章節 98: Shiver
As promised, he was home early and I was incredibly nervous. I'd chosen a beautiful yellow dress and set the table on the roof terrace.
Surprise flashed across his face when he found me outside.
"I thought we could eat here?"
He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me in for lingering kiss.
Butterflies fluttered in my stomach.
"I ordered Turkish food."
"I'm hungry for only one thing."
I shivered.
"Let's eat."
What would he do if I told him the deal was off? I took a seat.
He watched me with intensity. Eventually he sank down on the chair across from me. There was a gentle breeze that caressed my skin and tugged at my hair.
"You look fucking sexy."
I started eating.
"Xu took me to the pavilion today. It was amazing."
"Good," He said with a hint of amusement.
Could he see how nervous I was?
"What about the restaurant owner? Did you convince him that the Fu will protect him from the Mogo?"
"Of course. He's been under our protection for more than a decade. There's no reason to change that now."
"Sure," I said distractedly, taking a gulp of the champagne.
He put down his fork.
"Shen Mi?"
"Hm?" I nudged a piece of cauliflower on my plate, not meeting his gaze.
"Fu Shen Mi."
His voice sent a chill down my back and I peered up at him. He leaned back in his chair, arms crossed over his strong chest.
"You are scared me."
"I'm not."
He narrowed his eyes.
"Maybe a bit, but mostly I'm nervous."
He got up from the chair and came around the table.
"Come here. " He held out his hand.
After a brief moment of hesitation, I took it and let me pull him to my feet.
"Let's get into the Jacuzzi, okay? That'll calm you down."
I doubted being in a hot tub with him in only swimwear would make me less nervous. So I didn't know what to expect and that terrified me.
"Why don't you grab your swimsuit and I'll set up the Jacuzzi?"
I nodded and went back inside.
And I picked my favourite nude swimsuit. I pulled my hair into a ponytail, then stared at myself in the bathroom mirror. I wasn't sure why this made me so nervous.
This morning even with just his touch had set my skin burnt. But he'd promised not to do anything I didn't want.
I took a deep breath and walked into the bedroom.
He was waiting for me in black shorts and they did nothing to hide his strong body. All muscles and strength. His eyes travelled over me, then he slipped a hand over my hip.
"You are perfect, wife" he said in a low voice.
With a gentle nudge, he led me out of the bedroom, down the stairs and onto the roof terrace.
I shivered in my swimsuit. The breeze had picked up and it was definitely too cold to stand outside in nothing but a swimsuit.
He lifted me into his arms.
I gasped in surprise, my hand coming up against the tattoo over his heart.
