Love Unspoken

The scent of gardenias was the most prominent, a familiar fragrance that soothed her frenzied heart as she detected the rhythmic throb of the man's heartbeat within his chest.

Quinn extended her arms, wrapping them around his sturdy waist, and buried her face in his comforting embrace, greedily inhaling his scent.

In response, Alexander held her close, his hand gently stroking her back in a silent reassurance.

After a period of time that seemed both eternal and fleeting, the trembling figure in his arms finally stilled. Alexander gently released her and whispered, "Why don't you go sleep in the bedroom?"

He pulled back the pristine white sheets on the bed, gently laying her down. He then moved to the closet, retrieving a blanket which he carefully draped over Quinn.
