Michael enjoyed the deep kiss with Aurora and felt her arms wrapped around her neck as he was partly on top of her. He felt her break the kiss, and then nodded after she made her statement, "You are truly right Aurora, at one time that was quite my intention." He sighed softly, as he laid fully on his right side, and cuddled her close with his left arm. His left hand moved over her riding shirt, slipped inside and felt her belly button, a deep inny the size of a gold coin, in a vertical oval. He massaged it softly, and felt it stretch more as her stomach moved with each of her breaths. "I was driven from knighthood in disgrace by treachery, and only by the money I had saved from payments for service was I able to have this estate. I have found that when you are alone, you can think, and time heals wounds. I want to have everything to do with you Aurora, and the words I speak are truth."
