These all take quite a bit of strength, physically and emotionally, to handle, and these are just the icing on the cake.

Laya chuckled reluctantly imagining the prince and Khal together. The picture was slightly arousing and when she saw Ryou’s embarrassed facial expression it seemed to be the icing on a delicious cake.
