holding me until it subsided. I was limp in his arms, exhausted
and drained. Wrapping me in the duvet he climbed in behind me and held me until my heart slowed
Adam whispered in my ear;
“Hush now baby, we will find him we will find your brother sleep now Leah I will take care of
everything” My body relaxed and I allowed the darkness to take me
The smell of coffee woke me; I was disorientated for a moment then remembered the events of the
night before. The memory of the sex made my insides clench, however the confession that followed
soon put a dampener on it, I hope I didn’t kill the moment.
I wrapped myself in my robe and followed the smell to the kitchen; Adam was staring at my
paintings. The context of the paintings would now be blatantly obvious to him; he turned to me
opening his arms for me to step inside their warmth.
“Oh Leah my poor girl, the pain you have suffered I can see it so clearly in this room, I can’t believe
you have had to carry this alone for so long” he kissed me tenderly; I raised my face so he could kiss
me properly. We stood for some time caressing each other’s mouths, no lust this time. The kiss was
about opening up exposing our souls; I breathed a sigh as he released me
“You don’t know what it means to have someone take me seriously Adam; I got so used to being
closed off. It is such a rush letting go of it all, you do believe me don’t you?”
He pushed me away a little so he could speak clearly enunciating every word
“Of course I do, no one could argue with the evidence here” he waved his arms at my paintings, “We
now need to start finding out what happened. Firstly I want to look at your mums file, Rob could
release it for me what do you think?” I nodded then remembered Richard had tried
“That’s what Richard had been doing, sorry I forgot to tell you yesterday, he was threatening to
expose who I was, he had some crazy idea your family had engineered the file disappearing. He tried
to get hold of it but it was gone, he was meeting someone the morning he went missing, a friend he
said who could get it for him” Adam looked concerned
“When is Lucinda back with Rob do you know?” I shook my head I had no idea he wanted to call Rob
but I persuaded him to hang fire, Lucy would not thank me for interrupting a romantic encounter.
I had slept in so only had a couple of hours before the matinee, I showered and dressed .Adam took
me out for lunch then dropped me off at the Theatre promising to be outside when I was done. It
felt so natural being with him he kissed me goodbye. A kiss that had my temperature soaring and my
stomach churning again, he moaned as he reluctantly released me. His hand stroked my sore cheek
and I held it to my face savouring the feel of him, closing his eyes he made me a promise;
“Leah now I have you, you won’t be able to escape, there may come a point when the past is all
churned up where you feel like retreating. It is not going to happen where you go I go, this is it from
now on, are you ready for this?” I nodded tears burning my eyes he smiled then let me go
“Until later baby, I will wait here for you, oh and if you have to climb up your dancer friend again
make sure he knows who has you climbing over him naked won’t you” I giggled at his frankness then
ran inside out of the rain.
The show went smoothly, it was our last performance so I had a few weeks off now, a good thing as
work was busy and if Adam kept his word, we would be deep in police files in our spare time. As long
as we left some time over for sex I was happy. Wow the sex was good, only twice granted but I was
sure we could manage a couple of attempts tonight despite my aching body.
The Mercedes was parked outside Adam was leaning casually against the car waiting looking
decidedly delicious. Chris had walked out with me and I noticed Adam bristle, I hugged Chris
goodbye and threw myself very unashamedly at Adam taking him by surprise.
