Chapter 0551 It was difficult to wait the hours needed for everyone else to have gone to sleep. | couldn't stop thinking about Nicholas, and being in his arms again. A late night swim sounded dangerous but | trusted him to keep me safe.
All had to do was wait.
Finally, after Elva was deeply asleep and the house grew quiet, | exited my bedroom. The guard at the door nodded at me but didn't otherwise comment. He probably noticed that Nicholas hadn't returned to his room yet. The guard likely knew exactly where | was going.
Desire filled me so much that there was no room for embarrassment.
| turned from the guard and tip-toed down the stairs. | was barefoot, wearing only my swimsuit, a new one that Nicholas had ordered for me when my others had gone missing. | didn't want to wake anyone else and have them asking questions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFortunately, the house was so well-maintained that there
weren't even creaks in the floorboards, and | was able to descend the stairs without incident.
The first floor was eerily quiet. Without the staff and with the lights turned off, the house felt abandoned. The starlight was bright from outside, however, and illuminated the way down the hall. The back door to the deck was unlocked as | slid it open.
Down by the water, standing just at the shoreline, | saw a familiar silhouette.
| approached Nicholas and without a word came to stand beside him. He was wearing his swim shorts and nothing else. It was difficult not to stare at him, and to instead look up at the stars. Both were equally as breathtaking.
In the city, | never saw stars like this. Here they completely covered the sky.
I wanted to say so to Nicholas, but | held my tongue. This close to the mansion, | was afraid anything | said would be overheard.
Nicholas glanced at me. Then he tilted his head to one side, gesturing further up the shoreline. | nodded, and together we walked around the water's edge, up to the very same alcove where we had made love.
My heart hammered in my chest, as my eyes traced
forward to the spot where we had laid together. There was no lingering evidence of it now. Water and wind had returned everything to how it was before we had been there.
Nicholas stopped when we were safely hidden from the house by the trees. He looked at me with hungry eyes, and I knew, though the land had forgotten what had happened here, Nicholas hadn't.
And neither had |.

Nicholas stepped closer to me. He wrapped his arms around my waist, then lowered his face down to mine and kissed me.
I sighed as | looped my arms around the back of his neck.
His kiss was gentle, but the firm press of his hard body against my curves sparked a fire within me. | immediately wanted more. | moaned a little, hoping he would take the hint and kiss me deeper.
Instead, he broke the kiss to chuckle. "Someone is eager tonight." "Don't tease me," | said, with a bit of a pout.
"Who's teasing?" he replied. His gaze dropped down to my lips and then down farther, to where my breasts smooshed against his hard chest. "I like you like this."
Then, at once, he surged forward and reclaimed my mouth. He showed no hesitation this time, as he licked his way past the seam of my lips. He delved deeply into my mouth with his tongue, tangling with my own.
The kiss stole my breath away. | had to hold on for dear life, as my knees felt like they would give out at any moment.
‘When we parted, mostly to breathe again, Nicholas looked at me for a long moment. Then he said, "Come with me into the water.”
