While they lounged in their bedroom, the soft light of the approaching afternoon spilled in through the floor-to-ceiling glass wall, gentle and warm. The sheer curtain that filtered the sun's rays cast a serene ambiance, enveloping the space in a sense of tranquility.
Oblivious to the fact that her daughter was certainly consoling the heart she had just set straight, Katiandra smiled, her eyes fixed on the message displayed on her phone screen, sent by Blake.
One word was all it took to put her in motion: "Done." That's all she needed to see.
All it took to secure that contract in China was, one, a call to a friend who happened to be directly involved in the project and two, she had to speak fluent mandarin. That Michaela girl was a valuable asset, a good seed Blake said, it was clear for Katia that she was important for the woman. It did not need much to convince her Chinese friend to accept the designer, " Whatever you want" her friend said, so it happened. The Queen head nodded her right brow arched
"Good girl," She murmured, a satisfied smile spreading across her luscious lips.
Lorelei, lying on the other side of the bed, looked up from her book, curiosity written on her face. "Who's a good girl?" she asked, placing her book on her belly.
Katiandra's smile broadened as she set her gadgets on the nightstand and slid toward Lorelei. "You. No one else can be love."
Lorelei's eyes locked onto Katiandra's, her voice barely above a whisper. "Hmm. If you say so."
The air was charged with tension as they gazed into each other's eyes. Katiandra's hand reached out, caressing Lorelei's cheek, very aware of the real matter. "No one can top you."
Lorelei's eyes sparkled with amusement. "You better believe it and be on your best behavior."
Katiandra's hand trailed down to Lorelei's belly pushing the book away, her eyes never leaving hers. "I do. I love you."
Lorelei's hands circled Katiandra's neck, pulling her closer as she fell back onto her pillow understanding they were speaking the same language she smiled. "Thank you."
Katiandra's voice took on a playful, possessive tone deciding to address the elephant in the room. "Ahem. No need for that. She'd better never appear in my line of sight."
Chuckling at her mama bear attitude, Lorelei's eyes shone with love and adoration. She knew that Katiandra had done whatever compromise she made for her, and it only proved how much she cared about her feelings.
"I gave her something she wanted, dearly, apparently, a job in China," Katiandra explained, pressing her body closer to Lorelei. "Blake told me it was her dream job, something to do with her mother's path. I just made it happen."
Lorelei's hands tightened around Katiandra's neck, caressing its back. "Thank you, my love."
Katiandra's lips curved into a smile lowered her head with her forehead resting on her lover's one, her love for Lorelei overflowing in that moment.
Feeling bold she tried to steal a kiss, but Lorelei playfully rolled her head away, her eyes sparkling with amusement. The movement caused her casual, oversized sweater to slip off her shoulder, revealing a hint of soft, golden skin.
Katiandra breathed out knowing she had hurt her feeling in a way by her morning reaction to the designer. It had meant in a way that she did not trust Lorelei love which was not true.
"Love, I trust you, really, I know your loyalty to me and I am forever blessed to have it," katiandra said, her voice low and soothing understanding the rejection. "You waited forever to have me, you gave me another chance at love. How could I have those kinds of thoughts about you?" She reached out, her hand cupping Lorelie's face tenderly.
Lorelie's eyes never left Katia's as she listened, her expression softening. She was almost resting underneath her on their large bed, her legs now intertwined with hers, wearing comfortable, faded jeans and a cozy, pastel pink sweater.
Katia continued, her voice filled with emotion. "It is her kind I don't like, ogling you like you are fresh meat. My love, I mean, you're a sight for sure. I will not go around fighting everyone who dares to look at you, but in this case... Huhhh, I don't like or want to share the air you breathe with her."
While katia spoke, Lorelie's gaze never wavered, her eyes locked on her lover's face, filled with adoration and love. The atmosphere in the room was charged with emotion, the tension between them palpable.
