ordeal the
night before. I’m sure that shit’s gonna fuck with her
for a while but I’m gonna do all that’s in my power to cut it out like a
cancer.
    "Easy." She seemed more at ease than when I
dropped her off as she clutched my arm while I drove. Maybe I was worrying for
nothing. Damn, if one morning of freedom could do that for her then I would see
that it never changed.
    "We're going shopping again today love, you need
clothes and stuff."
    "That's too much, after yesterday."   She pulled away and fussed with her seat
belt.
    "Ashley, do you have any idea how much I'm
worth?" She shook her head no, and how refreshing was that? Shit any of
the females of my past acquaintance would sell an ovary for the chance to go
shopping on Gideon Thorpe’s dime.
    "I'm worth more than you can spend in ten
lifetimes so I don't want you worrying about that stuff okay?"
    When she didn't answer I chanced a glance at her and
found her worrying her lip again. I know she wasn't accustomed to anyone
spending money on her but she would have to get used to it, I intend to spoil
the fuck out of her everyday for the rest of her life. “I don’t really know
what to buy, I’ve never…”
    “So buy everything you like I mean it Ashley if you
see something you want I want you to get it.”
    “I don’t know if I can.”
    “Fine I’ll just have to help you then.” I decided to
change the subject and asked her about school instead. That seemed to settle
her a little and by the time we pulled up to the mall she was a little more
relaxed. Nothing had been said about Cliffy, she hadn’t brought him up and I’d
be fucked if I was going to. Let’s hope this was a
case of out of sight out of mind.

 
    Our first stop was one of those young people stores
with nothing but jeans and t shirts where I had her change out of her uniform
first before we got down to some serious shopping. Then I dragged her into
every high- end store that had decent clothing in the window.
    It was almost five hours later when we returned home
laden down with shopping bags. Once again she looked like a teenaged girl, her
eyes alight and bursting at the seams to go through her loot again.
    "Go ahead babe, I'll start dinner, come find me
in the kitchen when you're done."
    She kissed me again for the one-hundredth time before
heading off to our bedroom. Our bedroom, I liked the sound of that. Where
before I guarded my freedom like Cerberus at the gates of hades, I was more
than happy to see it go down the drain, she fucking owned me. Completely and
irrevocably, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Chapter 9

 
    She came downstairs not even ten minutes after
disappearing with her loot, all flushed and happy. And just the sight of her
made me smile. She looked so young and carefree here, the way she was supposed
to.
    "That was quick." I kissed the top of her
head my hands were dirty since I'd been marinating salmon steaks for the grill.
    "I started to try them on, but then I missed you
so I came back down." Shit, could she be any sweeter?
    "Hop on up here then and keep me company, then
after dinner you can model for me okay baby."
    "Okay." She blushed and grinned as she
hopped up onto the counter, barley making it without my help. She was so tiny,
my heart clutched, I could've lost her before I found her. Not now Gideon, just
concentrate on making her happy. That’s your new mission in life don’t let that
twisted fuck intrude here. This is your first real night together in her new home
you have to make it special.
    "Can I help?"
    "Nope, I've got it covered. I'm just grilling salad's already made. I would offer you a glass of wine but
I don't want to corrupt you...yet." I smirked at her and she blushed.
    "In Europe I can have wine."
    "We'll talk about that when we're there."
She pouted at me, her bottom lip just enticing me to take a bite.
    "Ummmm cherry. You trying to get me to eat your
lips off?" She giggled as my tongue licked across her lips, shoulders
scrunching
