Javier sat up slowly, and Felicia pulled her head back from his chest, her hands still resting lightly on his shoulders. Javier narrowed his eyes at her, his voice carrying a hint of disbelief.
"Really? Liana said that?"
Felicia shifted onto her knees and wrapped her arms around him, pulling herself close. She rested her chin on his shoulder and mumbled softly against his ear.
"Yes. If anyone does that, she will kick us out of the harem. And she said..." She paused, her cheeks flushing faintly as she lowered her voice to a whisper. "...that those jewels are meant to give each of us an heir. The future of the Armand family. So we must protect them with our lives."
Javier's lips curled into a slow, sly grin. He leaned in, nuzzling against Felicia's neck and inhaling deeply, savoring her scent. His breath was warm against her skin as one hand drifted up to cup her breast, fondling it gently through her bikini top, while his other hand settled on her waist, pulling her closer.
