sandals that Nadira had bought for her. She hurried out of her room as fast as her sore ribs would allow her to and went to find the kitchen as she realized she had worked up quite the appetite.
Excitement to see Toma filled her as she made her way down to the kitchen, finding him with Adrian and Nicu deep in conversation at the kitchen table.
“Morning!” she said with a large smile on her face.
Her eyes tried to catch Toma’s but he wouldn’t look in her direction. Her smile instantly faded sensing something was wrong.
“Good morning, Anika,” Nicu said nodding his head to her.
“How are you this morning?” Adrian asked, his ice blue eyes showing concern.
“I’m just sore,” she said clearing her throat. Her voice was a little more hoarse, thanks to all of the screaming during her multiple orgasms Toma wrung out of her. “I should be fine.”
Her heart ached as she realized that Toma was not going to look, or even speak to her. Did she embarrass him? She suddenly felt self conscious, thinking that maybe he didn’t want his brothers to know that he slept with the chubby girl.
She glanced at him again, recognizing that the old Toma was back, as if nothing had ever happened between them. She began to think that maybe he didn’t feel the same about her as she did for him. She must have just been a piece of pussy to pass the time and it was all her fault.
She did, however, practically throw herself at him. She finally got up the nerve to approach him about how she felt and look where it’s gotten her. Not just a broken heart but a shredded heart.
“Good morning all!” Tabitha, the Olaru house manager greeted everyone as she breezed into the kitchen. “Anika, it’s so good to see you. What will you have for breakfast?”
Tabitha was human also and had worked for the Olaru family for about ten years. Tabitha’s tall frame zipped around the kitchen. She was always excited when Anika came to visit since it gave her a chance to actually cook for someone.
“Toast will be fine,” Anika answered, wondering if she should just leave and come back once Toma and his brothers left.
“Oh, no! You are not eating just toast!” Tabitha huffed. “I am cooking, so you just sit right there and I’ll whip us up something good!” She directed and helped Anika sit on the stool by the island.
“Anika, you will need your strength,” Nicu said frowning slightly, noticing her stiffness. “Nadira said you are to eat. Help your self to whatever is here in the kitchen.”
Adrian and Tabitha both nodded and verbalized agreement to Nicu’s statement. Toma remained silent, still refusing to look in her direction, finding something very interesting outside the kitchen patio door.
“Thank you, Nicu,” she said softly as Nicu stormed out the kitchen with Adrian and Toma behind him while Tabitha began banging around the kitchen. She stared down at the counter top, not even knowing what to think.
He didn’t even look at her once. She knew she had taken a chance last night. She didn’t even know where she had got the courage to come on to him. She certainly won’t regret what they did; after all it was the best night of her life.
As Tabitha hummed and sang off key puttering around the kitchen, Anika took one last look at the door Toma walked through, with a longing in her heart that would probably never be filled again.

~Toma~
H e should never have touched her. The look on her face when he didn’t speak to her in the kitchen just about crushed him. He wanted to run to her and take her in his arms and apologize for ignoring her. There was no way that he could let anyone know what went on between Anika and him.
This morning when he woke up with her nestled in his arms, he had been in heaven. He didn’t want to move from the bed. Her dark hair, spread out on his arm and pillow, appeared as a dark cloud surrounding her. Her creamy brown skin made his fingers itch to want to explore her body again. And the way
