44: The morning after

In a grand room with a King size bed in the middle, a lady was on top the bed wearing a silk robe of golden colour.

Her legs were spread, as if waiting for someone but the man in the room with her was standing by the open window side.

"Damien" she called out to him three times but no response came.

She wasn't sure he heard her as he was lost in thoughts.

Angry that she was alone on the bed without him sparing her even a stare, she stood up and began walking towards him at the window stand.

"What? Will you rather she be the one on the mating bed waiting for you to consummate the mating ceremony?" Her voice was laced with venom.

Damien turned behind him to face her, his attention finally focusing on her.

He swallowed hard before he spoke, his hands trembling at his sides..
