I woke up as the sun was shining into the room. I slowly open my eyes and touch the pillow. it has now become a habit. But as my fingers touched the pillow, there was no rose but instead, I felt his hair. My eyes open wide as I see Ace asleep next to me in the bed.

The memory of last night hit me and I looked around the room... I am still at Ace's manor in his bed. I felt him search for me then he pulled me in closer to him. He smiles then kisses my lips softly. He does look so sexy laying there right now. His eyes open slowly,

"Good morning, my treasure."

"Good morning, kind sir."

He smiled as he snuggled his face in my neck. I felt him kiss me softly. He felt good but I needed to get back home. Then I remember the mystery lover. What if Ace is not him and York came to mine last night and he found I was not there? How do I explain that?

"Ace, I need to get home. What if you are not the mystery lover and York came last night?"

He chuckled softly then spoke.

"Relax, the mystery lover does not visit the lady the night before the last ball."

"It's the last ball tonight?"

"That is correct, my treasure. So there is nothing to worry about."

Is this known by every midnight ball member? Or is it just because he is the mystery lover and knows it was safe? Is that why he planned for me to stay the night?

He looks up at me while I am in thought then turns my face towards his. He gave me a deviously grin before he spoke.

"You do not believe me and think I am the mystery lover, am I wrong?"

He chuckles at me then his hand moved up to the buttons on my shirt he let me wear last night. He slowly undid a button.

"Ace! We do not have time for this... My dress might be waiting and I don't want it to go missing."

"It will not, so just relax, Harper."

I looked at him and he chuckled again.

"Do I have to punish you with pleasure until you believe me?"

Punish me? Isn't that what the mystery love once said to me before? It has to be Ace right? Ace then grinned as he undid another button and his hand slipped inside my shirt then slowly rubbed over my nipple. I moaned out as he kissed me. His lips pulled away from mine as he gave another grin before he spoke in a husky voice.

"Looks like I get to punish you after all."

"Looks that way."

I teased him back. His touch made me relax and my body shivered as I wanted him again. He chuckled as he ripped open my shirt and kissed my breasts. I moaned out as he made love to me over again.

Later that afternoon Ace took me home and waiting outside my door was a huge box from the mystery lover. Ace grinned at me as I picked it up.

"See, I told you it would be okay."

Did he know because the box is from him? Or is it really a rule about the night before the last ball really true?

"This is where I say farewell ... Until tonight, my treasure."

He softly kisses the back of my hand.

"Do you not want to see the dress?"

He grins then kiss my lips before he spoke.

"I will see it tonight, and I can not wait to see it on your sexy body."

I smiled at him as he turned and left. He then calls back as he gets into his car.
