sima came in," miss, I brought you a replacement bracelet. its identical...I hope this will suffice "
I nodded," thank you "
"also dinner is ready..."
I stood up and nodded.
The dinner was the discussion place,we ate and with the approval of mother, I was finally allowed to go,
by the time, I ate, steve looked pale.
I looked at him intensely as if I could know why he looked pale?
"quit staring at me" he spoke
"I wasn't"I flustered
"hold this" he said giving me a pin,"would you like to walk with me?"
I was about to say when mother called steve,
I was grabbed by sister Elizabeth
I looked at with a effort to look at steve simultaneously.
"sister!! what is that you want?"
"you are not wearing the jade bracelet"
I smiled,"I left in my room"
"you should always wear it, it's really important "
by the time, I looked at the direction where steve was just a second ago,
he was gone.
"steve had some work left..so he went with mom "
I nodded my head,"then I will be going to bed"

were all in black.

"How come?" He said placing the towel on his wet hair.

" you were to focused on me" he whispered in my ear sensually "want a better view "
"I..I..."

he pulled my chin up to make eye contact with me. my heart was pounding in my chest, I inhaled the vague mint from the closeness.
That face which I was wanted to be looking at me.
His hand traveled from my chin to my collarbone," you are beautiful "
Those words made instant butterflies in my stomach. His other hand touched my cheek and then rubbed my lips.
His pupil were filled with desire, finally He softly placed his lips on mine, my hands automatically hanged around his shoulder and he was slowly pulling me closer.

our tongue collided and I felt a spark run through my vein. He pushed me on the table as if wanting more of me.
suddenly there was a knock on the door,"master, is lady carol in here?"
I broke the kiss and pushed him away
he raised his eyebrow," Is this the way how you treat the husband you just kissed?"
I smiled shyly," you!!!" I stormed out without making eye contact.
my cheeks were hot but all I felt was happiness. at the same time I am embrassed.
