Chương 45: First night (2)

"Milady, what would you do if the lord has changed his mind and wants to do what is to be done on the first night? For you two to make love for the first time. Should I have a disturbance ready?" Agnes asked, willing to jump in if needed to pull Selene out of the room.

Selene laughed as she imagined Agnes barging in. "You won't need to do that. We both have an understanding that nothing will happen tonight. I trust that he has not changed that plan without speaking to me first."

Agnes gently brushed Selene's hair until she made it as silky as she possibly could. "You trust Lord Blackthorn a lot. I think of you as a wonderful pair but I always worry for you."

"He has not given me any reason to doubt him. I can't continue to judge him based on what Gabriel did but I will not miss signs that we will need to leave each other's side. You don't have anything to worry about tonight, Agnes. I will just rest," said Selene.
