The pounding of my heart was all that I could hear as I stared at Terran in awe.
Never had I expected such words from him, nor did I ever think there would come a day so soon where Terran's arms would be wrapped around my waist as he confessed his thoughts to me.
I was shaken into silence, and suddenly, all of the words I learned in elementary school seemed to have vanished. I was dumbstruck, staring at the beautiful man in front of me, saying words that I had never imagined him saying.
"I brought you to my home, Nalani, because..." He paused. His breathing was ragged. He took a deep breath. His fingers clenched tightly around my waist as his grip on me only became harder. I would have considered it painful, but right now, all of my pain seemed to be burning into a pleasure that I was willing to beg for.
I was shameless.
