When I’m done, I dry myself quickly, keen to get back to Christian. There’s an email waiting for me, sent just after I left for dinner a few hours ago.

You stole my line.
And left me hanging.
Enjoy your dinner.

Sir, I think you’ll find it was Elliot’s line originally.
Hanging how?

Miss Steele
You’re back. You left so suddenly - just when things were getting interesting.
Elliot’s not very original. He’ll have stolen that line from someone.
How was dinner?

Dinner was filling – you’ll be very pleased to hear, I ate far too much.
Getting interesting? How?

Are you being deliberately obtuse? I think you’d just asked me to unzip your dress.
And I was looking forward to doing just that. I am also glad to hear you are eating.
