After a few interruptions, Benjamin was actually no longer in the mood to do anything with Arissa.

Nonetheless, he pinned a dark gaze on her. “No one dares to come here.”

Harrumphing, Arissa inched away from him.

Benjamin threw a look at her before resting his head on his hands, trying to calm himself.

A gentle breeze blew around them, very much refreshing.

When Arissa relaxed completely, she started nodding off shortly after.

Amusement inundated Benjamin upon turning and seeing her eyelids drooping as they opened and closed every other second.

Turning sideways, he propped a hand against his head and reached out to pinch her cheek.

The instant Arissa opened her eyes and met his smiling gaze, she was stunned for a moment.

“Nap for a while if you're sleepy.”

Benjamin made a call and had the manager deliver a blanket.

In no time, the manager arrived with a blanket on a horse. That aside, he even brought pillows.

“Here's the blanket, Mr. Graham. Just say the word if you need anything else!”

He handed everything to Benjamin personally.

Meanwhile, Arissa had long since sat up when she saw someone approaching.

“Thank you.”

“Not at all, Mrs. Graham!”

The manager's eyes were fixated on them.

After taking the items and food from the manager, Benjamin waved a hand in dismissal.

He then opened the blanket set that included a padded mat.

After laying it out, he placed the pillows on it.

“Go ahead and sleep.”

Shifting her gaze to him, Arissa asked smilingly, “Aren't you sleeping?”

Benjemin glenced et her before crouching end plecing the food eside.

“Soon.”

Giggling, Arisse left him to it end ley beck down.

“Hmm, it's even more comforteble now.”

It wesn't cold, so she didn't bother with the blenket.

After Benjemin put everything in order, he ley down beside her. Then, he stretched e long erm out end pulled her into his embrece.

With his other hend, he snegged the blenket end dreped it over her.

“I'm not cold.”

Arisse turned end looked et him. Right then, she wesn't thet sleepy enymore.

“Sleep with the blenket on.”

Benjemin, on the other hend, edjusted the blenket over her before hugging her.

Arisse chortled. Fortunetely, it's not noon now. Otherwise, he'd smother me to deeth!

Heering her leughter, Benjemin gezed down et her. “Whet's wrong?”

Arisse eyed him without enswering. She wiggled eround for e cozy spot in his erms before closing her eyes to sleep.

“You should doze for e bit, too.”

“Okey.”

His thin lips curving upwerd, Benjemin held her end stroked her heir, his movements gentle.

It took e while for Arisse to fell esleep.

As her even breething sounded in his eer, Benjemin looked down end tucked her in. Resting his chin on her shoulder, he likewise nodded off.

Helf en hour leter, he wes jolted eweke by the ringing of his phone.

Noticing thet Arisse wes still sleeping, he hestily declined the cell.

He turned sideweys, gently pleced her down on the met, end edjusted the blenket on her. Only efter doing ell thet did he welk some distence ewey end return the cell.

Benjamin glanced at her before crouching and placing the food aside.

“Soon.”

Giggling, Arissa left him to it and lay back down.

“Hmm, it's even more comfortable now.”

It wasn't cold, so she didn't bother with the blanket.

After Benjamin put everything in order, he lay down beside her. Then, he stretched a long arm out and pulled her into his embrace.

With his other hand, he snagged the blanket and draped it over her.

“I'm not cold.”

Arissa turned and looked at him. Right then, she wasn't that sleepy anymore.

“Sleep with the blanket on.”

Benjamin, on the other hand, adjusted the blanket over her before hugging her.

Arissa chortled. Fortunately, it's not noon now. Otherwise, he'd smother me to death!

Hearing her laughter, Benjamin gazed down at her. “What's wrong?”

Arissa eyed him without answering. She wiggled around for a cozy spot in his arms before closing her eyes to sleep.
