"Don't you think you should start calling me Leanna?" she laughed.
"Leanna," he said in a low sexy voice that made her feel tingly all over, "I will only share your bed if you desire it"
Batting her eye lashes and giving him a coy glance upward she said, "I only asked if you were going to sleep in my room Ash." Smiling sweetly she felt a sudden burst of happiness, in spite of everything. Ash took her hand and gave it a squeeze before pulling it to his mouth to kiss her slender fingers.
"Whatever you wish, for tonight. Tomorrow we have an announcement and coronation to plan."
Ash leaned down to kiss Leanna's waiting lips, the heat of their kiss sending shivers through them both as they wrapped their arms around one another, tongues mingling in a wet bliss. Leanna broke from the kiss, looking up at Ash "I know you're the first and only man I've ever kissed, but is it always this...incredible?"
Ash shook his head "No, only with you...I'm happy you saved your kisses for me. Even if you didn't know you were," he smiled and leaned in to give her a peck on her lips. "Leanna" his voice was huskier than usual and filled with passion.
"Mm?" Leanna looked up to see Ash frowning slightly.
"I've loved you from the moment I met you. I'm sorry I left you alone tonight, I'm sorry about Girvyn. I will never leave you again." He held her tightly, his chin resting just on top of her head as she breathed against his chest.
"It's okay Ash. He didn't hurt me and now that everything is out in the open, we can figure out what to do next." She leaned away from Ash and looked up at him. "I wasn't afraid tonight, because I knew you were there. I trust you and I love you and I want to spend everyday of my life showing you just how much."
