Colin rested his head on my shoulder and nibbled on my ears. His hot breath immobilized half of my body. Inside my mind, a voice kept telling me to give it to him.But… I couldn't say it out loud.Growing up, Mom taught me that girls needed to protect themselves and that we shouldn't offer ourselves to anyone recklessly. She also told me that even when in a relationship, we shouldn't lose ourselves.As a result, I was particularly conservative about this kind of thing. Even though Colin and I had been living together for quite some time, we had only kissed and hugged each other—nothing more.Since we were neighbors for more than 20 years, Colin knew about my family values. Therefore, he never forced himself upon me. He never coerced me into making a difficult situation. Instead, he held himself back time after time. "Give it to me please, babe. I've been waiting for you. I want you." Colin was holding himself back as he asked for my consent.Like always, he didn't want to put me
My phone's speaker was loud, and Colin was close to me. He heard everything Winston had said. His eyes darkened, and as a punishment, he pinched my earlobe. A strange sensation coursed through my body, and I moaned out loud.Panicking, I covered my mouth and shot daggers at Colin. He gave me a mischievous grin and kissed me on the cheek."Luna, are you alright? Do you need help?" Winston asked, thinking that something had happened to me when he heard my voice.It was Colin's turn to sulk and my turn to mock him. If I allowed him to "help" me, Colin would go crazy."Oh, nothing. I stubbed my toes. Uhm, I'm not coming over today. I have things to do. Just have dinner without me."After I hung up, the frenzy in Colin's eyes had already disappeared. His body was still tense, but it wasn't as hot as before. However, his hands continued to tease me."Colin, let's go out. Dinner's ready soon."Colin tossed. Now, I was on top of him. He rained kisses on my lips, cheek, and neck. They we
The dining table was square, so everyone sat according to their factions. Colin and I sat on one side; Andrew occupied one side alone; Jasmine and her men took another side.Right before I asked Andrew if he had prepared food for Queenie and when we could eat, she slowly walked into everyone's view with the wall as her support.Her face was pale, and her body was so skinny and frail that it looked almost skeletal. Without the wall, she might not even be able to stand upright. Worried about her safety, I wanted to get up to help her. But Andrew was ahead of me. He dashed to her side and carried her in his arms.Queenie struggled awkwardly for a while. But she was too weak to offer any resistance. In the end, she relented."Queenie, you're sick. Stay on your bed. You shouldn't be here," I told her earnestly."I'm fine. It's nothing serious anyway. We have guests. I ought to greet them. It's already very rude of me to appear this late."Queenie brushed her hair, trying to make herse
However, anyone with an ounce of intelligence would comprehend that Queenie was poking at Jasmine's selfish agenda when Jasmine said she wanted to be taken care of by Colin solely.I had to admit that Jasmine demonstrated exceptional patience. Despite being mocked and insulted, her friendly facade never broke. She continued with a smile, "You're reading way too much into it, Queenie."Somebody definitely felt guilty now. It wasn't Queenie or me, for sure."Knowing your honest character, Jasmine, I'm sure you won't guilt-trip Colin into repaying the favor you gave him. Besides, why would we doubt you? Anyway, since you're new here, you probably don't know about this. Colin is very popular at Jesselton College."Many women know that he's taken, but they keep throwing themselves at him. They have no shame at all. Fortunately, Colin is a man of integrity. He rejects all those beautiful, young, or rich women and remains loyal to Lulu."Those people can only envy her. I mean, why would
"That's right, Queenie. You should eat more. Look at how sick you are. You need to eat more if you want to recover sooner. Once you're healed, we'll go shopping together!" I snuggled up to Queenie's side, but she grabbed my noggin and pushed me away. "Stay away from me. I don't need you to remind me of how single I am."Colin and I looked at each other before rubbing the tip of our noses. It wasn't a huge reaction, but we did it simultaneously, showcasing how synchronized we were.Andrew and Queenie noticed our unanimity and laughed out loud, especially Queenie. She was sick, yet she cackled the loudest.Abashed, I playfully raised my fist to threaten her. Andrew was very protective of Queenie, so he immediately put down his cutlery to shield Queenie. Colin sat silently as we played and bantered among ourselves. However, his eyes were smiling too.He ruffled my hair affectionately and gave me another generous portion of food, asking me to eat well.Having not seen each other for
Colin was sensible enough to make sure I wouldn't be jealous. Fine. I'd add back the 20 flowers that I had taken out of my mental notebook.Happily and obediently, I went to the room to get changed. As soon as I removed my top, Colin came in. He saw my bare skin, and his gaze immediately sharpened. He slowly walked toward me. I saw danger in his eyes.Recalling the steamy session that we had just now, my cheeks reddened and turned warm. I was clothed back then, so I was protected. But now, I was only covered by my bra. My straps were my only protection. I was afraid that Colin might be unable to hold back. Colin closed the door behind him. To make sure that it was shut tight, he even leaned back to close it. Then, he approached me. Following my widening gaze, he pulled me into his arms. His hands brushed against my smooth back, and he kissed my shoulder.Then, he planted more kisses on my shoulder and back. My bra straps tugged against my skin. I didn't know what Colin was feeling
Before I knew it, I was thrown on top of a bed in a luxurious room. When did Colin book a room? Why wasn't I told about it?Then, Colin climbed on top of me and began raining kisses on my torso. I couldn't resist him."What are you doing? I want to have tacos," I asked with labored breath."But I want to have you," he replied. His body was so hot, and his voice was husky, teasing my nerves.Realizing that I couldn't escape, I stopped struggling. I allowed myself to be carried away by his affection."I want you. Can you give it to me?" he asked shamelessly."I don't know." I looked away, too shy to answer.For a couple in their honeymoon period, "I don't know" was a magical phrase. They could interpret it however they wanted, and what they wanted would always come true."Stay here. I'll take a shower. Wait for me. And don't ever think of running away," he warned before entering the bathroom. Then, he shot me a seductive grin."Okay."Why would I run away? I had to face this so
Perhaps I felt threatened by Jasmine's presence. Or perhaps I finally came to terms with my feelings. Or maybe the ambiance was just right.Giving myself to my probational boyfriend was a leap of faith, to say the least. Yet I was well aware of what I was doing. I did not resist it.No, it had to be because I fell in love with Colin. And this love ran deep in me. It was rooted in my heart. Perhaps I took it for granted because it was Colin.And tonight, I would give myself to him. I would become his. It felt rather romantic but nerve-racking. My heart was pounding so loudly.Slowly, the urge to flee waned. Replacing it was the feeling of anticipation.The main lights in the room had been switched off. Only two bed lights remained. The dim room was shrouded in mystery.When I left the bathroom, Colin was looking at his phone, topless. His muscular body continued to entice me. Maybe he was born to seduce humans.When he heard me, he lifted his head, and his flawless face flashed m
