Checkmate

Chapter 11

Kade

I never should’ve touched her damn tampons, but when it came down to it, I knew she was going to whip my ass. I had no idea how to prank, my knowledge regarding this lacked like no one’s business. But it was a small point of revenge only now it was about to bite me in the ass. I will also never consider ketchup on the meals she prepares; she sure knew how to make a statement of displeasure. We went to bed, and I almost immediately fell into a deep sleep. Dreaming about her, tonight’s dream was me making love to her over and over again and f**k I didn’t want to wake up. But I woke up the next morning feeling ice cold beyond compare, I turned and saw blood on my chest. Keira’s hand laying cold and life less on my chest, my heart started beating out of my chest and my soul nearly left my body. “Keira, baby.” Nothing, she just laid there lifeless, “Baby” my voice became more urgent as realization hit me her hand covered in blood. I turned slowly and started to pull back the covers, the whole bed was drowned in blood, I was covered in blood and so was Keira. I couldn’t breathe and my lungs started to gasp for air. I grabbed her and started screaming at the top of my lungs. “Keira! Baby!” She slowly opened her eyes and relieve flooded me; she was alive she wasn’t dead.” Why are you screaming, I don’t feel well and the cramps are killing me?” I jumped out of bed and started to grab my pants. Getting dressed, I had to take her to the hospital she was bleeding to death and it was all my fault. I stole her f*****g tampons and now there was no plug to stop her from bleeding. This is all my fault, I am having a heart attack, I was sure. Considering my heart thumbed hard against my chest, and I struggled to breath. My beautiful, gorgeous wife was dying. I dressed in hyper speed, walked over and picked her up. The blood soaked right through the linen and onto the mattress, I am sure it even soaked though the mattress onto the carpet. This was all my fault, women should come with an instruction manual for tips during that time of the month. I had no idea what to do, she started crying and her face was red. “I am so sorry baby; this is all my fault.” I wanted to cry as I started to make my way around the bed. “Where are you taking me?” Her eyes now tear stained and my heart was breaking, I stole her period plugs and now the blood was draining out of her body like a waterfall. “To the hospital, they’ll probably give you a blood transfer and give you p***y plugs to keep the blood trapped inside you.” She burst out laughing, she laughed so hard she turned bright red. “ It was a joke Kade, it’s fake blood.” I started to search her eyes to know if she’ll really do this to me and yes, of course she would I stole her f*****g tampons and ruined her food with Ketchup. “f**k, I thought you were dying baby this isn’t funny.” I threw her on the bed and made my way towards the shower still hearing her laughter. After getting into the shower, I still heard her laughing and before I met her, I might have been mad but I’m not. Right now, I started laughing to. She’s so f*****g cute, her giggles died down and I wished I could just hold her. After I was done, I saw she took off all of the covers and luckily it wasn’t on the mattress. She saw me and started laughing all over again. I walked over chuckling myself I nearly had a heart attack, freak in vixen. I pulled her close and kissed her tenderly, she completely owned me. And she had no clue, just how much she meant to me.

After arriving at work, I walked through the office doors and saw Collin bending over crying and laughing. I wondered if he would include me in his little joke, “morning, might tell me what you’re laughing about?” He turned his phone and showed me Keira’s escapades of this morning, she recorded everything and sent it to Collin. He nearly pissed himself laughing, but I have to admit watching it from this point of view it truly was the most hilarious thing I have ever seen. I laughed with him, f**k what happened to me. Normally I would be out of my mind with anger but right now I was enjoying just as much as they were. “f**k man, I guess you’ll never steal her tampons again huh” I was still catching my breath as everybody stared at us. “Hell no, I learnt that the hard way, thank you very much.” After we had our fun, thee work day started in full swing and I texted and called my beautiful wife all throughout the day, hearing her voice placed a smile on my face and made the worst day the best. I didn’t know why yet, but I am sure I would eventually figure it out. I just couldn’t wait to get back home, and when it was finally time, I have never felt more relieved to make my way out of those double doors, into my car and back home to my incredible wife.

