Amos returned to the dining table after the call. Eudora was sitting there alone waiting for him.
Eudora saw the suspicion in his eyes and answered, "I declined their invitation. I told them that my wound is not completely healed yet."
Her eyes were sparkling as if she was waiting for his compliments.
Amos sneered, "You are as clever as a fox."
Eudora pouted her lips. "If I were a fox, aren't you the big, old fox? Didn’t you just refuse..."
Eudora had been arguing with him a lot, but he liked it as she seemed to be more lively than before.
However, the term "old fox" sounded a little bit awkward.
"You’re a cunning vixen!" Amos teased.
She quickly replied, "You are a sneaky reynard!"
Amos nodded with satisfaction. "That's why we are destined to be together!"
Eudora was speechless.
She could never win against Amos.
They returned to their room in the evening. Eudora turned on her laptop to check her design drafts but Amos turned it off without a second thought.
She went for a quick wash-up and lay in the bed while listening to the wind whistling outside the window.
She rolled on the bed trying to fall asleep.
Bang! Eudora heard a thunderous sound from the yard. Startled, she quickly flipped the light switch.
Amos grabbed her hand and asked, "What’ s wrong?"
"Didn’t you hear it?" Eudora asked.
"What did you hear?" Amos questioned.
"That's impossible! I heard a loud bang just now!" Eudora insisted.
"You must have heard it wrong!" Amos pulled her back into his arms and said, "Let’s sleep."
Eudora didn’t feel secure and tried to get out of his arms. "I really heard it," repeated Eudora.
"Eudora, you’re playing with fire!"
His hoarse voice reminded her that she was in his arms. Her whole body froze and she stuttered, "I don't mean... Well..."
The man’s lips met hers accurately in the dark.
Since Eudora was injured, Amos had been holding in every time he smelled her seductive scent.
Now, with her in his arms, he was going to unleash his deepest desire.
Eudora was panting heavily as Amos kissed her. She gave in to him after struggling for a while and forgot about the loud bang she heard just now.
Amos' eyes became glassy after the kiss.
Eudora's body melted against his passionate touch, and especially after the intense kiss, her skin glowed under the moonlight as if she was asking him not to stop.
Amos kissed her again but more gently this time while undressing himself and Eudora.
His hands slowly moved from Eudora's shoulders and to other parts of her body.
He caressed her neck, then down her spine, and eventually to her waist.
Eudora’s heart was pounding in her chest. She murmured, "It’s ticklish..."
The man’s hand paused at the unhealed scars on her waist. She had both on her forehead and waist. The one on her waist was long and linear, like a centipede.
