“Never. That will never happen. You can watch other dicks, but it’s only mine you’ll get.”
“I only want yours.”
Will I ever tire of hearing her say this? The still-guilty-as-fuck part of me needs that in order to let go of said guilt.
“Come on, let’s shower.”
By the time she gets out of the shower, new clothes are already on the bed.
“Daniel dropped them by.”
“He saw this room?”
I suppress a smile. She’s cute, all flustered.
“Stop being embarrassed.”
She changes, retreating into her headspace. I forget at times how she lived, sheltered and secluded. But I can’t have that. I pin her to the wall and kiss her, leaving her gasping for air. I cup her face, my eyes boring into her.
“You’re mine. My queen. We don’t justify our lifestyle or life choices to others, just to each other. Deal?”
“Deal.”
I peck her lips again, and then we head toward the car. I help her in, my hand on her ass, while she rolls her eyes at me over her shoulder.
***
After Italy, we spend the next two weeks sailing from Croatia, Montenegro, to Greece and the west coast of Turkey. I don’t remember ever taking time off for a vacation, but for her I will find time and give us more moments like these.
Together, lazing in the sun, discovering through her eyes every new place that puts a dreamy expression on her face; this has been the happiest time of my life.
I can’t pinpoint when I knew for sure I was falling in love with her. But this happiness, the peace she offers me is the most precious thing money and power would never buy.
No one else but her would.
I watch her swimming on her back, a radiant smile on her face. Aurora dives into the sea. I jump to my feet, running to the edge, counting the seconds until she reemerges. Her eyes find mine, and I calm instantly.
She pushes herself from the water and sashays to me. Droplets trail down her body, a body that has become my addiction, my own work of art I love to get lost in. She straddles me, locks her arms around my neck, and presses her lips to mine.
Now, it’s her turn to take what she wants from me. It unravels me, stripping me to my bones while she holds all the power. I kiss her back, wrapping my hand around her pulsing neck.
When the kiss ends, she falls next to me on the sand, the slight tan she got making her skin glow. She props herself on an elbow and says, “About your mother and your sister...”
She keeps asking me about them. I would love for her to meet my little sister all grown up, but I don’t know if I can protect her from my mother. And if something came up between this woman who makes me happy and my bitter mother, I would lose it if she spits her venom at Aurora.
“What about them?”
I stall and she sighs and picks at the sand, already reading me so well it’s frightening.
“Why don’t you want me to see them?”
“It’s not that.”
“Why then?”
“Because I don’t want to test my reaction to anyone treating you badly.”
Her face takes on a pensive expression.
