Author's note: The picture is of Amari.

Amari drove me and Isaiah back to the Palace then returned for the rest. I couldn't believe what had just happened. Was that my command that made that happen? If so, why was Viktor freaking out?

I was in the shower again before I realized I had already taken one. I wanted to wear something nice for Viktor so I went through my closet.

I put on a floral print cutout ruffle hem dress with some black high heels. It would be another three hours before he got here so I decided to take a nap.

Wake up. I'm almost there.

I'm awake.

He chuckled.

I went to the bathroom and washed my face and brushed my teeth, getting ready for him. I wasn't sure who was home but after healing those women and children, I was in the mood to be with my husband.

He arrived ten minutes later and I pounced on him.

What are you wearing?

Something special for you.

He held me with both of my legs around his waist and walked me up to my bedroom while I kissed him.

You're all worked up.

Only for you honey.

I want you to leave that dress on and those heels.

I took my panties off and then pushed him onto the bed. Our lovemaking was frenzied. No position was good enough. No kiss long enough and no thrust deep enough.

By the time we were finished, we were both well sated. Lying in each other's arms, we didn't feel the need to be anywhere else. I was glad he came. This right here was exactly what I needed to feel better.

"I don't want to be apart from you anymore," I said.

"I feel the same way. There's an emptiness when you are gone," he said. "Now that we know, we won't have this problem in the future. We'll always be together unless something major happens,"

"Major like what?" I asked.

"I don't know. I can't predict the future," he said. Where are those blueprints?"

"I think we left them downstairs," I said.

"Take me to them," he said.

I brought him down into the dungeons and then into the room where we found the women.

"The blueprints are there on the floor," I said.

The room had a stench I didn't smell before. I was so concerned about the women.

"And this is where you found them?" He asked.

Yes," I said.

"And then you healed them in the hospital? Yes Joyana, I was listening in," he said.

"Yes," I said.

"But this here is marked in red. I don't see any other special markings on this blueprint," he said.

"As a precaution, would you mind searching? I'll come with you, I just won't enter any rooms," I said.

There were bedrooms, bathrooms, a library and even another office.

"The office upstairs had a lot of false bottoms. Maybe you'll find something in there," I said.

That office held a safe that we couldn't get into. We tried my Dad's birthday, my Mom's birthday, my birthday, and even Cullum's. We didn't know the significant date that he would have used.
