"The car is ready, let's go," Paul's baritone voice sounded around them. All eyes turned to Danica. They were waiting for her final approval.
Silence descended like snow. Not even the sound of a maid moving about was heard. Daniella stared desperately at her sister. She couldn't believe that she lost everything. Her sister had Loney and she was going to have his child. Something that Daniella would never have. If only she could have Danica's child and Loney, then her life would be perfect.
"You can have all the money in my bank account. Goodbye, Daniella." Danica gave her final verdict and didn't wait for another oration. She turned around and headed back to Loney's room. Tears froze on Daniella's face. Her sister gave up on her. She would make her pay. She would regret giving her the money. Without a word, she turned around and followed Paul.
Loney made one of the maids bring their food to his room. For the first time, he felt safe and light. Before the maid passed him with the tray, he took it and went to his room.
Danica was laid on the bed in deep thought. He could see that she was still worried about her sister. What kind of heart does she have? He couldn't understand her. Whichever way, he managed to get her to eat and after they were done, he asked,
"So are you going to move in here or not?"
Somehow, Danica felt it wasn't a question but an order. Nonetheless, after everything that had happened, she didn't feel like being away from him. If they had been in the same room, Daniella's plan wouldn't have worked and even though she had left, it was best to be together.
"I will get the maids to move my things." A genuine smile crossed Loney's features for the first time since he returned. "I forgive myself," he uttered. Danica's smile matched his and she threw her arms around him.
"That's the best gift you can give yourself," she whispered in his ear. It came out so soft, so seductive.
Loney locked eyes with hers. A wave of satisfaction filled him. She wasn't rushed with decisions. She was prudent in her ways. She was worth the wait. Perhaps, God used Daniella's disrespect to keep him waiting for the right person. She was the one. The one his soul longed for. His lips brushed her ear lobe as he spoke, "how do you always find these strange answers to every question?"
Danica was about to answer when his hands slipped into her blouse, taking it off completely. The spark, the tingle, the connection, all began to wake instantly. "You know very well that they are not strange. They are the truth," her voice was breathy when she spoke, as Loney unhooked her bra. His finger graced around the roundness of her breast, as he caressed it in his hand.
He hardened at the feel of her breast. It was soft and succulent. His voice turned seductive, his lips graced hers, she shivered. Whatever happened, drew them closer. Her body responded so fast or perhaps, had become more sensitive. "I want to kiss you but I won't stop till I have all of you. Is that okay? I want to make love to you the whole night. Are you up to it?"
His fingers slipped into her skirt, pulling it down. Danica's heart fluttered. She was wet already. She was ready for him but she knew that he would tease her more before giving her what her body craved. "We can try but remember you have to go to work tomorrow."
Loney pulled away from a little and pulled his shirt over his head. The movement was so swift, Danica was back in his arms. "I can choose not to. I employed enough project managers so I just have to send out instructions," he assured her softly. She was surprised. Was he getting lazy with work because of her?
"Why?"
"Because I want to be there for you and our baby Danica. I hope you'll never leave me." Loney expressed his uncertainty. Danica gave him everything he felt he didn't deserve therefore, he feared slightly.
Danica was amazed at the length Loney was taking to make her happy. So many sacrifices made her shiver. "I will take you with me wherever I go." Danica's words erased his fears. What she meant was, they will always be together. Loney took her nipple in his mouth, it was so sensitive, she squirmed in his arms.
"I'm going to take it slow, I will lose myself in the softness of your body. I will love you like crazy. I will make you moan my name over and over again because you are my everything, Danica. I love you so much."
"I love you too Lone.." Pleasure shot through her before she completed her statement, making her moan. "Please..." Her body was on fire, her walls wet.
She felt the heat tearing through her neck to her nipple and her clitoris all at once, she arched her back closing in on him. Loney felt hard, so hard it was almost painful. Yet, he wanted to continue teasing her.
He carried her to the bed, laying her on her back. His lips traced to her core, and his tongue was about to penetrate when she moaned. "No, I want you. I want you inside me." Her breath was heavy, her voice seductive, Loney couldn't deny her, no matter how he wanted to taste her. Her wish was his command.
He spread her legs and positioned himself on top of her. He thrust gently, pushing deeper till she took his full length. A moan escaped both him and Danica. He waited for her walls to adjust to his length. Then he pulled out almost to the tip before thrusting in again. He began to hasten his movement, thrusting hard and fast, the pleasure exploded all over her body.
Danica's muscles tightened at the feel of his length inside her. He was thrusting hard, her muscles tightened as she reached her climax, shaking violently and coating his manhood with her warm release. Loney halted but didn't pull out of her.
He pulled gently to the tip and plunge inside her as soon as she stopped trembling. She circled her legs around him, arching her back and lifting her waist to meet his hard thrust, it emitted pain and pleasure.
Loney groaned when she moved her waist in circular movements. He wasn't done but his body began to jerk. What has she done to him? "Damn you are so sweet, Danica, so tight," he plunged deeper again, harder, he hit her G-spot. Danica felt herself tremble again, her climax meeting his, they released together.
Loney's mouth covered hers as soon as his body recovered from the heated climax. Pleasure sprang through her as Loney nibbled on her neck, admiring every inch of her body and realized her stomach had swelled a little. It was almost invisible but knowing her body like the back of his hands, he detected it. A proud smile crept onto his features, as he worshipped her body with wet kisses.
*******
Paul had dropped off Daniella in her house. The latter hadn't spoken a word throughout the journey. She dozed off at a point before Paul woke her for directions which she was reluctant to give therefore, he had called Herty for the directions.
However, he couldn't help recalling Daniella's last words. "Tell my sister that she hasn't seen the last of me." Not as if he hadn't countered with a greater warning, "if you are wise, you would back down. If I wasn't there, Loney would have killed you. He doesn't take it kindly with trespassers. Just stay away from your sister if you value your life." As to whether or not Danica took his advice, he couldn't tell.
Therefore, he decided to see Herty, even though the latter was at church. Still, he refused to enter the auditorium when he got there and rather waited outside.
"You should have come inside you know, we don't bite," Herty said, tightening her grip on her sweater. It was quite chilly outside.
