On the way from the spa all Anyae's mind was on was the whole Valentina attack. Then it shifted to the talk Constantine said he would have with her grandfather. Thinking back in how it went, Valentina looked so desperate to get rid of her. Almost as if she could stand to lose something if she failed.
The girl was now awake, bound, gagged, and glowering out the window in the back seat.
But despite what she just tried to to do Anyae felt sorry for her. Constantine had glanced over at her to find her looking at Valentina. A soft caress of his hand against her face had her looking at him with a smile.

"She's fine Lotus. Don't worry. She'll be heading home today. "

Valentina closed her eyes in resignation, not at all prepared to face her grandfather again. The harsh sting of failure left a sour taste in her mouth and made her heart ache with sorrow and shame. She'd have to meet her grandfather face to face again. But he would not only know she failed, he'd see it too.
As soon as Victor pulled up in front of their house both of them jumped out. But Constantine made sure to tell Victor to keep Valentina company outside. So when they got in Anyae asked, "So how long will we be there?"

"After what she just tried to do I do not think it wise to stay longer than two days.

Two days sounded good to her.
So once they packed, they hopped back in and drove on the way to the airport. Anyae could practically feel a question burning on her tongue so she turned to ask,"Have you met her grandfather before?" He sighed and nodded but decided not to delve further for both girls sakes.

Le Time Skip................................

The view out the plane window was beautiful. While Valentina looked out forlornly, Mrs. Macheibreigh looked out in awe. After the plane trip Constantine had Victor drive them to a hotel. While Valentina was guarded by Victor, Con was busy getting a room. Anyae followed behind and once they got their room, she ran and jumped on the bed. It felt so good and in bliss she moaned into her pillow. Constantine practically caught whiplash looking at her.

"As bratty as you can be there are moments where you amuse rather than annoy me. "

Anyae picked her head up and looked at him,"So when are you talking to Valentina's grandfather? Later on tonight or... tomorrow? "

He shook his head,"No I mean to have this done as soon as possible. But first I feel I need a shower and change of wardrobe."

"Yeah me too, take one with me. "

Her husband immediately adopted a look of disapproval but she rolled her eyes at him.

"Not like that I mean that it will save time for that talk. "

Con hesitantly said yes and they showered together. Anyae could feel her skin warm and shyly kept her gaze on anything but him and his body. He pushed his hair back from his face and smirked at her, "So now you'd like to play pretend and act as if you're shy?"

Anyae pursed her lips, "No!"
Constantine studied her face silently with an overly intent gaze. She eventually could not stand his stare and found herself looking elsewhere. Without noticing that he took a step closer to her. Being stubborn, she refused to look at him. He chuckled at her adorable
response,"No? Well then either this is underhand foreplay you are trying to get into or you are genuinely shy. Which is it Lotus?"

Anyae glanced at him then tried to go around him but he firmly grabbed her and pulled her body against his. Slicking her hair away from her ear he tsked at her.

"Tsk tsk tsk I asked you a question slut."

A budding arousal slowly began within her. He nuzzled her neck and teasingly ran his hand from her hip to her neck.

"We could skip the talk and spend a day together. We could sight see, go out to eat, go dancing. "

A gentle smile graced his lips and a sweet warmth engulfed his chest. She embraced him under the calming spay of water and he pressed a kiss to her temple.

Con murmured into her hair, "I would love to do all those things with you Lotus. But first we have to get this talk out the way okay?"

"Okay I can be patient because I get this is important. No pressure. "

Feeling content with things he hummed and once they washed each other they got out. Both dried off and got dressed. Though Anyae was not scared she was low-key nervous about how things would go over between them while Constantine seemed as cool as a cucumber. Heading out, her husband made sure Valentina called ahead to let her grandfather know she was coming home.
Just with unexpected guests
...and news.
