Arthur cupped her face. He could feel how heated her face was.
She didn't look at him properly. Her mind had not yet come back. She was still in her dreamy land.
Arthur smiled and kissed her lips. Since he couldn't use magic to clean her off, he used his handkerchief and wiped her thighs clean.
"Hmm…" Veronica sighed. Her thighs trembled at his touch as more of her love juice mixed with his semen oozed out.
Arthur raised his head to see her face. He was ready to go another round if she was willing.
However, she was completely drained. The intoxicating sensation seemed to leave her in daze. No matter what she was feeling, she couldn't continue another round.
Realizing that she reached her limit, Arthur didn't pursue either.
He carefully wiped her clean and fixed her clothes.
By the time he was done, Veronica also came back to her senses. Maybe further touch when he wiped her had stimulated her senses.
She found strength coming back to her legs. As she stood without her husband's help, he observed her.
"Do you want to walk?" he asked. He was worried whether she could walk to the cave or not.
"I want to. I can walk." Veronica's voice was mellow like a kitten waking up from her dream.
Her voice left a significant amount of sensation in Arthur's heart. He could sense his dick hardening again.
Arthur frowned and decided not to think about it. The more he would think about it, the more torturous it would be.
Veronica took two steps with her quivering legs before stumbling on a rock.
"Ah!" she let out a yelp as she began to fall.
Arthur caught her in one arm before her back touched the ground. Then, he swept her off the ground and carried her like a princess.
"Umm… Is this okay? What if they wake up and see us?" Veronica was hesitant.
Arthur casually responded, "So what if they see a husband carrying his wife? Do you think they will kill us or eat us alive?"
"Won't they mock us?" she curiously asked.
"They might tease us. If you don't like it, just tell me. I'll deal with them." Arthur pecked on her cheek.
'How can I complain when you love being teased by your friends about this kind of thing?' Veronica helplessly pondered.
Arthur carried her to the cave and put her down on the bed.
Veronica covered herself with the blanket and closed her eyes.
The workout was too much for her. She fell asleep in no time.
The moon and the mountain range finally sighed in relief. They had too much education on human mating. They also needed rest for the night.
The next day, Veronica woke up at dawn. She was surprised because she didn't assume that after two rounds of sex, she would wake up early.
She opened her eyes and saw faint sunlight coming inside the cave.
Cracking sounds came from the woods others left in the fire. The fire was becoming feeble as no one added more wood.
When she presumed that her whole body would ache in throbbing pain, surprisingly she felt refreshed and energetic.
She wiggled under the blanket that looked exactly like a bug. She wanted to get up and do some exercise before she started the day.
However, her plan had to be changed when a strong arm circled around her waist and pulled her toward a muscled chest.
"Mm…" a low and yet deep groan came out from that man's throat. "Where are you trying to go?"
"Outside. It's been a while since I watched the sunrise."
Veronica didn't lie. She indeed wished to see the sunrise while doing exercise.
Ever since she stepped in Tybu, she was showered by workload. Then, she got married and after that, she was doing unspeakable things till morning leaving all the stars of the night sky embarrassed.
Therefore, she had no time to see the beautiful sunrise.
"How's your body? Can you move?" he asked.
Veronica nuzzled her nose on his chest. His bare chest made her cold face warm. She inhaled to smell his familiar fragrance.
"I'm feeling better. I think I can move."
"Don't bother. I'll take you."
Before she could oppose, Arthur carried her out while wrapping her with the blanket.
"What are you doing? You cannot take me like this!" Veronica hissed. She wanted to shout but didn't after thinking about the sleeping people around them.
"What if you catch a cold? I'm worried," Arthur replied.
Veronica was speechless.
'If you were that worried, why did you do 'that' last night?' She wished to complain but held back.
Wrapped like a cocoon, Veronica was placed on Arthur's lap. The two of them watched the sunrise together.
The atmosphere was serene. In the cold weather, warm sunlight touched their faces. It warmed up their hearts and gave them new strength to continue their journey.
"I decided to meet the Head Priest. Tomorrow at dawn," Veronica finally declared.
Arthur let out a helpless groan. "You won't stop no matter what I say, will you?"
Staring at the yellow sun, Veronica answered, "I made the mess, let me clean it up as much as I can. I can't chase the elves with my power. I'll leave it to you."
Arthur squeezed her securely in his arms. "Promise me you won't do anything reckless."
Veronica shook her head. "I won't. I won't take risks anymore. I already have enough burden to bear."
"Let me bear the burden with you."
Arthur hated it when she tried to do all the work by herself.
Veronica chuckled. "You are already doing that."
-------------
After discussing with Arthur, Veronica disclosed her plan to the other three while having breakfast.
"So, I want to bring someone with me who will be quiet and move swiftly like Dastan. I won't ask for you to fly in the sky like him but at least something similar."
Veronica looked at them one by one.
Darius was busy savoring his meal.
Zinnia was deeply thinking about something.
Ironin kept his head low and ate quietly.
Veronica was surprised and frustrated by their behavior. "Anybody listening?"
