29 A Little Sleep

The next day, it was the duke who woke up first. He woke up as usual early and saw the man in his arms still sleeping peacefully. He slowly got up, not disturbing his sleep and stretched out.

'It feels good. Agh… My legs kind of throb. Must be because of continued exercise yesterday..."

The duke punched his thighs and stretched out once again, turning to Asher. He didn't seem too bothered by the disappearance of the hands around him. He slept soundly, looking very peaceful.

But his eyes had kind of swelled, maybe because he cried. However, during the whole process, the duke didn't let their lips touch as he thought it would be unfair for Asher. He had heard people cherish their first kiss.

He doesn't know if Asher already had his first kiss. But he randomly guessed he hadn't. So he didn't want to make Asher lose his first kiss for some deal they had sex to help each other.
