RUNNING AWAY FROM MY BETROTHED

CHAPTER 85. CERTAINTY

Ch. 85 / 271 Nov 29, 2024

Is it only me, or does it imply the same to him as well? Well, that I don’t know. What

I am so certain about is that he also relishes this moment as much I do. He values this much as I do. He is lost in this as much as I am. This moment, and the others that have had, are as important and memorable to him as it are to me.

And those are enough reasons to make me bask in the warmth of his embrace and this wholly, surrendering my all—body, soul, heart, and mind. All unto him, I . A pang of waves of possessiveness washes over me, like it always does in like this, filling me with a heady sense of euphoria. It is a primal instinct, a longing to claim him as my own, to hold onto this moment for eternity. To have for eternity.

I affirm that it has been impossible for me not to believe that these kisses mean more. They are not just mere gestures, but declarations of a love that time and space. In his arms, I feel whole and complete, as if I have finally the missing piece of my soul. The piece that my soul has been longing for all life. And now that I have found it, this all feels like coming home. He is my home.

He is my heart. He is my better half. He is my sanity. He is both my strength and my . He is my all. Damian is my all! If there is anything else beyond this out , I don’t want to know it.

And finally, he was away after an eternity of pure bliss, the lingering taste of his lips dancing on mine, a bittersweet ache settling in my chest. It is an inexplicable of contentment and longing, as if I simultaneously want to hold onto the forever and yet crave more, hungry for the next brush of his lips against .

His touch lingers on my rosy cheeks, his fingers tracing gentle patterns against my skin, and I can't help but lean into his touch, craving the warmth and it brings. And then he aligns our eyes. Our eyes rock, as if a thousand words pass between us, a silent conversation that transcends language.

His gaze is deep, dark, and filled with a myriad of emotions swirling beneath the . I could call this love the one in his eyes—raw and untamed, burning bright a flame in the darkness. There is longing—a yearning so intense it threatens to me whole. And there is a hint of vulnerability—a flicker of uncertainty that serves to make him all the more endearing. My beast! My sweat, Damian. How I he can verbally communicate what he is showing in his beautiful, bottomless .

For a moment, time ceases to exist as our eyes hold a dialogue. And as I drink in the of him, memorizing every curve of his face and every fleck of gold in his eyes, I realize one thing: that no words could ever do justice to the depth of what I feel him. That much I know, and that what he is holding within his cold walls is deep, I am in love. No, it is all for me! This is all for Ellie!

I emit a small grin as I gaze deeper into his eyes after what I just realized. Looking at , I see nothing but a reflection of everything that I have ever wanted. Everything I ever needed—love, peace, adoration, satisfaction, care, and desire—is just how I have wanted to be desired. With him, I am home; I have all that I need and . What else can I ask for?

“What is it?” He finally says, his breath hot and his voice deep.

I am too held in the moment to even wiggle my head. “Nothing,” I respond faintly.

He blinks, breaking the eye dialogue, running his thumb on my lips. “You know you important to me, right?” he whispers, his eyes dancing in mine.

I manage to nod. I know I am. Even if he doesn’t say it, I know I am more than . “I know. And you are important to me as well. Very important,” I say, and leans in to kiss me again. I think this is the only way he knows how to explain his . How to communicate.

"How about we test your cooking lessons, huh?" He asks after we pull away, brushing lower lips with his thumb once again, and for the first time, he tends to avert my .

He is feeling something deep that he is explaining. But I will not push it. I will be here, for that moment when he will figure it all out. "I like that. What do you want to cook for you?" I ask, pulling him to the kitchen.

We haven't done this for a long time. Actually, for the past two months, we haven't each other much. I miss the aroma already and the crazy stuff we do together in kitchen. That is us. Crazy and wild.

"What do you want to cook?" He queries us as we enter the kitchen.

"Something new. Maybe chicken curry and seasoned rice?" I ask, kissing his lips .

I tasted it two months ago with him, and it has become one of my favourites. I know fridge is always stocked.

He smiles. "Okay. Let's leave this for later and get to work, then." He says this, away and sauntering to the fridge.

"Huu! It has been a long time. I hope I can remember everything," I mumble as I pull the apron.

"There is no room for mistakes, baby. Unless you want me to spank your round, tight ,” He licks my earlobe from behind, positioning a packet of chicken wings on the .

No doubt the cooking will be spicy, especially if this is the first ingredient—him this touchy and naughty. I leave him to do whatever he is doing behind me, and

I start peeling the onions with a mega blush on my face.
