I stood on a straight balcony of sorts with one wall made up entirely of polished redwood drawers and gla.s.s cased shelves that held neatly folded white linen within, and emitting a strong scent of pine and camphor.

The other side was open s.p.a.ce that looked down to a neatly made king-sized bed with a low polished black and gold trimmed bed head unit. It was situated aesthetically at the center.

I leaned on the gold wrought iron vine leaf bal.u.s.trade that stopped me from falling down to the smooth white-grey vein marble floor below. On the left corner of the room, I caught sight of a sitting area and writing desk surrounded by wall sized book shelves containing many leather bound tomes.

Towards the central wall (beyond the bed) were clear gla.s.s sliding doors, which displayed a picturesque view of a secluded rose garden, dense wisteria and evergreen trees that provided ample privacy.

My heart raced with a thought that Small Cap would love to roam around that quaint garden. I hoped Dionysus and the children were treating him well.

I glanced up to a slow changing scenery of illuminant green, orange and subdue white clouds with tiny fairy ball lights sailing about the surface to give a feeling of an evening sky. The ceiling light evoked a dreamy feeling to the room. It definitely felt like a place one could sleep in.

"You coming inside?" Leinard regarded me with his raised one-brow look.

My heart raced with panic. I was in his room. I met his grey eyes and gulped at his alluring mannerisms.

"On second thoughts, I think Trix might need me at the bar." I inched backwards, feeling nervous about making a blunder.

I know Leinard was experienced with affairs of the heart and matters of body union, but I wasn't. I know that we had kissed and made love a few times now. Somehow, this felt different to those times. I felt extremely nervous.

"Oh, okay," Leinard pouted. "I don't want to do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable."

Mother of Minos, he was looking so s.e.xy right now!

I sighed and pushed aside my nervousness, especially when his expression was one of obvious disappointment. The least I could do was show some manners. So, I removed my shoes and placed them neatly near the door. A bit of Gat s.h.i.+em I'll hold on to.

"Geeze, you're hopeless at times." I closed the door behind me and stepped further towards him.

I wrapped my arms around his waist and initiated a kiss, tasting his sweetness and hint of his consumed alcoholic drinks. Our kiss lingered for a while before Leinard broke it off and gently led me down the wrought iron stairs that spiralled to the bottom floor.

He took me to his bed. I laid back with my face looking up to his. I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"Famine, only you will be in my bed," Leinard whispered. "I love you. Only you. Happy 19th birthday."

I answered to his love with a heated kiss, and eventually let my naked body do the talking as we pa.s.sionately loved each other until the first signs of dawn was visible in the sky high above the rose garden.
