A knock interrupted them, causing Aileen to pull away.
"The men are ready and waiting for you, lord." Wilhelm called. Aileen smiled sadly and pet his cheek.
"You shouldn't keep them waiting.."
These bandits were rather smart, hiding like they were. They had already been searching for two days. They set up camp, relaxing after a long day of searching, but Ludwig could not keep his thoughts off of his wife.
Was she doing alright without him? Was she cold and lonely in their bed with him gone? He closed his eyes and thought vividly of her; how her eyes glittered when she looked at him, how embarrassed she became when he showed her affection. How her face twisted as he drilled into her~.
He thought he closed his eyes for only a second before he felt hands on him. When he looked, Aileen was there in only a loose linen night dress thst hung from her shoulder, her long red hair draping over both of them.
