When Claire woke up the next morning she felt disoriented and out of balance and two things immediately made themselves known. The first was that she was in a room she didn't recognise and the second was an unfamiliar ache between her legs. Hot memories quickly flashed through her mind right then and she groaned in dismay and slid further into the silky soft covers.

After some moments she sat up and looked around. The room took her breath away. Last night, rather earlier that morning she'd been drawn too tight to appreciate its simple elegant beauty. As soon as she had entered the room she had quickly gotten into bed and had instantly fallen asleep.

The room was luxurious, with a king sized bed, covered with an earthy brown silk bed cover and sheets made from the same fabric that felt soft and wonderful on her skin. The bed was framed by a big cream leather headboard. On both sides of the bed there were twin white and gold bedside tables with off white stylish lamps. On the wall to her left there hung a huge intricately designed golden mirror, a plush dark rug covered the floor and opulent light brown curtains adorned the huge window overlooking the backyard. The room was fabulous.

She got up and looked down at her blouse, it was wrinkled beyond repair. Since she hadn't counted on sleeping over she hadn't brought any clothes so she had slept in it. Planning on hanging the blouse in the bathroom while she took a shower, she got up and took it off and was left standing in only her panties. She hoped the stream from the shower would help with some of the wrinkles. She looked at herself in the mirror and wondered how it was that she could still look exactly the same when everything had changed.

There was a knock outside her door and before she could make herself decent it quickly swung open. She gasped and quickly brought her blouse to her chest modestly covering herself. Levi walked in and paused, his gaze dark and impenetrable. She hadn't counted on seeing him again so soon. She hadn't had nearly enough time to recover from their last meeting, let alone process and come to terms with all of it.

She tried so hard to keep from fidgeting, it was highly uncomfortable standing there virtually naked in front of him. And when his eyes flashed in that liquid fire of desire that was now so familiar to her, Claire felt her treacherous body instantly heat up and make itself ready for him. "Pam isn't coming back today. I've got back to back evening functions and I need you to stay here for the next two days."

Stay here!! With him! In the same house!! Was he out of his mind. Obviously, she couldn't. She opened her mouth to refuse but before she could utter a word he said, "Please!" His warm raspy voice was like a caress on her skin. And she almost cried out loud. How could she possibly refuse him. "Alright." She said and he nodded and quietly left the room.

Claire took a deep breath and stepped into an equally luxurious bathroom. As she took a shower thoughts of Levi and what had happened between them flooded her mind once more and this time she didn't push them away. It had been probably only sex to him but it had rocked her world and transformed her completely. There was now no denying what she'd known all along but had stubbornly refused to acknowledge, even to herself. She was undoubtedly in love with him, had been since the first time he'd kissed her. Maybe even before that.

Last night he had ruthlessly taken her. Using his superior strength and will he had mercilessly claimed her and made her, his. She belonged to him now, bonded to him on a primitive, molecular level. She knew it, there was no getting around it and from the look in eyes just now as they'd possessively ran over her, he definitely knew it too. She felt raw, vulnerable and exposed as she anticipated what would happen next, it anything at all.

After her shower she wore the same clothes she had worn the day before. The steam had done little to help with the wrinkles but there was nothing else she could do. She braced herself for another encounter with Levi as she made her way to the living room. She breathed a sigh of relief when she came across Lauren who was still in her pjs, sitting alone on the couch watching cartoons.

"Good morning." Claire said her voice light and cheerful and the little girl beamed up at her.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmrCWOFYQY
"Claire you're finally awake." Lauren said and came over to her for a quick hug.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ770Vlo2hIP
"I wanted to come wake you up earlier but daddy said not to disturb you." She added.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLQKDsHMY0
Claire rubbed Lauren's head and smiled, the love she felt for her shining in her eyes. "Where is your daddy?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYfwu4tUQ4
"He's in his office. He usually works there early in the mornings."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBAgTT1kZB
"Would you like some breakfast?" Claire asked and Lauren have her a big 'yes.'
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33MGXpqZiL
Claire, with the help of Lauren who told her where what was, quickly become familiar with the big modern kitchen. She made waffles, bacon, sausage, hashbrowns and eggs, some buttered toast and southern biscuits. She squeezed some oranges to make fresh juice. As she served Lauren, Levi walked in. As the first time she had come to his house he was fresh from the shower, in blue jeans and a t-shirt. When his eyes landed on hers she quickly looked away, unable to meet his knowing gaze.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUOzHfMtuQ
"Would you like some breakfast?" She asked him.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd2xtuNQgi
He fondly ruffled his daughter's hair and sat down. "Sure."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoBtLXfpou
Claire walked over to Lauren and cut her waffles and sausage into bite sizes. "Daddy, Claire made some biscuits for you. I told her you like them." Lauren said enthusiastically between bites.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo98pMNCRU
Levi looked up at Claire, she blushed and looked away again. She poured him a cup of strong black coffee remembering how he liked it and placed it in front of him along with a big helping of food on his plate. She sat next to Lauren and they were both facing him. She had prepared a plate for herself but with much smaller potions on it. Lauren, bless her little heart chatted heavily unaware of the blistering tension between her and Levi. Claire watched him eat and clean out his plate. Afterwards he grudgingly said, "It was good."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0GiyiDr0X
Claire hid a smile at his compliment although he'd seemed loath to say it. Lauren had also finished eating, "It was very yummy Claire. The biscuits were my favorite. They are way better than Pam's." Lauren said in honest appreciation. Claire unconsciously stroked Lauren's cheek and laughed gently, "Thank you darling. I'm glad you liked them."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMOjtPTMB7
Levi leaned back on his chair, openly studying her. A dark intense hunger swirling in his eyes. Claire quickly got up and started clearing the table and Lauren eagerly helped. As Claire was putting the dishes away in the dishwasher she felt his hot gaze on her, following her every movement.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTiJ0By6iF
"I'm afraid we're out of groceries." He said and paused. Claire turned and faced him, wiping her hands on the apron she was wearing. "It's Pam's responsibility to buy some. I'd do it myself but I have to getting going. I'll be back a little late again tonight." Levi added while sipping his coffee.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpbOapdlap
"I'll pass by the shops after I get some clothes from home." she said.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5tmTr2X6O
"I can get someone to drive you around." He offered.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXziP6qHIhQ
She laughed lightly, "Thanks but I'll walk to my house and get my car. It's not far."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTJNjNFW0m
He nodded and reached inside his jean pocket, produced a black leather wallet and handed her his bank card. He then got up and kissed Lauren on the cheek asking her to be good for Claire. And just like that he was gone and for the first time that morning Claire felt herself relax from all the strain she'd been under, wondering if being around him would always feel like she'd just finished a short distance sprint.

