Chapter 8 - Chapter Eight

" where are we going then ?" Elizabeth hoped inside the car , it was a Mercedes Benz G class with Tinted Windows .

" you ask too many questions " he closed her door and walked to the driver side .

" why ? Wouldn't you want to know if you were in my shoes ?" Elizabeth asked , she was impatient to know .

" somewhere in Manhattan " he said , his eyes glued on the road .

Elizabeth shrugs and shrink further into her seat , watching the scenery outside .

It was a beautiful morning , sunny with a summery breeze thought it wasn't even summer yet . The black clouds that welcomed them on their first ship was now replaced with a bright sun and white clouds .

Elizabeth looked at his Hands around the steering wheel , big and muscled you can see the viens clearly when he tightened them .

She was fanning herself with that idea by now hoping that she didn't look flushed .

Ambroise took a turn to a Private Building , and took another one to the right where there was a beach down the fare path .

She looked at him speechless, knowing exactly what he was doing .

" if you don't want to swim that's up to you , but i can't wait to feel the water " He responded after noticing how stiffened she became in her seat .

Elizabeth opened her mouth to say something but nothing came out .

The car parked later and they both left , walking side by side to the VVIP part of the beach .

" For Very Vey important People " Elizabeth read the sign in front of her .

Ambroise reached the gate and a military officer met them , they saluted each other before the other let them in .

" there's a restaurant and a lounge if you want to change your clothes " Ambroise pointed when they walked down the long isle .

" but i didn't bring extra clothes with me " she looked lost .

Ambroise wanted to argue with her but he could never handle those puppy-doe eyes and that adorable pout . He sighed defeated . " my men will provide te clothes for you when you need them "

They reach the sand pathway and he starts buckling his belt .

She widened her eyes at the sight and cleared her throat . " what are you doing ?" She completely turned red as she looked up at him like a lost child .

" what ? I'm undressing " he stats as if it's the most obvious thing .

" but- you don't have - a - swimsuit " she looked at him shyly and when he returned the contact she turned away in shame .

" in my boxer's Eli " he said , spelling her name like a lullaby, drinking her in .

" okay " she looked around busying herself as Ambroise undress right behind her , staying with only his black CK underwear.

" you can look now " he said .

Elizabeth turned around and looked at him from head to toe , feeling heat rising to her head when she looked at his well built body , wide long shoulders and golden biceps .

He was a true work of art .

He turned to put his stuff down into the seat , his back muscles flexing with his every move .

" oh . My " Elizabeth murmured under her breath , shocked and excited .

He looked at her from his shoulder , raising a questionable eyebrow . " did you say something "

She slapped her mouth and nodded . He just chuckled .

" i'm gonna go take a dip , if you would like to join me " he smiled cheerfully at her before walking passed her and toward the water .

His retreating poster created an audience of young women at the restaurant .

Elizabeth brushed her hair away from her face as she watched him take a dip like he promised , showing her a relaxed smile and a thumbs up , she hesitated .

She tapped her legs impatiently and finally decided on taking off her clothes and joining him , because why the hell not .

She stood there for a while , enjoying the fresh cold water on her legs .

" Come " Ambroise offered his hand for her .

" if i drown , i'm hunting you down " she jokes as she takes his hand , with a soft tug she is pulled into his strong arms and into the deep water .

She squealed at the impact , feeling slightly safe and comfortable in Ambroise Arms encircling her tiny body .

" okay you are right , this is very relaxing " she commented , rinsing Ambroise's Hair with the salty water as he chuckled .

" you are welcome " he leaned into her gentle scrubbing as she massaged his scalp .

" you have nice hair " blushing , she smiles down at him .

She was to his eye level , so it was easy for her to stare into his eyes , getting lost into their sky blue color.

His chest rose heavily when the staring became intense . " Elizabeth " he called , shaking her away from her thoughts .

She hums in response .

" i have something to tell you " . His eyes turned soft at the statement, he looked like a pleading little puppy .

She nods . Ambroise started speaking but was soon cut by his head of security team .

" i —"

" Sir ? Two black Audi's have been spotted in our radar , they are twenty minutes away from the Hamilton's "

Elizabeth shares a panicked look with Ambroise , without saying a word he puts her over his shoulder and rush out of the water .

" weren't they having a meeting right after lunch ?" When he sat her down , she immediately dried herself with a towel .

" I didn't think they'd come to the Hamilton's , Grey's entreprise seemed a better catch" Ambroise explains wearing his tailored suit again .

She stares at him while he changes .

" i'll drop you to your room And head out again , i need to be present somewhere " he didn't wait for her to get dressed , he carried her clothes and purse and walked away .

" Wait-" she yelled after him .

She stepped inside the hotel room looking around , the room had a second floor and a bar in the foyer , it was a modern luxury room with normal and minimum decor that's why they preferred Grey's Entreprise . Thus all this , she precisely fixated her mind on Ambroise the whole time they were together , from the moment they shared at the beach to standing behind her .

She could sense his powerful presence behind her , even hear his heavy breathing . She focused on making her own breathing rate match with his —

" Eli ? Did you hear what i just told you " she hear him say in a more demanding tone . She tip her head up to see him .

" uh-huh ?"

He playfully rolls his eyes . " i'm leaving now , but i will pick you for dinner at 7 "

She froze in her place not knowing how to react to that .

" see you then " with a smile he leaves the room .

She listens to the door close with a simple click behind him before particularly jumping around in panic .

" what should i wear " she searches for her none-existed luggage before mentally remembering that it was left behind with the royal staff this morning .

" what should i do "
