Chapter 260 - Afraid? (2/2)

|Eshan|

Innaya looked so adorable and beautiful that I could not draw away my gaze from her. Like a moth drawn to the fire, my whole body was getting pulled to her. That intense burning was making me uncomfortable with a longing to quench my thirst with those deliciously inviting red lips.

The natural color they gained after our extensive battle of affection was too pleasing to eyes that I wanted it to stay that way for a lifetime. All I was looking for was a reason to kiss her, though.

When I had passed Innaya her inner wears, I missed noticing what I chose for her. So, when I saw the two adorable pink kittens designed on the bra on her bosom, I ended up chuckling.

Innaya turned miffed, not understanding what I was finding funny. She might have thought that I was laughing at her chest. Her expressions said it all. Only I knew the reason. I should have stopped myself because she might feel insecure as this being our first time getting intimate to this level. I did not want insecurities to muddle her head anymore. I would not allow that… not anymore.

So, holding onto her slender hands, trying to push me away, I held them with one palm. Throwing my leg on her other side, I climbed on top of her.

Her black hair sprawled on a white pillow gave her a seductive look, and I just could not help but reach and thread my fingers in them. I felt my entire being shuddering when we made our first intimate contact or rather when I let Innaya know about my reaction to her.

Her long eyelashes fluttered, and Innaya froze under me.

”Afraid?” I asked with a wildly thumping heart. If she nodded, I would stop everything. Scaring her with our intimacy was not a motive. On the outside, I might look confident and in control, but from inside, I was fidgeting as hell.

I caressed her cheek to regain control over my raging emotions and to calm her down.

To my utmost surprise, Innaya shook her head.

”Just a little… surprised,” she said, looking directly in my eyes.

And, that was the moment I fell in love with my wife all over again. It had nothing to do with how accepting she was to our intimacy, but with the way she was trusting me, and our marriage.

The girl who had been part of a broken family, bore the brunt of an abusive and mad father was trying to move on. Though, her past held her back. Many times, her past hindered our present, yet my sweet darling was trying her very best to overcome her fears.

One month ago, she was still hesitant. And, after a month, going through so much of s***, so much suffering… She was willing to cross the river with me, taking a blind leap of faith when we had mountain of things to clarify.

How could I hold myself back after having such a wonderful person as my soulmate?

Bending down I captured her lips in a kiss, conveying how much she meant to me.
