The Bond Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 1151

A rainy night.

Nothing stirs up desire quite like a storm.

Scott had been bottling things up for far too long—the grind of family life and the weight of daily frustrations pressing on his chest. Tonight, though, he could finally let it all out.

Sandy, stretched out across the sheets, was nothing like Juliana. She was playful, clever, and knew exactly how to push his buttons, making him feel wanted in all the right ways.

Juliana, on the other hand, always seemed lifeless in bed—just lying there, unmoving. It drained Scott’s passion every time.

The difference between the two was night and day.

Scott was in his prime, and once things started, he was unstoppable. Sandy couldn’t help but be surprised; she’d never imagined that the usually reserved Scott could be so wild behind closed doors.

That night, Scott found a satisfaction he hadn’t felt in years.

Afterwards, he slipped into a deep, peaceful sleep.

His phone kept buzzing on the nightstand—Juliana, calling again and again.

Sandy glanced at the screen and, without hesitation, put the phone on silent.

Morning came.

Scott woke up feeling clear-headed. He looked down at Sandy, still sleeping in his arms, and felt something he couldn’t quite put into words.

He didn’t regret a thing. In his world, what man didn’t have someone on the side? His marriage to Juliana was a business deal, nothing more. Sandy was the first woman in years who made him feel young again, made him feel alive.

She looked so serene and beautiful as she slept—the kind of woman every man dreams of.

Scott remembered he’d been the one to make the first move last night, and a small pang of guilt for Sandy tugged at him.

But what he didn’t know was that everything had gone exactly as Sandy planned, from the very first moment they’d met that evening.

Scott let her rest on his arm, not daring to move in case he woke her.

Eventually, Sandy stirred. She opened her eyes and met his gaze. At this point, there was no use pretending. She leaned over and, boldly, kissed his cheek.

“Mr. Stranz, I like you. Last night, you made me feel alive—as a woman,” she said softly.

Sandy’s confession washed over Scott like a rush of cool water, infusing him with new energy.