Finally, Katiandra's words trailed off, and she leaned in, her lips brushing against Lorelei's in a soft, gentle kiss finally granted this time.
While they savored the kiss, Katia's hands instinctively wrapped around Lorelei's waist, pulling her closer of more possible. Lorelei's arms encircled Katia's neck, deepening the kiss. The world outside their bedroom melted away, leaving only the two of them, lost in the warmth of their love.
The soft, golden light of the afternoon sun continued to spill into the room, casting a romantic glow over the scene. The sheer curtain rustled gently in the breeze, its soft whispers a soothing accompaniment to the lovers' tender moment.
After a moment they finally pulled away from the kiss, Katia's eyes sparkling with adoration, her face flushed with happiness. Lorelei's expression mirrored Katia's, her eyes shining with love and devotion.
Lorelei's eyes sparkled with amusement after a moment of contemplation, that moment where they lost themselves in each other's eyes in awe to be there, each times a wonder to have the best of life, a gift of God wrapped in a form of this magnificent human being.
Feeling all kind of sort, mostly happiness and contentment, Lorelei's felt all the fibers of her body let loose on the soft sheets while her soulmate body rolled on top of her, comfortably fitting hers.
Shaking her head she pouted her eyes holding firmly katiandra's strong orbs. "You're so possessive," she teased, her voice barely above a whisper.
Katiandra's expression turned playful, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "You have no idea," she replied, her voice low and husky making Lorelei's laughter filled the bedroom.
Lorelie's laughter was music to the older woman ears, and she could not help but smile. She reached out, her hand brushing against the perfect face she loved so much, caressing the soft cheek. "I love you," she whispered.
Lorelie's eyes locked onto her soulmate, her expression softening. "I love you too," she replied, her voice filled with emotion.
They settled into a peaceful embrace, their bodies entwined on the soft, king-sized bed. Lorelei's arm wrapped gently around Katia's neck, holding her close as Katia's arms rest around Lorelei's head, looking at her with fascination. Her right hand traveled down her fingers resting comfortably inside her sweater tracing patterns on her skin with the tip of her fingers.
The atmosphere was filled with a deep sense of tranquility, as if time itself had slowed down to allow them to savor this perfect moment.
Katiandra adjusted her body on top of Lorelei's. Her head nestled comfortably in the crook of her partner's neck, her eyes closed as she breathed in the scent of her skin. Lorelei's eyes, too, were closed, her face tilted downward as she pressed her lips to Katia's forehead.
In this peaceful, loving embrace, they found a sense of perfect tranquility, a feeling that they would cherish forever. The world outside their bedroom door melted away, leaving the two of them, lost in the warmth of their love.
The two lay entwined under the beauty of the day, their hearts beat as one. That moment when you just exist in the momentum.
The world outside their bedroom door melted away, leaving only the gentle rustle of the sheer curtain and the soft whisper of their own contented sighs.
Their eyelids grew heavy, and they drifted off into a peaceful slumber, their bodies wrapped in each other's arms. The silence was almost palpable, a living, breathing entity that enveloped them in its soothing embrace.
Just as the stillness seemed absolute, a majestic shadow fell across the terrace outside their bedroom. A regal eagle, its feathers a radiant gold, appeared on the railing, its piercing eyes fixed intently on the sleeping couple. For a fleeting moment, it gazed at them, as if imparting a blessing or a promise.
Then, just as suddenly, it spread its broad wings and took flight, vanishing into the sky. The moment the eagle disappeared, Lorelei's arm stirred, circling around Katiandra's sleeping form. Her voice barely above a whisper, she murmured, "I love you."
Katiandra's face, serene and peaceful, seemed to smile in her sleep, as if she had heard Lorelei's whispered promise. The eagle's visit, brief as it was, seemed to have imbued the atmosphere with an almost supernatural sense of peace, a feeling that their love was blessed, protected, and cherished.
In this serene, idyllic moment, they slept, wrapped in each other's arms, their hearts filled with love, their spirits at peace.
THE END
