Overall, she thinks the first date went well. He kisses like a man starved. She dared to assume this time that he’s definitely feeling something for her. Even if it’s just lust or physical desire. She’ll take it, anything to begin their relationship.
She slept in the next day. It’s going to be a lazy day for her, just chatting with her family.
Around ten in the morning, she received a message from Christan.
“Hey, how are you today? Have plans to do?”
She finds it… funny. It doesn’t contain any formality or his seriousness. She laughed softly before replying to it.
“Good, thanks. Just lazing around at home. How about you?”
He didn’t reply immediately, but his response came nevertheless.
“Took the kids out. We’re at the park. They asked me if we can invite you. Told them it’s short notice and might disrupt your owns plans.”
Oh… what
Alena realized this version of Christan is very endearing. She couldn’t help but get her hopes up, higher than usual. It actually feels like they’re really dating. Well, they are, but it doesn’t feel like they’ve only just started. In their short calls, she was able to get a glimpse of his daily life. She got a good grasp of his schedule, when his breaks are and when he leaves the office.When Thursday came, she chose a much nicer outfit for the dinner. She started feeling nervous again. She hasn’t asked Christan about it. She’d like it to be a surprise if he’ll be able to come or not. Alena was relieved and the smile on her face was frozen in place when all three of them showed up. The boys kissed her cheeks before sitting down and she hugged them briefly. She looked up at Christan and was surprised when he leaned down and kissed her cheek, too. She knew she’s blushing. Her eyes widened a little as she bit her lip. Did he just&
Christan could tell that something is bothering Alena. They picked her up in the morning and she seemed like her usual self, given how boisterous the boys were. They were very excited to have her today. But still, there were moments her expression would slip and look worried. The boys couldn’t tell. He can.With Alena around, he was dragged by the three of them to join every game.“Don’t you have a dog? It would be nice to play fetch with a dog.” She asked while looking at a couple playing with a Golden Retriever.“Do you want a dog?” Carl asked, glancing quickly at his dad. Christan could interpret it just fine. They would pester him to get a dog if Alena says yes.She thought it over while watching the dog. Smiling, she replied, “Nah. I would like playing with one, but I don’t think I’ll have the time to take care of it.”“We’ll take care of it.” Drew volunteered. Actua
As soon as Alice heard more information about their dad’s plan, she would tell everything to Alena.“He actually made a shortlist and at the top of the list is someone named Tristan Jake Woods. They call him TJ. Seems like a good man but scarred. Literally. He’d been in a vehicular accident right out of college. He’s got some issues with women, apparently. Gold diggers, the usual. And his scars seem to cause him a certain level of insecurity. Other than that, he’s quite the successful businessman. Almost at par with the likes of Christan Taylor.” Alice rattled off from her notes.“Not at all interested, Alice.”“I know, just letting you know what kind of man dad wants for you.”“Someone scarred, really?” As soon as she said it, Alena felt bad. She’s not the type to judge someone based on appearance.Alice made a disgruntled noise. “Alena.” Her tone carried a w
Alena is shaking. She did something in public that may cause her family some trouble. Just what kind of deal did her dad had with the Woods? She snorted at realizing something. Reeds. Woods. It’s not funny. She walked quickly, momentarily forgetting where she parked her car. She turned right and spotted her vehicle. Behind her, Christan walked the same pace as her. He watched her escape. Isn’t she planning on talking to him? Why did she just leave?When she opened the door of her car, that’s when she noticed his presence. He was walking towards her and she’s not sure how to feel. Half of her is relieved to see him. Half of her is terrified. Is he angry?“I’m sorry you had to witness that.” By the time she finished that sentence, he was already in front of her.They stared at each other, until she felt like squirming under his piercing gaze.“You did well.” He stated as he reached for her curls.
“I need to be inside you now. We’ll have more fun later.” He declared and she readily nodded. She adjusted herself towards the center of the bed, with him crawling above her.When she moved to take her panties off, he stopped her.“Leave it.”Right. It’s flimsy anyway. She thought as she spread her legs wide for him. He touched her again, preparing her, making her terribly wet to easily receive his girth. She could remember the first time he entered her. He stretched her walls to its limit, and it will happen again now. As he stimulated her for natural lubrication, his mouth found its way towards her breasts. The lace material didn’t actually hide her assets. If anything, it highlighted it. The design made it so that her nipples looked like the center of the flowers. He licked them over the lace and the rough texture of his tongue and the lace made her squirm. Her chest heaved up and down. The motion stirring up his imag
“I understand.” He told her before cupping her chin. Her eyes looked vulnerable as they stared at him. He kissed her deeply and she cling to his arm.Afterwards, he asked, “Since he’s your dad and you know him better than I do, what do you recommend I do? I should talk to him and make him accept me, right?”Alena scrunched up her face. “That’s the thing. He made a rule for us girls about dating.”“He did? What is it?” He gently embraced her again and her eyes wandered around his room.“When we date someone, we have to bring him home on the first date or the first week. He… he interviews the guys for their motives, intentions… to make sure they’re serious about his daughters. He also checks their backgrounds, personality and character. Pretty much the usual, but he prefers them to be personal. You know, acting like part of the family. Not hiding too many things. Open. Sho
She groaned, sure that her family would’ve seen the same articles. Well, it’s not as if it was a secret to them. Her dad would be the one getting a hard time. It’s his fault anyway. Dragging her into an agreement without getting her consent. Serves him right.“It’s not that hard to figure out the truth. Their speculations were mostly on point, but there is some damage there. We can just let it settle down on its own. It’s more important that I get your dad’s approval and help him if he would let me.”Aww… she felt soft inside at his concern for her stubborn and difficult dad.“You’d do that?”“Anything to let him accept me.” He returned the phone to Carl and pressed a kiss on Alena’s lips.Carl’s not sure if he should be happy or if he should be grossed out. A quick kiss is fine. No need to drag it out in front of young eyes.Alena thought the sa
Maybe he should’ve done it differently. She’s still young, after all. She probably wanted a proper proposal. He grimaced. He should’ve made preparations before blurting that out. Still, he simply wanted to create an opening for Drew’s question. He’s sure Alena would agree.He stood up and approached her. He took her into his arms.“Don’t worry. I’ll give you a proper proposal. I just wanted to make my intentions clear. You’ve been hearing the boys asking about a marriage or a wedding. You shouldn’t feel embarrassed when they do. They already know that’s where this is going.”Alena took a deep breath at his explanation. His words are too sweet. He’s gonna give her a proper proposal? She doesn’t need one! She’s fine with this kind of proposal.She chuckled before hugging him, too. “I’m just happy. You made me very excited. I look forward to our future toget
