It was already late by the time they arrived home.
Donna had fallen asleep during the long journey back, so Alpha Kilian held onto her while Nelly chatted away with Tony and Ben . They looked exactly like how a warm, perfect family should be.
As soon as they walked in, Tony glanced around before turning to them. “It's getting late, Nelly , so we'll be going to sleep.”
“Okay.” Nelly nodded. It was late, indeed. “Good night, Nelly !” said Ben .
“Good night.”
After watching the boys return to their respective rooms, Alpha Kilian headed upstairs with Donna in his arms with Nelly following behind.
“Let her sleep in my room. I'll accompany her tonight,” Nelly offered the moment they arrived upstairs. She hadn't seen Donna for so long and truly missed her.
Yet, Alpha Kilian pondered for a moment before responding, “She hasn't had any proper sleep the whole
time, so why don't we let her sleep in her own room tonight?” With that, he walked into the room next to Tony 's.
Nelly didn't think much of it and followed him in, assuming he just wanted the best for Donna .
The little girl didn't even stir when being tucked into bed, although perhaps the hot weather had resulted in some hair being stuck to her cheeks. With her smooth skin and long eyelashes, she looked just like a porcelain doll.
Nelly smiled with contentment as she gazed at Donna .
She gently tucked the girl's hair behind her ear. Then, the latter rolled over and continued sleeping soundly.
She's just a little girl, but she keeps acting like an adult.
Alpha Kilian 's lips curled similarly as he adjusted his daughter's blanket before turning to Nelly . “Let's go.”
Nelly nodded and left reluctantly.
She turned to him after closing the door. “I can tell how happy they were today.” Alpha Kilian nodded in agreement.
“It's late, so I'll be hitting the sack too,” Nelly concluded. “Good night.” Alpha Kilian looked at her.
“Good night.” She grinned at him before turning and walking to her room. “Nelly !” Alpha Kilian suddenly called out to her.
She turned her head in puzzlement. “What is it?”
Alpha Kilian took two steps forward and gazed at her deeply, his eyes filled with affection and a faint sparkle that one might easily overlook. “What you said to me earlier tonight...”
“What?” Nelly raised an eyebrow.
He pursed his thin lips while continuing to stare at her for a brief moment of silence. “Whatever you told me, I'm going to take your word for it.”
“I meant exactly what I said in the first place,” Nelly replied as soon as his words fell.
Alpha Kilian froze as a wave of emotions swirled within his darkened gaze. “Do you know what I'm talking about, Nelly ? I'm referring to—”
“I know what you mean,” Nelly cut him off while glancing at him tenderly. “Didn't you keep asking me if I wanted to be with you? My answer is yes. I'm serious.”
A look of complication surfaced in Alpha Kilian 's narrowed eyes as a devilish aura emanated from his divinely handsome face.
“Really?” he asked in disbelief after a long pause.
“Yes.” She nodded. “Now that you're mine, you'd better work hard and earn lots of money.”
His eyes lit up with excitement, Alpha Kilian grabbed her by the hand and inched closer to her. “Did I hear you wrongly, Nelly ? Or did you have a bit too much to drink today?”
In response, Nelly let out a chuckle and eyed him mischievously. “Have your ears gone bad, Alpha Morris ? But you're still so young! Or are you saying you don't want to be mine?”
Alpha Kilian pinned her against the wall immediately, staring down at her. “Say that again, Nelly ,” he requested in a hoarse voice.
She blinked and slowly opened her mouth. “I said my answer is yes—mmph!”
Before she could even finish, Alpha Kilian pressed his lips against hers all of a sudden, and a passionate kiss ensued.
This time, though, she didn't push him away. Instead, she responded by slowly reaching for his waist. The two held onto each other in the hallway.
After God knows how long, Alpha Kilian dragged her in the direction of his room.
He then shut the door and continued to kiss her, his lips touching every inch of Nelly 's body like raindrops.
The woman closed her eyes. Perhaps due to the alcohol, there was an indescribable feeling surging
within her as Alpha Kilian touched her. Still, there was no denying that he was good. He made her feel at ease and left an unforgettable impression on her.
