Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 851

Chapter 851

It was another beautiful night, the kind with a bright moon and clear skies. Andrew had gone to bed early, hoping to finally get some rest.

Honestly, he had not been sleeping well these past few days. Especially last night–after punishing Francesca the entire night, she had begged for mercy, her legs too weak to stand.

Andrew was not made of steel either, and the fatigue was starting to catch up to him. Just as he turned off the lights and settled in, he heard the door outside creak open.

His ears twitched as he frowned, thinking, “This is the most high–end private villa in Moonlit Sanctuary–there’s no way some random thief would just break in, right?‘

Then, the light in the outer room switched on, and there was the soft rustling sound of someone changing into slippers. With the sound of another click, the light went off again.

A shadow carefully tiptoed across the floor, each step so light it sounded like a cat sneaking around.

Andrew smirked in the darkness. ‘Wow, a considerate thief. The intruder is even changing into house slippers- clearly, this is a thief with some class!‘

Whoever it was, they crept straight toward Andrew’s bedroom. Before he could react, the person dove under his

covers.

“You jerk, I’m sleeping with you tonight!”

The familiar scent of sweet milk filled Andrew’s nose. He did not even need to guess–he reached out, grabbed the soft little body, and pulled her out of the covers.

He asked, “Fran, didn’t you say you weren’t coming tonight?”

Francesca huffed. “What’s it to you?”

“Alright, but if you’re staying, aren’t you going to undress?

“Nope! You’re not touching me tonight!”

“If I’m not allowed to touch you, then why are you even here?”

“I came to sleep! What, is that not allowed? You gave me the key, so I can come and go as I please.”

“Fine, you can sleep, but can you stop grabbing me down there?”

“I refuse!”
