16 Bliss and a Dilemma

Luke

Tia was untouched. How would I have ever known? She was so bold and sensual that I wouldn’t have believed it. The way she got me into bed with her was mind-blowing. I wasn’t expecting it, and I didn’t see it coming. I shouldn’t have gone to her house and run my mouth the way I did. It slowed a lot of things down for both of us. If I hadn’t, we wouldn’t have had two months and two weeks of walking on eggshells around each other. I wouldn’t have been bothered about Caleb. I wouldn’t have cared about him wanting her. She was mine even before I knew it. Stacy thought she was making me miserable, but she had blessed me. My father was right. Tia was too good for Caleb.

When we made love in the tent, it meant everything. I wanted it to be unique, and I hoped it was for her because it was for me. Knowing that I am her first changed a lot of things for me. I

promised myself I would never let her regret giving herself to me. She would always come first, no matter what.

Tia looked beautiful in the morning, lying on the bed in the tent by the beach. I stared at her breathtaking features and caressed her cheeks softly. ‘Mine’, I told myself. I had never been able to say that about anyone but her. She was lying next to me, and she was mine. She opened her eyes softly and smiled at me.

“Luke”, she managed, and before she could say anything, I kissed her with all the passion I could drive, and she responded. While kissing, we gradually sat up in bed, kneeling, facing each other, and ravaging each other.

I broke the kiss and rested my forehead against hers.

“Thank you, Tia,” I said, and she could not maintain eye contact with me. It was okay still.

“I promise never to cheat on you. I promise never to disrespect you or let anyone disrespect or harm you. I will defend you and always believe and trust you, Tia. You are my wife, my mate, and you will always be enough for me.” I said, and she pulled away to wipe away her tears. I wondered if I had said something to make her sad. “Did I say..” I said, but she shook her head, and I realised they were happy tears. “If I knew you felt this way, I wouldn’t have been guarded around you, Luke. But I thought you meant the things you said at my house, and I thought you were still with Elisabeth.” She exhaled and looked around.

“Thank you for this, Luke. We needed it. We needed it so much.” She said to me, and I drew her close and kissed her passionately. That morning, we did not make love because I thought she was sore, but a new chapter had begun for us, and I would make every word count.

Tia wore my boxer and shirt because she did not want to walk to the chalet in the sexy outfit I got her. She looked ravishing in it, and I looked forward to seeing her in the other clothes in her closet. I wore my trousers and vest, and we left the tent to head back to our chalet.

While Tia went to the bathroom, I decided to call Bart. He answered on the third ring. He must have been occupied.
