Chapter 044 - Tea Party

I sit by the windowsill in Theo’s room. It’s been two weeks since I collapsed due to pregnancy. My body is already being used to it. I no longer have music and etiquette lessons, but to pass the time, Harbin still brings me books. Tea with him has also become a common occurrence. I stretch my leg on the windowsill as I watch the setting sun. Theo will arrive soon after a quick bath, and I know what I need to do. Besides, I am his whore, and whores only do one thing. As if a trigger, the door opens and Theo comes into the room. He runs to me as if he is relieved that I am still here. He wraps his arms around me and breathes in my scent. “Did you just have a bath?” he asks. I nod. I always ensure to take a bath an hour before he arrives. I pull back from him and walk towards the bed. I am about to remove my clothes when he walks behind me and helps me undress. With my clothes on the floor, I climb to the bed and lie on it. His gaze never leaves my face and I watch him remove his clothes.
