His Unveiled Passion

This time, Tessa took the initiative. She stood on her tiptoes, wrapped her arms around Stephen's neck, and kissed him.

Stephen's eyes darkened with desire as he lifted her off the ground and pressed her against the wall.

The steam blurred the glass cubicle, casting a hazy reflection of their entwined figures.

The sound of running water echoed in the bathroom, occasionally mingling with other indistinct noises.

Moonlight poured in from the nearest window as the gentle breeze carried with it the scent of flowers. The night was young and perfect.

...

It was well past sunrise by the time Tessa finally woke up from her slumber. Their friends who had attended Stephen's birthday party yesterday night had all returned home. Thus, returning peace and serenity to the large villa.

Tessa extended an arm to feel the space next to her. The bed was empty. It seemed that Stephen had already gotten up.

She lifted the blanket and promptly saw red marks all over her body. Her mind began replaying their night of passion, making her heart pound, and her cheeks flush.

Just then, Stephen pushed the door open and walked in. "My love, you're awake?"

Tessa hummed in acknowledgement.
