"Mai how did you get here?" Han Bing asked in all seriousness staring at Mai."Remember when she went to her father?" Zheng Li interrupted, Han bing Head swiveled till he was now staring at Zheng Li.
"Yes" Han bIng said with a curt nod.
"Well, I asked Mai if she wanted to meet us up and she agreed. Then I proceeded to put together a plan with her father that would make it all possible and here we all are" Zheng Li said nodding his head as if he was listing off each action that he had done.
"But what exactly was the plan?" Han bing asked in a huff, still annoyed that he didn"t really understand the full picture.
"Well she was supposed to stay at her father"s manor until right before he proceeded to give her over to a caravan coming this way that would be overlooked" Zheng Li replied slightly quieter this time as if knowing that telling them it was a slave caravan was a terrible idea.
"And the aphrodisiac?" Han Bing asked while his eyes narrowed at Zheng Li.
"That I have no idea… did something happen at your father"s manor Mai?" Zheng Li asked while turning towards her concern written all over his face.
"Yes, there was a guy who threatened me greatly" Mai whispered looking downwards "then we went to a inn for the last night. Someone came into my room when I was sleeping and that"s all I can remember."
Han bings fist clenched as he looked her over again with so much concern in his eyes that Mai felt instantly better. Her worries about him telling her to leave had disappeared in a blink of an eye. Mai scowled at herself for thinking such thoughts in the first place.
"Mai" Han bIng cried out as he clutched her close into his body.
Mai could feel the rapid beating of his heart. The warmth coming from his body comforting her own as she laid her head against his chest and for the first time in the past 2 weeks felt a sense of comfort.
"I missed you" Mai whispered to Han Bing looking up from his chest into his eyes. "Please don"t tell me to leave you again. I just want to be with you."
Han Bing silently pet Mai"s hair in a slow motion as he stared just as dumbstruck he was the day he first saw her outside of his manor. She had seen ever ugly thing that had come from being in contact with him yet she still wanted to stay. Han Bing couldn"t help the fluttering in his heart as he gently kiss her on the lips.
"I promise" Han Bing said back to her.
Zheng Li let out a little cough before Han Bing lost control and carried her back upstairs to continue there evening activities.
"You must be starving Mai" Zheng Li asked Mai as he silently chuckled at their behavior.
At that moment Mai"s stomach growled even louder than before leaving no room for doubt if she was hungry.
"I got some fruit for this occasion" Zheng Li said triumphantly.
Mai"s eyes grew round, while swallowing multiple times in order to speak. "That sounds delicious" Mai mumbled out walking towards the direction that Zheng Li had gone.
The 3 of them sat in silence as Mai did her best not to wolf down the entire table that was full of fruits. She noticed both sets of eyes on her as she constantly grabbed more and more fruit. Didn"t they know that she hadn"t eaten much of anything for 5 days? Obviously she was starving.
After Mai filled her belly full, Han Bing clasped his arms around her and held her against him almost as if he expected her to disappear at any moment.
"Mai, would you be willing to make lunch?" Zheng Li asked excitedly ignoring the fact that they were in there own little world.
Mia nodded her head just as enthusiastic as Zheng Li had asked "of course."
"I never got to eat any of your dishes, the smell almost drove me crazy" Zheng Li said while licking his lips in wonder.
Han Bing laughed as he looked over to Zheng Li "of course you haven"t had any, there would be none left for the rest of us"
"I believe that was something you did the first time you tried a dish not me!" Zheng Li cried out as he looked at Mai. His face had a look similar to look at the abuse I have to deal with.
Mai laughed at their playful banter. "This reminds me of back on Earth with my mom and dad" Mai thought to herself. For the first time that she had been here she felt the warmth of a family that had been missing. That longing part of her heart seemed to settle down as she looked over both of them with a smile on her face.
"What should I make than" Mai asked the 2 men in front of her. Mai had her eyes closed but a light blush on her cheeks from the compliments; It didn"t help the situation that Han Bing was pushed up behind her. Mai"s face grew more flushed as she wondered what types of activities they had done last night.
Han Bing groaned out when he saw how cute she was acting.
Mai felt Han Bings legs shift beside her as something hard momentarily was pushed against her bottom. Mai blinked in surprise as she realized that he was very much ready to continue what they had done last night.
"Still don"t remember anything that happened last night?" Han Bing whispered into Mai"s ear.
The huskiness of his voice made Mai go weak in the legs while her heart accelerated. The soreness from the night before had lone gone away and left in its wake desire for the man behind her.
Mia whimpered as she quietly said "no"
Han Bings traced his fingers over Mai"s robe, rubbing her body up and down in slow sensual circles.
"We will have to change that" Han Bing growled out.
