ALENA

I was at work as early as six on a hectic Friday after leaving work the previous day at ten. It proved pretty much worth it, as I had managed to carry out most of the duties I had and clear up all my paperwork. I had attended many meetings, answered many stressful phone calls, and dealt with tough journalists in various interviews regarding my life and my work.

I was glad the day was almost over and I'd finally get time to be with Dylan. With the weekend around the corner, I made sure I cleared up my schedule. I needed to spend time with him peacefully.

I had only had a cup of coffee and yogurt this morning. I wasn't that hungry yet because I was busy, but I knew I'd dig into my favorite food once I got home.

I stood in the elevator that took me from the ground floor, where I had been handing out important files, to the executive floor. I was the only one in that elevator, browsing through a magazine with Mom's most recent designs and achievements. She was doing great, and Dad w

    ALENAI threw up my hands in surrender and leaned my elbows against the desk. This was way too much for me to handle. Unless Hank had a mysterious twin who spoke like him and acted exactly like him, I was a hundred percent sure it was him I had seen and conversed with. I wasn't crazy. He was playing mind games with me and with Gwen.I seriously felt horrible for her. She was madly in love with him and trying to be committed to him, yet he was just going to break her heart. That was most likely going to be consequential not only for Gwen but for my relationship as well.Why couldn't I be happy without any obstacles for once in my life? Right when I thought I had found happiness, another source of sorrow emerged.I took deep breaths. Everything was going to be fine. We'd figure it out together. Nothing was going to ruin my relationship with Dylan. No one could separate us. We'd have a happy ever after with our beautiful children.Yes. There is no room for anything else outside of that p

    ALENA"I don't want to control you, Alena. You are free to make your own decisions because I know you always think things through before acting, and you can control your own life and decisions. I'm just your guide and companion.""I'm sorry, Dylan. I'm sorry I didn't listen to what we agreed on.""Hey, don't feel bad about it. I'm not mad at you. I just want to know what's going on. You can talk to me.""I don't want to drag you into stuff that'll end up ruining your life or getting you hurt.""Would it be fair for you to endure the pain all by yourself? I'm your better half, and I deserve to know what's bothering you and who's troubling you. Did Hank do something to you again? Why do you think he's a bad guy? I think he's a bad guy as well, but you seem to have something strong against him. What has he done to you?""The things he says disturb me. His jokes are creepy. It's like he touched me on purpose, and he wants to hurt me.""Why? Why would he want to hurt you? Does he have a mo

    ALENA"I love making you addicted and getting intoxicated," he murmured. I licked his lips and held onto his shoulders. I nodded, not breaking our eye contact.Dylan pulled out of me almost completely, and he thrust back into me powerfully, hitting the right spot that made my vision blur. I held on tightly as he thrust into me, making my head spin.He kept on going at an insane pace, and my hips rocked back and forth, meeting his urgency and demand. He made love to me passionately in a way that made me understand that I was completely his.He made me orgasm three times, creaming his shaft until he climaxed and exploded into me. His head dropped onto my shoulder, and he hugged me. We were both breathless in each other's arms.When we let go of each other, we were both smiling and panting. "Loved it?" I asked him."As usual. Man, you drive me insane. I've never loved any woman the way I love you. I love you, honey," he replied in a deep, manly tone. I knew I satisfied him, and it made m

    ALENA"If you tickle me like that again, I'm going to end up sick. I've never laughed so much in my entire life," I said, recovering from the fit of laughter I was in all thanks to Dylan, who wouldn't stop tickling me until my stomach ached and tears spilled out of my eyes."Anything to see my princess smile," he said, pinching my cheeks playfully. I gave him a cute pout, and he pecked my lips."Come on. Let's find you a cute outfit to wear tonight."Dylan walked ahead of me, and I jumped onto his back and locked my legs around his torso. I crossed my hands on his rock-hard chest, dragging my lips up and down his neck teasingly.He opened the double doors to our walk-in closet, and he walked in, closing the door behind him. He put me down on the island and opened a drawer.He took out a bottle of attractively packaged body lotion that must have cost a fortune. He opened the bottle and squeezed some into his hands. He rubbed his palms together and pressed his hands to my cheeks, pattin

    ALENAI met Harry by the door, ready to knock. He was holding some files and an envelope. He had Jim sitting on his shoulder. I smiled when I saw him. He spread his wings and flew to sit on my shoulder. I was glad he could recognize me now, and we were getting used to each other."Good evening, ma'am. I thought you might want to feed Jim tonight and hang around.""Yes, please. Thank you, Harry. You're here for Dyl?""Yes. I'll wait out here for him if he's busy at the moment.""He'll be right out, but I'll tell him you're here for him anyway.""Thank you.""No need. I'm right here." Dylan stopped me, petting Jim's head. "Give me five minutes, Alena. I'll be with you shortly," he continued, pecking my forehead. He was wearing denim ripped jeans, a white Henley shirt, and a red leather jacket. He looked perfect as usual."Sure," I replied with a smile.Dylan and Harry walked to the library, speaking to each other softly. Whatever they were talking about must have been important and priv

