Bab 101: Breathless...

|Eshan|

Blinking my eyes, I looked down at the woman before me in my arms. Twice she confessed her love to me. The first time I was not able to believe it, but now as she gazed at me with all the love in her teary eyes, I would be the dumbest person alive if I remained unmoved.

Cupping Innaya's neck, I brought her face close to me. Gradually, I swooped down, maintaining eye contact with her. Deliberately I kept my movements gradual, giving her time to make a decision. I understood that she was emotional, but people always did not make emotional judgments. Last time, I had refused to believe in her words.

This time, I could feel her sincerity. I would be a fool if I refused to trust her. I knew she was telling the truth. It was love. She was in love with me.

I felt her warm breath caressing my skin. My senses tingled with little excitement and a lot more nervousness. My eyes moved across her face before they came to rest on her lips.