After cleaning the kitchen and giving Lauren a bath they walked hand in hand to her house. The weather was surprisingly cool and a light soft breeze that carried a sweet scent made the journey much more pleasant as Lauren regaled her with uncomplicated childhood stories. When they got to her cottage Claire informed Sally that she wouldn't be home for a couple of days and Sally regarded her curiously when she told her where she would be.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogOWN7oLJt
She dodged her persistent questions and assured her she would be alright. She changed into light weight jeans and a cool cotton shirt. They got her car and drove to town. Before leaving Levi's house Claire had checked to see what was missing in the pantry and complied a list. At the local shops they brought all they needed and she made sure she didn't over spend. Although she did end up buying some beautiful flowers that she thought would make his home even more lovelier.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERW5GTpUaQ
The day quickly went by. Claire made Lauren a light snack of fruits and yogurt while she made dinner. She diligently prepared pot roast and a colourful side salad. They had dinner and to her delight Lauren thoroughly enjoyed it. They were in her bedroom with Claire tucking her in when Levi came home although neither of them heard him.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvRxDrI0ov
"Claire where's your mommy?" Lauren suddenly asked as Claire bent down to give her a goodnight kiss.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66IQFxZD8c
Claire froze, "She died a while ago."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaXC3TsaYk
"Mine died too. Daddy said she was very pretty and that I look just like her. I don't remember her." Lauren said, a sad haunting look in her eyes.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIdYvN6Avg
“If you look like her then she must have been absolutely gorgeous.” Claire said, injecting a lightness to the suddenly somber mood.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8OHBHvCLL
A moment of silence passed and Lauren looked up at Claire and added "I wish you were my mommy." She said her lower lip trembling, a deep longing evident in her voice. Claire felt her heart cry out and failed to think of anything appropriate or consoling to say to Lauren. What could she say? That she wished for the same thing? That more than anything she wished that Levi would love her even half as much as she loved him? She couldn’t, so she simply leaned down and hugged her, whispering unintelligible words of comfort.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpC5yHBj60I
When she straightened and turned she suddenly saw Levi leaning against the wall, just outside the bedroom, hidden from Lauren's view. Claire was so startled that her heat almost stopped beating. He was stealthy and deadly silent, like a dangerous predator prowling in the darkness stalking its ignorant prey. The sensation of being the center focus of that powerful determination made the hairs on her back stand and caused goosebumps to appear on her skin. Claire swallowed nervously at his unreadable gaze, his midnight eyes mysterious and guarded. She quickly looked away and when she dared to look back he was gone.

After she had kissed Lauren goodnight she went into the kitchen and found Levi leaning against the kitchen counter. She knew he had heard what Lauren had said but she couldn't tell what he was thinking or how he felt about it. As she walked in her eyes met his and she held her breath.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQedWDApOgM
"I ... left you some supper in the oven." She said.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUmkLFLPkr
"Thanks."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3UjTV8dd3
Another silent heated moment passed between them. She couldn't bear it much longer.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrPWrFQUnR
"Alright, well good night." She said and turned to leave.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3331aYFIKJ
But his question stopped her dead in her tracks, "Did I hurt you last night?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCz8R8ob9r
She swallowed and turned around, "No. You didn't."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YQDeRFgrV
He gave her a skeptical look. “You were so tight, dammit. I must have hurt you.”
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxD04VnZ1M
Claire tucked her hair behind her ears as an intense blush covered her face, "Just a little at first."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTRiO02jZt
He walked over to her and put his hands on her waist and heat immediately transferred from his hands to her skin. "How come you were still a virgin Claire!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpUuJ7QpgA
She clenched her hands into fists by her side to keep from touching him. She licked her lower lip and looked away from his probing eyes. She shifted her weight from one foot to the other, "Just because ..." she trailed when he brought her closer to him. 'I've always wanted it to be you.' her mind screamed but of course she couldn't tell him that.
