" i'm sorry " Elizabeth said as she softly applied some alcohol into the wound .
He winced and Shut his eyes . " why are you sorry for " Ambroise said between taking a deep shaky breath and unclenching his hands .
" because my husband pushed you , i saw him " She looked at him , suddenly feeling her heart swill inside her chest . She felt some things she didn't want to go through again .
" he's an idiot , why do you love him ?" He said , taking the band-Aid from the box and trying to roll it messily around his hand .
She immediately snatched it from his reach and did not respond to him , instead she continued dabbing some alcohol and cleaned the wound . She didn't know what to respond with because herself did not know why she loved him .
Ambroise started feeling impatient when he saw that she dodged his question . Despite the wound stinging , he got her wrist forcefully and pulled her into his lap .
" what-" he cut her with a kiss .
Elizabeth was so startled she froze . She wanted to back off but his touch was strong around her waist . Their tongue collided as one and it was the first time a man have kissed her that deeply and lovingly , She never used her tongue in a kiss before .
He tasted out of pure alcohol , a mixture of whiskey and vodka , but still his sweetness was visible , Elizabeth felt all her emotions exploding inside her chest .... she felt happy .
He forced himself away from her . feeling him harden beneath her she widened her eyes in embarrassment and looked the other way .
" uh .... would you mind " Ambroise asked awkwardly, he carried her as if she weighted nothing and sat her down onto the couch beside him .
Elizabeth did not know what to say or what to do next , she just put her hands on her lap and looked down with her face flushed .
His eyes bored into her for a long moment , and then turned around and stared at the door , unsettled.
A hard minute passes by when Elizabeth finally decides to stop the heavy tension between them . " i should leave "
" whatever you want " Ambroise scratched the tip of his nose . Elizabeth saw that the band-Aid wasn't rolled well , so she took his hand and fixed it for him without another word .
Ambroise only studied her as she made a finishing three knot around his wrist before backing off . He admired her beautiful face , the long brown hair cascading down her shoulders stopping just above her ribcage , her Breasts flashed a little through the v-line cut of her dark dress . He kept lowering his eyes down to her tight curves , her thighs were perfectly fit in this dress he just couldn't keep his thoughts controlled , he wanted to do a lot of thinks to her .
" Good night chief " Elizabeth sweet face brought him out of his imagination . Looking at her with lost puppy-eyes , her heart almost stopped from how overwhelming this moment felt .
" wait , how can i repay you ?" Ambroise immediately stood up , towering over her petite body .
Elizabeth felt rushed by his sudden movement , so she stepped back but while doing so the tip of her dress got caught up in her heel making her almost roll back but Ambroise strong arms wrapped around her , breaking her fall mid-air .
Elizabeth puffed her chest in a relieved sigh , but when she met his dark eyes her face reddened .
Ambroise couldn't spend another second this close to her , he was turned on by her presence , especially in such tempting tight dress .
He pulled her up with him and unwrapped his arms from her , dropping them to his sides .
Elizabeth looked the other way , avoiding his eyes .
" chief - oh " Lieutenant Jasper suddenly opened the door . When he saw the scene in front of him , he immediately regretted . " sorry " he apologized before closing the door behind him . He thought that he may have had ruined his chief's mood .
" uh.... i'll go now " Elizabeth curtsied and walked to the door as Ambroise watched her retreating back leaving without saying anything .
When she was finally out of the door , Ambroise almost Immediately fell into the couch , rolling his eyes .
" fuck " he uttered in a frustrated sigh .
Through the night , everyone was going to their room . Elizabeth stayed behind with her Mother and Ambroise sister who continuously kept giving flattering remarks about her Brother .
" Eli , how's chief Ambroise's hand ?" The queen then asked Elizabeth .
She did not want to answer , she instead looked at the door of the room he's in . Room 005 .
" Elizabeth?" The queen's facial expressions changed into worry . She held her daughter's hand and squeezed it . " what's wrong ? Did something happen between you and Mr.Langlery "
Anastasia Langlery felt like an intruder, half of her wanted to stay and hear what Elizabeth thought about her older-brother as he couldn't stop blabbing about her last week when she came to stay with him , but she was a kind , respectable and an understanding woman , she knew when people needed their privacy .
