Chapter 1

_Chapter 1: "Perfect Facade"

Tina looked at Alex, smiling as he walked past her in the sitting room, holding a bouquet of Rose flowers. Smiling at her, she quickly stood up from the soft comforter couch she was lying on and smiled back at her husband of six months as he handed her the flowers.

As they stood there for some seconds, their eyes locked in a passionate gaze, and the air around them seemed to thicken with anticipation. Alex's eyes, a deep shade of blue, sparkled with affection and desire, drawing Tina in like a magnet force, She felt her heart skipping continuously  as he leaned in closer, his lips brushing against hers gently and

wrapped around hers hungrily, as Tina felt the softness of his lips, she melted slowly into his arms in return and kissed him back passionately, allowing his tongue to devour every part of her mouth.

As they continued to kiss, Tina's senses were lost in pleasure for some seconds, she closed her eyes to feel the electrifying pleasure that ran through her nerves and  she could feel a pinch of heat running through her thighs,

Tina came back alive as she breathed in the scent of Alex's cologne, a subtle blend of Manly and spicy deodorant that seemed to ignite a fire within her. His breath, warm and inviting, caressed across her skin, and sending shivers down her spine. She felt herself melting into the couch as her body continued to respond to the gentle pressure of his lips.

As they deepened the kiss, Tina's hands instinctively reached out to wrap around Alex's neck, pulling him closer. Alex, unconsciously collected the flowers from her and placed them on the ground as his arms encircled Tina's waist, drawing her near and laying on her on the couch, gently guiding her, and then pulling her up to sit on his lap. The soft cushions cradled them, providing a comfortable haven for their romantic escapade.

Tina's fingers brushed against Alex's curly hair, down to his vintage shirt; as she unbuttoned his shirt, her touch sent sparks of electricity through both of them. She could perceive the smell of the delicate petals of the roses on him as she devoured his wide chest, allowing her tongue to run down his neckline. he grabbed her closely against his skin, and she couldn't help but inhale the sweet fragrance, which mingled with Alex's cologne to create a heady scent.

"Happy six months of our love together , my love," Alex whispered, his voice deep with emotion, as he gazed into Tina's eyes. The affection shining in his eyes made her heart swell with love, and she felt grateful for this moment, for this Alex who had brought so much joy into her life.

As they sat there, wrapped in each other's arms, Tina felt the world around them fade away. The only sound was the soft hum of the air conditioner and the warm light that glows on the table lamp beside them. Time seemed to stand still on them, and all that existed was the two of them, lost in their little bubble of love. Tina held Alex's arms firmly, not wanting to let go, as she curled inside him, feeling safe in his soft embrace.

Alex's hands began to explore Tina's body, his fingers tracing the curves of her neck and the slope of her shoulders. His touch was gentle, yet possessive, as if he was reasserting his claim on her. Tina felt a shiver run down her spine as his fingers softly made their way across her skin, leaving a trail of fire in their wake.

She leaned into his touch, accepting every touch as her body arched towards him, and he continued to kiss her. Their lips moved in perfect mode, the rhythm of their breaths matching the beat of their hearts. The noise around them melted away, leaving only the two of them, lost in the depths of their passion in silence.

As they broke apart for a moment, gasping for air, Alex's eyes locked onto Tina's, his gaze burning with intensity. "I love you," he whispered, his voice barely audible over the pounding of their hearts.

Tina's heart skipped a beat as she replied, her voice equally soft, "I love you too, Alex."

The words hung in the air,  like a promise, a vow, a declaration of their love for each other. As they sealed their love with another kiss, the world around them seemed to collapse leaving only the two of them reassuring and taking their marital vows once again while they gazed passionately into each other's eyes

As they sat there, wrapped in each other's arms, Tina felt a sense of peace running through her. She knew that she had found her soulmate in Alex, the one person who made her feel complete and made her be the best of herself, and also who made her heart melt at any thought of him. As their hands remained wrapped around each other, they gazed at each other warmly, and at that moment, they could define the love they shared; Tina knew that she would never let him go and that she would cherish and love him for all eternity.

Some minutes passed by, and the world outside began to intrude upon their little bubble of love. The sound of the cool breeze that came from the windows brought peace in their midst , they remained clogged to each other in silence communicating with their eyes and smiling continuously to each other sending electrifying shivers, Alex  gently embraced her in his wide broad chest as he could feel Tina's  Small body melting into his,  while his eyes were close, he said in a low voice breaking the silence in between them " I will marry you again in a million times directly into her ears and  his tongue slides in her neck bone wanting every taste of Tina's body.

Tina's response began to filter into their consciousness. She said I love you more than a million times in a trembling voice as tears of fulfillment streamed down her eyes and they continued to profess their love for each other, Tina and Alex, time stood still, and all that mattered was the love they shared, the l

ove that burned bright and true between them.
