credit card and ID.”
    Which
are on the plane. Since we’re flying private, I didn’t need them
for the airport. Matt was being so sweet that I didn’t think I’d
need them tonight, either. I should’ve known not to trust him. I
turn and bat my eyes at him, knowing full well it won’t work, but
trying anyway.
    “ Matt,
can you please pay for my room? I left my stuff on the plane.”
    “ Not
a chance in Hell.”
    “ I
seriously hate you sometimes.”
    “ I
promise you’ll be loving me again once we get up to the room,” he
says with a smirk.
    “ Not
a fucking chance in Hell,” I retort, adding that extra word to make
him know I’m serious.
    “ Beggars
can’t be choosers.”
    “ I’ll
just sleep on a couch down here. Have a nice night.”
    “ You
can’t do that.”
    “ Yes,
she can,” the woman behind the desk says, smiling at me.
    “ Women.
I don’t even know why I try.”
    “ Because
sometimes you actually remember I’m worth it.”
    He
closes his eyes and I see his jaw clench. It’s like he’s
physically holding himself back from saying something. After a few
deep breaths, he opens his eyes, and turns to the woman. “Please
check me in. Our bags should’ve been delivered already.”
    I
watch as he studiously ignores me, and then just nods at me before
getting on the elevator. I was so excited about spending the night
with him, but now I’m just so exhausted I can barely keep my eyes
open. I make my way to the couch and curl up on one end. My eyes
flutter closed before I can even get comfortable, and I fall asleep.
    The
next thing I know, I’m being lifted by a strong pair of arms. I
don’t freak out, because I recognize those arms. I’m not awake
enough to fight him, and honestly, I don’t really want to fight. I
never want to fight with him, but I can’t just sit back and let him
disrespect me. I won’t be a weak, cowering girl ever again.
    “ Matt,”
I whisper in to his chest.
    “ Yeah,
Rei. I got you.”
    “ Why
aren’t you asleep?”
    “ You
think I could sleep while you were down here on the couch?”
    “ Why
are you so mean to me?”
    “ Because
I’m a bastard.”
    “ Yeah,
but tonight you’re my bastard.”
    “ I
am,” he says with a small laugh as he carries me into the room.
    He
sets me on the edge of a bathtub that’s right in the middle of the
floor. I see all of the bubbles and smile. He made me a bath. It’s
then that I notice what he’s wearing. Or rather what he’s not
wearing. He came down to get me in just a pair of blue boxer briefs.
    “ Matt!
You came down to get me like that?”
    “ What?
My junk is covered,” he says with a smile, before unzipping my
dress.
    “ Barely.”
    He
just chuckles as he finishes undressing me, and places me in the tub.
“Don’t worry, Rei. Every inch of it belongs to you. So unless
you’re sharing, you really shouldn’t trouble yourself with what
I’m wearing.”
    “ That
was the worst rhyme in the history of the written word.”
    “ In
case you didn’t know it, I am indeed a poet.”
    “ Stop.
Oh my God. Just stop.”
    “ If
I didn’t know better, I’d think my rhymes were making you
wetter.”
    “ Off
button. Where the hell is your off button?” I ask as he climbs into
the tub with me.
    “ I
can’t believe you’re giving me the diss when I just want to give
you some bliss.”
    He
lifts me over him and sets me to kneeling over his face, while he
lowers himself so that his mouth is lined right up with my sex. I
should tell him again how lame his rhyming is, but I’m too busy
thinking about what he’s about to do to me.
    “ Since
you don’t like my rhymes, I’ll just have to think of something
more fun to do with my tongue.”

    “Our rooms are very
simple,” Maria tells me as she leads me to mine. She’s the girl I
met earlier. Mother formally introduced us when she called her back
to the office. She told her I came to them for Sanctuary, and she has
granted it to me. It’s somewhat
