Chapter 307: A Surprise

Demetri walked out of the shower to find his wife missing from the bed and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafting through the air. Walking outside, he smiled as he watched his wife sitting on the kitchen countertop with an apple in her hand.

"Where did the sunrise today? My kitten is having starting the day without a sugar rush?"

Nora grinned and shrugged as she bit into the apple in her hand and leaned back," I wanted to surprise you. So surprise. Have the coffee and tell me if I’ve made it according to your taste.."

Demetri walked towards her as he threw the towel aside and quickly tapped her nose," You look like Eve tempting Adam to sin with that apple..."

Nora laughed and with a flourish, took another bite, letting the sweetness linger on her lips, her gaze never leaving Demetri’s. She watched as his eyes heated up and raised her brows to him challengingly.

Demetri chuckled and quickly stole a kiss from her lips, his hands on her thighs, ready to step closer when she brought the apple between them and rolled her eyes at him," I made coffee for you. You have to drink that."

"I’d rather have you." Demetri protested.

Nora giggled and narrowed her eyes at him as he stepped back and sipped the coffee, only to cough and almost spit it out. Nora laughed and jumped off the countertop as she sympathized with him," Oops. Did I make the coffee too strong?"

Demetri shook his head and glared at the distasteful liquid in the cup," You call that coffee? It’s sugar syrup with a hint of coffee."

"How can you say that? That is the taste of my love for you."

"More like your love for sugar. Kitten, I’m an old man, if I take you love in this form, I’ll turn diabetic soon. Your sweet kisses will suffice if you want me to taste your love." Demetri sighed as he moved towards the coffee maker, to make himself a fresh pot... without the sugar killing him.

Laughing, Nora obstructed his way," Fine fine, I’m sorry. I was just teasing you. There’s your real coffee."

Grabbing another cup that she had hidden in the microwave, she placed it into his hand and frowned," Here’s your bitter coffee."

Demetri looked down at the cup that his wife was offering and then at the innocent face before taking the plunge, hopefully it was a decent coffee this time.

As he took the first sip, his eyes widened in surprise. She’d made it exactly the way he did.

"Thank you. This is perfect." Finally, as they sat down for breakfast, Nora sighed," I can’t believe I’m going to be back at university to only sit for the exams. What happened to extra credits? I mean really, all they needed was a large funding from my uncle and they agreed to let me back in through the back door?"

"You’ve already proven yourself. It was not your fault that everything happened. And they have agreed to let you sit for the exams, but you’ll have to earn the credits, kitten. It’s just that you’ve been given some extra time. The next few months are going to be full of studying."

"Tsk tsk. I’m not worried. I’ve got this hot professor at home..."

Demetri shook his head at her antics and stood up, walking around the small table and leaned down, close to her ear," Well, you’ll need to pay the professor..."

His intoxicating scent assaulted her senses and as the man’s robe split apart, Nora lost her direction of thought and gulped.

Demetri smiled. He liked surprising her too. And she had not been expecting that he would surprise her in the middle of breakfast.

"You... When did you get that?"

Nora asked as she pointed at the small tattoo on his chest, the same place as her own tattoo. She’d definitely not seen that earlier.

Demetri chuckled and taking her hand, brought it to him, letting her hand slide under the edge of the robe," It is not permanent yet. But what do you think?" The words ’only hers’ had been written in the same was as hers and she could not help but grin.

"Its perfect. Are you going to get it done?"

"Hmm. I’m thinking it." Demetri answered.

Her hand continued to caress his skin, making him interested in other things and he quickly caught her wrist," You are too dangerous kitten. We have to go soon."

Nora pouted," It’s your fault. You do things that make me want you."

Demetri’s lips lifted in a smirk at her complaint as he quickly gave her a hard kiss and stepped back," I like making things difficult for you. Now come on, get ready. I’ll drop you off at the Uni and once your paperwork is complete. I might have a surprise for you."

Nora’s eyes lit up at that. "A surprise? Is it a Lunch-quickie?"

Demetri laughed at that and shook his head," If you’re a naughty girl, then maybe we can add something like that. But for now, a quickie is not on the lunch menu."

Nora pouted, but immediately got to her feet," I’ll get ready now. But I am warning you, Demetri Frost, if the surprise is at least not on par with a quickie, you will find that all your coffee beans have suddenly been soaked in my love."

With his eyes twinkling, Demetri shrugged his shoulders and called out," Nothing is on par with a quickie I can give you kitten."

Turning around, she made a face at the man, teasing him before quickly running away as he threatened to bite the tongue that she was showing him.

Demetri watched her run into the room and shook his head with a sigh. How was it possible to fall for someone every day? But that was exactly how it was. He’d never know what would come into her head next.

He glanced at the abandoned ’sugar syrup’ cup in the corner and gently took another sip. He didn’t mind the extra love. Not at all.
