Page 73 of The Passion

And as much as I try to keep the kiss sweet, it’s heating into something far more.

Shifting her off me, I stand and take her in my arms. We walk to my room where I intend to make love to my lady.

Slow and sensual all night long.

Telling her over and over again, how deeply I love her.

There was no way I was getting out of bed this morning until she woke up and I had time to remind her again that she’s mine.

“You need to feed me, I don’t think I can move.” Her sleepy voice is like music to my ears. It’s one of my favorite ways of caring for her, showing my love through my food. Who would have thought that day I got off the plane in Australia and walked into Nic’s restaurant, that cooking would change my life in so many ways. I might not be a chef anymore, but it is still my passion, and finally I have someone to spoil with it.

“Stay here, princess, and I will bring you breakfast in bed,” I whisper in her ear. I’m spooning her from behind as we are both just looking out at the view of the sun rising over the London skyline. No matter how little sleep we get at night, it seems neither of us can sleep in as we are both so used to being up early.

Just a pair of workaholic insomniacs.

“Well, it’s not like I can get up, because I don’t have any clothes to wear.” Her reply makes me smile. I’m always one step ahead of her.

While she was still sleeping, I messaged Harper, and after a very long abusive reply for not letting her talk to Felisha last night, I organized for her to get some clothes and have Forrestdeliver them to me. They should be inside the foyer, as I heard the elevator come and go earlier.

I then sent a message in the group chat. Today we need to forget about everything, and what better way to do that than at Nic and Tori’s farm.

Flynn: Any chance we can come out to the farm today?

Nic: Mine or Rem’s?

Flynn: Yours. Don’t want any hassle for Rem and Lou.

Nic: We are just out having some breakfast. Will head out there as soon as we finish.

Forrest: Is this a group thing?

Flynn: Yeah, can you do me a favor and bring Harper?

Flynn: Rem, invite Cherie too.

Rem: Will do. We are out at the farm already, so Forrest, can you bring Cherie too?

Forrest: What am I, the Uber driver?

Flynn: No, just the only single man, so you get the girls.

Forrest: According to the internet, you are still very single too.

Flynn: Don’t be a dick.

Nic: My nagging wife wants to confirm Felisha is coming.

Flynn: Yes, so tell her to play nice. The last 24 hours have been interesting to say the least.

Rem: By the way, I thought I told you to stay away from The Savoy.

Flynn: Since when do I listen?

Nic: I worked out years ago that you’re deaf.

Flynn: Harsh… but true.

Forrest: He’s not listening to me either.
