Re: Melinda & Viktor & OPEN
Melinda closed her eyes and rested the side of her head against Viktor’s jaw, giving off the impression that she truly was tired. She hadn’t doubted that Viktor would go with her when she left, but she didn’t want to pull him away from the celebration. “It’s been a long day,” she said loud enough to be heard by the people around them, before she opened her eyes and looked up at Viktor. “Time for me to get home to bed before I turn into a pumpkin.”
Back in her flat above Sweet Nothings, she did a quick reinforcing of the privacy wards, to keep their evening truly private, and to spare Tate and Persephone a potential audible show. “So,” she said, turning to Viktor as she slowly unzipped her dress. “You said something about… cuffs?” She freed first one arm, then the other, and when the dress slid off her body to pile on the floor, she took a step toward him, holding out her hands as if in surrender.
