Where Are We?

Nora looked around the small building with interest as she questioned Demetri," Where are we?"

"Someplace where we are hopefully safe and away from prying eyes. This is the old gardener's house."

As Nora followed the man, she took in her surroundings and marvelled at the inside. While the building looked shabby from the outside, it was a different matter from the inside. It looked like a fortress...

"You created this?"

"No. Your uncle did. He needed someplace away from prying eyes. At the time, his old gardener offered this place to him. I was brought here after being rescued from the yacht."

Unexpectedly, as they entered a small room, that looked like Demetri's, Nora could barely look around when she was inevitably pulled hard his hard embrace. Her hands wound around his neck as she kissed him back with equal fervour. When he'd brought her here telling her that he wanted to love her, Nora had certainly not expected that to mean literally.
