"My lady, you didn't answer the question. Is your husband the best in the world or not?" Austin asked as he leaned closer to her lips.
Lina's cheeks became flushed and her heartbeat quickened, watching Austin close the distance between their faces. Then she said, "Well, he did chase away the estate's biggest headache without lifting a sword."
"Oh, he sounds like an amazing guy."
"He's more than amazing. He's smart, affectionate, and he always calls his wife beautiful."
"Well, since my wife is certainly beautiful, it's only expected of me to address her as such."
"Thank you, hubby."
"You're welcome my lady, but don't you think I deserve a reward for being an amazing husband?"
"Hmm, and what kind of reward would you like to have?"
"I believe you know what I want." Austin's lips were now just a breath away from hers, but this time, Lina smiled and her gaze flickered between his eyes and his lips.
