How Leonard had followed her to Philippa’s house, his panic attack, the details of his relationship with her mother. Then she spoke to him about the loneliness he had lived in, the excuses he made to indulge his desires, and why he really did it. He had been a sad man, cornered by hatred and resentment. But now he was different; now he acted like a father to her.
"Did you really think I could ever look at a man like him?"
"I didn’t know what to think... You didn’t deny it either."
"No, I didn’t. I was so angry, and I wanted to strip myself of everything we had, so I preferred that you believe it. I know how you are, and I knew it would hurt you. I was so hurt that I wanted you to feel at least a little of the same."

Deanna wasn't at all happy with what Harry was proposing. He had to be crazy to come up with such an idea."What you're saying makes zero sense. Did you hit your head before coming here?""I know, but we need your help. I don't know who else to ask."Harry's girlfriend, Laura, wasn't saying anything, but she was getting more nervous by the minute.Their situation wasn't good - they were still in school, they were young, madly in love, but they'd been careless. Laura had confirmed her pregnancy just three days ago."I get where you're coming from, Harry, but no one's going to buy it. Your family doesn't even know me.""But I talked to my brother and he agreed. Please Deanna, help us."Laura finally spoke up, her eyes full of tears."We wouldn't ask this if it wasn't so important to us. Our families are really strict about this stuff. They won't let Harry marry me if his older brother is still single. And my family won't let me keep the baby unless I'm married."Seeing Laura so distress

Daniel Crusher had been a widower for 5 years. His wife had died from a heart condition shortly after giving birth to their youngest son. She left him alone with 3 kids and a deep sadness in a house that suddenly felt too big.He had no intentions of remarrying, even though he was one of the most eligible bachelors and was known to have had a few brief relationships. He could raise his children alone, or at least that's what he thought.And then his younger brother comes along, backs him into a corner with a completely unthinkable proposal. When he found out why, he exploded in fury."How can you be so irresponsible?!"But Daniel couldn't leave his brother and Laura to their fate. Much less abandon the little one on the way. Behind the ice shield he'd built around himself, there was still a warm-hearted man."Who is she?" he had asked.And again, he hit the roof when Harry told him about Deanna."But if she goes to university with you, that means... she's your age?""Yes, she's 25 lik

Daniel was the first to arrive at the apartment. He'd been there a few times over the years, but this time Laura's presence was noticeable in little things throughout the house. It was clear they'd been sharing the place for a while. For some reason, he felt nervous; this situation was very similar to when his mother set him up with her friends' daughters, except this time he came willingly. Maybe because this was the first time he was the one waiting for approval. A few minutes later, the doorbell rang - it was Deanna. The moment he saw her cross the threshold, he knew this would be harder than he'd thought. She entered with a huge smile and within seconds filled the place with her energy, as if radiating some kind of warm light. She wore her hair down, the abundant caramel-colored mane covering her shoulders. Daniel's first reaction was to stand up immediately, as if pushed by an invisible force. Upon seeing him, Deanna didn't hesitate to approach and stand before the tall, dark-h

The next day, Daniel met with his parents. He needed to stay as calm as possible and tell them the news naturally; without wavering while following the story to the letter, or no one would believe the charade."Well, we're here son. What did you want to talk to us about?" his mother asked."I'm getting married.""What do you mean you're getting married? What are you talking about, Daniel?" His father was a bit surprised, it was something he never expected to hear from him again."I'm getting married in a few weeks, Dad, and I want the whole family to meet her.""Wait a moment son, wait... Who exactly are you marrying?""Deanna.""Who? Who is Deanna?"He knew his mother would flood him with questions. She wanted her grandchildren to have a woman's presence while growing up besides herself or Susan, but this was too sudden. Neither of them was prepared to hear what Daniel had to say."Deanna is Harry's university classmate. We've been dating for several months now and I've decided to ma

