Chapter Eighteen

When I finally awoke, I thought I would be alone. I thought that Brax would be out doing chores, but to my surprise he was still sleeping soundly beside me. 

I timidly unhooked his arm from my naked hip and could not help but smile widely at him. 

So this was what pure happiness was; if I woke up to him beside me everyday, I know that I would feel blessed. 

Brax was just so handsome and I still could not believe that such a man was interested in me. I knew I was pretty enough but I was not exactly confident with my body. 

I quietly walked into my Bathroom and turned the shower on, on full heat. I needed to wash last nights sweat away. 

As I stepped into the shower, I was painfully aware of how weak I still felt. 

If this was how I felt after a little bit of foreplay.. just what would sex be like with him? I laughed to myself, at the very thought.
