Chapter 235 Pink Pajamas

Just as Matthew finished speaking, he leaned in for a kiss.

Elizabeth, with a sly smile, deftly dodged and slipped out of his embrace.

"Didn't I say? Let me finish packing and take a shower first."

Matthew glanced at Elizabeth's lone suitcase and couldn't help but chuckle.

"You don't have much to pack. Just kiss me already."

Elizabeth ignored him and walked over to her suitcase, taking out the few clothes she had and hanging them in the upstairs closet.

Matthew, no longer insistent, started putting away the toiletries his assistant had bought.

When he reached the bottom of the bag, he saw two large boxes of condoms and couldn't help but laugh.

His assistant knew him well. A raise was in order.

Matthew made sure Elizabeth didn't see the condoms and discreetly hid them in the cabinet. He figured they'd come in handy later.

After some thought, he took two out and slipped them into his pocket before heading to inspect the bathroom.

The duplex apartment wasn't large, but it was cozy. The bathroom was just big enough for two people.

Elizabeth kept her promise. After tidying up, she grabbed her new nightgown and headed for the shower.

Matthew raised an eyebrow in surprise when he saw the pink dress.

He had always thought Elizabeth's favorite color was black, as her bras and jackets were almost always in that dark hue.

Seeing a light pink floral dress today made Matthew question his eyesight.

Elizabeth seemed a bit shy, giving him a push and warning him repeatedly.

"The bathroom door doesn't lock, but you can't come in. Wait until I'm done, and I'll keep my promise."

Matthew chuckled, "Alright."

He sat on the couch, pulling out the blindfold he had bought, feeling a bit excited about what was to come.

He listened to the sound of the water in the bathroom, enjoying the breeze and closing his eyes to relax.

Elizabeth showered quickly, just rinsing off the sweat before stepping out. She looked at the girl in the mirror wearing the pink dress, feeling a bit self-conscious.

She used to love pink, but after years of struggling in Solterra, she couldn't wear a color that couldn't hide bloodstains.

Over time, she got used to wearing dark colors. Now, suddenly switching back felt strange.

The light pink nightgown was something Alice had specially brought over last night, designed just for her.

Before leaving, Alice had insisted that she wear it in front of Matthew and observe his reaction.

Seeing the dress reminded Elizabeth of that, and she had mischievously shown it to Matthew.

In that moment, she could almost see the anticipation in Matthew's eyes.

So, after her shower, Elizabeth feared Matthew might lose control upon seeing the dress.

But it was just a dress, after all.

Elizabeth mustered her courage and stepped out. The midday breeze blew in through the window, lifting her dress slightly.

Matthew heard the noise and turned around, freezing in place, his gaze fixed.

Fresh out of the shower, Elizabeth's face was still a bit flushed. The pink dress fluttered gently in the breeze, her smooth hair cascading over her shoulders, exuding a gentle aura.

She looked so different, so unlike her usual self, that Matthew couldn't tear his eyes away.

Elizabeth tugged at the hem of her dress and walked over. "You don't like it?"

Matthew snapped out of it, quickly nodding, "I like it. Of course, I like it."

He opened his arms, and Elizabeth naturally knelt on his lap, straddling him.

With her on top, she looked down at Matthew, feeling a new kind of thrill.

It was a feeling of absolute control.

Elizabeth suddenly wanted to tease him. Like a cat, she reached out and hooked Matthew's chin.

Matthew's breathing grew heavier, his eyes darkening. Despite it being midday, he couldn't resist slipping his hand under her dress.

"Haven't had lunch yet. Guess I'll have you."

Elizabeth thought she had the upper hand, but Matthew quickly turned the tables, pulling out a blindfold and slipping it over her eyes.

With the light blocked out, Elizabeth felt disoriented and reached to remove it.

But her body was suddenly spun around, and she gasped as Matthew's hot body pressed against hers.

As Elizabeth wondered in the darkness, Matthew's kisses came down on her, overwhelming her.

The unexpectedness of the kisses made her uncomfortable, unsure of what would happen next.

She was supposed to kiss Matthew, but he took the lead, his kisses landing on her lips, neck, and body.

The nightgown she had just put on was lifted, and Matthew's fingers gently traced the edge of her panties, slowly slipping inside.

His other hand wasn't idle either, moving up her waist to grasp her bare chest.

With her last bit of rationality, Elizabeth pushed him, wrapping her arms around his neck, clinging to him, her voice heavy with breath.

"Carry me to the bed."

Matthew paused, not wanting to ruin the moment but still honest.

"The stairs have a railing. It's too narrow for both of us to go up together."

Elizabeth hesitated, embarrassed, and pulled off the blindfold, escaping from his arms and running up the stairs.

She had said it out of habit, not expecting it to slip out today.

It was all Matthew's fault, making her so hot and bothered that she almost lost her mind.

Matthew tossed his jacket onto the couch, grabbed the blindfold, and headed upstairs, shirtless.

Elizabeth had buried her head in the covers, but hearing him, she peeked out and saw Matthew's chiseled body.

Matthew's muscular chest and abs glistened with a thin layer of sweat. As he rummaged in his pocket, his arm muscles stood out.

Elizabeth watched as he pulled out two familiar packages and placed them on the bedside table.

"We'll need these later."

What? Elizabeth curiously leaned in and saw the condoms.
