Lucian took his time to study the body of his beautiful wife, she looks ravishingly beautiful he thought and he couldn't really wait to devour every part of her but today he wants to take his time to enjoy her like it would be his last.“You are really beautiful, wife." His words were soft and genuine causing a happy, shy smile to form on the face of Anna.“You are beautiful too," she said as they locked eyes together in a blazing gaze that set their very souls and heart in flames.A soft smile touched Lucian's lips, he really loves the fact that she called him beautiful. Nobody had called him beautiful before. Handsome, yes but never beautiful. He likes the sound of it especially coming from her, his love and wife.For this he is going to give her the most pleasurable feeling she has ever felt in her life tonight, he made a promise to himself.Bringing his face down to hers, he brushed his lips gently against hers, teasingly causing a sweet wave of current to pass from his lips to he
It was nearly evening, the sun was about to set over the horizon and a car cruised to a stop and the foot of a boulder. The doors on the driver's and passenger's side opened and two people, a man and a woman stepped out. "It's beautiful out here, Lucian. When was this lake discovered?" "It's always been here. Since we found this mass of land." Lucian shrugged, walking back to the car trunk, pulling it open and bringing out a picnic basket and a mat. Anna made to help Lucian caddy some of the stuff they were to use only to receive a glare which made her laugh. "Why don't you want me to help?" "Because I can do it all by myself?" Lucian asked no one in particular. The beach was close by, so they walked a bit before they got to the beach. Anna stopped and stared for a long time. The sandy beach of the lake was a very light brown and the blue lake sparkled with the evening sun. Bright orange, pink and blue. There were tall palm trees scattered around the b
Anna and Lucian lay flat on their backs. They were already full from eating. They weren't even done with everything in the basket. They still had a dessert of tiramisu to consume, but Anna had suggested resting a bit before eating that. Lucian's arm left the sands and landed flat on Anna's bare thigh. Her short flannel gown rode up and her smooth fair thighs were bare for Lucian to feast on. "Let's go for a swim?" Anna said after a while. Lucian shook his head. "I do not think that it is a good idea." "Why?"Anna asked, lifting half of her body up and supporting it with her elbows. "You just ate, woman. Do you want to swim with a full belly?" Anna stuck out her tongue at him and lay back on the mat, staring up at the sky that was almost midnight blue. "So, what do we do now that we aren't swimming? Watch the sky in silence?" "Let's talk, Anna. Get to know each other. Now's the best time for that. I don't think we've ever had a very meaningful conver
"I know how you feel, Anna. I know you're strong enough to heal from all you went through. You haven't healed and it is very evident. You're holding back your past and it's making you stagnant. You don't want to move on and live a better life." "I do want to! I really want to. But each time I try to live for myself, all I think about is Yvonne how she'd have been proud of me. But now, there's no one to live for. No one can make me proud." "That's the wrong way of thinking. You're not living for anyone. You're living for you and if you don't change that mindset, it's going to take a toll on you." "It's so hard. After all I've been through. Yvonne was a very prominent figure in my life and I promised myself to work hard and make her enjoy the rest of her life, only for her to die before I was even started. There, at the hospital, all my ambitions died. There was nobody to work hard for. I only worked hard to graduate from uni because Yvonne promised that I was going to finish
"Ryan sent me an email. Read out its content, ALEXXIS." ALEXXIS did. It was an apology email. Ryan had stated in it that he was really sorry about how he had behaved back at the pub that day and how he was ready to settle his scores with Kevin. He still wanted to work with him and he hoped Kevin would accept his apology. "Did he attach any cheque to the mail?" "No, boss." ALEXXIS replied. "No chaque was attached to this mail." "Any form of gift?" "Negative." Better. If Ryan had done that, that would have been the end of any partnership he was thinking they'd have. Kevin loathed the idea of adding material things to the apology. It felt like whoever was apologizing was buying his forgiveness and his forgiveness was not to be bought. He forgave anyone willingly, not with a price. "A positive reply. Tell him we have a meeting scheduled by seven tomorrow evening. We have things to talk about." ALEXXIS nodded and tapped furiously against the screen
Anna enjoyed her evening. She hadn't experienced this for a long time and she wanted to relive this moment again. After swimming, Lucian had lifted her up and had kissed her, their wet bodies moving against each other. He lay her down on the beach, not caring if the sharp sand was going to stain their skins. Lucian kissed her body, savored her skin, worshiped her body under the moonlight and made her moan with pleasure. He didn't go further than that and Anna wondered if she'd still live if anything more than that had happened. It was late at night when they got home and Lucian had suggested that they slept together in his room. Anna refused with reasons that he had to wake up really early to be at Ohio for the council meeting. They both retired to their respective rooms and Anna stayed awake for a while before falling asleep. At exactly three am in the night, Anna woke up with a startle. She was dreaming, again. It was the exact dream she had a few days
Lucian was confused. He'd experienced this before but Petl was here to help him come out. Wendy had gone home and the whole house was empty. He thought about contacting Felix. Augustus, yes! But before he did that, he lifted Anna who was still struggling against him and walked towards the bathroom, pushing the door with his feet. He slowly dropped her to the floor, watching her carefully so she didn't hit her head against the wall. He turned on the tap and filled the bath tub with hot water. He turned off the faucet releasing cold water and waited for a few minutes before he turned it off. By the time he returned to the free area in the bathroom, Anna was still, unmoving. "Jesus christ. What's going on in there, Anna?" He started when she started speaking. Not with her own voice. "My arrival is imminent. It is going to be an unforgettable experience. One to be remembered in history. I will destroy you both. I will destroy whatever I come in contact
Anna woke up feeling energized. Lucian was not on the bed beside her and she guessed that he had already left the estate for whatever meeting he had with the council. The curtains were drawn to let light in and when Anna checked the digital clock sitting on the wooden bedside table beside her, it read twelve twelve. She sat up and threw back the covers, gasping in surprise at how long she had slept. Wendy would have knocked on the door with breakfast in hand and that would have been two or three hours ago. Anna rubbed her forehead and sighed. Self conscious about her appearance, she walked to the mirror standing before Lucian's dress stand. Noticing that she was close to being naked in her bikini from last night, she squealed in horror and threw open his wardrobe in search of something to cover up her body. She did not want Wendy to find her looking like she had been savored last night. Lucian's wardrobe was filled with clothes and she pushed really hard before
