The sun was shining perfectly through the windows onto the two lovers, adding warmth to the already passionate moment.
Perhaps it was the fact that the man had taken care of her through her weakest moments, Eudora George found herself feeling a little closer to Amos Granger.
Her body relaxed under his touch, no longer stiff as before. Eudora unknowingly pulled Amos closer to her body. Her softness and sudden eagerness ignited Amos’ inner desire.
Amos reacted instinctively and gently pulled Eudora's head back, deepening the kiss.
Cola tried wiggling out of Eudora's arms, and that sudden movement snapped her back to her senses.
"Mr.... Mr. Granger."
"Amos." he responded candidly.
"A...mos..."
"Off you go!" Amos put Cola down on the floor, which then ran cheerfully around the house with its new-found freedom.
Amos turned around and held Eudora's hand and pulled her towards the sofa. His gaze were fixated on Eudora's petite body, his eyes scanning her from top to bottom.
Eudora blushed and turned away shyly. Amos turned her around again and said, "Eudora, look at me."
The blinding lights in the room blurred her vision, and Eudora could not see him clearly. She squinted her eyes.
Amos could no longer resist his desire. He laid his body on Eudora.
The room was filled with passion.
After they were done, Eudora felt a little embarrased and curled up in Amos’ arms. She didn't expect she would lose her mind just like that.
The man laughed softly when he saw her adorable look. Eudora could hear his faint heartbeat thumping from his chest. That made her heart beat faster too.
"I... I'm going to cook."
Amos whispered softly, "You're still not full?"
Eudora didn't seem to understand his question. "We haven't had lunch yes?"
"Hmm?" The man suddenly regained his energy and pulled Eudora against his body. "It seems like I didn't work hard enough."
Only then she realised that he meant.
Eudora playfully pushed Amos away, "Aren't you supposed to go for work now too?"
"So what? I'm the boss."
"Amos!" she bit her lip in frustration and stared at him. "Stop it..."
Amos knew that she was really embarrassed so he stopped teasing her.
"You should take a rest. Don't cook tonight, we'll go out and eat something nice."
"Okay!" Eudora nodded and watched him leave after putting on his clothes.
After resting for a while, Cola ran to her feet and started barking. Eudora tidied up her clothes and got up. She took out a small basket from the storage room and made a small bed for the puppy.
Never in her life did Eudora think that she would have the chance to appreciate this kind of peace. It was almost too good to be true. For once in her life, Eudora felt that her fate seemed to be heading towards a good direction.
Eudora's phone suddenly rang, interrupting her thoughts.
As soon as the call was connected, Eudora heard a familiar voice yelling from the other end, "Eudora, are you still a human? You actually told Amos Granger that your father hit you?" It was her half-sister, Kesha George.
Eudora was taken aback. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Nonsense? How else would he had known if you weren't the one who blabbed it to him? He told Dad to come to his office this morning, and even broke a person's leg in front of him! The man just accidentally kicked his puppy. Does that even warrant that kind of punishment? It's obvious Amos is purposely trying to scare Dad!"
Eudora recalled what happened last night. When she was sleeping, she seemed to overhear Amos mentioning her father's name.
