Chapter 38 Moonlit Confession
Evelyn
I gently traced my fingers along his jawline, careful not to disturb his peaceful slumber. He appeared breathtakingly beautiful, an unconventional sort of magnificence that brought me tranquillity instead of the usual racing heartbeats.
After numerous times of literally fucking the shit out of each other that left us both physically spent, we had succumbed to sleep a few hours ago. But my rest had been short-lived. Perhaps fate or maybe god himself willed me to witness this scene, granting me the privilege of marvelling at its creation and seizing the opportunity for himself to brag about it.
Indeed I could give him the credit. Jacob was, in my eyes, flawless.
I brushed aside a lock of his chestnut-brown hair that had fallen onto his forehead. The colour complemented his skin tone seamlessly, radiating a subtle shine. I could have easily spent the entire night just observing him. The idea wasn't all that bad, considering sleep had eluded me. Fair enough, isn't it?
"A grown man who sleeps like a baby," I murmured softly, ensuring my voice remained barely audible. My gaze remained fixed on him; he lay on his side, facing me, while I lay on my stomach. Adorable.
My fingers tingled with the desire to trace his features his defined cheekbones, the contour of his nose, his smooth forehead, the tempting curve of his lips, and the rosy hue of his cheeks. But I refrained. I couldn't bear the thought of rousing him from his serene rest. Who would, really? It was an absolute sacrilege to disturb him at this moment. Someone had to be an absolute bitch to do so, and I often had been that bitch-Yet, it was different with Jacob-only with him.
Suppressing my impulses, I managed to sit up, even though the urge to shower his face with kisses was a struggle.
How could someone always look so damn tempting? Lord, have mercy.
I threw off the duvet, trying to get up and out of bed. But I couldn't tear my eyes away from him.
Just one quick kiss. Then I'll go.
I gave in, leaned over, and planted a soft kiss on his lips. I had to make sure I didn't get too into it and wake him up. I smiled, pulled away, and got out of bed.
I felt like an idiot for falling in love with this man. But what can you do? The heart wants what it wants, it could hardly bother giving a single fuck about what's right and wrong.
I walked out of the room, putting on Jacob's shirt as I went, and stood by the hatch. Damn, what a view.
Even though the cold winds felt sharp and bitter against my skin, making me shiver, and a part of me wanted to crawl back into the warm bed next to Jacob, I toughed it out because the sky was just too amazing to miss. I could handle a bit more.
I gripped the cold metal railings, a shiver running down my spine, and exhaled a soft sigh.
Thoughts raced through my mind, loud and clear.
I didn't give a damn about the world. But it was all going to end soon. Once my dad's marriage is done, he'd go his way and I'd, unfortunately, even though it'd deeply hurt me, have to
