When the light fades

Kai walked into the room, his eyes scanning the space until they found her. She was seated on the floor, her back against the wall, her knees to her chest and her head bowed between her arms. For a moment, he gazed at her, taking in the sight of his lover. Then, he walked over to her.

He bent before her, gently lifting her chin to meet her gaze. Her hazel eyes, once bright and shining with happiness, now looked sad and troubled. The same eyes that had always sparkled with love for him now seemed to hold a deep sorrow.

He gently held her face, using his thumb to wipe away her tears. He pressed a soft kiss to her forehead, then gazed into her eyes once more before brushing his lips against hers. Next, he carefully lifted her from the floor and sat down on the edge of the bed, where a small sofa was positioned. He guided her to straddle him, wrapping his arms tightly around her as he pulled her close, her head resting on his shoulder.

And responding to her tears, he whispered, 'I love you so much, Lu. I'm deeply sorry for making you cry. I never want to hurt you. I want your eyes to always sparkle with happiness, and I want the love you have for me to forever shine bright in them. I want you by my side every day, and I'll always choose you. I'm sorry if I made you sad, and I'm sorry if I made you cry. I promise to do my best to never let you feel sad again, to always make you feel loved, and to never make you feel like you compete with someone else. Please, baby, always talk to me, and don't hold back your feelings. If you don't, you'll only end up hurt, and that's the last thing I want. I love you so much, and I need you to trust me, OK?

As he finished speaking, he wrapped his arms around her, holding her close as he stroked her back. She didn't respond with words, but instead, she hugged him tighter, her silence speaking volumes. He gently leaned back, guiding her with him, and settled into the bed. Then, he carefully laid her down, cradling her in his arms as he whispered "I'd make it up to you my woman" helping her drift off to sleep.

He carefully replaced himself with a pillow, ensuring she remained comfortable, before getting up to retrieve his phone. He dialed Raymond, his assistant, who answered promptly. 'Raymond, I need you to arrange something special,' he instructed. 'Please deliver five bouquets of fresh flowers to the dining area - one bouquet of long-stemmed red roses, one of white lilies, one of exotic orchids, one of elegant Camellias, and one of red tulips. Ensure the dining area is exquisitely arranged for a romantic dinner date. I want everything to be perfect.

He selected a nice tuxedo from his wardrobe and prepared himself, anxiously waiting for her to wake up. Time seemed to stand still as he waited for what felt like an eternity, knowing she was exhausted. The moment she stirred, he rushed to her side, his eyes locked on hers. 'My princess,' he whispered, his lips brushing against hers in a gentle kiss. 'I have a special evening planned, just for you. I want you to dress in something stunning, something that will leave me breathless. Make yourself gorgeous for me, and then meet me downstairs.' Her face lit up with a smile as she rose from the bed, heading to the bathroom for a refreshing shower. Meanwhile, Kai went downstairs to wait for her.

The dining area looked amazing. Candles lined the walkway, leading to a beautifully set table. Soft petals covered the floor, while exquisite bouquets adorned one side of the room. The lights were dimmed, allowing the warm glow of the candles and the delicate petals to shine brightly. A stunning balloon display on the wall spelled out 'I love you so much' in bold letters. The ambiance was nothing short of magical, making it the perfect makeup dinner date for Lu.

Kai's gaze was fixed on the staircase, the wait feeling like an eternity. He couldn't wait to see her descend in all her glory, looking like the princess, wife, lover, queen, and everything he adored. Finally, she emerged, wearing a stunning long white silk dress that displayed her curves, her hair tied up in a messy yet elegant bun, and subtle makeup enhancing her natural beauty. Kai was captivated, feeling as though he'd beheld the most breathtaking sight on earth. He gazed at her with profound admiration, his heart overflowing with love and devotion.

As she glided down the stairs with regal elegance, a bright smile illuminated her face, and tears of joy welled up in her eyes. Her husband's thoughtfulness never failed to amaze her. Kai restrained himself, watching her descend like a goddess, his heart swelling with emotion.

He watched her descend the staircase, mesmerized by her elegance. As she reached the bottom, he took her hand, leading her to the table. He pulled out her chair, and she sat down, her eyes never leaving his. He then took his seat, his gaze locked on hers.

"You're breathtakingly beautiful," he whispered, his voice filled with emotion. "You're the most stunning thing I've ever laid eyes on. I'm certain I want to spend the rest of my life with you, every day, every moment, as long as I breathe. I want you forever.

Her smile never wavered, her eyes shining with love and adoration. She gazed at him, her heart overflowing with devotion, her love for him radiating like a beacon.

