When Sam got out of the bathroom, Quinn was sitting tamely by the table with the food, waiting for him.
He frowned. "Why didn't you eat first?"
He knew all too well he had stayed a long while in the bathroom, since it took him considerable effort to calm his libido.
Whenever he started to show signs of calming, he would suddenly remember what they were doing and get restless again.
As such, he had to soak himself in cold water for who knew how long, and it never crossed his mind that Quinn was still waiting for him to eat.
How stupid could she be? She could eat first if she was hungry!
"I was waiting for you," Quinn replied mildly, not upset with his hostile tone.
"No one asked you to wait. Start eating," Sam growled as he sat down, shoving a fork and knife at Quinn and pettily putting extra food on her plate.
Quinn did not refuse, though she was just staring at him so much that he was starting to get uncomfortable.
Still, he said, "Finish it. You're as thin as a stick."
Quinn felt a little petty then. "I'm not. I'm perky where I should be."
In fact, she had been working hard on enlarging her chest with diet and exercises while he was in prison, since she knew that he preferred an ample bosom. She also hit the gym often to shape up her waist, posterior, and other curves.
Sam gulped, unable to help feeling buoyed again—was she doing this on purpose?! It took him considerable effort and a cold bath to cool off!
He certainly noticed the improvement in her figure, and that she was even more shapely than years ago.
Even so…
'Whatever!'
Sam kept his head down and ate, trying his best to distract himself.
Quinn did not say anything else either and ate with him in silence.
It was really late, and she did not feel hungry at first, but only when she started eating.
There were times when he wondered how he lasted this long.
But whenever he felt the impulse, the thought of doing it with other women would just vaporize his libido.
"Sam," Quinn called out to him softly then. "You can sleep on the bed tonight."
As Sam's heart skipped a beat, she added, "The couch is too small for you. I can take the couch."
Sam felt as if he had been doused by cold water, while Quinn said, "I'll call room service to clean up the table."
They were so full after they finished eating that they really did not want to move at all once they lay down on the couch, so the dirty dishes were all left on the table.
Sam watched as Quinn made the phone call, and housekeeping soon arrived to clean up.
Quinn adjusted the room heater to an optimal temperature and straightened the sheets.
"Sam, you can sleep on the bed now," she told him, while she picked up the blanket and headed for the chaise lounge.