" i will go check on him " with a smile she left them alone .
Elizabeth closed her eyes and wiped on her face .
" Elizabeth , you like him don't you ?" Her mother said watching the door of the room open and close behind Anastasia .
Elizabeth felt her heart sink . " i d-do not "
" then why are you turning red ?" Her mother reached for her daughter's chin and pulled it high enough for her to study her face . Diana was very glad that her daughter has already moved Shane August from her heart because She did not like him one bit . Their relationship was only based on political titles , despite wanting Elizabeth to find true love , she still couldn't help her by stopping their weeding .
" because it's embarrassing " Elizabeth hid her face from her mother . She thought about the kiss and how close his body heat radiated to her own hot body .
" speak to me Elizabeth, you know you will have my support forever " Her mother reassured her .
Elizabeth face was redder than a tomato . She felt her parts throbbing for Ambroise Touch as she thought about him .
She squeezed her thighs together and did an irritated whisper scream .
" E l i ! " her mother repeated with more force , hinting that she knows what she must be thinking about .
" fine " Elizabeth dropped her head on the table . " he's sweet and kind and a man of his words " she paused for a quick breather . " he's also overwhelming , infuriating and irresistible , he drives me crazy"
" and his also hot and handsome , a true work of art " Her mother cozied up to Elizabeth side taking her for a tight hug .
" mama , i am a married woman i shouldn't be feeling like this for another man " Elizabeth said looking up at her mother.
" it's okay to want someone , women also have their needs especially if Shane doesn't satisfy you enough-" Diana was about to start the 'sex' topic
" lala lala ... la la " Elizabeth closed on her ears as she chanted a remedy . " i don't want to hear about it "
" but you should learn about the body language, it's time for you to know when your body starts craving for someone's touch " her mother said .
Elizabeth remembered how her body was itching closer for his touch whenever he was around , so she took her mother's words in consideration .
" you're thinking about it , this means you do have feelings for him " Her mother said excitedly . She wanted to have this adult-grown woman talk with her daughter for years now , although Elizabeth always found a way to avoid them after the accident .
" i'm just thinking , get your head out of the gutter Mama " Elizabeth rolled her eyes .
" but you're making that face of yours that screams 'i definitely want to take Ambroise Langlery right here right now '" Diana jokingly emphasis on his name loudly .
" not so loud " Elizabeth was scared that someone may hear their conversation, so she softly put her hand over her mother mouth silencing her . " listen mama , i do like him but i can't ask for anything serious because i am still August's Wife "
" i sense there's a but on the way " her mother said in a muffled voice as she took Elizabeth's hand away .
Shrugging , Elizabeth takes a long breath .
" but , Shane already asked for divorce ." Her mother smiled widely . " he only asked , he said he will seal a deal and then divorce me as soon as possible " she added but her mother only smiled wider .
" so this means you can offer him a relationship to ?" Her mother looked at Room 005 and then back toward Elizabeth.
" No " Elizabeth said lazily as if she was very bored . " i will not ask him first "
Thought he made several moves over her , she did not want to give him the impression that she started crushing over him within four days . She kept her gaze locked on her mother face but still at the corner of her eyes she can see Ambroise Strong body moving .
She took a glance before nodding at her mother . " i need a month , to have a solid proof against Shane's affairs . One month , thus i will not be officially ready for a relationship but i will try " Elizabeth said , looking in between her Mother and Ambroise's back .
Diana saw Elizabeth looking behind her , so she checked from her shoulder . With a grin painted on her face she turned and looked back at her daughter . " yes , i assure you , you will be wanting a relationship" she assured her confidentiality.
" okay , we will find out in a month from now " Elizabeth gave a slight nod and stood up . She straightened her dress before walking past Ambroise to a lobby leading to her room .
The room number was 010 , it was a luxury room , the moment she opened the door and stepped in she immediately regretted it .
" oh , finally my dear wife "
