The Duke's Masked Wife

The long-awaited day finally came. Well, the long-awaited day for Edgar finally came. Never before had Edgar ever been so excited to celebrate turning one year older. Normally he was not looking forward to traveling out of town to see his grandmother and relatives who gathered not to celebrate him but to ask him for something.

The servants left in the early hours of the morning, all excited to have a day off of work and even better, spend it at a house Edgar provided for them.

Alessandra was the first to wake up which was not usual considering it was always Edgar who would wake up first but she made sure to go to bed early the previous day so she would be awake before Edgar.

It was a struggle for her to get out of his grip on her like someone would steal her away in the middle of the night if he did not hold her so tightly. Alessandra had a feeling he had woken up in the midst of her fighting to get out of his hold but he pretended to be asleep to let her do as she was planning.

Once she was finally free, Alessandra took a bath and got dressed before going downstairs to double-check there was no one there but her and Edgar. Not even the kittens who were meant to be taken care of by Sally.  It came as no surprise to her that the servants left a couple of gifts for Edgar in the dining room. No matter what anyone said about Edgar, he did take care of those who were loyal to him and they repaid his kindness.

"It is time to start his day," Alessandra said, personally taking the tray of breakfast the cook left for her and Edgar back up to their bedroom. She intended for Edgar to have a good birthday from beginning to end which was why the guards on the outside were not to allow any guests no matter who it was.

It could be Tobias in desperate need of Edgar's help but Alessandra would not let him inside. That was how hellbent she was on only the two of them being together and enjoying the day without any outside drama.

When Alessandra returned to their bedroom, she found the bed empty and thought Edgar had gone looking for her but then she heard water splashing against the floor in the bathroom.

Alessandra placed the tray of food down on the table but took a small cake with her to the bathroom. By now, she wasn't embarrassed to walk in on Edgar while he was bathing. "I knew you were awake when I was trying to leave the bed. Couldn't you have loosened your grip to help me?" She asked.

Edgar sat with his arms spread across the tub and his hair pushed back, water dripping down his face to the smug smile on his lips. "Why ruin the bit of entertainment I had first thing in the morning? Is this a product of you trying to bake?" He eyed the cake in her hand.

"No, I had the cook bake me a small cake. My efforts were all in vain because I could not make a good cake for you in time but at least there is one for you to enjoy. I haven't lit the candle. One moment-"

"No," Edgar stopped her from leaving the bathroom. "Bring it here just as it is."

Alessandra thought it would be more enjoyable if the candle was lit but she listened to Edgar and went to the edge of the tub to sit down. "Happy Birthday, Edgar."

Alessandra held out the cake for him to try and said, "I told the cook not to make it too sweet for you to enjoy. How does it feel to be twenty-four?"

"The same as it felt to be twenty-three," Edgar replied, taking the cake from her. He always found that question to be foolish as nothing about his life would change in one day. "Well, unlike when I turned twenty-three, I now have a beautiful wife and I don't need to go through the you are getting older, you need a family conversation. Thank you."

"How is it?" Alessandra asked after he took his first bite. Edgar had a much better reaction compared to when he took a bite of her cake.

"It is delicious but it would be better if you get in the tub with me," Edgar replied. He was not joking about being with her intimately for the entire day.

"You said you were crossing off the bathroom," Alessandra replied, but her actions did not match her words.  She began to untie the string of her dress so she could get into the water with him. "There are many gifts you should open first. I have gifts I want to see you open."

Edgar leaned over the side of the tub to place the plate of cake on the floor. "There are some things I lie about," he said, referring to the bathroom being crossed off. "I will take a look at them when we make our way downstairs. I'm sure you have checked there is no one here so we can do as we want?"

Alessandra nodded her head as her dress dropped to the floor and all that remained was her bodice. She was against what Edgar had in mind at first but now that the day finally came, there was a great amount of excitement inside of her as she looked forward to the new things they would try today. Perhaps it wasn't just Edgar who became a horny beast after their first time.

Edgar, on the other hand, enjoyed how easy it was for her to get undressed before him. She was bold when she didn't overthink it too much.

Out of her last piece of clothing, Alessandra stepped into the tub of warm water and soap with Edgar. "You will owe me something because I am doing this when it was meant to be crossed off."

Edgar pulled Alessandra closer to him, mindful not to squeeze an important part of him while doing so.  He snaked his arms around her waist to keep her just where he wanted her. With her legs spread on both sides of him and her breast in perfect view.

Weeks later from when she first arrived, it was evident that she had gained weight after they focused on bringing her to a healthy weight. Parts of her that he liked had become fuller for him to grab a handful of like her thighs and dear he say it, her breasts seemed to be a bit bigger. He should know after spending a good amount of time feeling and staring at the two wonderful things.

"Why are you just staring at me?" Alessandra whispered, breaking the silence which had fallen over them. Edgar just sat staring at her when she expected he would have jumped straight to making love as he said in the previous days.

"Admiring your changes. Both your confidence and appearance. It is good to see you are eager to get started with my birthday gift. I'll need you to keep that eagerness and energy while I thoroughly enjoy all of you today," Edgar said, gripping her thighs to lift her up so he could have a better angle to penetrate her.