Upon arriving home, the same thing happened like every single evening for the past couple of days, my beautiful wife cooking dinner and her food is the most incredible I have ever tasted. The sun was shining through the windows casting a slight halo above her head. The most beautiful sight I have ever seen. She looked angelic like ever before, her eyes focused on me and her smile widened. Does she even realize how extremely gorgeous she is? “Hey baby.” I couldn’t stop the smile that spread across my own face as she said it. “Hey my beautiful angel.” I walked over and pulled her closer, I leaned forward and gently kissed her on the lips. She immediately responded, basically melting into my arms. I deepened the kiss slowly, her lips and tongue working against mine. Seductive, slow. Neither of us in a rush or fighting for control, this was us. The taste of her, was enough to drive me to the edge of insanity. Breaking away to catch a breath I will never be able to erase the look in her eyes from my memory, her eyes fluttering and her mouth swollen with my kisses. Her cheeks soft pink and her small hands cupping my cheeks. Feelings arose and not the kind of which ran straight down, the ones I was used to. No, something within me. Pulse raising and my heart beating out of my chest. Hammering like a drum. I was in a euphoria with her, trapped in her seductive web. Ready to beg at my knees. “Go grab a shower, the food is ready. I’ll set the table.” I turned and ran up the stairs, feeling empty the moment I stepped out of her touch. I made my way upstairs and into the shower, when I was nearly done Keira came barging through the door with my cellphone in hand closing her eyes. “Collin is on the line; he wants to talk to you. And I have to pee. So, keep your eyes closed.” I grabbed a towel from the railing and dried my hands taking the phone from her, she just pulled down her pants and panties and used the toilet like it was the most normal thing ever. Her eyes still closed,” Yeah, what’s up?” Collin fell silent for a second “did you tell her yet? About that night?” I could barely reply, she sat right there ignoring my presence “No, why?” I could practically hear the wheels turning “the paparazzi caught you that night, I am trying to hold of the publishers for as long as I can man. But you need to tell her before this comes back exploding in your face and the whole castle comes crumbling down.” My entire body went rigid as I heard him say they caught me, how the f**k was I supposed to tell her this. I have been making lead way with her, I can’t tell her I screwed up already. Then she would know everything she thought about me was true. I first wanted her to get the real me, “Thank you, yes can you please keep that to yourself and keep it under lock and key for as long as you can?” He replied he’ll try his best; I ended the call. She wiped herself and gave me a small smile trying really hard not to look at my naked figure. I wanted to smile; she was the sweetest damn thing. When she was done, she washed her hands and sprinted out of there. I felt something warm my entire soul, the feeling of her presence still in the bathroom. I got dressed and went downstairs the table set and we started to dish up. We continued with small talk, about how our day was and everything in between. After we cleaned up, we made our way upstairs. “I want to play 20 questions,” I agreed because hell what other way would we get to know each other that well. After a while I realized we were much more alike than we both would care to admit, we both loved Italian food and sports. We were both adrenaline junkies and only a couple of things did not match up well. I asked her what her worst habit is and she started to smile “I like to curl my finger around my hair when I am deep in thought.” I wanted to start laughing since she demonstrated and it was the cutest thing I have ever seen. She asked mine,” I have this horrible habit of pacing when I am deep in thought and stressed.” She gave me a small smile, “and don’t forget the snoring, you should come with a warning sign.” We both burst out laughing well that was something I had no idea I did. “The first night I laid there wondering which actress would play me on Netflix, or which channel would hold the documentary how you died.” I laughed harder,” Jeez who would play me then?” She tried really hard not to laugh “I have no idea but I am willing to do 25 years to live.” We laughed and talked while we fell asleep. About 3 that next morning I woke up hearing her moan in her sleep and not in the delicious way, I remembered she was having her period and with that I googled a couple of things to ease the cramps. I got up and made her some ginger and lemon tea with honey and a warm water bottle. I grabbed two Tylenols and took some water; I woke her up handing her the meds and water. She didn’t ask questions; I gave her the tea. “How are you feeling baby?” She looked up at me still half asleep “it hurts, I have the worst period pain ever.” She sat up and drank her tea, after I let her lay on her back massaging her tummy until she dozed of to sleep again, placing the water bottle on her stomach and pulling her closer in my arms. I smelled her hair and fell into a deep sleep. I was in way deeper than I thought.

Chapter 12

Kade

I have never in my entire life experienced something like last night. From the moment Keira came walking into the office up until I made love to her, I have never felt this way before. Nothing that I have ever experienced came close to this feeling, it was intense and from the moment I took her V-card something inside of me clicked into place. I fell for her, I have no idea when it happened all I knew was that it did. I had no words, I have slept with hundreds of women in my lifetime I have done things that not a lot of men have, but never have I made love with a woman who I actually got to know and understand. Who I loved to hang out with and spend time with, I knew I was f****d there was no doubt about it. Looking into those gorgeous blue eyes and seeing pain, and pure pleasure was the best moment in my life. I had no words, all I wanted was to hold her and made her feel save. I never wanted the moment to end, I knew there was no way I could afford to lose her. I didn’t want to breath without her, let alone lose her.

I woke up that next morning with her still in my arms, and took the time to look at her. She looked so innocent which was exactly what she was, but also so peaceful and sweet. Her hair was all over the place and the sunshine shone on her cascading a gorgeous rainbow all over the white bedsheets she softly purred like a kitten, and her one hand was underneath her cheek on top of my chest. It made me wonder if this feeling would ever end. The feeling of pure contentment, I wanted to start something real with her. Buy a house start a family, beautiful babies who look like equal parts me and her. All mixed together to form the perfect human being, I wanted to stay like this even when we both have nothing, I would still have it all. She came into my life completely wrecking everything I ever thought I knew and completely turned it around. Learning and teaching me compassion and humanity. This weekend couldn’t come fast enough I wanted to see her in a different light, where she could be free to do what ever she wanted and didn’t have a care in the world. The excitement filled me.

