Introduction

“Baby…” he says as he enters the room, his footsteps barely making a sound against the soft carpet. His presence fills the space with a gentle warmth, and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee is a tantalizing invitation to wakefulness.

“Are you awake?” he asks. His voice, a soothing balm to my sleepy ears, caresses me, pulling me from the depths of slumber. I stir and my eyelids flutter open, a soft smile gracing my lips as I turn to face him.

His eyes sparkle with affection as they meet mine, and the warmth of his gaze envelops me like a comforting embrace. He holds out our mug, a signature to our shared mornings, and I reach out to collect it from his hands. The rich flavorful brew dances on my tongue before I even take a sip. It’s perfect, exactly how I like it on mornings like this. “Thank you very much, Boss,” I murmur, my gratitude louder than my voice.

With a sigh of contentment, he sinks into the bed next to me, his movements as smooth and graceful as a dancer’s. As he leans in for a kiss, the morning sun paints his face and chest with a golden glow, accentuating the strong, masculine features that lie beneath his confident smirk – the very smirk that never fails to send a thrill down my spine. He’s made it crystal clear that I’m not to call him ‘boss’ except on certain occasions, like right now, when his dominating gaze carries a hint of playfulness. I can’t help but smile as his lips brush against mine, a familiar warmth spreading through my body like a comforting embrace.

“Would you like to go on an adventure with me?” He asks, his eyes glittering with excitement.

The thought of spending time alone with him sends a shiver down my spine, and I know better than to ask him why, when, or where.

I respond, with sparkles in my eyes that have to be. “Of course, I’d love to!”

We kiss again, this time inhaling each other’s breaths. My lips soften and part, and his tongue teases mine. I almost sigh. This is not exactly what I wanted for myself at the beginning, but here we are, happy – I guess, as his strong grip tightens on my gentle arm and mine relaxes in submission. It’s just the both of us, melting into each other’s skin, drowning in each other’s scents, and tasting each other’s souls.

I let my thoughts wander, recalling everything that has led to where I am right now. What exactly happened with us? And how have both our lives spiraled into the exact position that we are in now?
