Scarlet's little family had lunch in a revolving restaurant at the top of one of the hotels in the city and then they returned home to the castle. She handed Justin off to Gertrude to be given a bath, walked to the kitchen and then faced the tall hunky man that was itching to embrace her.
He had practically been begging her for some affection with every gaze he sent her way.
"Leave us." she told the maids and the guards around.
The second the last one stepped out, she looked at him and said, "Okay, bring it in." she opened her arms wide and waited for it.
Instead of a hug, she was kissed within an inch of her life and carried off her feet.
When her feet touched the ground again, her lips were bruised and her head was spinning but she was smiling and Esong looked positively satisfied with himself.
"Now I am happy." he declared.
"Good to know." she replied and she waved her hand, inviting him to lower his head a bit.
