"The Engadine Museum, the Druid stone, St. Mauritius fountain, the leaning tower…"

WHEN MARK AND Kelly were alone in their suite, Mark said, "Darling, I don't want the situation to make you uncomfortable. We're just doing this to stop any gossip. We're going to spend the rest of our lives together. And what we're going to share is much more important than anything physical. I just want to be with you and I want you to be with me." Kelly threw her arms around him and hugged him. "I-I don't know what to say." Mark smiled. "You don't have to say anything."

THEY HAD DINNER downstairs and then went back to their suite.
Twin beds had been put in the master bedroom. "Should we toss a coin?" Kelly smiled. "No, you take whichever one you like." When Kelly came out of the bathroom fifteen minutes later, Mark was in bed.
Kelly walked over to him and sat on the edge of his bed. "Mark, are you sure this is going to work for you?" "I've never been more sure of anything in my life. Good night, my beautiful darling." "Good night." Kelly got into her bed and lay there, thinking. Reliving the night that had changed her life. Shhh! Don't make a sound… If you tell your mother about this, I'll come back and kill her. What that monster had done to her had taken over her whole life. He had killed something in her, and made her afraid of the dark… afraid of men… afraid of love. She had given him power over her. I'm not going to let him. Not anymore. All the emotions she had repressed over the years, all the passion that had been building up in her, exploded like a dam bursting. Kelly looked over at Mark and suddenly wanted him desperately. She threw back the covers and walked over to his bed. "Move over," she whispered.
Mark sat up, surprised. "You said you-you didn't want me in your bed, and I-" Kelly looked at him and said softly, "But I didn't say I couldn't be in your bed." She watched the look on his face as she took off her nightgown and slid into bed beside him.
"Make love to me," she whispered.
"Oh, Kelly! Yes!" He started softly and gently. Too softly. Too gently. The floodgates had opened, and Kelly needed him urgently. She made violent love to him, and she had never felt anything so wonderful in her life.
When they were lying in each other's arms, resting, Kelly said, "You know that list you showed me?" "Yes." She said softly, "You can throw it away." Mark grinned.
"What a fool I've been," Kelly said. She held Mark close, and they talked, and made love again, and finally they were both exhausted.
