They were both groaning, moaning and sucking at each other’s tongues, as they worked their way to orgasm.
He could tell hers was fast approaching and she kept grinding her nub on the edge of his sex when she lowered herself down.
He let her. Needing to feel her come apart around him. He reached down between them and circled her nub, making her rip her mouth from his and crying out into the room.
Then she clenched hard around him, throwing her head back, and his name came pouring out of her in a scream, and he held her tight with one hand, and came deep inside her.
Filling her with his seed and breathing into her wet skin.
She collapsed against him and then gave a soft laugh, “You are too tempting sir. Trying to make me forget my troubles.”
He gave a soft laugh, “Did it work?”
She nodded and he pulled out of her and hated the loss of her heat surrounding him.
He kissed her over and over, and she helped him get clean after she washed herself.
Then he helped her from the tub and wrapped her in a cloth, drying her off quickly and then putting her in his bed.
“You haven’t slept much have you?” He asked and she shook her head, “No, I haven’t. Not with you gone and not at my side.”
He kissed her and then covered them with the blankets, “Sleep now. I am here. In the morning when I find out what happened, we will be leaving for the country. I am done with all of this.”
She nodded, “I want that too. I am tired of them hanging over my head. Of them still having a hold over me. I want the freedom the country gives us.”
He pulled her tighter to him, “I want that too.”
She let out a sigh and then her breathing quickly evened out and she fell asleep.

She hated being left behind again, but he gave her the task of packing their trunk and being ready as soon as he returned.
She gave in and he rode to Cole’s townhouse quickly.
When he walked in, he saw Cabe standing there, hale and hearty and he went to his friend’s side, where he hugged him.
“Thank the good lord you are home.” He turned and looked at Rose and he broke into a grin. “I knew Cabe would find you. I am glad you are home and that you are unharmed.”
He kissed her cheek and then went to stand by Burk and Cabe told them what happened.
He listened with fascination about all of it and was in awe of Cabe and his strength.
He knew what the man had endured hadn’t been easy and he was just grateful that his friend was home and alive.
When Cabe told them that he and Rose would be going to the country to wed, he knew that he had made the right decision and when it was time, he bid them all farewell and rode back to his love.
She was ready and waiting for him, and as Billy helped him load the carriage for the journey, he let her know that the story was one for the drive.
Billy let him know that the salon was in good hands, and Brooks thanked the boy once again.
Then he loaded his wife into the waiting carriage and road out of London without a backwards glance.
She made him tell the entire tale of Cabe and Rose and he did as she asked.
She gasped and cried in certain places and she hugged him tight in others.
He knew she was thinking the same thing. That they were both grateful Cabe had come out of this relatively unscathed.
