The Dark Secret of the CEO by Sofia de Orellana

Chapter 37

Gerard believes in the clouds, until he begins to feel a salty taste in that kiss that, until now, was sweet. He separates a little from Luz and sees that thick tears fall from his eyes, he is distressed knowing that he has provoked that reaction, thinking that he should not have followed that impulse.

– Luz… sorry – but she silences him with a finger to her lips, shakes her head, keeping her eyes closed and smiles –

-That has been the best kiss of my whole life, but you don’t know how much they’ve hurt me – she looks him straight in the eyes and pouts -, and that’s why I’m afraid that you’ll hurt me too.

-No… no, my Little Light. You may not believe me, but I don’t know when, where or how, but I have you here-she places her hand on her heart, which is beating wildly-. I swear you are the second woman in my life that makes me feel like this…

“When you tell me that you are afraid, I feel the same way. I’m afraid of losing you, of not being the good man you deserve… but I swear to you, I really swear to you, Luz Méndez, that I’m going to make an effort every day to be.

-Gerard… just give me time, I think we both have many internal problems, but right now it’s best to go easy. No hurry.

The girl’s hand rests on his cheek, he closes his eyes and sticks to that piece of her skin as if it were his lifeline in the middle of a violent ocean that threatens to take him away from the women he loves the most.

He knows that there is no time, but whatever is left he will dedicate to proving that his words are true.

-While we go easy on this new discovery… can I kiss you again?

Gerard’s request disarms her because of the tenderness in him. She nods at her with a smile, but before kissing her he wipes away her tears, then looks for her lips without being so invasive and this time she feels more sure of the madness she is committing.
