took for him to know the problem. As he too remembered the reasons I had even asked this of him last night.
We had our goodbyes and they had hurt…they had near fucking destroyed me!
“And there she goes again,” he muttered raising himself up from me.
“I can’t do this…I can’t let myself…”
“Ssshh, stop, Amelia,” he said sternly before taking me in his arms and holding the back of my head to his chest, before telling me,
“We are still due that chat you and I, which I will give you as I know you need it….” Then he eased his hold and tugged on my hair a little telling me to look back at him,
“Just as long as you realise that after we do, this…what we have right here…it doesn’t change a thing.” I swallowed hard and forced his name through my lips, intent on telling him I didn’t even know what.
“Lucius, I…” he quickly interrupted me, obviously not taking any chances on what I was about to say.
“I am not going anywhere…End. Of. Discussion.” His firm voice brooked no argument in the matter, so I didn’t even try.
“Now this is what is going to happen, I am going to order us some room service whilst you have a shower.”
“So, I need one then?” I asked on a laugh. He grinned and told me,
“You taste just find to me, sweetheart, even if you do smell like a cocktail bar.” Then he caught me under my chin and gave it a little playful shake before he left the bed, walking away now with his gorgeous ass on show making me say,
“Oh, come on! Seriously, give a girl a chance!” He chuckled to the sound of my rant and whilst completely naked stood there with the hotel phone in hand as he ordered a selection of food to be brought up. This was when I thought it best to get my ass up, one that thankfully wasn’t on show due to his t-shirt looking more like a short dress on me…a wet one.
Then, whilst he was preoccupied, I ran into the bathroom and did what was needed, ending up in his shower once more. In fact, I was just enjoying the solitude and the feel of the powerful jets raining down on me when a very powerful and also, very naked figure walked around the shower wall and joined me. My hands flew to my girly bits making him raise an eyebrow and tell me,
“Even if I didn’t already have every inch of you burned to my memory, then the image of you without your dress on from only last night will be…everlasting,” he said, whispering this last word down at me before taking my place and ducking his head under the spray, making it near hard to breathe at just the sight. Then I heard him clear his throat before asking with a knowing grin,
“You finished or do you want me to help?” I bit my lip, blushed, and told him in a shy voice,
“I’ve finished.” Then as I turned from him, I felt a hand span my belly as he pulled me back against his naked front as he rumbled in my ear a growled insight to his thoughts.
Thoughts that soaked me much more than the shower did, for his words felt more like a promise…
“Now that is a shame.”

Trust Talking to Tie Our Sins
After this sexual promise of his in the shower, I got out quickly leaving him to his knowing chuckle. Then I made quick work of getting dry, dressed, and looking somewhat human again. And I achieved this by tying my hair up into a high ponytail, putting in some new contacts, that I had been able to order online, and adding a light touch of makeup, concentrating on the dark circles under my eyes…thank you, hangover.
I decided this time to forgo the usual t-shirt and shorts that he had found me wearing yesterday, opting for something a little sexier…because like I said, only human. So, today’s choice reflected on what I would have picked, had I known the love of my ‘broken hearted’ life would show up. Which was why I was naming this outfit, ‘a little late to punish him with how nice I looked’, deciding it was better late than never.
So, I snapped the pearl pop buttons together on my shirt dress that was a tight tunic style with a mandarin collar. The chest area had rows of embroidered flowers in the same pink, blush
