”Eshan, can you stop talking double meaning things?”

”Darling, I'm being pretty straightforward here. If my meaning is still unclear to you, let me show you with my actions,” saying this, Eshan's left hand went inside through the cotton pajama top and held my bare waist.

The warm palm caressing my waist, teasingly dancing across my skin, literally caused me to jerk up. Though I was not ticklish, this was far from being ticklish. Eshan's mere touch with that smoldering gaze caused my stomach to clench.

”W-what exactly are you doing?” I snapped out of it. My voice coming out stammering as the pressing weight of the man and his mischievous fingers made it difficult to remain clear-headed.

Eshan blew air in my ear before pulling my earlobe in his mouth. The soft, tender flesh of my earlobe was a little too sensitive. I shuddered when he sucked slowly on it.

”Can I take liberties with you, Innaya?” Eshan asked, and this time his voice did not sound as playful as before. He sounded more serious. Slowly turning my head, I found his eyes that were scrutinizing me carefully. ”For tonight.”

My breath stuck in my throat as I witnessed the guarded and desperate emotions in his eyes. Until now, Eshan seemed to be being playful and had no intention of being serious. Suddenly he felt different as if something was bothering him.

He freed my hands and put some distance between us, though he did not get up completely.

”Just for tonight. I won't hurt your leg. I'll be careful,” Eshan added, holding my gaze.

Eshan's seriousness caused my heart to fall in the turmoil… It did not look like it was something causal, or he was just being excited, but it felt as if he was battling something, and he wanted to find comfort with me… with our intimacy.

Suddenly that night, when we returned from the beach, flashed in my mind, reminding me of that memory when Eshan was seeking reassurance. He had not said anything that night, but I had felt his need for support. This time was no different. Eshan seemed to be seeking emotional and physical support. Despite knowing about my injury, if he was asking about my opinion and wanted to go further, then this was not simple.

Perhaps this was the night where we would be husband and wife in a true sense… belonging to each other completely.
