Eden began to remove her dress and the entire time she was trying to stop him, but he pulled it away from her body and tossed it to the side, leaving her with her slip dress and a pair of teary eyes. She took a step back from him after her dress was removed, but he quickly grabbed her hand and threw her to the bed.
As if unable to control his desires, he began planting kisses all over her neck and lips. She struggled under him. The entire time, she kept on pushing him and kicking his stomach so he would stay far away from her, but Eden was strong, a bit too strong for a normal man.
“Don’t struggle, I want to make love to you tonight. I will make you feel good.” He vowed as he began to lick across her s

"A married couple are well-suited when both partners usually feel the need for a quarrel at the same time."-Jean Rostand-***“Tell me, Karina, who were you before you came to me?” He asked as they were driving to the town. He hated complete silence and the music was not helping either. Eden thought it was a great opportunity to get her talking so he could understand her better.“Why do you want to know? I thought you said you knew everything about me. Also, I didn’t come to you, you kidnapped me.” She protested.“Yes, I do, from an external perspective, but I couldn’t get down to the very detail, you know. About your hobby, what you like, dislike, the things you’re passionate about. I could easily hack into your browser history to find out but I would rather discover it directly from you.” He reasoned.“Just who are you exactly, Eden? Are you in the mafia

The thought of it alone scared her because she knew how expensive it must be.It didn’t have to be a private jet, riding first class in most airlines could cost her around five times the average salary she used to receive. It was not something she dared to allow crossing her mind.Yet there she was, sitting in a private jet. He had rented it from one of his associate. When she confronted him about the cost, he shrugged it off and told her his friend gave him a discount as a honeymoon gift.“Just what kind of friends do you actually have?” She questioned. It was a rhetorical question but clueless Eden answered it.“They’re just normal people, I guess.” His answer made her shudder from cringe a little bit because Karina knew no

"After a storm, comes a calm."-Matthew Henry-***As the sounds of wave crashing and bird chirping was heard, Karina slowly fluttered her eyes open. She had fallen into such deep slumber she found it difficult to remember what had happened the night before. It was when she turned around and looked at Eden’s face did her memory returned to her.“I failed to escape.” It was the first thought that came to her mind. She felt like crying because her desire to be free could not be fulfilled even though she made the attempt.“Am I really destined to suffer?” She wondered. As she tried to gather her energy, she recalled the memory of herself jumping into the ocean. She still remembered precisely how she gasped for breath.Her chest was hot and cold at the same time, it was as if someone pierced a thousand ice needles into her lungs. She really thought she was going to die last night. She remem

The staff had prepared a table outside of their room, in the patio. A selection of seafood and meat was cooked to perfection. A vase of red rose and varieties of carnation was placed in the middle to sweeten the atmosphere alongside a line of candles.She was wearing a slip dress with a warm robe cover since it was a bit windy that evening and he was wearing the same type of robe as well. They sat down and she gasped in amazement.