    ALENAOur destination was one of our houses in a secluded location out of the busy town. It was normally up for rent, but Steve had told me that it was unoccupied for the entire week for renovations. I thought it'd be amazing to stargaze at the rooftop terrace and end our drive watching the beautiful night sky.I kept on stealing glances at Dylan, realizing he was staring at me the entire time with eyes that made my heart melt. Just his stare was capable of making me smile and fantasize about the wildest things in my head.He turned on the radio and turned up the volume. All along, we had been the ones talking with no background music. The radio station that he tuned into was playing Justin Timberlake's Mirrors. I knew that song perfectly well, and I loved it."Do you ever listen to music?" I asked him out of interest, nodding to the tune."Of course. I'm not all about making money, you know. I have fun sometimes too. I know this song, actually.""Hmmm.... Liar. Prove it.""Well, I me

    ALENAI rolled to my side and looked at Dylan. He looked drawn to them with a small smile on his face. He must have been missing his mom."Are you thinking of your mom?" I asked him softly. He smiled broadly and rolled to his side, facing me."Yes. I miss her a lot, but I know she's watching over me in a better place.""You never talk about her, and you don't hang her pictures. It still hurts.""Yes. It's hard for me to talk about her and look at her pictures without thinking about it.""If you ever feel sad, you can talk to me. I'm here for you.""I know. Thank you. Tonight's beautiful and amazing. You are beautiful, and I'm lucky to have you."I leaned in, and our noses touched. I pressed my lips against his, and I kissed him. He responded passionately, his hand firmly holding my butt. We sat up, still kissing, and the kiss got steamier and hungrier every second.I removed Dylan's jacket and put it aside. His shirt followed, and I put my hands on his perfectly sculptured torso. I kis

    ALENAI woke up tangled in bed with the love of my life. Both of us were naked in each other's arms. Thinking about our night together made me smile. He was so amazing in every sense of the word.I quietly pulled out of his arms, hoping not to wake him. I succeeded in getting him out of bed without waking him. He must have been really tired because our night together had been quite long and exciting.He looked peaceful in his sleep with his hair messed up. He had scratches and hickeys on his chest and neck. I smiled. They were the evidence of our passion. I loved seeing him at peace without worrying about work or problems with his friends.I stood up quietly and tip-toed to the bathroom. The red marks all over my body, especially on my breasts and neck, made me smile brightly. This was something I dreamt of from the moments when I started falling in love with Dylan. I had no idea how I had managed to pull through and where I had gotten the strength to hold on to my marriage, but I was

    ALENA’S EPILOGUE Our black SUV pulled up in Mom's driveway a little late in the afternoon and we all got out of the car. Amelia was snuggled in her daddy's arms, a place I knew was one of her favourites in the whole world and the way he paid enough attention to her and kept her smiling just made their bond stronger.Aidan and Iris were on either of my sides each holding each of my hands tightly as we walked up the driveway to the main entrance. We had all been looking forward to this family gathering for some time now. Spending time together, catching up on each other's lives and just being there for each other was something we all enjoyed. We were a family and meeting up together like this was always a pleasure."Thank you so much, Mommy, for buying me these pretty sparkly shoes and sparkly dress," Iris squealed excitedly, jumping up and down on her feet as we walked, staring admirably at her new outfit. "I feel like a princess," she added, giving me a brilliant smile that revealed

    FIVE YEARS LATERDYLAN’S EPILOGUEThey say that you will never truly understand something until it happens to you.I honestly never paid much attention to this saying until realistic things happening in my own life started weighing much on it and opening my eyes to how everything I was once told about this big mystery called life started unfolding before my own eyes and manifesting in my life.Many a time, Dad would tell me about how marriage and fatherhood changed his life greatly for the better and it barely made any meaningful sense to me, but right now in this very moment, bonding with my baby and showering her with unconditional love made it all make perfect sense.There was something inexplicably intoxicating about seeing our precious bundle of joy happy with a radiant smile on her face. That smile had to be the prettiest thing I had ever seen, for it extended deep into my soul and filled me with joy. I couldn't resist smiling back at her with an even brighter smile, placing the

    ALENADylan twirled me around, dipping me as he leaned forward closer to me. Staring at the masterpiece of a husband before me, my breathing became shallow and my heart felt heavy in my chest.Dylan pulled me back up into his arms and I rested my head on his chest and let him sway my body as the chorus rolled in. The song twirled like thread around us, the rhythm of our bodies simply passionate and majestic. I was deep in love."Alena, you're the inspiration for this precious song, and I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on. So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone. And I can't wait to get you home, just to let you know, you are...""The love of my life," we whispered together in unison as I joined him in saying some of the lyrics along to the song playing.I was crying. He was way too sweet. I never imagined he'd be able to love me this much and take our relationship to a whole new level.Couples eventually started joining us on the dancefloor. I looked