The rest of the week we made love every single morning and night, and in between she would bring me lunch and I will have to admit I am no gentleman when it came to my wife. Yes, I used every single opportunity I could find to bend her over. The fact that she is a gymnast was such a big turn on I could barely control myself. But driving to her grandparents now finally on our way, she looked so happy. She hangs out of the window like a crazy person. We played more getting to know each other better games and we shared some incredible stories. She loved to hear the stories of my time in the Navy and I loved telling her all about it. She sang along to some of her favorite songs and placed both her feet on the dash, we arrived in the small town after 4 hours of driving. She gave me the direct instructions on how to get to her father’s parents’ home, and I have to say I was impressed. The home had the feeling of a log cabin only it was at least three stories high; the front porch had a white swing chair and the wood creaked as we stepped unto it. The door swung open and her grandmother stormed her enveloping her into a big bear hug kissing her over and over again. “Nanna, this is Kade my husband.” Her grandmothers eyes went wide and then pulled me into a hug. “It’s so nice to meet you son, you can call me Nanna or Lilly any way you prefer.” I smiled at the woman she was warm and friendly. “It’s really nice to meet you Nanna.” Her eyes lit up like the forth of July. She led us inside and upon entering I stood in awe, the whole place was wood and pictures framed the walls. Kiera and her parents photos were everywhere and it was clear that her grandparents were extremely proud. We walked through the living and dining room until we reached the kitchen, it laid out on the left while there was another dining table on the right the stairs led up to what I presumed might be the bedrooms. I sat at the dining table near the kitchen while Lilly went on and on about all the things happening in town, and her grandpa who refuses to get some help on the ranch. The place was gorgeous I stood in awe I always thought these people lived in small cabins of some sorts, but this was incredible. “How do you take your coffee dear?” I smiled at this womans enthusiasm, but Kiera jumped in and told her how I took my coffee. “Your grandpa would be back for lunch; goodness alone knows that man is so stubborn I have no idea what to do with him. He just doesn’t stop. He is driving me up the walls.” Kiera started laughing “well that reminds me of someone I know.” She turned and winked at me, and just on time a much older man walked through the door, he was short in height but he walked in a different way which made me remember Kiera told me her grandpa lost his legs during his time in the marine core, he used to be a lot taller. He looked just like the older version of Kiera’s dad, but the smile stretched instantly on his face when he saw my gorgeous wife. She ran up to him and hugged him close, I got up and walked over “Grand pappy this is Kade my husband,” I stretched out my hand ready to meet the man who calls my wife constantly but he did not look happy to see me. He grabbed my hand and pressed hard, I am not easily intimidated so I pressed harder. It became a thing both of us keeping eye contact, truth be told for a old man he had a lot of power in his hands that much was no surprise. His hands were hard, “seriously grandpa, you both having a piss competition right now.” But he looked at me with all seriousness “if you ever break my grandbaby’s heart, I will break every bone in your body and finish the job with my shot gun.” Kiera had horror written all over her face which gave me the idea he has never threatened anyone and he meant every single word. “Yes sir, I would hand you the shot gun.” He searched my eyes for conformation and he clearly found that I am just as serious as he was. With that he gave my hand a last hard press before letting go, he then grabbed Kiera again into a big hug and showered her with kisses. I loved seeing her in casual wear, today she wore short cut of shorts and a tank top with her cowboy boots. Her hair was braided into two braids and her face void of makeup, it was clear that here she was loved for who she was. No pretense and no pun intended. We sat down for lunch which consisted of sandwiches, really great sandwiches and coffee. While her grandma gossiped all the time about every single person in town, my beautiful wife just gave me a small smile and winked. While her grandpa was silently eating, every time her grandpa wanted to say something her Nanna would give him a look of how dare you interrupt me can’t you see I am busy talking? I wanted to laugh every single time, and she said he drove her insane. This woman would have me insane, she was a beauty for her age though. Her hair was cut into a short bob, and grey but her eyes was filled with love and her smile brought out something incredible just like Kiera’s. And I could see why her husband adored her, he kept on staring at her with so much love and I wondered how they did it after all these years. He held her hand while they ate and every now and again, he would lift up her hand and kiss her knuckles. Those old pair of hands. He adored her, just as much as I adored Kiera. Every time I saw her felt like the verry first time. After lunch her grandma still haven’t taken a single breath and I could see her grandpa was picking up his cowboy hat. She called the whole family on both sides telling them that Kiera and I came for a visit and they would have a BBQ and bonfire tonight. She invited everyone and then wanted us to go do some shopping, but I declined. “I think I am going with your grandpa, if he doesn’t mind. Maybe he has a extra hat for me.” His eyes snapped towards me and I had the feeling nobody ever offered to do something with him or want to help. Kiera’s eyes lit up and I knew she appreciated the offer; I walked over and pulled her close kissing those perfect beautiful lips and my whole body exploded. Not with lust, but I knew I was a goner for her. She smiled sweetly blushing slightly. “Drive safe and call me if you need anything,” I took out and handed her my card “everything’s on me.” Her smile widened “Do I look broke to you?” And I knew this was coming “No, but I want to do this. I am here because I want to be not because I have to. Please baby.” She nodded and kissed me again. I then turned around and took the hat from her grandpa, right here we go. Let’s face this like I do everything else in my life. Right and straight on.
