Timothy was beyond restraint. He pulled her hand down, curled one hand around the back of her head. and kissed her hard. It was messy and desperate, every ounce of his days-long fear pouring out into the kiss

His teeth grazed her lip, his tongue pressing in, greedy for the taste of her. His arm locked around her waist, pulling her closer, like he wanted to press her right into his very core.

Margaret tilted back under the force of it, her spine meeting the sofa cushions. She didn’t pull away. She let him take what he needed. Her arms slid around his neck, answering his clumsy, fevered kiss with her

own.

Timothy’s body burned against hers. His hands traced up the curve of her waist, his breathing growing heavier. When he moved to go further, Margaret pressed her palm flat against the back of his hand.

“Enough.” She pushed him back a little, her own breath unsteady.

His eyes were red-rimmed, his face the picture of devastation. “My Lady…”

“When’s the last time you showered?” She pinched his cheek in mock disgust. “Go. You reek.”

Timothy sniffed himself, his face went red, and he shot off the couch. “Right now! My Lady, wait for me!”

Margaret leaned back into the sofa cushions and rubbed her warming ear as she watched him flee.

“Host, something’s different about you.” Primo surfaced in her head, voice dripping with mischief. “You kissed him first. You’re falling for him.”

“Shut up.” Margaret shot the response silently.

She wasn’t falling. She’d simply decided to stop pushing them away.

The sound of running water came from the master bath on the second floor.

Timothy had his own fully equipped bathroom in his own room, but this clingy golden fox had insisted on squeezing into the master suite with her. No amount of shooing could dislodge him-as if he was afraid she’d vanish the second he blinked. Even showering had to happen within her line of sight.

He’d redone the whole house after buying it, inside and out. The sheets were new, soft and dove-gray,

Outside, they were on Prime Planet, the Empire’s seat of power. There were probably countless eyes trained on this villa right now, and the old fossils in the Cabinet were probably tearing their hair out.

But in here, there was only the sound of water and the occasional dull thud of Timothy knocking into the bathroom doorframe.

He was rushing. The water cut off. Less than half a minute later, the door swung open,

Timothy came out with his golden hair dripping wet, wearing nothing but a loose robe, the sash hanging slack around his waist and leaving a wide stretch of chest exposed. Water traced down his collarbone and disappeared into the fabric.

He didn’t even dry his hair. He crossed to the bed in a few strides, and the mattress sank deep under his weight.

He snatched the Holo-bracelet from her hand and tossed it onto the carpet. Then he planted one knee on the edge of the bed, his tall frame looming over her, caging her between his arms.

He didn’t speak. He just stared down at her, those usually bright blue eyes dark and heavy with heat-hurt. lingering fear, and a possessiveness so thick it was about to spill over. No words. Just that stare. Then he lowered himself onto her.

A body still damp from the shower, warm and clean-scented, pressed her into the mattress. He buried his face in the curve of her neck, nuzzling hard against her skin like a giant, insecure dog, breathing her in.

“You’re crushing me,” Margaret said, shoving at his shoulder. “Get off a little.”

“No.” Not only did he not get off, he tightened his arms and pulled her closer, wedging one leg between her knees and pressing himself into her embrace.

His skin was scorching from the hot water, and through the thin fabric of their clothes, Margaret could feel his heart hammering against his ribs.

“My Lady…” he murmured, his lips brushing her chin and trailing upward.