Laura knocked on her apartment door; Deanna wasn't expecting her. Classes had been canceled that day, and she'd taken advantage of it to organize and do some cleaning; otherwise, she wouldn't be back until late afternoon. She was supposed to finish her degree with Harry this year; now she'd have to wait a bit longer."Sorry to bother you today.""Not at all, Laura, come in... It's a bit messy because I was cleaning up.""Thanks. I'm here on a mission.""A mission?""Yes, my brother-in-law gave me his credit card and today we're going shopping together.""I guess the family meeting is already planned.""Yes.""Well, I'll do my best.""Really, Deanna, I don't know how to thank you for what you're doing. I know you didn't get a good impression of Daniel the other night, and you'll have to postpone your studies for us. But you don't know what this means to me." She placed both hands on her belly."I'm more than happy to help, don't be silly. That little seed growing inside you will have t

Deanna returned from the kitchen with two cups in her hands. While preparing the coffee, her elaborate hairstyle from that night had come undone slightly. The oversized shirt hung loosely on her, and yet, even in that disheveled state, Daniel still found her incredibly beautiful.He intercepted her before she could set the cups down on the small table and pulled her close by the waist."Why do you always look so sexy?" he asked, burying his face in her neck.He had always had these moments with her. Sometimes, he would find her somewhere in the house and wouldn’t be able to resist the urge to hold her, kiss her, or whisper sweet words in her ear. It was the way his large hands wrapped around her and the tenderness in his words that made Deanna call him "my poet." How could she not

He lifted her skirt, and her underwear met the same fate as the buttons. Finally, he took pity on Deanna, and when they came together again after so long, the pleasure was exquisite. Her back arched until it pressed completely against Daniel’s chest. He gripped her hips, setting a short but fierce rhythm.Hearing her voice her pleasure again with such shameless, uninhibited abandon was even better than hearing her sing. Watching her expressions—the way her mouth moved, the intensity in her eyes reflected in the mirror, the sheer depravity of it all—awakened something primal inside him.He tangled his fingers into her pinned-up hair and yanked her head back, exposing her neck. His mouth found its way there, searching until he reached that spot just behind her left ear that always made her moan. And moan she did—loud

His arms imprisoned her more tightly, he could feel how that daring neckline pressed against his chest; feel the small movements of her body, the electricity repeated itself, the heat repeated itself. If he could, he would embrace her so much as to incorporate her into his own being. His hands grew restless and traveled across her back and bare neck, moving further south until he could perceive the curve where her back ended beneath the countless layers of fabric of her dress. And that movement rewarded him with a stronger and more furious moan.She abandoned his jacket to fully hang from his neck, drawing him closer, as if Daniel wasn't already immersed in her orbit. Her hands slipped through his hair, how she adored running her fingers through those strands sprinkled with white! She couldn't stop the heat growing inside her, she had missed him so much. When lips weren't enough, she used her teeth in small, gentle bites and now it was Daniel's turn to emit sounds of pleasure

“But…”“But what, Crusher?”“You and her…”“Oh, please!” He threw his arms up. “Do you think that if we were together, I’d be telling you all this? Yes, I love her… But not that kind of love… I just want her to be happy, and it looks like her happiness is with you…”Daniel watched him, then looked toward the dressing room doors.“Are you still going to hesitate?”“Are you… letting her go?”“I will never let her go!

Once again, the game of glances, where they spoke thousands of words without saying a thing. The unspoken body language, the small smiles, the hands casually brushing through hair or resting on arms, the subtle movements, the magical feeling of creating an invisible tension in the air that connected them. Daniel’s blood was starting to boil, yet he still couldn’t take a single step toward her.His expressionless face sent one message, but the fire in his eyes sent another. Deanna didn’t understand—was it because of Beverly? Could her fear be true? That he no longer loved her? She bit her lip, hesitating. Why had he come, then? To show her that his love had died and that now he had another woman by his side, someone more suitable?Hours passed, but there was still no reaction from him. She felt her soul slipping a
