Two months later

"Go fish" I tell him when I don't have the sort that he asked me. Colt and I are playing go fish, it's our third game this evening and the clock is already going to strike midnight. Over the last two months Colt has become my bodyguard\best friend. It appears that he doesn't want to leave just yet, not when my cookies are so good. He's insane about them. "Do you have any threes?" I ask him quietly and his face falls when he hands me the card that he has just picked up and I smirk when it gives me all four threes and I put them all aside.

"Do you have any queens?" I ask him and he shakes his head as he was taking a drink from his glass. I fish a card and then wait for him to ask. Colt has never been a fan of chess, not like him but he does like playing with cards and that is what we do every night. It has become our routine for the past two months which I don't mind. The time has passed rather quickly for the two of us. "Do you have any sevens?" He asks me.

"Go fish" I say. We finish the game and when it's over and he has won, again we go into the living room and sit on the couch. Colt is rather good at playing card, though I think it has something to do with the fact that he cheats but I've never been able to prove that he's cheating. "I'm going to watches something, care to join me?" He says and wiggles his eyebrows at me which only makes me roll my eyes at what he means.

For the past two months Colt has been trying to get me to sleep with him, unsuccessfully of course as I need to remind him that I'm married and uninterested in him like that. Sighing I stand up from the couch. "No thank you, I'm going to the garden" I tell him with a soft smile on my face as he groans but I don't wait for him to answer as I go to the door and leave the guest apartment, leaving him alone there but that doesn't matter since he has the TV and enough to eat to satiny him.

Colt is the one that loves eating all the time and he gets hungry every half an hour which is pretty funny to me as I think he sleeps in the kitchen now to get food when he wakes up in the night. I shake my head as I walk the hallways that I now know. It took some time and Colt annoyance when I got lost but I've officially been able to find my way around this mansion and I know where the garden and Sebastian's office is. Anything else, I've no clue so I mainly stick to these two places when I leave the guests floor.

Walking outside into the snow and allowing myself to feel the cold of the air. Winter came pretty early this year and it only reminds that the year is soon to be over and that means the deal will be too and I can finally get my life back and move on. I sit down on the bench that is in the garden after I've brushed away the light snow that was on top of it and even when I'm shivering, I find myself enjoying being here even when it's freezing.

Closing my eyes and allowing myself to enjoy the fresh and cold air with a smile on my face. The garden has become my favorite place and I come here every single night and as the moon hangs in the sky I can feel how calm and relaxing everything is. Barely any sounds come to my ears and I like that, it is just me alone here among the snow and calmness. Things have changed for the last two months. I've grown and become better and the person I was is not who I am now. And I feel better for the one that I am today.

Sitting here has always been the one thing that I enjoy most in the world and even when it's cold and my fingers and toes (since I'm not wearing shoes) are red and too cold, I stay here a couple of minutes longer. Just to enjoy all that nature has to offer and the cold is just one of that and that is all right. I don't know for how long I've been here but once I'm shivering to the point that my whole body is so cold, I stand up and head back inside to the warmth that awaits me there.

Once I'm inside I start walking the hallways until I reach his office. That room has been one that I've visited a couple of times and when I say couple I mean a lot of times. I never go inside, just stay outside the door and wait. I'm not sure exactly what I am waiting for but I feel like that is my husband, Sebastian King. Somehow even after two months of not seeing him or hearing his voice, my body longs for him and it craves for him to be here.

It would appear that my feelings are the only thing that have remained the same and the romantic feelings that I have for him are still inside me and they wait to be let out the moment that I see him. However, there is another part of me that aches to see him, that he will reject me and cast me aside like if I were nothing. It pains me to think that he might have some other woman with him when he comes back and it pains me that he might not care for me anymore which I know he did before. But, I will just have to see when he does get back which is... well in a week.
