Kamil moaned softly and turned onto his side, his eyes opening up as he found his arm around someone's slim waist.
Ah, yes, that's right.
He couldn't help the smile that came on his face before he set a soft kiss on top of Reza's forehead, not wanting to wake her. (He realized that kisses on the forehead from her were rather affectionate, and he liked that.) It was enough to just watch her sleep for a little bit.
He couldn't help but notice how...serene and just peaceful she looked. The color of his sheets complemented her skin tone. Her eyelashes were rather long and had a slight curl to them. Her hair always invited him to run his hand through it.
...yeah, he noticed he had to stop studying things so much. But he couldn't help but let his hand leave her hair to brush her cheek.
Kamil had this habit of having one arm around her waist when sleeping, it kept her nicely snuggled by him, so Reza didn't mind it at all. It was comfortable and warm and he made a good pillow so Reza just wrinkled her nose a bit when she felt a hand on her cheek and nuzzled closer not wanting to wake up yet.
Of course that went not as planned and a few moments later she was blinking and moving one hand to cover the one brushing her cheek. She held it for a moment there turning her face to place a kiss on the palm of his hand before her eyes turned to him.
He blinked as she moved, sighing to himself. He didn't mean to wake her up. And yet...the way she woke up, it seemed right. He was very comfortable about it.
He set a light kiss on her lips, "Good morning. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you up. I do hope the sleep was good, though."
Reza made a little sound and then muttered something like 'Ssokay' as she released his hand. "Mm, it was good." Rolling she pressed her face against the pillow for a moment before giving a sigh and lifted her head moving one arm to prop herself up.
"Did you sleep well?"
Was it late? It was hard to tell, not that she cared about being in time to most places but...
"Better." Reza admitted, she felt a lot happier than when she had arrived at his door last night. She wasn't totally happy because there were a few things unresolved with Damien and Katya but for now she was much, much better.
She frowned for a moment considering and then she turned to look away from him. "There are a few business things we've been needing to discuss." Reza shuffled some more, pressing her back against his chest and pressed her lips together.
"I suppose I'll go to that meeting, dinner, thing on Thursday,"
Kamil frowned, before he blinked, this time in shock. He wasn't sure if she was indeed not going to show up, but her confirmation that she would be going to the dinner meeting made him wrap his arms around her, a pleased look on his face. "I'd be very happy if you showed up, Reza.
"So, what else would you like to discuss?" He was pretty awake now, and he was very attentive to her words.
Reza was pleased at his reaction but said nothing other than cuddling back against him, content. "Oh, really?" her tone was teasing, "Can't wait to tie me up again?" Of course this time wouldn't be like that, her hands went to rest on his arms.
"Well, there's more serious things. The leaking of the HQs location, two Black Order Generals have been murdered recently. One in their own home." She pressed her lips together the unspoken 'I'm worried' hanging there but Reza didn't say anything else.
"No, I won't make that mistake again," he chided, letting his head rest lightly on her shoulder. Although there were those handcuffs--
She couldn't see it, but he frowned when she mentioned the Paris General that had been killed. "To go that far to accomplish their goals - it's disgusting." He bit his lip before he continued, "It's why my sisters don't live with me. I don't want people like to try and ambush me here and instead it's one or both of them, and they suffer for it."
But the other general - Rome's General - his death was still being investigated. Things like that made Kamil want to move the twins to London, at least away form danger for the moment.
And as for the leak... "A big part of me wants it to not be a Knight. I want to take you all to that final day, but I can't do that if I don't have your full and complete loyalty."
Reza wanted to argue that they were not much different from the other side. They would do the same things, it wasn't... it really wasn't that big of a difference. At least she thought so. She didn't push him into an argument though, nodding. "They seem nice... so, I'm sure they'll be fine." The words were awkward from her but honest.
However his last comment made her chuckle a little. "Loyalty, mm." she turned slightly to look at him. "You should keep someone around, to watch your back." Reza wasn't offering but she'd do it.

He reached over her to turn the clock around, laying back down. "Mm, we can continue sleeping, or talk for a bit. How are you feeling?"

Not out of loyalty just because she wanted to.
