Mordecai
I release a breath I didnât realize I was holding, when Maddeline stops talking. We just stand there for a moment staring at each other. It takes me a second to realize she is waiting for me to say something.
âSorry, I am not really good at this. Of course, we can take this at your pace. I do have one thing to ask. Would you please sleep in my bed? I just want to hold you as we sleep. Knowing that you are here and next to me is enough.â
She takes a minute to gather her thoughts before she answers.
âYes, I can do that.â
We each stand there for a minute just looking at each other.
âDo you have anything I can change in to, when I am done in here?â
Of course, she has no extra clothes.
âYes, I am so sorry. I will let you get cleaned up, and I will grab you something to change in to. I will use the shower on the other side of the house. I will leave the clothes on the bed for you, so you can have some privacy.â
She reaches out and lays her hand on my arm, standing on her tip toes. She gives a soft kiss on my cheek.
âThank you. For everything, your patience, respect and support. I havenât had that in a long time.â
I almost run from the room. I am afraid if I donât get away from her now, I will bend her over the sink and claim her immediately. Every part of my being is screaming at me to claim her now, but I have to respect her wishes. If I donât, I will only end up driving her away.
I grab a t-shirt and a pair of sweat pants. I know she is going to be swimming in my clothes, but I donât have anything else for her. After she is cleaned up, we will have to order her some clothes and have them shipped over night.
I grab a change of clothes for myself and almost sprint to the other side of the house. I want to make sure I am close by, if she needs me for anything. Before I hit the shower, I call over to the clubhouse and order some food. I hear Mason and Wyatt, in the back ground.
âCan you please ask either Mason or Wyatt to bring that to my house?â
I hear a muffled conversation, he must have put his hand over the receiver, the prospect gets back on the line.
âWyatt said he will drop it off.â
âThanksâ
I quickly strip down and get the quickest shower of my life. I hurry up and dry off, tossing on my fresh clothes. It feels good to get that grime off me, from the fire.
I walk back through the house, towards the master bedroom. I donât want to invade Maddelineâs privacy, but wanted to see if she is ok. I can hear her singing in the shower, the water still running. That brings a smile to my face.
As I walk back to the kitchen my phone pings.
