Chapter 350
She tried to shift, and a sharp pain in her lower back made her gasp. “Ouch.”
Julian was instantly by her side. “Where does it hurt? Let me rub it for you.”
He rubbed his hands together to warm them before sliding them under the covers to massage her lower back.
The contact of his large hands on her skin sent a shiver through her. She looked
up at him.
“This is your fault, Sienna grumbled.
“You’re right. It’s all my fault,” Julian admitted readily. “I’m sorry. Maybe I’ll go a little slower next time. Be gentler. How does that
sound?”
His words sent a flush of heat through her as she remembered the night before.
She’d never imagined this refined, gentle man could whisper such filthy, incredible things in her ear. He had been relentless, his hunger seemingly impossible to satisfy
There won’t be a next time,” Sienna retorted, though there was no heat in her glare.
Julian paused, then said with perfect sincerity, “But I asked you ten times last night, and you said you wanted it. You said it felt good. I thought I was doing a decent job. It would be a shame if there was no next time, don’t you think?”
Sienna’s eyes went wide. He was saying all this with a completely straight face. Did he feel no shame?
Julian, you.“Sienna stammered.
“Okay, okay, I’ll stop teasing. Let’s get some food in you.”
Julian helped her sit up against the headboard and began to feed her the porridge. “How is it

I did. I’m glad you like it. I also had your people call a doctor. They should be here soon to check on you, make sure there are no side effects from the drug, Julian explained
Sienna was about to say it wasn’t necessary, but she knew Lana and the others were worried, so she didn’t object.
“Sienna, Eleanor Yeast is dead.” Julian said.
Sienna was only slightly surprised. She’d expected it, just not so soon,
“Did you do it?” She asked.
Julian nodded. “I did. But not entirely on my own.”
“I see. She got what she deserved. What are you doing here anyway? I didn’t know you were leaving the country.”
Julian met her clear gaze, his expression earnest and completely sincere. “Because I missed you.”
Sienna paused, her gaze dropping to her lap. “Mm.”
“When are you planning on going back?” Julian asked.
‘It’ll be a while. I still have things to take care of here.”
They fell into an easy conversation. Before they knew it, the doctor arrived. After a quick examination, he confirmed she was perfectly fire, with no trace of the drug left in her system.
After Sienna had eaten, Julian began massaging her shoulders again. His gaze drifted down to her stomach, and a flicker of guilt crossed his face.
He had been so lost in the moment
ent last night. Someone had knocked on the door, probably to bring them protection.
