Adeline was hoping Elias was joking. He wasn't. They did it on the bed, at the edge of it, and upon the headboard, until her trembling legs gave out, and her body twitched at his touch.

"Would you like a bath?" Elias cooed, his fingers kneading her scalp. He laid on the bed, naked, with her head tiredly resting on his chest. His gaze flickered to her thigh which was dangerously curled around his slowly rising manhood.
"Yes," Adeline mumbled.
Adeline was exhausted. There were marks all over her pale skin, and hickies were bound to form. She'd need to wear a turtle-neck shirt today, or else everyone would know.
