Hearing Charles' reasoning helped in more ways than one. Caden now understood why the giant was so distant. It allowed the sub to realise he wasn't at fault and it was more of a coping mechanism and a trust issue that Charles had to overcome on his own. Caden wasn't going to push him into anything the giant didn't feel comfortable with.<br/><br/>"We've only know each other for a week Charles, there is no way someone can truly know someone that quickly. You might be my Dom, but you're also my employee. If something like this happened to someone other than you within my company I'd want to know. I'm sorry. I know it wasn't easy opening up like that" he said hugging onto Charles and tightening his arms around his waist. He knew the giant probably didn't want to have this much contact just now, but it was something Caden felt they both needed. "I understand. You can punish me for my behaviour..." he said stepping back so Charles could start removing his tie. He looked up at him with a weak smile until Charles asked if he needed help cleaning up. How could the giant stomach. helping him clean up the sex scene? The thought made him stomach knot. "N-no" he said quietly. "Thank you, but that isn't something you should have to do Charles. "I'll clean it up... You must be tired from your travels. We're both too high on emotions to act anything out just now, so feel free to wake me and start tomorrow" he said starting to back off and head towards the bedroom door. His body felt really sluggish after their talk. He found himself dragging his feet as he walked to the door, but he paused and turned to face Charles again with his hand around the doorhandle. "Can I leave the door slightly open tonight? It's for a strange reason I guess, but I'll gain some form of peace knowing I can hear you. I really did miss you Sir"
