Dante

"What are you doing out of bed," Dante growled as he scooped Belle up carefully.
"I can walk Dee, besides I am tired of staying in bed all day," she said frustratedly.
"Well until you are all better let me do the walking for you," he said carrying her to his room.
"My room is the other way."
"I know but I want you close. I need to keep an eye on you," he whispered as he placed her on the bed.

Slowly undoing the shirt she was wearing she grabbed his hands stopping him.
"What are you doing?"
"Checking to see how you are healing," he said as he continued to undo the shirt.
Belle couldn't help but stare at how large his hands were as she still had hers over his loving the warmth he provided. He was wearing knee length shorts with a shirt open at the neck revealing his hard toned chest. No sign of any chest hair in sight to tease her eyes but his smooth skin called out to her more than she ever thought possible. Silas had been a way to distract her from Dante but that was a complete flop. When the man kissed her that day at her office her barriers tumbled down in an instant.

He was too engrossed in his task he didn't notice as she looked him over. Subconsciously she licked her lips just as he looked up at her catching the action making him freeze. He seemed to snap out of the daze as he gripped her hips pulling her down in the bed so that she lay flat on her back for his inspection. Looking at the dark purple marks he gently probed as she whimpered when he placed his hand close to her ribcage.
"Sshhh, I'm sorry," he said placing a gentle kiss on the wound, before trailing to her stomach. "Better now?"
She simply nodded her head not trusting her voice as her body burned with desire.
"Get some rest now little one," he said kissing her forehead.

Grabbing his hand he looked back at her with a questioning look as she mouthed something. Leaning towards her to hear what she was saying she snaked her hands around his neck bringing his lips to hers as she slowly kissed him surprising him. He slowly took over the kiss hearing her moans of pleasure as he showed her just how much she meant to him. Slowly pulling apart she opened her eyes to see a smile gracing his face.
"Get some rest baby," he said.

Belle's POV

The look in his eyes showed so much promise as he held back clearly because of my injuries. I didn't even want to know what happened to Silas since he stopped calling me after Dante brought me back home. It had been two days since I had been to the office and I was afraid of what my employees would think of my not showing up. By the third day I had pleaded with Dante to go in and check on how things were going, that is, after he insisted he accompany me just to be safe. My body wasn't aching any longer as we headed to the office. He was on his phone speaking with several people in different languages ending his call when we arrived at my office.

"Ma'am it's good to have you back. How are you feeling?" Her secretary greeted her once we stepped out of the elevator.
"Fine thank you," I said a little bewildered by her overzealous greeting.
Dante chuckled looking at her expression.
"Welcome back boss," he said into my ear making me blush. Just the fact that he called me boss made me feel warm and giddy with excitement.

The day flew by with us working in comfortable silence.

Draco

"Gosh I am so tired," Ela said as she slowly sunk into the chair.
"Well that's what you get for signing up for those classes early. Besides you refused my offer of a nice warm bubble bath to relax you sore and aching muscles after work.
"Remind me to always take your suggestions. I could really use that right about now," she said making him chuckle.
"Well you are in luck, the offer still stands," he said pulling her up leading her to his room before leaving her to run the water. A few minutes later he returned.
"Your spa awaits you my lady," he said taking a small bow.
"I don't deserve you one bit," she sighed becoming silent when she saw the bathroom strewn with lit scented candles as the water called out to her. "Not one bit," she said with a sincere smile.
"If you need help just yell," he said kissing her cheek before leaving.

Whilst relaxing his phone rang as he picked it up absentmindedly.
"Hello Dante or is it Draco," he heard Sebastian say.
