Daphne's POV

A tiny smile laid at the edge of my lips as I snuggled into his arms. His woodsy scent wrapped around me, and oddly it soothed my nerves.

With eyes flickering open, I questioned. “You are off to work?” He had his hands around his wrist, fixing his sleeves properly.

Propping myself up, my face beamed when he kissed me on my head, ruffling my head.“ I am off, be a good girl, okay?”

I let out an exasperated sigh because when exactly was I not one? “ You know that I have always been a good girl, don't you?”

With a shrug, he gave me a brief smile before trying to walk again when it dawned on me that I hadn't asked for Tessa to be relieved yet.

Fixing the robe properly around me, I leaned against the door, watching him for a while before I called out. “ Lorenzo”

His steps came to a stop, as he flipped his head at me.

“ Can you tell Tessa not to come in today? I will be at home all day and the kids would be at Drago's, so I wouldn't have to worry about anything” I hope that
