Of all the things Dominic could've possibly said to me at this moment this wasn't one of them and it makes my jaw drop in surprise.
"Are you serious?" I ask quietly.
He casually nods and says. "Of course I am."
"But-"
"Listen to me." He continues to tower over me. "Your dad said so much that night and it really had me thinking a lot, just as I told you before. That's why I need to have you close. I won't let anything happen during this period and what better way than to have you in the same bedroom with me?"
The only time I've ever been in Dominic's bed was when we made love. Other than that, I was never there and this for me, is so unexpected that I can't help but smile.
"You really want me in the same bedroom as you?" I ask, feeling my cheeks tingle a little.
"Yes, just so I can keep an eye on you." His voice is firm .
I nod, but sigh. "Then what was the point of taking out all my cosmetics? My dressing mirror is now empty. I could always do what I want here and then sleep in your bedroom at night."
"No. If we're doing this, we're doing it all the way, so what do you say?"
"Fine," I say to him, trying to stay composed.
He sighs with satisfaction. "Good. Now, come with me."
"Where?"
"Our bedroom. There's something I need to show you."
I follow behind him, smiling to myself again because it means so much to me that whatever he discussed with my father had an impact on him.
He opens the door, then leaves it open for me so I can walk in and this time, it feels different because it's my new bedroom.
The first thing that catches my full attention are a few of my clothes on the bed.
"Did you bring all my clothes here?" I glance in his direction.
"No, only the ones that I could see. I didn't want to touch too much of your stuff, just in case I would end up touching something private. This was just for start."
Looking over at his dressing mirror, I notice the large box right by the corner on the floor.
"I've never seen that before," I say to him, pointing at the box.
"That's where I put all your cosmetics."
I smile a little. "You make it sound like you packed everything yourself."
"I did." He firmly nods.
"Why didn't you get the butlers or the maidservants to do it?"
"No." He comes closer. "Now that you're pregnant, I'll only ask for help from others if I can't do something myself. As long as I can, I will."
My heart flutters once again and I give him a nod as our eyes lock. Just so I don't get carried away, I look to the side and clear my throat, but he speaks before I can.
"Have you ever looked inside my wardrobe?"
I look around as I think about it, then raise my eyebrows as I shake my head. "Now that you've mentioned it, I don't think I've ever done that."
He chuckles, heading over to the wardrobe to open the doors for me.
