Lust Contracts 18+ Hunting for Love with My Three Contract Husbands

172 Lazy Love

“Are you starting to feel sleepy?” he asked softly.

“Yes…” I admitted honestly.

My eyelids had started to feel heavy, and it felt like I could drift off into sleep at any moment. I guessed I never knew how much I liked before held and embraced tenderly like this before going to bed.

“Good night, Elena. I hope you sleep well without any dreams…” he whispered gently into my ear.

“Good night…” I murmured.

…

The following morning, I woke up in a very shocked and disorientated state. My eyelids felt heavy from sleep but what felt unusually heavy was the sensation of something pressing on top of my chest. My body felt heavy and felt extremely lazy and without a doubt, I wasn’t looking forward to the new day. That was the reason why it took that much more extra effort for me to slowly open my eyes. The empty familiar ceiling of my bedroom greeted me. Everything seemed normal until I lifted my head a little off the pillow and glanced down at the source of discomfort on my chest.

At first, I wasn’t sure if I was just seeing things or not and my brain did not immediately register the fact that there apparently seemed to be an arm draped over my chest. I blinked a few times to clear my mind and to see if that unfamiliar sight would slowly dissolve into nothing more than an illusion. No such correction of the reality that I saw in front of me happened. I turned to come face to face with the sleeping face of a very attractive angel.

EROS…

.....

Memories of last night came flooding back to me like large unstoppable tsunami waves. Starting from my memory of running into him in front of my building when I got home. Then how he hugged and comforted me. His stubborn words as he refused to go back home and how he finally convinced me to let him stay the night. EROS was still sleeping silently and peacefully. His breathing was regular which told me that he was still enjoying his slumber. My heart clenched strangely in my chest at the sight of him sleeping so peacefully close to me on my bed.

I took in a deep breath before letting it out in a relieved sigh when I realized that it seemed like EROS had kept his word and all we did was sleep together on the same bed last night. His beautiful and peaceful sleeping face never failed to amaze me. I spent a moment in silence just admiring his handsome features from his nose, and his cheekbones, to his long blond eyelashes. For a fleeting moment, I thought to myself how nice it would be if he would never wake up. His character really was something complex and I felt like he was so much easier for me to deal with when he was sleeping in bed like an innocent and harmless baby.

My wish was no to be and soon enough EROS’s eyelashes started to flutter. I watched as he stirred in bed next to me until his mesmerizing golden eyes flickered open. He seemed disorientated for a very brief moment before his eyes focused on my face. His lips slowly curved into a lazy smile as his arms moved to gather my body into his embrace and pull me closer to him.

“Good morning…Elena…” he whispered while still sounding sleepy.

“Good morning…” I whispered back without knowing what else to say.

A slight tremor ran through my body at the strangeness of waking up in bed with EROS and greeting each other with a lazy ‘good morning’. It just felt so out of place and so unreal that I had a hard time believing that something like this was happening between us. EROS seemed relaxed as his hand instinctively began stroking my hair as he held me close. Getting out of bed didn’t seem to be something that was on his mind at that moment.

“Don’t you have to go to work today?” I asked softly after spending a while in his arms.

“Nope. Actually, I don’t know…whatever…” he mumbled lazily.

Does that mean that he just doesn’t care?

“No, you can’t do that. You have to go to work if you have work scheduled. If you don’t, you’re going to cause so much trouble to like…hundreds of people…” I quickly countered as I struggled to disengage his arms from around my body.

“I have the day off today…don’t worry…” he replied lazily.

“Really? Are you sure?” I asked while finding it hard to believe him.

“Yes…I’m sure…” he replied followed by a small chuckle.

He should have just told that to me right away. Why did he have to make me worry?

The way he held me told me that he wanted to stay in bed at least for a while longer. Surprisingly, I did not mind spending time locked up in his gentle embrace either; however, it was clear that we couldn’t spend the whole day together in bed this way. EROS was awake and didn’t show any signs of going back to sleep although he was still hesitant to get out of bed.

“Are you hungry?” I asked softly.

“No…” he replied immediately.

“Well, you can’t spend the whole day in my bed so…” I said before trying to pull his arms away from my body again.

EROS only held me tighter in his embrace before he buried his face in the side of my neck and started kissing the sensitive skin there. I heard myself letting out a soft moan which only prompted EROS to kiss and suck on my skin a little rougher than before. I heard his rapid intake of breath as he began inhaling my scent.

“EROS…” I murmured his name with a hint of warning in my tone.

“I know…no sex…” he murmured.

Despite what he seemed to understand, he did not stop kissing my neck right away. By the time he lifted his head from my neck, my heart was racing wildly in my chest, and I knew that my face was flushed.
