Intimacy

The chaos, all the unrest in her heart seemed to have halted all of a sudden. 

I do love you. 

But that's not all that I feel for you. 

You have consumed me. 

I belong to you. 

Only the remnant of his words lingered around her filling her with a bliss and peace that she had never felt before and with the sense of security that she had never had with someone other than him. 

Diana wanted to do so much more. To say something and to respond to him yet she knew her words will fail her in that moment. 

Hence, she did what she could manage.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and captured his lips, conveying words that were left unsaid. 

Maxim took in a deep breath as their lips touched. He raked his fingers through her hair and dove in deeper into the kiss. 

His other hand wrapped around her waist as he hoisted her up in his arms and stood up before he walked towards the bed. 

He placed her on the bed.
