"You're silly, I will not let you wipe this dirt with that filthy cloth, and don't even think to clean it with the dress you're wearing. It's difficult to find a suitable property..."  She barely listened what he said. She stopped dead in tracks. Time stood still and there was nothing but his face, his touch, his warmth, and his particular scent tinged with the smell of oil paints. The feeling of his fingers against her bare skin. They were warm and rougher than they looked. And his scent surrounded her. The delicious smell and touch of him blended into an intoxicating sensation. There was a spark flashing in his eyes and his pupil expanded, she had been told that it was a significant hint of attraction. His finger slowed and trailed down, rubbing the corner of her mouth softly.  "Holy hell..."He whispered a curse. Her heart skipped a beat. In a brief moment, an insane thought occurred to her. He was going t

Chapter 42

"But I can't imagine how could you ever think to eliminate someone who meant so much to you from your mind forever. I think I would be sad if someone I really love decided to destroy every good and beautiful memory about me. Even if I knew I could never meet my family again, I would always cherish my memories with them."  He sent her a lethal glare."I can't believe I'm having this conversation with you."  "Sorry, I just think memories are too precious to forget. You should hold it to your heart."  "And I think you should hold your tongue. The last bloody thing I want is your mushy opinion on my personal matters. Henceforth, you better keep your thoughts to yourself."  That was surely hurt, after sharing a moment of friendliness, like suddenly being squirted with a gush of cold water after bathing in the warm sunlight. &n

Chapter 43

Day 5 When she arrived this morning, he was standing before the lake, staring at the distance as though he was deep in thoughts. She pointedly ignored him and headed to the door, not bothering to make a polite greeting. She swore she would not say a word to him ever again. She entered the studio and changed her clothes quickly. When she was walking to the settee, something caught her eye.   A picture of a beautiful woman put on an easel next to the painting collection. Deeply fascinated, she moved closer, staring thoroughly at the painting. Although the woman in the painting held a little resemblance with him, she knew immediately who she was. She had a tender looking pair of hazel eyes. Unlike him, her whole expression was kind and gentle.  "You're right." His voice startled her all in a sudd

Day 6  Their time together would soon come to an end. He suggested her to finish the flower painting today, so she was sitting on the stool and applying color to the outlined petals. Something had changed significantly between them since yesterday. She was completely at ease with him now she dared to ask the question that rouse her curiosity so far.  "I know gentlemen practicing swordplay for exercise. My father practices boxing and fencing frequently as well, but I'm sure he cannot do what you did."  He watched her for a short while and replied bluntly."You mean, killing people."  She swallowed, trying to find a tactful choice of words."I mean... you are very well trained in... fighting art, armed and unarmed. Does your family have a military background?"  He returned his focus on the canvas.

Chapter 45

"You don't need to carry the burden forever. Anytime you feel the pain, just remember the many lives you saved, and not only in the present time. By saving them now, you also saved their future."  He had battled irrepressible guilt and uncertainty all along. He had hidden it beneath the cold surface. He never heard the opinion from another's perspective. It might not take the burden but somehow it lessened the weight. He turned his head towards her and found her watching him with a compassionate look in her eyes.  She was pure and genuine, she had never experienced such ugliness in her life. She was the bright morning sunshine and he was the black sky in the darkest hour of the night. His endless darkness would only steal her light. He had shed too much blood, his soul can never be purified. Even if they were in the same social standing, he would never fit her. She deserved a much better man. &n

Chapter 46

Amanda got their undivided attention rightaway. The other women on the table now focused solely on her in stunned surprise, nobody was able to make a reply.  A proud smile curving Amanda's lips at their expression."It was a good long time ago when he was still so young, sixteen or seventeen perhaps... I'm older than him... only by a year or two..." Amanda corrected when she saw her listeners frowning."I tell you, those days were terrific. He was one of the greatest lover I ever had."  Ava picked up her tea and took a quick, long swallow, feeling a sudden uneasiness stirred inside her.  "And he was not only prodigious in his wealth and achievement, but also in his performance and his ..." she paused deliberately to make a significant effect.".....personal attribute."  Ava

Chapter 47

"For God's sake, Betty! Amanda is a goddamn liar!"Lady Byrne shouted loudly, made Ava and Mrs. Puck nearly jump from the seat."Do you forget when she came back from London, telling everybody she met the Prince Regent at the opera, and the prince asked her out for dinner?"  Lady Byrne shook her head in great disgust."That's a lot of damn nonsense! Only a blithering idiot will ever trust her."  Stung, Mrs. Puck shut her mouth and sank to the couch. Her anxiety reduced a bit. Lady Byrne was so convinced that everything was a lie. The lady definitely knew Amanda better than her, she wouldn't judge her harshly without a good reason. Perhaps it was just one of Amanda's made up stories.  "I daresay nobody knows he is very fond of painting."Amanda knew one significant thing about him. How did she get to know such things? This was bad. Really bad. She wouldn't

Chapter 48

He frowned at her reaction. He was rather uncertain what really was going on. Her eyes wandered over his body and rested somewhere along his chest. What was the meaning of it? "What are you doing?" She asked nervously as he halted just inches away from her. "Help you to the sofa." he replied shortly as he gripped her upper arm and pulled her up. She rose from the settee, too late to realize her body was shaking like a leaf and suddenly a rain of blinding spark fell on her vision, the room was smothered by darkness. Her head crushed something sturdy and she felt a strong grip on her other arm. Everything was black for a while and when she began to regain her consciousness again the first thing she recognized was her own breath, short and unsteady, then a scent, a familiar scent of clean male skin and fresh linen, and a subtle smell of oil paint, and that warmth generated from the body holding her still. Next, she was crad

Chapter 49

"It's enough." "It's not. You're not going home before the plate is empty." It was no use denying him, and she was overwhelmingly hungry anyway, she managed to finish the meal, resisting the urge to demolish the crumble of the sandwich. She placed the empty plate on the table, took the half empty glass and drank a little. She glanced nervously when he got up and approached her. "Give me your hand." he said"Just in case you have yet to recover, I don't want you to fall on the floor." She took his hand and let him help her to get up, feeling her cheeks warm. Why did she react like a silly fool? He just wanted to help her. "I'm all right now." she looked down to hide her blushing face.  "Are you sure? Walk slowly."He released her carefully as they walked to the canvas, but he stayed close beside her

Chapter 50

"Please stop here." She exclaimed when the familiar road to home appeared in a distance. Her house was still a hundred meters meters away, but she didn't want to be seen descending from a fancy coach by anyone. The carriage drew to a halt, a moment later, the door opened and the servant appeared. "Be careful, Miss." he said politely as he helped her climb down the coach. The servant looked at the row of cottages a distance away. "Do you need me to escort you home, Miss?" She was just about to refuse his offer, when a sudden thought occurred to her. "That's very kind of you, Freddy, it's your name? Isn't it?" "Yes, Miss." Freddy followed behind her as they walked along the path. "How long have you worked for His Grace, Freddy?" she asked casually. "This is my fifth year, Miss." "I see that he treat
