N/A : I'm deciding whether I should do mass release, comment here if you want a mass release ~

Maria is slowly opening her eyes, feeling lightheaded and her body feels heavy, like some heavy weight is resting over her own. By the way he is holding her, she feels like the most important treasure for him. But he is too heavy for here and she noticed her clothes. Her cheeks feels hot and flushed red, she pushed him away from her to examine herself.

She found nothing wrong, her body isn't hurting from last night's activity, she is just feeling sore because of his heavy weight on her. She sighed in relief, but then again, he wasn't wearing anything underneath his shirt.

Maria quickly got up and ran towards the bathroom, she took off the shirt and look at her body is the large, full body mirror inside the bathroom. Why do I feel disappointed he didn't touch me like that??

She stared at the kiss marks on her neck and breast, there were multiple. Her face were now beet red after seeing the situation. She went to shower to relieve herself.

The sound of water from the bathroom woken up Edward. Seeing that she was no longer besides him, he sat up. He took the phone and ordered room service, to buy new clothes for her - including the undergarments since they're on their way to a private beach resort. He also ordered breakfast for them both.

He chooses croissant pair up with coffee for both of them. He instinctively ordered more croissant. Croissant pastry in a crescent shape made from a laminated yeast dough similar to puff pastry. It is a buttery, flaky, and croissant is best paired with a cup of coffee, particularly a dark roast, as the rich coffee flavor complements the buttery richness of the croissant, making it a classical breakfast combination.

There was a knock on the door, he opened it and saw that it was the butler who he was talking to earlier. He was carrying a large paperbag.

"Good morning sire!" The butler greeted him, he nodded and opened the door widely.

"This bag contains everything you asked for sure," the butler said and bowed to him before going out.

"Thank you." He didn't forget to thank the butler, and there was also a servers coming inside to deliver their breakfast once the butler leave. Placing the breakfast he ordered on the table.

"Enjoy your breakfast! Please give us a call if you need anything else."

"This is all I need for now, thank you." He responded. After receiving all the stuff and food, he locked the door shut.

After spending time inside the bathroom, Maria decided to come out and was greeted by a wonderful smell or warm coffee and croissant, it smells like rich, creamy butter with a slightly sweet, warm aroma, it is a comforting, decadent scent due to its buttery, flaky texture and the process of baking which creates a lovely fragrance, essentially, the primary scent of a croissant is a strong, inviting buttery note.

Although she was still wearing bath robe, she dried her hair before going out. She immediately got hungry and sat down with him. She was well aware of what happened last night, he cheeks slightly flushed but she acted like she doesn't remember. It was too embarrassing to be bare in front of him.

She took a bite of the pastry, dipping it in coffee afterwards and sipping on her coffee. The coffee was served in a very unusual cup, it's like a never ending coffee due to it's size. She enjoyed every bite. The magic of a croissant and coffee pairing lies in the contrast of textures and flavors. The flaky layers of the croissant offer the perfect texture to complement the bold, full-bodied notes of our freshly brewed coffee. She never had croissant before for breakfast, but it provides her a comforting, indulgent experience that makes every bite and sip enjoyable.

Edward was silently observing her while he eats. He was happy with his decision to order croissant, she looks so happy enjoying her food. He coughed twice to gain her attention, and she gaze at him with a worried expression on her face.

"I also bought you some clothes, check it out later after breakfast." He said with a smile.

She blushed and said, "thank you." He is very thoughtful. Always thinking about her first before himself.

After sharing breakfast together, Maria went inside the bathroom carrying the large paperbag containing the clothes. She picked a pair of undergarments and clothing. Putting the large paperbag behind the door as she put on the new clothes.

It fits her perfectly. She picked the maroon turtleneck for a very specific reason - to cover the marks on her neck. And paired with a black skirt. She gaze at her reflection, after feeling satisfied she went out of the bathroom, carried the bag and she decided to fold them and arrange it inside a luggage. He told her that this room was his, and so is all the stuff inside but he denied about last night's incident.

"When are we leaving?" She asked him as he took the luggage from her grasp.

"We're leaving right now." He responded with a smile.

They got out of the room, he swipe the card again and with a "click" the door locked. She also tried checking if it was really locked.

"It feels amazing to stay here with you, but I'm also excited about where you're taking me." She giggled, while replaying last night's event in her mind. Her blushing face intensified.

"I'm glad, but this is just the beginning." He gave her a flirtatious wink.

After getting out of the building, they went straight to the parking lot where his car was located. He opened the door for her before going in the driver seat. And the started the car smoothly, safely driving the car out of the city.
