Chapter 30: Chapter 29- His room

"Wait for me...it won't take long." Saying so, Austin closed the door of the bathroom.

They decided to have a walk around the garden together as a part of his recuperation, so he went to take a bath.

Left alone in his room, Valerie remained standing at her spot for a few seconds before she started looking around the place.

'This is the room...where he sleeps...and spends his alone time...' Her heart rate began to accelerate while imagining how vulnerable her Lord must remain in this place.

Tracing the edges of the chair where he sat as if to memorize its texture. Inhaling in the same air where he lives....gave her an unusual sense of relief and excitement.

Her eyes lingered on the door behind which he stood. She couldn't help but think about what could be on the other side—making her face hot as a strong gulp traveled down her throat.

Her eyes then traveled toward his bed; it was not much disheveled and only a few wrinkles could be seen.
