Chapter７６

Emily

To express my satisfaction, I let out a sigh. Following our steamy session in the conservatory, Mathew had me brought upstairs for a nice, long soak in the tub. Using his deep, rumbling voice, he had washed and combed my hair while telling me how lovely and beautiful I was.

When Nicola got home, I was at my most at ease, tucked up against Mathew on the sofa watching Arrested Development. It seems that Mathew preferred comedies, whereas Nicola was more into serialized dramas. I appreciated their company on the sofa more than the show itself, although I did like them both.

When Nicola came into the media room, I gave him a warm smile. When he saw me in Mathew's arms, he smirked.

Then he inquired, "Did you have a nice day, Sweetheart?" as he drew nearer to me. He sat on the other side of me and put his arm over me, kissing me briefly.

I responded with real joy, "Wonderful, thanks."
