Chapter 325
"You are really planning to leave me. After I have travelled so far to be with my wife," Killian said, pulling on her dress to get her to stay in bed.
"You snap your fingers and appear where your heart desires. It was not difficult for you to get back here. I spent plenty of time in bed with you and after some thought, I have decided to spend the rest of the night with Lilith, Edith, and Gina. I don’t want to back out now that my husband is here," Amelia said as she put on her shoes.
Gina wasn’t here to help her and she would rather not call Gina from wherever she was to help with getting dressed. It was something she could do on her own.
"I will have to wear a night dress to cover my neck because of what you did. They will look at me like I am crazy for wearing it in such hot weather. I shouldn’t have listened to you. I should have known you were marking my skin so I wouldn’t want to leave, but the joke’s on you," Amelia said, pulling her dress out of his hand to get away from him.
Killian rolled on his back to look at her as she continued to prepare herself to sleep in another room with the others. "You would think that with your husband spending all of daylight away from you, they would be understanding and let you stay here," he said.
"They are understanding which is why they have not come knocking at our door-"
"You are finally calling it our bedroom more often now," Killian noted.
"Well, though we have been married for a while this has always been my bedroom so I think of it as mine. I’m getting used to you being in it just as much as me. We can have a bigger room if you like. You will have to bring some things here for the days we will spend in this castle. It is not big for the two of us," Amelia said, looking around the room that was big enough for her, but not the two of them.
Even after she had sent most of her things to the north, she returned with a bit of luggage that took up a lot of space in her closet and around the room. Killian had mostly brought clothes and she had no idea where he was keeping his weapons. His room in the north was much bigger compared to the two.
"Fraser had started to go over my father’s tower which is much bigger than my room, but I do not want to stay there. It will feel weird because of all the women he had there. There are some rooms we could knock down walls and make bigger. I will turn this bedroom into a room for me to get away," Amelia decided.
"Get away from what?" Killian asked, enjoying the sight of her lifting her hair to tie it.
