Bright No moment in my life has ever made me feel as human as this one. And I’m not saying it because of the pleasure or the skin-on-skin contact, not even because of how wild it felt to have her beneath me, her body fitting mine like it had been sculpted just for me since the beginning of time.I say it because of what happened inside my chest. Because of that soft, internal earthquake that shook me and made me look at her like she was the only woman I could ever love in this life. And maybe that’s because… she was everything. I don’t know how it happened, but she truly became everything to me.When Sophia pulled off my shirt so desperately, every thought in my head disappeared. They just stopped existing. There was no past, no future. Only the now. Only her. I felt her hunger, her need to have me, and also that hint of vulnerability she always hid so well behind her confidence. I felt completely powerful in that moment, but I also felt exposed and vulnerable myself. There was a wav
Sophia At this point, the only thing on my mind was enjoying what was happening between Bright and me. I desperately took off his shirt, revealing his perfectly defined abs and the toned muscles in his arms. I bit my lip when I saw how sexy he looked, exuding his unique, masculine body scent mixed with his woody cologne.He got back on top of me after quickly removing my blouse, as if his desire left him no room for control. He was rough, possessive, but incredibly romantic when he touched me. My breasts weren’t fully exposed because my bra still covered them, but Bright could see the sheer black lace that adorned my body. That kind of lingerie drove him crazy. It was like I had planned it, without even realizing it.Bright looked at me with lust in his eyes, completely unable to turn back. What was about to happen couldn’t be avoided. Thank God. I didn’t want it to stop. I wanted to live in an endless night of passion with Bright. Feeling his body pressed against mine filled the voi
SophiaThe words Bright was saying were so... I mean... How many nights have I fallen asleep imagining everything he was describing? How many times have I closed my eyes and imagined Bright and me growing old together?There hadn't been a single night since I realized I loved him that I didn’t dream about us spending the rest of our lives together. The hope Bright planted in my mind was so strong, I was terrified of ending up in tears, with my heart shattered if none of it came true. Betting on something that big also came with the risk of getting deeply hurt if it didn’t work out. Bright and I could thrive together, but we could just as easily destroy each other if we wanted to.“If you dare break my heart, Bright... I swear...” I clenched my teeth, filled with anger, furious at how deeply I felt for him.“I’m not going to hurt you. My heart is yours. From the day we got married, I knew you were going to change my life forever, but I never imagined it would be this much. You've made
Sophia I didn’t think he would make up his mind so quickly after I gave him an ultimatum. I didn’t believe that, after everything, he would make a decision that emotionally favored me, because he was always too busy carrying resentment and fear. I could never truly blame him, but today I reached my limit. I was exhausted. And that’s when he realized I was serious, that there was no turning back from my decision. That’s when Bright understood that I didn’t want this to continue, that I couldn’t take it anymore, and he chose to face his fears. If I had known that pressuring him would make him decide so soon, I might have done it earlier, though I wouldn’t have felt good about it.Still, I wasn’t entirely sure how certain he was about what he was saying. I had been in his position before, and I knew what it felt like to be afraid and confused, and his case was even worse, because I had hurt Bright. It made perfect sense for him to fear being hurt again. I wasn’t sure how much he truly
Sophia My eyes were wide open when I heard Bright’s words. I had no idea what was going on with him. Was this real, or was he trying to play a joke on me?“It’s not a joke, Sophia. I’ve acted like an idiot because I was scared, but I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to lose you. And most importantly… I don’t want our love to die.” At first, my heart raced. I thought he was toying with me. What he was saying couldn’t be real, not after the way we had treated each other down there. And I wasn’t sure if my ultimatum had actually worked on him. “I feel like if I leave today, I won’t have another chance to come back. What terrifies me the most isn’t leaving, it’s living with the regret of knowing I had the chance to be with you and didn’t take it because I was afraid. That’s not who I am. I always face my fears, and this time can’t be the exception. I’ll admit I’m terrified, this is the scariest thing I’ve ever felt, but I love you. I love you, Sophia. Will you give me a chance to be w
Bright Sophia pushed me away abruptly, as if I had committed a crime. If kissing her made me guilty, then I should be sentenced to life in prison, because I loved doing it. There was nothing I loved more in life than kissing Sophia. She was angry with me. No, furious, and she looked damn adorable with her frowning, authoritative face. Her anger was real, and I didn’t intend to downplay what she was feeling. But I had decided that something needed to change in me that day, and I was going to give her the answer she had been looking for, one I hadn’t been able to give because of my fears.I wanted to be with Sophia —I always had— but denying it had been easier than facing it. After Sophia hurt me, I decided it was time to cut ties with her. But fate, our choices, and the universe brought us back together. Things weren’t the same as before. All this time, a baby had been growing inside her without us knowing. Fear had blinded me from realizing that this time, I was the one who played
