The next morning, Ella was awakened by the soft kisses that were being peppered on her neck.
She rubbed her eyes, and opened them slowly.
Adrian placed a soft kiss on her neck, trailing his lips to his chin before he tilted his head slightly.
As their gazes met, Ella beamed, "Good morning!"
Adrian leaned in, placing a lingering kiss on both her eyes.
As her eyelashes fluttered, she heard him whisper, "A very good morning."
Ella's eyes twinkled.
Last night, after they made it out of the ball, Ella was hugged and kissed by Adrian in the backseat of the car.
After a while, she laid her head on his lap. But unknowingly, she dozed off. Ella did not even realize when they returned to the mansion and how she got into the bed.
It was already past midnight when Adrian stirred her awake and personally fed her a bowl of soup. Ella had it in her half-asleep state before dozing off completely again.
