Chapter 46: Birthday Gift

As their bodies trembled with the aftershocks of pleasure, William held Ava close, their breathing gradually returning to normal. In that fleeting moment of intimacy, they both knew that their encounter had been more than just physical. It was a silent acknowledgment of their shared desires and the unspoken complexities of their relationship. Yet, amidst the tangled emotions and lingering sensations, they both remained silent, lost in their own thoughts.

"Thanks," Ava said.

"Not yet," William refused, pulling back his now flaccid member from heaven's gates. "I think ... You want more, don't you?"

"What?" Ava asked, feeling empty without William inside her.

"Hey, it's your birthday," William said again. His smile was confident, full of desire.

Ava was grateful that William didn't call out Paula's name. But she knew she didn't want to spoil the intimacy of the night by discussing Paula or their first time together under the influence of alcohol.
