View MoreAs the soft morning light filtered through the stained glass windows of Samara's bedroom, she sighed for the umpteenth time as she got ready for her wedding. It was a picture-perfect day for a wedding. Or so it seemed. Clad in her silken white wedding gown, Samara stood at the mirror of her bedroom. Her gaze lingered on her reflection, but her mind was far away. As she reached for the intricate pearl hairpin to adorn her upswept hair, a feeling of dread and uncertainty washed over her. It was as if the weight of the impending nuptials bore down upon her, threatening to crush the fragile joy that had carried her this far. "What if this is a mistake?" she whispered to her reflection. She lowered her gaze, her fingers still grasping the hairpin, now forgotten in her hands. Her eyes fell on the engagement ring that adorned her ring finger, and her mind raced to recall the day Damien had proposed. It had been very unexpected, but followed by a magical moment, filled with pleasure, love
Frederick's blood ran cold at Caroline's words. "She knows?" he repeated, his voice barely above a whisper.Caroline nodded, tears once again brimming in her eyes. "I told her. I couldn't lie to her, Frederick. She noticed the awkward mood in the house, and asked."The room seemed to shrink around them as Frederick tried to process Caroline's confession. Eleanor knew. The thought sent a shiver down his spine."What...what did she say?" he asked, his voice barely a whisper.Caroline's shoulders slumped, her face etched with pain. "She was...disappointed. Hurt. But she also said that we needed to make up our minds, and do the right thing.""And... what's the right thing?" Frederick asked, his heart pounding in his chest.Caroline shook her head, the strands of her hair brushing against her cheeks. "No need. You already said you were going back to your wife." she stepped forward, placing her hands on Frederick's shoulders. "Or have you changed your mind to be with me?"."I can't do it, C
Colonel Frederick Smyth felt sore in every part of his body, but the pain couldn't compare to the anguish pulsating in his heart. He had succumbed to his desires, indulging in a guilty pleasure that now tormented his soul. His lustful escapade with Caroline had not only left him riddled with guilt but also disappointment that he had betrayed the woman he had vowed to love and cherish. The hours passed like days as Frederick paced his room, wracked with anxiety and regret. His mind was in a whirlwind as he replayed the events of the night before, each memory more excruciating than the last. The image of Caroline's face, those luscious lips that had drawn him in with such ease, continued to haunt him. "What have I done?" he muttered to himself, his hands running through his hair in frustration. He knew the answer, of course, yet he still found himself searching for a way to make it all disappear.The days that followed were a blur of sleepless nights and wracking sobs. Frederick found
Frederick swallows hard as he approaches Eleanor where she was seated quietly in the living room, busy knitting. It was her favorite pastime. He has observed this while living with her. He sighs quietly. He knew she must be disappointed in him after what she had seen the previous day. The silent treatment was killing him, and he needed to speak to her and clear the air.“Eleanor..." He calls her name softly, his voice quacking with fear. She turns abruptly away from what she was doing and looks up at him.“Can we talk?" Please". He begs. He needed her forgiveness. She has been so nice to him, taking him in and treating his wounds. It pained him to know he has paid her back this way.“I will ask some questions, and you have to tell me nothing but the truth". She replies instead.Frederick nods fervently. Whatever pleased her, he was ready to comply.“Did you lie to me about being married?" Her first question came.Frederick looked at her, abashed by her question. “I didn't lie. I am m
“Caroline, how could you?!" Eleanor yelled at her daughter. She had dragged her out to Frederick's room to her room.Caroline sits quietly on the bed, looking anywhere else but at her mother.“Caroline! I am talking to you". Her mother says sternly, commanding her to look at her.“What do you want me to say mother?" She snaps. “We're both adults, and we both consented to it".“He is a married man!" Eleanor shouts, and Caroline froze instantly at the information. “Oh, you didn't know?" She shook her head. “He has a wife, Caroline". Her mother reiterated.“I'm...I'm sorry". She stutters. Her mother shakes her head at her in disappointment.“I have feelings for him mother". She confesses.“Didn't you just hear me say he is married?" Her mother says with annoyance.“Feelings can't be controlled mother. The heart always wants what it wants regardless".“What are you saying?" Her mother asks sceptically.“I have never felt like this for any man before". She exhales loudly, “I'm going to
Closing her eyes, Samara felt her body quake as she felt his touch. She was really going through with this, she thought within herself nervously.Suddenly he rose to his full height and lifted her up in his arms. He kissed her breasts, lifting his head briefly to admire them with savage, sultry eyes before returning to run his tongue over the hard peaks that grew even tighter from his touch. He tugged on them gently with his lips while pleasure snapped his body taut at the slight breathless moan that was ripped from Samara’s throat. He lifted his face again and looked at her. The sight of her head thrown back in languid ecstasy made him fear he could not be gentle taking her. He clenched his teeth as passion inflamed him, drove him to lay her down on the bed so that he could free himself from the confines of his trousers.Samara fell silent as she beheld him, fully aroused, poised over her. “Damien, I am frightened.” She suddenly says.He knelt beside her and stroked her hair. “My
Colonel Frederick Smyth moaned softly as he felt a wonderful sensation below his torso. It felt so good, he wanted it to reach further down where he ached more to be touched. And just like his thoughts were listened to, he felt warm hands touch him below. He grew hard instantly, and wanted more. More came when the warm hands were replaced by a wet hole or wait...He jerks and gets up immediately, his eyes grow wide open as he sees Caroline's head appear from between his legs.“What are you doing?" He asked in a rasp.“Massaging". She smirks, “You didn't let me finish though".Frederick swallows hard, as they hold each other's gaze in silence.“Just lay down, let me continue".“Y...you can't Caroline". He stutters, the promised pleasure thrilling him.“Why not?" She asked.“Where is your mother?" He questioned instead.“She's out. We're all alone". She smirks at him again, and then her head disappears between his legs.“Aww..mmmh" He moans as she flicks the tip with her tongue. He tas
As Eleanor heard the name "Colonel Frederick Smyth," a profound respect flickered in her eyes. She couldn't help but feel a surge of empathy for this soldier who had endured the harsh realities of war."Colonel Frederick Smyth," she repeated softly, as if testing the weight of the name. "It suits you, my dear. A name with a sense of honor and resilience."Frederick managed a weary smile, touched by the kindness in Eleanor's words. The weight of his experiences seemed to momentarily lift as he shared more about his life as a soldier, the camaraderie forged in the crucible of battle, and the challenges faced on the front lines.“Are you married?" She asked out of the blue.Frederick nods, and immediately his expression dims. His thoughts goes to Samara and how she must be feeling with his absence. What exactly was the information passed on to her concerning him? He thought grimly.“Colonel?" He heard her call him out of his thoughts, her voice laced with worry. “Soon you'll be fit to go
