I get a vision of Hermione sitting to the side as he went down on Isadora, and I know he would have because he loves it more than anything.
Hermione lying there…watching him enjoy her friend’s body, my heart constricts.
I can’t imagine that pain….
He stirs and opens his eyes, he blinks while he tries to focus his eyes. “What’s wrong, baby?” he whispers sleepily.
Everything.
My eyes fill with tears and his silhouette blurs.
“Doe,” he says softly as he pulls me into his embrace. “I told you that you didn’t want to know.”
I nod through the lump in my throat.
“Our relationship is different,” he whispers into the darkness. “Stop thinking about it.”
I nod, knowing he’s right. I do need to stop thinking about it, this is not good for my mental health.
“Promise me you’ll tell me,” I murmur against his chest.
“Tell you what?”
“If you…if you want someone else, promise me you’ll tell me first.”
“I won’t.”
“But if you do.”
“I’ll tell you.” He kisses me softly. “I promise. But only if you promise me the same.”
I nod.
We lie in silence, the hot tears run down my face and damn it this is the most unstable I’ve felt in a very long time.
He has my entire heart in the palm of his hands.
“When I tell you I love you, I fucking mean it.” He rolls me onto my back and comes over the top of me. “We. This…. What we have. It’s different to anything I’ve ever felt before.”
I stare up at him. “I so badly want to believe you.”
“You can believe it. And you can trust me.” He leans down and kisses me tenderly. “I looked for you for three long years. Don’t let something from my past hurt what we have.”
He’s right…. I can’t let this poison us; I’d be a fool.
“I love you,” I whisper through tears.
He nudges my legs open with his knee and rolls on top of me, his thick cock slides through the lips of my sex as his lips take mine. “Show me how much.”
He said it was time, so here I am.
Edward wants me to join him in his world and announce our relationship.
Last time I was here seems like a lifetime ago, so much has happened since then.
The car pulls into the Monte Carlo marina and I nervously glance down at myself. I hope I’m dressed okay. I thought I’d go all feminine and wear a pretty floral dress, but now as we pull up and I peer out to the sleek five-story black superyacht…I’m not so sure this dress was the right choice.
I should have gone sexy….
My breath quivers as I inhale and I have no idea why I’m so nervous but I am, and I feel sick to the stomach.
This is the first time since Edward and I have been together that I’ve been in his world, the Monaco one. The life so far removed from who am that it isn’t even funny.
The car door opens and Philippe smiles down at me. “Miss Sorenson.”
“Thank you.” I climb out to see Edward walk out onto the main deck to greet me.
He’s wearing blue jeans and a white T-shirt; his hair is messed up. He looks up and sees me and gives me a breathtaking smile, and my heart stops.
My god…. How is he so perfect?
“This way, Miss Sorenson.” Philippe and another guard walk me toward the yacht, Philippe is carrying my overnight bag and another two guards in black suits are standing by the gangplank. “Hello, Miss Sorenson.” They nod.
How do they know my name?
“Hello.” I force a smile. Seeing him here in his natural habitat reminds me of who he actually is; up until now I’ve been living in a fantasy world with him in Nice, and it was easy to forget his past and his name and all that comes with that.
They usher me across the gangplank and Edward smiles and takes my hand. “Here she is.” He leans in and kisses me, his lips lingering over mine, and I discreetly pull back. Everyone is watching.
His eyes dance with mischief as if knowing exactly what I am thinking. “Place Miss Sorenson’s things in my bedroom. We can pull out now and will redock in the morning,” he tells them.
“Of course, sir.”
I swallow the nervous lump in my throat, we’re staying out to sea all night? What if there’s like an earthquake or a tidal wave or a damn tsunami for that matter.
I glance around, does this thing have a lifeboat? I make a mental note for later to find out how to work it just in case.
“Come.” He takes my hand in his and leads me inside and my stomach flips at the grandeur. Suddenly I’m taken back to the day when I came to visit him here and he told me I was his surefire and god, I’m so overwhelmed that I can hardly breathe.
