My glance meets Alice, her eyes wide with fear, crouched behind a sofa in the living room. I see some men there, the ring leader, who I suspect is Jake, is taken by surprise, stumbles, and staggers as they try to react.
As the police officers surround the room, I step forward, my eyes locked on Jake, Alice clings to my arm, trembling like she’s never going to let me go and truthfully, her warm touch sends sweet butterflies in my belly. “It is over, Jake.” I say, my voice firm and cold.
Jake gives a lopsided grin, his eyes flashing with anger. “f**k you!” He spits. His friends, realizing the situation, begin to surrender. But Jake refuses to give up.
Suddenly, he pulls out a g*n from his waistband and points it at Alice. “You’ll never have her. Alice is mine!” He screams, and the veins in his forehead are visible.
I quickly push Alice behind me, shielding me with my body. She’s shivering as she holds my waist. “Pull down that damn g*n!” I warn, raising my hands to surrender.
The police officers move swiftly, surrounding Jake and demanding that he should drop the g*n. Jake’s face is twisted into a scowl, his fingers tightening on the trigger. “Alice, let’s go unless I’m gonna send your body to the dogs.” He threatens, clenching his teeth.
I can feel Alice’s trembling body from where she holds me. “No, Jake. We are done! I…will no longer be your f*****g prey.” I grin from ear to ear at her level of confidence despite the tense environment.
Jake’s eyes dart widely. But before he can pull the trigger, the officers tackle him to the ground, pinning him down. As the officer's handcuffs Jake, a wave of relief washes over me and my heart is basking in the euphoria that my lady is now free. The most talked about monster who had eliminated my late wife is arrested.
I turn to Alice, pulling her into a tight hug. “It's over, Alice,” I say, my voice barely a whisper. “You’re free now.”
Alice buries her head in my chest, sobbing, her body shaking with relief. I hold her tightly, rubbing her back lovingly. “Thank you, Mario.” She says, cupping my face. “I don't know what I would have done without you.”
I cup her face lovingly, admiring her oval-shaped face and those brown eyes. The same eyes that caught my attention when she walked through my door as a babysitter. “I love you, Alice. I want you to be mine forever. You have filled my heart with warmth these few months.” I reveal, my gaze rests on her soft lips. I feel like giving her a passionate kiss to prove to her that I’m madly in love with her.
A slow smile curves her lips as she nods. “I love you too, Mario. I’m ready to be on this journey with you and Amelia.” I love the sound of that, her voice sounds like music in my ears.
Overcome with emotions, I hold her warmly as my lips on her silence her, we melt in each other's arms like wax in flames.
***
It's been two months since the Jake incident, and I’m glad he’s been sentenced to life imprisonment. Alas! We have finally received justice for the pain Jake had inflicted on us. It's been blissful moving to a new home with Amelia and my wife. Yeah, you heard that. Loving Alice is one of the best feelings ever.
Jerking my head up, I see Alice walking into the room with a red matching colored b*a and pants revealing her cleavage and her curvaceous hips just the way I love it. Damn! My honey rod responds so fast. Truthfully, I love how it responds every time my glance meets Alice. “You’re not sleeping yet?” She smiles, shifting her butt closer to my side.
“Baby,” I groan. The image of us lying bare, our bodies lapping against each other, our lips sealed together like the Holy Matrimony vows flashes through my mind. I grab her hungrily like a Lion feeding on its prey, undressing her, my fingers grazing through her spotless skin as I peel her underwear piece by piece. My lips found her left breast, sucking her juicy n*****s with gusto as she moans heavily. I swear, there are a million fireflies inside my stomach as I make love with the love of my life.
Now panting heavily, I kiss her passionately, my dangling king entering her horny pot. She tries to stifle her moan at first, but I quickly asked her not to hold it back. “Scream baby! I love it when you scream!” She pulls my head backward, planting kisses all over my face while her hands stroke my hair. “Sweetie, don’t stop!” She screams, rubbing my back enthusiastically.
I found her breasts again, fondling and flicking her n****e with my thumb. “Beautiful! I love this.” I whispered. Afterward, I spread her legs and settle to slurp. “Make it hard!” She screams. A few minutes later, a knock on the door interrupted our loving moments.
“Dad, Mum, may I come in? Please, read my bedtime stories.” She said, leaning on the locked doorway. Mum? Wow! My daughter sees a motherly relationship in Alice already.
Throwing in an old polo and jeans hurriedly, she squeals with excitement as she runs towards us, enveloping her in a warm hug. As we sit here, we exchange glances at each other and I can't help reminiscing on what we have been through in the past months.
Soon after, Amelia drifts into a deep sleep, lying in Alice’s lap. She murmurs something incoherent, her voice barely a whisper, and we burst into uncontrollable laughter watching her while she sleeps.
“She’s such an innocent cutie!” Alice says, fondling Amelia’s cheeks — one of the distinctive features she shares with her late mum.
Suddenly, we lock eyes with each other, enchanted by the stunning beauty sitting beside me. She bends her face shyly and giggles like a schoolgirl. My heart swells with delight and pride watching her giggle. Moving closer, I take her hands, and she lifts her face to meet my gaze.
“Oh my God, this girl is damn pretty!” I mutter under my breath. My heart is going to burst into beautiful tiny pieces.
Swallowing the excitement clotting my throat and knotting my stomach, I plant a kiss on her succulent lips and she whispers. “Shhh. We can't do this now. Amelia is sleeping.” I’m running out of patience and controlling myself, but I can't help it.
“I don’t care,” I say, my voice barely a whisper. We lay Amelia on the bed and then, I wrap my arms around her, our lips connecting in a deep kiss. Amelia’s murmurs grow louder.
The Unexpected Attraction turns into a true, unbreakable bond. This love has come to stay.
