Even though it was a few days ago that Leopold drove her to distraction, Emma remembered it like yesterday. Her heart raced when she remembered that he invaded her mouth, his tongue hot and heady. The kiss was even more heated than the few stolen ones they had before. She touched her nipples, recalling how sore they had been the following morning. She craved the feeling of him being inside her. She had been consumed by a fire that surprised her, for she had not expected the depth of it. He devastated her senses with his hands, that touch. She wished that he were home and she could plead with him to take her once more. Her nipples hardened thinking of his tongue.

She felt warm, and there was wetness at her core. She could feel it, and it made her ache even more. She never knew the core of her could give such pleasure, but, now that she knew, she wanted to take full advantage of the well-kept secret. There was no one to tell her how beautiful and thrilling lovemaking could be. She would be quite happy to succumb to the depths of her desire, and she hoped that she could whenever she wished, certainly as soon as Leopold returned. She could hardly wait.

She had languished in bed quite enough for the sun told her she was wiling the best of the morning away. She called for her lady’s maid, washed, dressed, and had breakfast. She decided to go for a walk in the garden to have a few minutes alone before she dealt with the children. It was not just the lovemaking. Emma missed Leo terribly. Even though her siblings remained at Adlington to keep her company, when she lay awake in her bed at night, her body ached for him. It had been three days since he left, and she hoped he would not be away for much longer. She was strolling in the garden when she heard quick steps traveling down the pathway. She wondered who was running when Cora appeared in sight. Emma’s heart thudded in her chest, and she hoped none of the children were hurt.

“There you are, Emma!” Cora exclaimed.

“Whatever is the matter, Cora?”

“Cook’s daughter, Ada, is ill. The poor thing and Cook is beside herself with worry. I told her you were a healer, Emma. Please come quickly.”

The urgency in Cora’s voice galvanized Emma, and she briskly walked down the path towards the kitchen. Cook’s name was Mildred, the master cook at Adlington Hall. She had been at Adlington for a few years, and apparently, the staff called her Cook rather than Mildred. The name had stuck. Her siblings freely roamed Adlington and invariably found themselves in the kitchen where they met Cook and, of course, left with sweet treats. From then onward, they visited the kitchen regularly.

Emma opened the main door and hurried to the kitchen. She could not keep up with Cora, who was skipping ahead of her. Emma descended to the kitchen to find Cook sitting at the table with a note in her hand.
