Alexander dragged himself on the next day. He had to go for his fight on Saturday and didn't know what excuse to make to avoid Serenity's questions. After office when he returned, Serenity came down to his apartment with food that aunt Eugene had sent.

With his admission came the realization that she had unnecessarily misunderstood him. He had always loved her. If she hadn’t been so stupid, they would have been married by now."Alex, where do I keep Serenity's stuff?" Asked Grant, coming up behind them with Serenity's luggage.

    It was a wild, searing kiss that heated her whole body. His tongue plunged into her parted mouth and he tasted her like a hungry predator, not able to contain himself anymore. His arm left the wall and went around her waist pulling her closer and crushing her against his hard body. His tongue played with hers, making her surrender completely to the intense and wild kiss. His body was already on fire, his kiss was full of passion too and it melted Serenity to the core of her heart. He was all she'd been craving the whole of last year. Now that he was with her, she couldn't help but hold him close. Her fingers tangled in his silky hair as she moaned into his mouth. He kissed and kissed her more till she was completely breathless."Oh, God, I've wanted to do this for so long," he said in between kisses. She couldn't move out of his arms, not that she wanted to.

Alexander took Alexa from her arms and held her to his chest, nervously so as not to hurt her."She's so tiny. What's her name?" He asked, slowly rocking Alexa.
