Solitude (K&A) (1)
Keith laid on his side and observed the female sleeping soundly next to him. His cantaloupe-infused mate.
Her bruises and cuts were nearly gone, and he could see how beautiful she was.
Keith remembered how he carried Arya into the house and up the stairs (two at a time), and then he checked two bedrooms before finding the master bedroom. Of course, it was the last one he checked!
The bed was covered with red rose petals, and there were strawberries, chocolates, and champagne on the bedside table. Keith took a mental note to treat Zina for this extra touch. Zina was the one who prepared the house for them. And at some point, Keith heard movements downstairs, only to find fresh food in the kitchen waiting for them. Again, it was Zina. When he noticed a presence downstairs next time, Keith didn't bother with it, knowing it was Zina, and he hoped she brought more food.
