A Marriage To Cure A Broken Billionaire 22. Getting So close
Once the waiter sets the food on the table, Taesha inhales, taking in all the aromas that float in the air. The waiter uncorked the red wine that came with the meal. He handed Dexter the cork to sniff and poured a sample into a glass. Dexter, the perfectionist, swirled the contents, held in the goblet, looking for sediment in the crystal, then sniffing and sipping. That's what one would think. He's drinking red wine but has never seen the color of it until now. The wine coated his tongue with the most delightful hints of fruits and Moka. Nodding his acceptance, he requested the lady have a sample of his selection. Taesha followed his lead, taking the wine glass, inhaling, tasting, and nodding lightly."Waiter, can you bring us a blue cheese board with this wine?" "Yes, Madam," He said, pouring them both half-full goblets and leaving.Once again, Dexter was impressed. She took his hand, which surprised him. Dexter saw her lower her head, and he followed suit.

The only lights in the restaurant were the line of candle sconces that went around the walls of the large room. Taesha's eyes expand, trying to focus in the dark.

The room was still dim, and then she heard a voice that captivated her attention as her eyes tried to focus."Tonight, I want to dedicate this song and performance to a special young lady. She inspired this song and the title. So, ladies and gentlemen, I hope you enjoy."That's when a single spotlight shines on a man in all black as he strolls so cool out in the center of the floor.

A Marriage To Cure A Broken Billionaire 24. This Is My Confession
The ride home was quiet. Dexter didn't know how to break the thick ice of tension that had developed between them. Their romantic and sensual night they were having had suddenly come to an end, and he didn't know why. There was no explanation or anything.

"Are you sliding your eyes over here at me?" Taesha sounded agitated."No, I'm not sliding my eyes at you," Dexter replied. Things got quiet again.

"Perhaps I'm reluctant because this thing we are experiencing feels so good it's got to be something wrong with it. And trust me, I'm not trying to get hurt or disappointed." You. "Taesha, let me reassure you, I've never been the type of man to desire love. I never knew what love was and had no desire to know. For the first time in my life, these emotions I have for you are so refreshing. Only words of endearment fill my heart when I look at you and think about you. I know what we feel is undeniable and rare to be experiencing in such a short period. Love doesn't happen like this with anyone. Today when I sat down and wrote that song about you. I liked my thoughts. The words came into my mind and heart with such ease. I don't smile. But I've I'm smiling now for no apparent reason. You give me a whole new range of affections and sentiments. If this is what love is supposed to feel like, then I want it. I want it with you." "Woah! Hold your horses there, pal! Hey, we are getting deep
A Marriage To Cure A Broken Billionaire 26. When Only Darkness Appears
His mind and body stirred with great need. His hand reached out to touch and feel every inch of her body. If only he could show her how he felt about her. The words she uttered, she'd liked kissing him and hadn't wanted to stop. How was he supposed to walk away knowing that? But Dexter didn't want to scare her away by showing her how badly he wanted her. So instead, he leaned close to her ear, inhaling, taking in her sweet scent he'd become addicted to already. "Hm-mm. A very long, happy three days it's been." Trust. His trust is vital. Dexter wanted her to trust him. So he forced himself to stand up straight as he tiptoed out of the room.

I raised the bed covers up to my neck, staring at him as he stared back at me, and when he blinked slowly again, I saw a fresh set of tears slide down his cheeks. I didn't know what to do, he looked as if he needed something, but I didn't know what. Emotionally, he confused me; tears drew me to his open vulnerability, and I wanted to comfort him. But at the same time, he didn't look like the Dexter I had come to know these three days. It made me a little fearful. I knew that I had to stop beating around the bush. "Listen, if you're not going to say anything or tell me what's wrong. You are going to need to get out of this bedroom." Dexter grimaced (a twisted expression on his face.) in response to my words, which seemed to have no effect as he maintained eye contact with me. "What? Are you all right?" After what felt like minutes, he shook his head slowly, no. I tried to smile, knowing I was under his scrutiny. His gaze was unsettling, but strangely I felt more exposed than a

The weather forecast was correct; the heavy snow was over, but it was still cold even though the sun was shining so bright. Nevertheless, it was a beautiful day to be out of the cabin.

They had the Fish and-ski-hike store that displays fishing rods and gear, snowboards, and hiking boots in the window.

Taesha always smells fantastic. If it's not her hair, it's her skin or stylish clothing. He looks at how those leather pants hugged her sexy round backside and how great everything else looks exquisite enough to stir up his passion."Hey, Dexter, do you want to sit at the table or over here on the sofa and watch television?"

"Taesha! Taesha!" "What, boy? What's wrong with you?" She asked, turning to look at him, concerned by his panicked voice as he entered the kitchen, huffing, and puffing."Baby, are you sick?"

The honeymoon phase was filled with steamy nights at their home in the mountains. It appeared every two weeks, Dexter's sight would diminish and return to total darkness. But waking up blind wasn't as frightful now because he knew the capacity of one glass of Taesha’s homemade wine could do for his sight. Dexter, of course, was grateful for this breakthrough.

A Marriage To Cure A Broken Billionaire 68. Careless or Careful?
Careless or Careful?"I don't know why but It's in the music, books you read, and some movies. I decided if I found the one, and I did, I would treat you with the utmost love and dignity. Out in a world, it's full of lust, Taesha. It's all about pure selfishness. My music is successful because I write what women need and want to hear. But women are very complex creatures, emotional and all. I've seen countless women willing to do a lot to get a man, win his love, money, and sometimes his body. Observing, being alone, I've learned much from females.""You mean you used the females for business purposes?""That's not fair. I've never taken advantage of anyone.""What am I? Some experiment for you to examine and use?" She stepped away. "No, never! I'm trying to say that, for the first time, you were the first girl I couldn't read or figure out, and you certainly have never been willing to do whatever I wanted you to do, and you were careless about my wealth.

I don't believe my ears! I'm trying to console you! I know you are disappointed that it didn't work! But don't turn your back to me as if it's my fault!" "God! won't you stop talking!

“Thanks, my love, for picking out my outfit. I can do the rest from here.”Dexter slipped on a pair of light brown skinny-leg pants with a deep royal gold thick sweater.

He sat down while slipping into his shoes, grabbing his leather brown jacket and sunglasses as he left the bedroom.Once she selected his clothing, then she picked out her own. ‘So this is what it would be like with him completely blind for the rest of our lives.’ She never imagined herself being married to a man that was blind. She worried about them being an interracial couple and how others would treat them. But she never in millions of years thought she would be married to a man who couldn’t see. Taesha silently continued to pray his sight even if only what he had before with the ash gray would return. Then, she got dressed, took h

"Is it still nighttime, my love?" She smiles, thinking he is joking. "Baby, yesterday is officially over. I know you wish it could last on and on. But a new day has arrived. Look, Dex, the sun is shining brightly."Fear gripped his heart as he opened his eyes again, and it was pitch black! Dexter rubbed his eyes, reopening them only to be once again to be faced with darkness. Taesha sees the anguish on his handsome face. "Baby, what's wrong?" "Taesha, I can't see! I can't see anything!" "What do you mean? Are you seeing in ash gray again?" "No, I'm blind! I can't see at all!" "You have not been this way before, unable to see at all!
