Chapter Seven

Theo leaned back in his wooden, swiveling desk chair in the study, yawning and rubbing his eyes. It had been quite a day, filled with shopping for clothes and grooming products for Francesco, a stop at the dentist and the club doctor making a house call to verify Francesco was healthy. Other than the expected advice that he get more iron in his diet and put on a few pounds, he’d thankfully been malady-free.

Francesco never sat still and was curious about everything. There had been a bout of wriggling in bed the night before—accompanied by a lot of apologies—before Francesco had drifted back to sleep. He hadn’t been as fortunate. By the same token, he’d been thrilled and thankful to have Francesco in his arms and that he wished to share a bed with him going forward.

But, within two hours, Francesco had been wide awake again and they’d made a list of all they hoped to accomplish that day. Francesco had offered to make breakfast from now on if Theo would teach him first, which had ended up being quite eventful. It had taken an hour after they’d eaten to put everything to rights again before his housekeeper arrived and fainted at the sight. Shining Theo’s shoes and teaching him about using the shoe black and polish had been Francesco’s next suggestion, but the mere thought of Francesco handling the tins filled with the messy ingredients after the breakfast debacle had caused Theo to suggest they wait for another day. When I’ve had more sleep.

He smiled to himself. It was all worth it. He’d never felt so alive or filled with such anticipation. His instincts told him that Francesco would love being a part of his perverse world—he’d already shown himself to be quite amenable to serving and being trained by him—but that didn’t stop the small doubts creeping in that wanted to steal his happiness.

Theo glanced down at the piles of contracts on his desk and groaned. He’d thought he’d have time to whisk by his office and check in with his secretary while Francesco was at the dentist, but that hadn’t gone how he’d anticipated. He’d barely set foot outside the waiting area when Francesco had run screaming out of the dentist’s office, accusing the doctor of trying to kill him with sharp pointy things.

He’d had no choice but to stay by Francesco’s side to keep him calm and to talk him through the entire process while his teeth were being checked and cleaned.

After they’d finished their errands, eaten dinner out and returned home, it had been after eight o’clock. While Francesco had put away his new things in the dresser drawers and side of the closet that he’d cleared for him, Theo had managed to make his way down to his office to try and get some work done. When Francesco had popped in a few minutes later, he’d decided to hold off on checking how neatly he’d done everything and sent him to the library instead to work on his words.
