The Duke's Masked Wife

"Edgar, it is your birthday but that does not mean you cannot lift a finger. You can feed yourself," Alessandra said, placing the fork in her mouth instead of feeding Edgar.

"After I carried you all the way to our room this is how you treat me?" Edgar retorted.

"I would have been more inclined to feed you if you had not suggested we have sex on the stairs. It was quite uncomfortable and I am certain my back will forever be in pain," Alessandra said, touching the spot which was sore because of where she was pushed back against the stairs. "Never again."

Edgar nodded his head agreeing with her. As exciting as it was, it was only a one-time thing. "You were so vocal about not doing it by the window but quiet about the stairs. Admit it that you were curious about what it would be like."

"I was," Alessandra had no issue admitting this. "I am just saying it will never happen again and because I am sore from it and other things, you must feed yourself. In fact, it couldn't hurt for you to feed me."

"All you had to do was ask nicely," Edgar said, taking the fork from her hands to feed her. The whole point of them coming back to the room was for her to eat. He wasn't the slightest bit hungry as yet.

"A part of me thinks you don't mind feeding me so I can finish eating quickly and get back to what we were doing. I need a moment to rest Edgar," Alessandra replied. He forgot that they did not share the same amount of stamina. This was already more than how much they made love on their first night.

"I know you do. I don't plan to overdo it when the day has just begun. Eat and rest for a moment if you wish," Edgar said, placing the fork down while she chewed.

He sat back in the chair he placed beside the bed. His abdomen was still exposed since they had not gotten dressed.

Alessandra coughed after almost choking on her food. She knew Edgar was showing off his abs on purpose and like a fool, she was falling for it. How could she not when he was so desirable? One of the things she enjoyed about him was his muscular body and it seemed he knew. She remembered a phrase Sally used about a shirtless guard she saw that anyone would be able to wash clothes against their chest.

Alessandra continued to watch Edgar stretch his arms, twisting and turning to show off his body. It didn't help that his member was casually exposed because Edgar was comfortable enough to sit naked while she had covered her body with a blanket.

"You are eyeing me like I am a piece of meat and you are a starved woman," Edgar mused, knowing his plot had worked. He had to pity men with out-of-shape bodies or who had no sex appeal who couldn't easily get their wives riled up.

"Technically you are a piece of meat. Stop what you are doing Edgar. It is tempting but I need to rest even if it is for a few minutes. You can finally take your bath without me interrupting you. What are you doing?" Alessandra asked after Edgar stood from his seat and came to where she was laying sideways on the bed.

"Letting you rest but I can love you without penetrating you," he said, moving to hover over her but he kept his weight from crushing her.

"You truly are a horny beast," Alessandra commented, rolling on her side to look up at him. She didn't mind the two of them being this close to each other.  "I am starting to believe that Alfred was not lying about you bringing women here."

"Why must you bring that up now?" Edgar asked, fearing an argument might start from jealousy.

"Do not worry. I am not upset by it," she caressed his face. "You are charming and those women do not matter now that you are mine. Just as you are greedy so am I. You must not forget that you belong to only me."

Edgar held her hand and kissed the back of it. "Of course," he replied. "My mind, body, and soul all belong to you. I expect the same from you."

"You never have to worry about my love for you going to anyone else. As you said, there is no other man like you in this world. I honestly should not feed your ego but it is true.  Edgar, tell me honestly. If the incident with my face never happened and we met another way, do you think we would have fallen in love?" Alessandra asked, curious about his answer.

"I do not know. There is no telling if you would have turned out to be spoiled and annoying like all the other women I detest," Edgar gave an honest answer.

It was unfortunate she got hurt which started her desire to run away from home and then ultimately start a contract with him but he couldn't wish for history to be changed in case they would have never come to be as they were now. It was hard to imagine his life without seeing her daily.

"I don't think I would have been spoiled. I was really depressed being my father's favorite and faked smiles around his peers. I don't think that would have changed and I might have thought of running away. I truly believe that if we are meant to be together we would be no matter how we met. I would not be truly happy if you were not in my life," Alessandra confessed.

"You have become skilled in complimenting me."

"I listen to you complimenting yourself numerous times to know how it should be done. I changed my mind, Edgar. I do not need to rest anymore," Alessandra said. Thinking of how much she loved him and how happy she was with him made her want to be closer than they were now.

"Are you certain?" Edgar asked before making a move. He considered that she would be a bit sore from having sex back to back and they did not share the same energy.

Alessandra smiled, loving how he was always a gentleman even at this moment when he would love nothing more than to continue being intimate. "I am," she wrapped her hands around his neck to pull him down to her.

Alessandra could feel how erect he quickly became as his member brushed against her inner thigh. She didn't know how she would pull this off but she would gladly remain this close to him for the rest of the day or perhaps forever.

Edgar eagerly leaned down to kiss her once again. No matter how many times they kissed, it did not make him tired of it. He could kiss her fifty times in one day but it would still not be enough. Edgar rubbed his member along her slit walls, earning a muffled moan from Alessandra against his lips even though he had not penetrated her yet. He too was excited to enter her once more.

Tangled up in each other in a heated kiss, they both forgot they were still at the edge of the bed and ended up rolling off to the side. Edgar quickly pulled Alessandra against him and took the brunt of the fall. He laid on his back on the floor while Alessandra sat on top of him.

Alessandra was shocked at first that they had fallen off the bed but as the shock passed she started to laugh and Edgar joined her. The fall did nothing to ruin the moment as Alessandra didn't mind continuing with this new position of her on top of Edgar. She quite liked the view she had to see how he would react when she rode him.

"Leave it to me," she said.
