"Minerva…" Leander said holding her close to his chest.
In his dark eyes she noticed a little swirl of ponderance.
"What?"
Viviana asked holding his cheeks.
"Minnie…" he chanted her name again and again as if he was saying a prayer while carrying her to bed.
Viviana heard her heart pound in her ears. Sinking in the depth of his magnetic eyes as she listened to him hum the name he gave her, she smiled.
"What is it, sugar?" she asked.
He smiled placing her on his lap. She wrapped her legs around his waist and rested her forearms on his shoulder to have a clear view of his eyes.
She'll never get tired of looking into his eyes.
"You're looking at me…" he smiled. "You weren't looking at me yesterday."
A layer of mist formed a thin curtain over his eyes adding to the allure. The corner of his lips was twitching as he expressed his true feelings.
