Tangled in His Obsession

Chapter 467

Leandro pressed closer to Seraphina, his voice a low murmur. “You’ve been fussing over everyone else all night, busy with this and that. Isn’t it about time I got my turn?”

Seraphina couldn’t help but let out a chuckle at his words.

Ever since Leandro had been home resting, she hadn’t had much going on herself. So, naturally, when presented with a rare gathering, she was eager to catch up on all the juicy gossip.

She had thought it was just normal socializing, but even that seemed too much for her man.

She snorted, “Haven’t I been worried sick about you all this time? Haven’t I been revolving around you like the earth around the sun? Where’s your gratitude?”

“Mhm,” Leandro grunted in response, “Then tonight, it’s my turn to revolve around you.”

“Hey” Seraphina’s protest came too late. Concerned for his health, she was reluctant; yet it was that very concern which prevented her from putting up a strong resistance.

She was torn, which was not the way Leandro liked things at all.

And with the skills and methods he possessed, he wouldn’t allow her to be so hesitant.

What had started as an urgent need in him slowly transformed into a patient play with Seraphina, a long engagement until she finally surrendered, wholeheartedly engaged. Only then did their night truly begin.

Seraphina felt like she was being spoiled rotten by Leandro.

For days on end, Leandro had been living the high life at home, doing nothing, and by association, so had she. Like a pampered housecat, she’d lost all her sharpness, fearing that her hard-earned skills were fading away.

Take the next morning, for instance. When it was time to take their son, Valerio, to school, she found herself lazing in bed, unable to muster the will to rise. And Leandro wasn’t faring much better-when she nudged the responsibility of school drop-off onto him, he stayed put as well.

Valerio knocked on their door several times, to no avail, ultimately leaving for school with the driver. The result was a very miffed little prince whose wrath was not to be underestimated!

Upon returning home that afternoon, Valerio had some stern words for his parents. With her face in her hands, Seraphina listened to her son’s complaints and immediately pointed the finger at the main culprit. “It’s all your dad’s fault. He’s the one who wouldn’t let me get up.”

Valerio turned his gaze to Leandro.

Leandro simply lifted his eyes, gazing back calmly, offering no defense.

Despite this, Valerio didn’t dare push too far and turned back to Seraphina, “Mom’s the best at dodging the blame!”

Leandro couldn’t help but chuckle, looking down.

Seraphina was shocked, “Why aren’t you on my side?”. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Valerio huffed, crossing his arms and turning his back to them, sulking on the couch.

“Alright, alright, I know I was wrong,” Seraphina quickly moved to hug Valerio, “I promise you, from now on, someone will take you

to school every day. If not me, then your dad, or… maybe both of us, okay?”

Valerio turned his face away, only softening after a moment. “What about dad?”

Seraphina shot Leandro a glare, and with a resigned sigh, he too made his promise, “Alright, dad promises too.”

Valerio’s mood lightened slightly, but then he looked at Leandro again, “Anything else?”

“Anything else?” Leandro raised his eyebrow.

Valerio, seizing the opportunity, had another demand, “Mom never had trouble getting up when she slept in my room!”

Seraphina burst into laughter at this.

Leandro shot her a glance and firmly told Valerio, “That’s not an option.”

Valerio’s pout returned, his young brow furrowing.

“Don’t you want a little sister?” Leandro said, “If you want a younger sister, you need to sleep by yourself=”

Seraphina quickly covered Valerio’s ears and threw a cushion at Leandro, “Have you no shame!”
