Ethan's fingers closed around the soft, supple flesh of Evelyn's bottom, his grip firm enough to draw a sweet sigh from her lips.
"Mmm~~ ah~ why didn't you tell us you'd found another woman?"
"Because you were meditating, remember? You two left your husband to endure so many cold nights…" he teased, though his expression quickly turned serious.
He leaned over Evelyn, his lips finding hers in a kiss that was short but intense, his tongue pressing past hers.
When they parted, his lips curved into a soft smile.
"Her name is Elena, and she's going to be very important to Goldenveil's development. She has the same origin as you, so be kind to her, okay?"
Alice left Elena's arms after a moment, turning to her husband with a puzzled look.
"Why are you so serious?" she asked, tilting her beautiful face slightly to the side. "Did something happen?"
"A goblin attack is approaching Goldenveil." Ethan released Evelyn and pulled Alice into his arms instead, kissing her just the same.