    ALENADylan pulled me towards him gently but firmly by my waist and he placed his lips firmly on mine, cupping my cheek with his hand.His lips were soft, almost silken against my own. Our lips fitted perfectly as if they were meant for each other. Moving against each other, feeling each other.Warmth blossomed in my chest, sparks igniting. This was beautiful and magical, a dream come true. When we pulled away from each other, the crowd was cheering loudly for us, clapping and everything.We both chuckled, holding hands tightly. We turned and faced everyone. Their cheers grew even louder and more enthusiastic.I could see Mom sitting in front with Benjamin, Steve and Celeste. Ezra was in front on the other side with Axel, Sophie and Elizabeth. Everyone else followed behind them. They all looked happy for us.Dylan and I stepped down from the wedding altar and we proceeded down the aisle. Everyone rose and started throwing confetti at us as we walked out. It was perfect.I looked up at

    ALENA"Of course, I will. When can we start making the preparations?"Dylan laughed, pinching my nose. "Silly, I mean today. Everything is already set. You just have to get ready and walk down the aisle.""You're kidding right?""I'm dead serious, honey. Everything's the way you wanted it and mostly your choice. I know this isn't our first wedding, but I want us to consider this our actual wedding because the previous wasn't even one. This time around, I'm marrying you willingly with pride."I laughed, failing to believe this. "How? I can't believe this.""Believe it, baby. We're getting married and this time around the proper way. I've been so excited to finally take you as my wife the proper way and give you the joy you deserve. I want to marry you, Alena.""Dylan, how did you even think of this? Just how?" I asked him, blinking away my tears.He wiped away my tears with his hands. "Because I want to see you happy and make your dreams come true. It's called love, honey. You've drown

    ALENADylan opened the door of his car on my side and I stepped out, taking his hand which he had extended politely towards me to help me out. I murmured a polite thank you with a smile on my face as he helped out and closed the door once I was standing next to him.We linked arms and he gave me a small peck on my forehead before we started walking down the pathway that led to the dock of a beautiful lake.There were bright heart shaped lanterns hanging on tree branches and rose petals artistically scattered on the pathway we were walking on. Star shaped twinkle lights were wound around branches and lining the pathway. It was breathtakingly beautiful.It was a beautiful sunset and it felt extraordinarily magical with the water in the lake glimmering beneath the beautiful sky, looking calm and inviting.I had no idea if it was the beautiful weather and scene that added the special magical effect or if it was the exceptional man right next to me, holding me like his entire life depended

    DYLANI loved it when she played dirty. I loved seeing that side of her that only I knew. I loved this state where she was raw, untamed and fierce sexy."Naughty girl," I chuckled, smacking her butt firmly. She winced, her lips cracking into a wider smile."If I am naughty, what are you?" she purred, pressing her body firmly into mine. She bit her bottom lip tenderly, looking at me with lust filled eyes."Your sexy husband who loves bringing the naughtiness out of you." I smacked Alena's butt one more time, pressing her body into mine at the same time."Ah," she moaned, throwing her head back. She loved it.I took my spoon and scooped some ice cream onto it. I trailed the spoon from her earlobe down to her throat. She shivered, looking at my hand. "Cold," she breathed."I'll set you on fire," I promised and with those words, I smashed my lips onto her neck, earning a loud moan from her.I held her firmly close to me by her butt as I attacked her neck with deep kisses, soft nibbles and

    DYLANShe took her wine glass from me and looked up at me, taking a step closer. "Careful what you wish for, Princess. I want to, I can and I will eat you," I said, closing the small gap between us."Is that a promise?" she asked me, running her finger slowly down my torso. I had been working out a lot to get back in shape. All my hard work hadn't gone to waste."It is," I affirmed, brushing my lips against her smooth skin. "And you know I never break my promises."Alena stood on her toes and she pecked my lips. She held both of our glasses, looking deep into my eyes with her bottom lip between her white teeth. I poured the wine and took my glass from her."What are we toasting to?" she asked me."To us. To our lives, love, freedom and everything we ever wanted that we can proudly say we achieved.""Cheers to that," she said, raising her glass."Cheers." We clicked our glasses and washed down the red wine together in one go. We had a second round and we drank the wine in the same mann

    DYLAN"No," she mumbled quietly. She was crying."Show me your face. I want to look at you," I spoke softly."Do I have to?" she replied quietly. She sounded cute and in my head, I could see a cute pout on her lips as she said so. That made me smile."Yes. You have to," I murmured, kissing her temples. Alena slowly pulled away from me and she sat up, facing me. She had tears in her eyes and a few had fallen down her cheeks. I wiped them away using my thumbs."And why is my beautiful princess crying when we're supposed to be celebrating?" I asked her, taking both of her warm hands into mine. I planted sweet kisses on both of them and looked up at her. "I don't know," she mumbled, looking at our hands. "Tears of relief if there's anything of that sort I guess.""You don't have to hide your feelings from me, you know. It's okay to cry if you feel like it. We all express joy and relief in different ways.""Does that mean I can bawl my eyes out and you'll still be okay with it?""Hmmm...
