Samuel found a quiet spot and hit acigarette. The air was chilly, and the evening breeze was picking up. He wore only a shirt that did little to shield him from the elements, and he cursed softly when the lighter refused to work. He stalked back to the hotel to ask for a lighter from the waiting staff

After smoking half a cigarette, he dialed Shelmaine’s number. He waited what felt like ages for her to answer, and when she did, she sounded courteous but distant. “Hello? Is everything all right?”

“What if I peeled them for you?” he asked.

“Aren’t you tired of this nonsense?” she snapped.

“It isn’t nonsense to me”

She lowered her voice as she hissed, “Watch yourself, Samuel. Your fiancée is here too.”

He was being unreasonable and tyrannical

Not wanting him to make good on his threat, Shelmaine showed up outside about ten seconds before a minute was up.

Samuel was kissing her.

He had pinned her hand against the wall to keep her in place, and his free hand cupped her nape. She could not budge as she felt his warm breath on hers demanding as he prodded her lips open and slid his tongue in.
