Adam paced before the adjoining room door for nearly an hour before his curiosity got the best of him. He understood his wife was probably asleep at this point. She probably had been from the moment she stepped foot into her new bedchamber. But it was his wedding day, and all he wanted was a glimpse of her.

He took a deep breath and tried the door, relieved to find it unlocked. He chastised himself for second guessing her; in truth she probably had no idea it could lock from either side, but it felt like a success all the same. He opened the door cautiously, putting pressure on the door jamb to reduce the squeak of the hinges as he stepped inside.

A small candle burned on her bedside table. Left there by the maid, no doubt. He approached under the guise of blowing it out and took a moment to study his wife.

Cori laid in the center of the large canopied bed, curled on her side. Her mouth was slightly open as she breathed heavily, but her face was completely free of trouble. In fact, until that moment, he had not realized how troubled she had seemed earlier. Not at the wedding, but after he had found her in the alcove.

Sighing, he vowed to determine precisely what was bothering her. And, more to the point, he resolved to never again set foot within her bedchamber on his own accord. At least, not until he had been invited. He needed her to come to him.

But those were worries for another day. At present, he merely bent down and placed a feather light kiss on her temple before retreating to his own room and subsequently falling into a deep sleep.
