His late and meaningless apologies aren’t more than an irritating noise in the background.

I’m smiling when I step outside to meet Nick. He’s pacing, the worry is obvious in his tense shoulders. I walk fast until I reach him. He wraps me in his arms before I can say a word.

“Are you okay?” he whispers.

Nodding, I cradle his face and kiss him slowly, sweetly. His eyes are shining with happiness and love when our lips part.

“Hey,” he says, grinning.

“Hey, Handsome,” I murmur, licking his bottom lip.

“Let’s get you out of here,” he offers, after glaring at the prison behind me.

“Yes, Sir,” I purr.

He looks at me with a surprised face. “Who are you and what did you do to Mistress Sage?”

I laugh. “She’s gotten bored of being in control,” I say and outstretch my hand for a handshake, “I’m Veronica. Nice to meet you.”
