Someone’s picking my lock,I whispered

There was a second of silence on the other end, then the rustle of him sitting up and throwing on clothes. He sounded wide awake 

ΠΟΥ

How many? Are they armed?he asked, his voice calm and steady

ד 

I only see twoI didn’t see a knife, but I don’t know.” 

Don’t cry,he soothed. Lock yourself in your room.” 

Suddenly, the camera feed went black

The front door creaked open

Footsteps echoed in the living room, growing closer. The intruder started pushing on my bedroom door, I gripped the knife, wonder- ing if I should charge out and strike first. Adrenaline made my legs tremble. I felt like the knife would slip from my sweaty palm

Then, a sudden cacophony erupted outside my door

Muffled thuds Curses mixed with cries of pain. The sound of shattering glass and things crashing to the floor

Adrian?” 

I’m here.His voice was strained, breathless. Don’t come out yet. It’ll be over in a second.” 

I wiped the sweat from my brow, my body going limp with relief as I sat on the edge of the bed

Finally, a knock on the bedroom door

I pushed aside the heavy furniture I’d used to barricade it. The living room was a disaster zone. The two burglars were on the floor, barely conscious. One of Adrian’s men was dragging them out by their ankles like sacks of potatoes

Adrian wiped the blood from his knuckles and pulled me into his arms. His coat was cold from the night air, and the faint scent of tobacco from his clothes warmed against his skin. He held me tight, burying his face in my hair and pressing a kiss to my head

One of the men with him cleared his throat. Adrianwhat do you want us to do with them?” 

Check their records. Make sure they y get put away for a long time,” Adrian said, his voice flat as he stroked the back of my head

I buried my face in his shoulder, my voice muffled. Are they your friends? Coming all the way out here this lateI should treat them to dinner sometime.” 

It’s fine,he said. Go get some rest I’m staying with you tonight.” 

The police arrived. Adrian lit a cigarette and coaxed me back into the bedroom. The low murmur of their conversation didn’t last long Soon, he was climbing into bed, wrapping his arms around me from behind 

I was still 

trembling

You’re safe now,he whispered. It won’t happen again.” 

I turned and kissed him, a desperate, frantic kiss. Adrian froze for a moment. He was usually 

ly so direct in bed, all business as he 

unbuckled his belt and pressed me down. But that night, he was uncharacteristically gentle. He just took my hands and wrapped 

them around his neck, then rolled on top of me, returning my kiss with a deep, slow passion

The autumn wind howled outside, but his body was a furnace. As his hand cupped my cheek, for a fleeting moment, I truly felt 

loved

But chewing on old memories for too long just turns them into tasteless pulp. When I was sitting across from him in his mansion

discussing the terms of our separation, I couldn’t fool myself with that sliver of sweetness anymore

He loved me the way one loves a beautiful pet. He wouldn’t touch it himself, but he couldn’t stand the thought of anyone else havi- 

ng it. That was all
