it was also more convenient without the need to move about and catching too much attention. The travel was pleasant despite it being long.
When they arrived just outside of their new home, it was already 3 in the afternoon. Serena who was only able to see the Kensington house at the passing took the time to appreciate its exterior from inside the car. In contrast to its name, where attached was the word house, it was larger than their ducal mansion. What did she expect? How could the crown prince's residence be any less stellar than that of a duke?
Anyway, the footman opened the door of the car. Geoffrey went down first, then he turned back to help Serena.
Serena placed her hand in Geoffrey's. Her dainty foot was about to step out from the car, but her foot only touched air. Geoffrey has again lifted her for a bridal carry.
”Geoffrey!” She exclaimed in surprise.
”We're entering the threshold of our new home, it is imperative that I carry you, my wife, inside.” He announced as he chuckled.
Serena laughed happily as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Really, Geoffrey was too sweet at times.
All the servants who have been standing there waiting for their arrival which has been delayed for 2 hours, could not help their lips from tilting upwards.
