The Love From Vengeance

269: EXHILARATED AND EXHAUSTED

ARIEL’S POV

And I was right here, standing in this kitchen, feeling Luke’s presence behind me, his warm hands wrapping around my waist. I couldn’t help but smile, knowing that this touch was the type that brought the exhilarating passion within me–a passion so intense that it seemed to consume every fiber of my being.

His touch was like a symphony playing on my skin, each caress sending delightful shivers down my spine. The connection we shared was beyond words–a silent understanding that spoke volumes in the silence of our embraces.

As his fingers traced patterns on my skin, I could feel my heart racing and my breath catching in my throat. Each touch was a revelation–a discovery of hidden desires and unspoken yearnings. At this point, time seemed to stand still, the world fading away as we became lost in each other.

The flames of our passion burned brightly, casting a warm glow that illuminated the depths of our souls. In his arms, I felt safe and vulnerable all at once, a heady mix of emotions that left me breathless. Our connection was like a dance, a give and take of energy and emotion that left us both exhilarated and exhausted.

I reveled in the way his hands moved over my body, mapping out every curve and contour as if trying to memorize me with his touch. Each soft kiss was a promise, and each embrace was a vow of devotion. In those moments, nothing else mattered but the two of us, intertwined in a

dance as old as time itself.

In his arms, I found solace and passion, a refuge from the storms of life that raged outside our

cocoon of intimacy.

“You know, you’re the best thing that ever happened to me,” he whispered, his breath tickling my

neck.

I turned around to face him, a smile spreading across my face. “And you are mine,” I replied, kissing his lips gently. “But seriously, I have to prepare breakfast for Janice. Weren’t you there when she told me she was hungry?”

“Yeah, I was there.”

I laughed. “Yeah, so hold on. Just give me some time to get this done. I’ll come straight to you

when I’m done.”

“I think I’ll be the one coming to you.” He grinned.
