SPELLBOUND

e of hours ago! ” Evie spluttered in protest as she pouted her cherry red lips.

”There is still plenty of time for you to rest.
And this might be the only time for you to rest right now.
I can ’t risk you falling asleep in the middle of the battlefield. ”

”I would never – ”

”I know dear wife.
So, if you want me not to take back my word, you must listen to me. ”

Evie nibbled the inside of her lips and then pouted.
”But even if you tell me to go to sleep, it would be useless if I really couldn ’t fall asleep at – ”

”Alright, I ’ll go with you.
I know a quick way to put you to sleep. ” He said as he scooped her in his arms.

”H-huh? ” Evie did not know why but her mind suddenly thought about them being intimate again and she blushed.
However, knowing this husband of hers, he might really be thinking of that way to put her to sleep! ”G-gav… wait.
I don ’t think doing it will give me any rest – ”

”Doing it? ” Gavriel tilted his head and when he looked down and saw Evie ’s blushing face, an evil smirk flashed on his face.
”What ’s this wife… are you actually thinking that I ’m going to make love to you again? ” He then waggled his brows suggestively at her, earning himself a small slap from Evie on his arm.

Evie flushed even more.
What? Was she wrong?

Gavriel chuckled.
His pleasant laughter sounded so good to her ears as he leaped from the watchtower.

When they reached their quarters inside the walls, Gavriel put Evie down and pinned her against the wall.
”I am so pleased that you ’re actually wanting us to make love again – ”

”I – ” Gavriel kissed her lips but before it would escalate to the point of no return, he pulled away and smirked.

”But I am not thinking about doing it again, my love.
That was not the plan.
It will only serve to exhaust you if we go for another round.
That wouldn ’t be resting anymore.
What I ’m telling you is the tea that would make you fall asleep quickly.
It ’s a relaxing tea and its harmless to vampires and humans alike.
So be rest assured it won ’t keep you asleep for more than what ’s necessary. ” He said in a mischievous tone and Evie was about to hide her face in her palms when Gavriel caught her wrists and kissed her forehead.
”You made me really happy though. ” He smiled and Evie thought that his smile that moment was the most beautiful she had ever seen.
And she could only look at him in a daze.
She thought to herself that if it were possible, how nice it would be to immortalise that beautiful smile in a picture.
So that whenever she wanted to, she could just take it out and look at it.

After Gavriel made her sip a little amount of that special tea brew, Evie leaned her head on his shoulder.

”How about you? You should rest too, before they arrive. ” Evie said, as she continued sipping on the delicious tea that Gavriel had prepared for her.
Between drinking the tea and chatting with Gavriel, it did not even take a few minutes before she was feeling the effects of the tea and her head was already dizzy.

”I will rest too, my love.
Don ’t worry, ” he whispered as he saw her eyelids fluttering and he knew that the tea was working its magic on his wife.
He smiled at her indulgently before tucking her into bed and under the covers.

Upon leaving Evie ’s room, Gavriel decided to seek Zolan out to discuss more on things.
After walking for some minutes, he spotted Zolan who was busying himself at the wall, he leapt and landed behind the man.

Zolan was currently busy simulating their battle plan in his mind as he looked at the empty and dark meadow when he felt Gavriel ’s presence.
He glanced back and upon seeing the look in his prince ’s eyes, he sighed deeply to himself.
He already felt that he should prepare himself for what the prince was going to say.
Because it was obvious to him that Gavriel was here to discuss with him on certain vital matters that he was sure is somehow going to change the plan.
