Chapter Thirty Six
Third Person POV.
Richard stared at Amber, annoyance etched across his face as he demanded an
explanation for her unexpected presence in his room.
Amber stood frozen in place, shock pulsing through her veins, rendering her speechless.
His irritated tone only fueled her discomfort, and she struggled to find her voice amidst
the brewing tension in the room.
“Why… why are you staring at me like that?” Richard’s voice dripped with irritation. “Are
you some kind of pervert?”
Amber snapped out of her daze, her wide eyes widening even further as panic coursed
through her. “N–no I’m not a pervert,” she stammered, her words tumbling over one
another in her haste. “I–I apologize
if I looked strange. That wasn’t my intention.”
His annoyance seemed to deepen, Richard’s brow furrowing as he regarded her carefully.
“Then what are you doing in my room?” he asked.
Amber’s stuttered response spilled out, her words faltering as she struggled to compose
herself. “I… I tried to call for a servant to help me with the zipper on my wedding dress, so
I could take
it off. But no one answered, and… and I didn’t know what to do. You were the only person I
could think of for help.” She finished her explanation.
Richard let out a long sigh, his impatience seemingly overshadowed by exasperation. “You
could have at least waited outside my room,” he retorted. “You’ve infringed on my privacy
by barging in without
permission.”
Amber’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she dropped her gaze to the floor. “I… I
apologize,” she murmured. “You’re right. I shouldn’t have come in without asking.”
Richard’s stern expression softened slightly as he looked at her. “Is it only your wedding
dress that
you need help with?”
Amber nodded meekly, unable to meet his gaze. “Yes, that’s all,” she replied.

He let out another sigh, his gaze briefly wandering around the room before settling back
on Amber. “Fine,” he conceded. “Wait outside my room. Let me get dressed first, and then
I’ll assist you with
your dress’s zipper.”
Amber nodded again, grateful for his offer of help despite the friction between them. She
turned to leave, her steps hesitant as she made her way towards the door. As she reached
for the handle, her hand paused, and she mustered the courage to speak up.
“I’m sorry, Richard,” she said. “I didn’t mean to invade your privacy. It won’t happen
again.”
Amber walked out the door, and stood outside Richard’s door, her mind buzzing with a
chaotic mix of thoughts and emotions. She couldn’t help but feel a heightened awareness
of what had transpired moments earlier her unexpected intrusion, her glimpse of Richard’s
shirtless form. The memory played on a loop in her mind, amping up her curiosity and
conflicting feelings.
The tattoos. That was what had struck her the most. The sight of the designs etched on
Richard’s skin had mesmerized her. It was something she hadn’t expected, and she
couldn’t help but be slightly curious about him, his tattoos, and what she would have seen
if his towel had slipped.
She fought against the creeping blush that had stained her cheeks when her thoughts
steered towards a more provocative path. She scolded herself internally, berating her
wandering mind and those pesky what–if scenarios. She refused to think of herself as a
pervert, but the lure of the illicit thoughts whispered in her mind was hard to ignore.
Biting her lip, Amber refocused her attention on the tattoos. She mentally retraced the
ones she had managed to glimpse earlier the striking face, the smaller designs, and the
quotes. Counting them, she estimated there were at least five tattoos scattered across his
skin.
Lost in contemplation, Amber’s thoughts eventually circled back to her original purpose for
being here She needed to talk to Richard, to understand why he had been so cold towards
her lately. She needed to address the tension that had settled between them, and perhaps
find a way to clear the air.
As if in response to her thoughts, the door to Richard’s bedroom swung open. He appeared
in the doorway, now dressed in a simple t–shirt and shorts, a more approachable version
of himself. His eyes met hers, and he beckoned her inside.
“Come in,” he said. “Let’s get this over with.”
Amber stepped into the room, and Richard’s eyes scanned the room briefly before he
turned to face

“Do I have to ‘unzip the entire dress?” Richard asked. “I don’t want to accidentally expose
you.”
Amber’s lips quirked into a small smile as she shook her head. “No, Richard. You don’t
have to unzip the whole dress,” she replied. “The zipper is a bit hidden, but it’s there. If
you just unzip it a bit from the top, I can take it from there.”
Richard’s shoulders sagged in relief, a soft sigh escaping his lips. “Thank goodness,” he
mumbled, trailing his fingers over the fabric of her dress.
Amber’s breath hitched as she felt the light graze of Richard’s fingers on her back. Her
body tensed
for a moment before she willed herself to relax, reminding herself that his touch was
innocent. She
mentally chided herself for her sudden reaction, her mind wandering back to their earlier
encounter.
Richard’s fingers continued their gentle exploration, inching their way down her back,
searching for
the hidden zipper. Time seemed to stretch on, each passing moment filled with anger.
Follow current on NovelEnglish.netAmber held her
breath, her heart pounding in her chest.
Finally, Richard’s fingers found what they were searching for. He zipped the dress down
with Amber’s
hand guiding him through the process of what was enough for Amber to take over, and
their fingers grazed as the transition was made.
“I’m done,” Richard announced. “You can turn around now.”
Amber spun on her heels to face him, her eyes locked on his. “Thank you, Richard,” she
said. “I
really appreciate your help.”
Richard nodded, his gaze still strict before he cleared his throat, pushing back the
intensity of the
moment. “You’re welcome,” he replied.
Amber hesitated, realizing that her task wasn’t yet complete. She had something to say to
Richard, something that needed to be addressed. She took a step towards the door,
preparing to leave, while summoning the courage to speak her mind.
But before she could take another step, she froze in her tracks, a sudden determination
filling her.
She turned back to face Richard, determination etched on her face.
“You’re not going to bed now, are you?” Amber asked.

“You’re not going to bed now, are you?” Amber asked.
Richard blinked in confusion, caught off guard by her sudden inquiry. “Um… no, I was
planning on staying up for a while,” he replied. “Why do you ask?”
A small smile played at the corners of Amber’s lips. “Good. That’s good,” she said.
“Because I want to talk to you. I have something to say, and I won’t take ‘no‘ for an
answer.”
