CHAPTER EIGHT

THEY PRACTISED A LOT, and got so good that a week later Georgie thought it was just as well that the walls were soundproofed. Finn was very inventive and, as she’d suspected, he knew things to do with positions and accessories and devices that she’d never even seen before, let alone deployed.

He just had to look at her and she became flushed and aroused. Every night as soon as Josh had been put to bed—indecently soon, actually—Finn took her hand and led her into the nearest bedroom, where they stayed until either day broke or their son woke. She’d lost count of how many orgasms she’d had and she was fast becoming addicted to the things he could do to her.

She wasn’t just surviving the way he handled her body, she was thriving on it, as the entries in her diary detailed, which only went to show that oxytocin and dopamine and the endorphins that accompanied them really were good for the brain. And if something was occasionally missing, if she sometimes felt a bit hollow on her way down from the bliss and sort of wished she could have all of him, well, that was the compromise she just had to make, in the same way that all this lovely nocturnal activity came at the cost of the conversation she’d been so keen to encourage.

Her days now had structure and routine and she and Finn were getting on splendidly, and she had absolutely nothing to complain about. However, in the absence of stress and anxiety and sexual frustration, she found that now all she had to wonder about was if and when he was going to introduce her to his friends as promised. He’d shown no indication of it so far, and she couldn’t help wondering why not. They were in every night, so it wasn’t as if a hectic schedule prevented it. So was it something to do with her, then? With their situation? Or did he see her as unfit for anywhere other than the bedroom?

There was only one way to find out.

‘So when am I going to meet your friends?’ she asked him one night as they lay sprawled across his enormous bed, the moonlight streaking through the windows and bathing everything in a silvery glow. ‘It’s been weeks. Are you in some way ashamed of me?’

‘What?’ he replied, his words muffled by the pillow he’d flopped onto only moments ago. ‘Don’t be ridiculous.’

Hmm. That wasn’t exactly an answer. ‘Don’t get me wrong,’ she said, trying to keep her voice light, ‘your attention is very flattering but a girl could get a complex.’ Especially a girl like her, with anxieties and insecurities that she knew could pop up at any time.

‘She shouldn’t.’

‘She might.’

He turned his head to the side and levelled her with a long, hot look. ‘Really?’

She nodded. ‘Really.’

‘I’ll set something up.’

‘Thank you,’ she said with a grin.

‘You’re welcome.’

‘I shall cook.’

‘There’s no need. We’ll go out. Or have something sent up.’

‘No, I’d like to. I used to love cooking and I can’t keep eating all the food the kitchens provide.
