But looking at her face filled with gloominess and pain as if he was sending her to prison and snatching work from her, he felt a strange tightness in his chest. He closed his eyes and cursed himself for he knew he must be a fool to offer it. But the word left his mouth before he could stop it.
"Food?" He cleared his throat when he noticed the light sparkle in her eyes and the way her hands reached for her belly. Christ, she was hungry yet she did not ask him for food. He must be a sadist to hurt her this way. But then the way she had eaten in the morning, he had thought she was satiated for days. "Would you like to eat some food?" she nodded slowly, not sure if that was the right time to dive in the fantasies. But it would be a lie if she said she did not want it.
God knew how much she carved to taste those delicacies again!