As I want to share the meaning behind each bouquet, let's start with the roses. They represent my unwavering love for you; I promise to love you forever, without end. Next, the white lilies symbolize forgiveness and purity. Let's vow always to forgive each other and maintain pure hearts, ensuring our love remains unbreakable.

The orchids embody the affection and luxury I feel for you. I hope our love continues to flourish, never fading, but instead growing stronger with each passing day. You're my most treasured possession, and I cherish you above all else.

The Camellia represents you – a beautiful, refined, and elegant woman. In my eyes, you'll forever be the most breathtaking sight I've ever beheld. Lastly, the red tulips signify passionate love and attraction. I yearn for you every day, and my desire for you only grows stronger with each passing moment."

As he spoke, his words dripped with sincerity, and he drew closer to her, his lips meeting hers in a tender kiss. He swept her off her feet, carrying her to the couch without breaking their kiss.

They lost themselves in the moment, wrapped up in each other like a binding thread. Their lips met in a heated kiss, deepening with every second as passion consumed them. She tangled her fingers in his hair, pulling him closer, savoring the way his mouth moved against hers. The kiss grew more intense, desire pulsing between them, an unspoken need building beyond the physical. They craved each other in every way-mind, body, and soul.

Kai's hands slid up her thighs, his touch sending shivers through her. She moaned softly, loving the way he made her feel. As his hands traveled upward, he cupped her small, firm breasts, eliciting another gasp. She arched into his touch, her body desperate for more. He pulled her dress over her head, his gaze locking onto hers. And in her eyes, he saw it-raw, unfiltered want.

Lowering his head, he took one of her nipples into his mouth, swirling his tongue around the sensitive peak while his hands worked on removing his shirt. The moment his lips touched her, she cried out, trying to speak, to call his name, but her words came out in broken whispers. Finally, she managed, "I want you."

A thrill ran through Kai at her words. He loved that he could make her feel this way, that he could bring her to this point of desperation. He wanted her to experience every bit of pleasure he had to offer. Sweeping her into his arms, he carried her to the bedroom, laying her gently on the bed. His eyes roamed over her, filled with hunger.

"How badly do you want me?" he asked.

In response, she pulled him into a rough, needy kiss. His hand slid into her panties, and he groaned at the wetness he found there. She was drenched, her body already begging for him. He circled her clit with his fingers, watching as she writhed beneath him, moaning in bliss. Her hips moved in sync with his touch, chasing the pleasure he was giving her.

He pulled her panties down, tossed them aside, then unbuckled his belt. As he rid himself of his trousers, her eyes widened when she saw him-hard, thick, and pulsing with need. She licked her lips, her gaze filled with desire.

Kai stepped out of his boxers, his erection standing tall before her. He didn't rush. Instead, he kissed his way down her body, trailing his tongue along her stomach before reaching the place where she needed him most. He flicked his tongue over her clit, sucking it between his lips as she cried out.

He didn't stop. He couldn't.

She moaned louder, her body shaking, her hands gripping the sheets as pleasure overtook her. "Please," she whimpered. "I want you right now."

That was all he needed. Rising above her, he positioned himself between her legs, the tip of his length pressing against her entrance. He pushed in slowly, savoring the way her body welcomed him. She let out a long, breathy moan, her fingers digging into his back.

He started with slow, deep thrusts, then gradually increased his pace. She wrapped her arms around his neck, holding him close, gasping with each movement. "Baby, please don't stop," she pleaded.

Stopping wasn't an option.

He lowered his mouth to her breast, sucking and nibbling as he drove into her. Tears slipped from the corners of her eyes-not from pain, but from overwhelming pleasure. She wanted him. Only him. She wanted to feel this way every day, to have him as hers forever.

After a while, he lifted her legs, resting them on his shoulders as he thrust deeper. His fingers found her clit again, rubbing in rhythm with his movements. Their eyes met, and at that moment, they knew-they couldn't live without each other.

Their bodies moved as one, pleasure building, the tension coiling tight inside them. He pounded into her, chasing the high that was just within reach. Her moans became screams, his name falling from her lips like a prayer. He felt himself nearing the edge, his release just seconds away.

Then, the question hit him. Should he spill inside her? Were they ready for what that could mean?

At the last moment, he pulled out, both of them crying out as their pleasure peaked. For a few seconds, all they could hear was the sound of their heavy breathing, their hearts pounding in sync. Their bodies, their souls-completely connected.

Kai collapsed beside her, pulling her into his arms. She nestled against his chest, their bodies still tingling with the aftermath. No words were needed. They simply held each other, drifting into sleep, lost in the warmth of their shared passion.
