Unexpected Rise of Leonard Storm

Chapter 51

Leonard headed to the bathroom, planting a soft knock on the door.

“Are you in there, Matilda?”

Silence. He opened the door which revealed the textured glass of the bathroom, and it was only when he looked at the glass he noticed he was naked as the day he was born. Only his reflection stared back at him. Matilda wasn’t anywhere to be found.

Where did she go? Was she in his room? Or could it be…?

His heart stirred at the thought and he swallowed hard. It couldn’t be. She couldn't be doing the same thing she did the last time. At least, not after their beautiful moment together last night. Besides, she’d taken charge at some point. It couldn't have been the alcohol. She was just as into it as he was. He raked his hand through his dishevelled hair and let out a deep growl. This couldn’t be happening.

He looked into her wardrobe, and when he found that her things were still intact, a sigh escaped his lips.

At least, she hadn’t gone back to the States. He had that to be grateful for.
