Sebastian turned back slowly, his eyes meeting with Charlotte, "When you entered the room, did you touch the key on the outside?" he asked,
"Uhm," Charlotte murmured, her lips parting as if to speak, but she hesitated, feigning contemplation. "It was dark..." she began, shaking her head. "So... I didn't feel anything. I think maybe the key fell outside."
She started scanning the room, her eyes darting around for a solution. "If we can just find a long stick or something..."
"Stop."
Sebastian cut in, his movements abrupt as he walked to the bed and sat down. He placed his hands on his hips, his eyes drifting upward to meet Charlotte's gaze. His attention flickered downward to his rising shaft, and he felt a flush rise to his cheeks as he realized his state of arousal had not fully waned down.
