The weather the next morning was rather chilly, cold air sipped inside the room through the open window and sia groaned as she shifted around on the soft bed, snuggling to her pillow. She had to admit the pillow was soft and warm she just wanted to snuggle close to it forever.
“Mmm”she moaned softly as a smile crept on her lips, she wanted to wake up, but her body felt heavy like something was on her however her eyes flickered open as she adjusted to the bright light and felt cold air brush against her leg. With lazy eyes, she lifted her head only to see him, sleeping so close to her, his arm was on her and SIS’s leg was between his. Her heart thumped so loudly as she grew restless with the position both were in. Immediately she tried to keep him away without waking his up, but he was just too strong g to move, sia was helpless as she bit her lower lip awkwardly and shifted her eyes to the Greek god who was sleeping next to her. It wasn’t old news that Emiliano had killed looks, but from the contours of his face, his smile, his eyes down to his perfect body. The man was what she called a perfect creation, she wanted to avoid viewing anyone as perfect, but Emiliano had all the good qualities a man can have to stir trouble with his looks wherever he went.
“Stop eating me up with your eyes woman”while lost in her dream world admiring her husband she heard Emiliano speak and immediately lowered her head in shame and Emiliano chuckled as his eye flew open, and he sat up getting away from her. Sia felt cold because his warm body had shifted from her, surprising every morning he woke her up with a smile or some naughty words, but now he got up just like that. Emiliano sat up and carefully lowered his feet to the floor and sia watched his back and her heart ached, his back was bruised too bruised for her liking.
“I’ll get ready first… we have a big day ahead”Emiliano said and got up as he walked to the bathroom but sia stopped him and the man turned around.
“I’ll… I’ll run you a bath”she said again, but Emiliano was still confused as he narrowed his eyes at her and watched as she jumped out of bed and quickly tied the robe tightly around her body and walked pass him and entered the bathroom without giving him a chance to say anything. Feeling helpless he stood there anticipating on what was going on so suddenly, last night his wife didn’t seem like she wanted him, but now she was someone else.
“Its fine”she came out breaking his trace of thoughts as Emiliano mumbled a ‘huh’ which sia didn’t hear however if she knew just how many questions he had for her then he was certain she would be agitated.
“Umm thanks”he didn’t know what to say, so he just said the only words that came to his mind and prepared to walk to the bathroom, and again she said something.
“Well… what I meant to say was… you injured haven’t healed up yet… so I wondered if I could help you a little”she stammered the words out as she fiddled with her fingers which seemed cold and sweaty for some reason, what was she saying g even her didn’t understand why her mouth and brain were working together against her to bring shame on her.
“Now really?”he said it with uncertainty and looked at his exposed upper body, and she was right he had bruises all over him and doing something reckless was likely to land him in hot soup therefore if his wife was suggesting to wait on him, then who was he to deny such a generous offer from her.
Emiliano nodded and sia smiled faintly as they walked to the bathroom, the place was huge, more like a mini apartment.
Sia watched as her husband got rid of his trousers and kicked them away and lowered in the large round bathtub and sia heard him hiss because just as she said his injuries were vulnerable to the hot water.
“Just a little more”sia whispered as she ascended on the steps and carefully stooped down, so she could match up to his level. Emiliano had his eyes closed as he adjusted to the burning sensation his body was suffering, but that wasn’t it because immediately Sia’s soft smooth hands connected with his skin, he flinched a little and knew he would be tortured. Sia on the other side was being careful not to cause him pain but seeing how he kept moving away each time she scrubbed him with a bath sponge, she knew Armando was a monster who never thought twice when doing something. Emiliano was going through so much pain, and she couldn’t do anything.
“Is it hurting when I press hard?”she asked in a strange voice that Emiliano hadn’t heard before, it ringed in his ears as his eyes automatically closed, it was smooth and soft. Her closeness, especially her long hair, which was draped over his left shoulder.
“Everything is fine”he murmured and sia moved the sponge to his chest, and she shifted a bit sick she could reach him, his arms were suspended to the sides of the tub and sia kept her eyes away from his rippled muscles that spelled trouble, her heart kept on betraying her not knowing that she was affecting Emiliano in the same way.
“A… are you sure”she asked as by now she has reached his wet face, his hair was slightly wet since she had poured some water on him.
“Will a lie be truthful”he muttered but sia didn’t understand where he was going or what he meant, but she was aware just where the conversation might lead, and hence it was her cue to leave the crime scene.
“You can take over now… I’ll go make breakfast”she said and tried to flee but Emiliano grabbed her arm in one swift and pulled her back that she was now sitting nearly the tub as his escaped her lips thinking she would fall in, but Emiliano held her in place and shifted his hand to the back of her head while the other around her waist.
“Do you feel that… you can’t deny it Sia”he murmured as he rubbed the back of her neck with his thumb but Sia didn’t say anything as she fixed in his eyes.
“Hmm”she hummed and saw a slight smile crept at the corners of his lips and Emiliano pulled her head to him and placed a warm kiss on her forehead that had said closing her eyes.
“Will you allow me to start over… to show you just how much… just how much you mean to me… how special you are in my life”this time his voice was low a bit deep and his eyes had softened that it gaze could melt a heart at just one glance and sia knew her heart had melted.
“Yes”she replied without thinking twice about it and Emiliano smiled warmly.
“I promise… I won’t do anything to you unless I prove I’m worthy of your love… until I get back the trust I broke and to show you I’m not attracted to just your body because… I would never use you in any way… you mean everything”he went on and said just to make her understand, he was aware of how she accused him of using her, but he wasn’t like that.
“O… okay”she nodded and sniffed away tears not wanting to cry or breakdown in front of him, she was a strong woman.
“Good because I already made arrangements for our day, since you love taking walks… I think we’ll go sightseeing around the city”he suggested and sia nodded, her eyes were concentrated on his red lips, the urge to suck those lips kicked in making her feel things.
“Yes”she exhaled the word out and pushed him away and out the bathroom she stormed out leaving Emiliano cursing as he splashed water on his face to cool off. Sia had run out of the bathroom and shut the door and leaned towards it and put her hand on her chest to keep her pounding heart calm but all of it was useless.
Meanwhile Rhea has had enough dealing with Logan.
