Having survived a near-death experience all Amadeus
Tudor wants to do is escape to the countryside of Scotland with his wife Zara
so the two can have some much needed down time together as a couple and work on
rebuilding their relationship. Life for
the past couple of years, however has been “a long, strange trip (it’s been)”*
for the internationally acclaimed rock star, with no signs of stopping. (*Grateful Dead - Truckin')
But before
the couple can even get away, tragedy hits close to home forcing the couple
into almost delaying their new adventure. Grace Tudor, the family matriarch
insists the two embark on their new adventure and recommitting to each other
immediately.
The change of
scenery proves exactly what Amadeus needs to reboot his songwriting and his all
encompassing bond with Zara. Together
they embrace their new adventure as slowly Amadeus, with the guidance of music
icon, Peter McNichol embarks on what promises to be another notch in Amadeus’
career.
The road is full of
twists and turns for the pair as one moment finds them frolicking in the
meadows outside Edinburgh to the next learning the shocking and sinister side
of one of Amadeus’ own brothers.
From Tudor Rubato
I closed the front door and found Amadeus back in
the kitchen helping himself to a huge slice of the blackcurrant pie. He
certainly had no problem finding the plates and forks.
“Amadeus! I was going to warm the pasties so we
could eat first.”
“But I’m starving.”
“So am I. Put it down. I’ll heat up these pasties so
we can eat. Why don’t you open the bottle of wine. And put that pie down!”
“Mmm, okay,” he mumbled as he crammed his mouth full
of pie.
I walked over and snatched the plate out of his
hand, knowing full well he would eat the entire piece while we waited for the
main course. Fortunately for us, the pasties were still fairly warm and I
popped them into the microwave for a minute just to make them hot.
I found a corkscrew in a drawer and tossed it to him
as I looked for a couple of wine glasses. I took two out of the cabinet and
walked them over to him. As I laid them down, the buzzer on the microwave
beeped letting me know the pasties were ready. I plated them, grabbed a couple
of forks and walked over to the kitchen table situated along a cheerful large
window. Amadeus quickly followed and placed a glass next to me as he sat down
across the table.
The food was good, and we were both hungrier than we
thought. We devoured all four of the pasties before Amadeus was back at his
slice of pie. My mind was still spinning with the events of the day. It had
been quite a long day for that matter, but I was too keyed up for sleep.
Instead I got up, gathered the dishes and put them
in the dishwasher before I walked back over to where Amadeus sat, still at the
kitchen table. I began to massage his neck and shoulders.
“How does that feel?”
“God you’ve got good hands. That feels wonderful.”
I knew beneath the table Amadeus was hard as
granite, the blood running like lava through his veins, and I knew where this
was going if I kept touching him.
I moved his hair to one side and began kissing him
against the nape of his neck and smiled as a shudder rippled through him.
“Amadeus,” I cooed softly, “would you like to check out
our new bedroom?”
It was all the encouragement he needed. Noisily he
shoved back his chair and hauled me into his arms. “Why go all the way upstairs
to the bedroom, love?”

ReplyDeleteHmmm, what inspires me to write? Tough one. It can be many things, sometimes it'll be reading a book or going to a movie and some little bit will stick in my mind. In my series, I always want the continuation to the story - I never want it to end. I suppose the simplest answer would be life inspires me to write!
