Bab 417: First Night

"Arabella," Ferdinand said her name with so much longing. And he asked for the last time just to be sure, "Are you sure, you are ready to go all the way now? I don't want to force you to do anything."

Even though he was aching to just get right to it, he wanted to make sure she truly wanted this.

"Yes, I'm sure. I'm ready for this." Arabella smiled. She had been for a while now.

"This is the last time I ask. I won't stop even if you beg me later. Are you really sure you want this?" he asked, clearly holding back his urges.

"Yes, I do. I want you."

With that, Ferdinand smiled and said, "Then, I will make you completely mine, Arabella."

"Yes," her voice breathy and eager. She wrapped her arms around her neck. "I'm yours, Ferdinand."

Ferdinand was elated at all her responses. He embraced her tight and kissed her lovingly.

Their kiss easily turned hungry and deep. And when they broke apart, both catching their breath, Ferdinand cupped her cheek and looked into her eyes.
