Chapter 457: Grievances.

Forget about not being able to sleep for the night. The couple ended up sleeping into the next day. When Jen woke up from her 'nap' she thought that she only had to make dinner before she collected on Lucas's promise. She did not expect that the two of them would end up spending the whole day doing nothing but eating and sleeping. Even she did not know what was going on.

Their positions did not change much, but Lucas was still resting his body weight on her so she could not move as freely as she could before. She picked up her phone to check the time and saw that it was a little past 8 am. Jen sighed as she looked at the time before she looked down at Lucas was still holding on to her.

She put her hand against his forehead and noticed that his temperature was back to normal. Only then could she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Lucas," she called him as her fingers brushed back his hair as stroked his cheeks. She wanted to get out of bed, and as much as she did not want to wake him up, he was holding her too tight that she could not help but just wake him up so that he could release her.

"You said you would tire me out," Jen added suggestively, and she felt his hands wander. She called him so nicely and did not respond, but he could easily respond to her suggestive words? She asked herself as she looked at his sleeping figure in disbelief.

"Mmmh," Lucas responded and pressed her down against the bed. He looked at her with his sleepy eyes and Jen could feel her heart race. She asked herself if it was okay to marry such a good-looking person. If Alex heard of her concerns, she would have probably beaten her. Her mother would have probably knocked her head. 

Of course, it was alright. She was born in a family of face cons, her mother loved her father's handsome appearance and as if it was an inherited trait, all three of them were very particular in their tastes in partners. 

"I have to go out early today to get ready for the party," Jen said as she looked up at his handsome face. His drowsy appearance made her subconsciously lick her lips. She also wanted to push him down right now, but in two hours someone was going to come and pick her up.

"Mmmh, since you woke me up, give me a good morning kiss," Lucas said with a lazy smile. Jen looked at the dimples that were faintly visible and swallowed hard.

"Will you stop at a good morning kiss?" Jen asked him and he chuckled in amusement. He was planning on stopping at a kiss, but now he felt like he should do more since she was expecting it.

"Mmmh," he answered, but continue to kiss on her neck. Jen was not planning on doing it with him since he had been sick, but his actions still ended up arousing her more than she expecting. 

"You need to stop, I have to leave with the girls soon," Jen said as she tried to convince Lucas to release her, but her efforts were for nought as he ended up doing whatever he wanted anyway.

"How can I just let you go?" Lucas asked her as his tongue traced her delicate collarbone. As much as Jen wanted to let things go, the difficulty seemed to have risen because of their actions.

"Just don't leave any mark on me, the dress will be revealing," Jen said once she realised that she wanted to do this as much as Lucas wanted to. Once he got the clearance to do whatever he wanted, Lucas did not hold back and hotly pursued Jen. 

Lucas pressed his hardness between her legs as he licked the side of her neck as he tried not to succumb to the temptation of leaving marks on her.

"Lucas," Jen gasped out his name as his fingers toyed with her bare flesh. He wanted to hold back, but as the seconds ticked by, he found that it became even harder to hold back. 

"We'll finish this later," Lucas said and forcefully detached himself from her. On a normal day, he would not have let her off so easily. He would proceed with his actions even at the risk of being late to work, so this was new.

Jen lamented internally but also knew that she had to leave by 10 am, so she reluctantly got off the bed even though she was still unfulfilled and went to the bathroom. 

She complained about how he could just feel her up as he wished and withdraw as he wished without at least satisfying her. With a disappointed sigh, she got in the shower and had a cold shower. Lucas was also trying to calm himself down after putting himself through that. 

After not being with his girlfriend for almost a month, and just having a taste of her once, he still wanted to do her a few more times. But he knew if he started, he would not be satisfied with doing it once, and she would end up being late because of him. So he could only hold himself back.

Rather than roll around in bed and waste time, he got off the bed and went downstairs to the kitchen after brushing his teeth and washing his face in the other room. 

Jen didn't take too long in the bathroom and was out after twenty minutes. She walked into the empty bedroom and figured that Lucas either went to freshen up in the other room or went to make breakfast, so she just went to the walk-in closet to get dressed.

She put on a short dress with a flared skirt and tied her hair up in a messy bun since she was going to have it done later and put on some light makeup. When she walked out of the closet, she went to arrange the bed before leaving the room and went downstairs. 

Lucas did not make too much, so when she arrived he was already waiting for her to join him as he drank a cup of coffee. Rather than sit opposite from him, she went to sit down next to him and looked at him while resting her chin on her hands.

"What is it?" Lucas asked when he noticed she was not eating and looking at him instead.

"Don't get sick again, what if this happened while you were not home?" Jen asked as she pushed away his fringe from his face.

"I'll take care of myself," Lucas said guiltily. He had neglected his health over the past few weeks so he could make time to come back home.

"Don't strain yourself too much," Jen said as her fingers lightly stroked the sides of his face. 

"Mmmh," he answered as he focused his gaze on her.

Jen was satisfied when she heard him agree with her and put food on both of their plates and urged him to eat before eating herself.

"You should also wear clothes around the house, it's no wonder you were feverish," Jen said and blatantly stared at his pectoral muscles. Lucas looked down at his bare chest before looking at Jen who looked like she was about to swallow him whole.

"I'll wear more in the future," he joked, and Jen silently drank her tea. She did not really want him to cover up.
