My Fiancée Hates Me

It was nearing evening when we returned to the hospital. Garett had waited in front of the hospital and held out his arms. There seemed to be a silent agreement between Vance and Garett when he placed me into Garett's arms. I ended up being carried all the way to my room.

Vance returned to his own estate right after handing me to Garett.

Garett brought me to my room in silence and only handed me my nightgown after setting me down on the bed. I removed my clothes and changed into my nightgown.

He sighed.

"Even if I am your lover, I thought women would be a little more embarrassed about stripping in front of a man," he finally said.

"I am used to changing in front of many servants...I thought that since you handed me my nightgown, you wanted me to change right away," I said.

"You could have waited for me to leave the room..."

"You are my lover, so I thought that it did not matter," I said.

Lover is a pretty nice excuse...You can get away with most things by saying that.

He pressed me lightly to the bed and had me lie down as he covered me with a blanket.

"Rest for now...Your nonsensical banter will have to wait for later," Garett said.

"...Are you going to leave?" I asked.

"Do you want me to?" Garett asked.

"The room is a bit lonely after you leave. If you could stay a bit longer..."
