Chapter 73
73 73- Her Only Haven
Marissa thought she was dreaming. She had dreamed about him for so long during the last four years. Lying beside her and telling her things she longed to hear in her reality but couldn’t.
He wasn’t wearing a shirt, and his washboard nak*ed chest was so close to her that she could easily move forward and lick it. She could touch and feel it. Just like she used to do when they were together. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
She propped up on one elbow and eyed him with uncertainty.
“What are you looking at?” He murmured looking into her eyes. hand raised and held the long black hair lock in his grip that was touching his cheek.

“I’m trying to understand if this is a dream or reality,” she tried to control her tears, “I missed you so much.”
“I missed you too,” his hand got up to hold her chin, “I missed you too, strawberry…”
Her lips curled up in a smile and he couldn’t move his eyes away from her face, “You are so beautiful.”
She didn’t respond and started leaning down slowly.
“What are you doing?” his voice was barely above a whisper.
“Something I can never dare to do in reality,” placing her palm on his hard abs, she touched her lips to his, moving them gently over his.
Feeling its softness.

She smiled against his lips when heard his moaning, “M…
Marissa…”
But Marissa wasn’t ready to open her eyes.
Her lips were now opening wide trying to suck in his mouth. This mouth… she always missed its taste.
By now her hand crawled up to hold his rough cheek.
She groaned when felt his arm snaking around her waist pulling her to him more tightly. With another hand, he held the side of her face and pushed his tongue inside her mouth.
Marissa’s eyes
eyes were rolling back slowly in ecstasy.
Tightening his hold around her, he flipped their bodies, lying on top of her. But now he had stopped kissing her. His forehead was leaning against hers and they both were panting.
“Y… you need to go back to sleep,” he whispered, “I don’t want you to regret this in the morning.”
She closed her eyes and chewed her upper lip in embarrassment, “Then promise me you’ll come to my dream again.”
Her hands were holding his naked waist quite tightly. Her fingers. were dying to move lower and see if he still felt that hot around her fingers.
“I promise, I will. If you’ll allow me,” He gave a quick kiss on her lips.
She kissed him back and he started dropping butterfly kisses on
her face.
“Go to sleep otherwise… oh, God!” he pulled her slim figure
intensely in his embrace and started brushing her soft hair with

his fingers.
Marissa could feel his hardness against her thigh.
Up till now, this one was the best dream, and she couldn’t wait for the next night to come. She was planning to ask him shamelessly to
make love to her.
They never made love when his eyes could see her. It was always
done when he was blind.
Sniffing in, his scent she slowly drifted into a deep sleep, momentarily forgetting about her wet panties.
The last thing she remembered was him brushing his lips over hers softly.

Marissa stretched in her bed with a wide smile and got up. The last night’s dream was still fresh in her mind.
She looked down at her disoriented gown and shook her head. Clasping it together, she looked up at the wall clock.
Kids must be sleeping by now. If Sophie would be awake, she could ask her to make a cup of coffee before going to the bathroom.
As expected, Sophie was furiously typing on her laptop.
“Good morning!” Sophie who wasn’t expecting her presence jumped up in fright, “You scared me to death. I’m already typing a report about dead bodies, and you are making it worse. God! This is the second time someone tried to do that!”
She closed her laptop and started doing some stretching
exercises.

“I’m sorry. Needed some coffee if by any chance you are making it for yourself.”
Sophie examined her face, and a mischievous grin etched her lips as she got up from the chair, “Coffee? Uh–huh?” she bumped her shoulder to Marissa, “How many should it be? One cup or two cups…she then nudged her shoulder again, “or maybe three?” she winked.
Marissa looked at her friend in confusion. Poor her didn’t seem alright after staying awake for so long.
“Umm. Don’t bother. I’ll make one for you,” Marissa placed her hand on her shoulder in sympathy and yawned loudly, “But first I need to go to the bathroom,” she was walking away when her friend called
her name.
“Marissa!” she stopped and tilted her head, “how was the night?”
This time Marissa turned full one hundred and eighty degrees and placed a hand on her hip, “By any chance are you thinking that I made love to myself? Come on. I didn’t even use a vibrator for the last few nights.”
Ignoring Sophie’s silly smile, Marissa went inside her room. She badly needed to pee and take a shower. She grabbed a clean underwear from her drawer and headed to the bathroom. She was
about to twist the handle of the bathroom door but strangely enough, the knob took a life of its own and turned.
Marissa pulled back her hand in fright and saw the door opening by itself. She wanted to scream and call Sophie, but her voice got
stuck in her throat.

What the hell was going on? Who entered her bedroom and wast
now using the bathroom without her permission.
And now … she was about to get a heart attack.
“R–Rafael!” she stuttered, “W… when did you arrive.”
She was trying her best to ignore his wet body where water droplets were running down his muscles, getting absorbed in the towel wrapped around his waist.
What was he doing in her bathroom?
“W…what are you doing here?” she managed to ask him. Rafael very casually looked over his shoulder.
“The same what most of the people do in the bathroom. Shower!” he came out of it to walk past her but at the last minute held her wrist dragging her along with him.
“When did you come? I didn’t even see you entering the bedroom,” she didn’t protest when he drew her close, shaking his hair and causing tiny drops of water to land on her face.
“Last night you were sleeping. But hey…” he winked, “you did meet me,” her eyes went wide in embarrassment.
We met?
For the love of… it was him! It was not a dream.
“Y…

took advantage of me… and you kissed me…” she tried to pin it on him.
“No. I wasn’t the one who took advantage of you,” he kissed her nose bridge, “I laid beside you like a good boy. It was you who

liked the touch…” Marissa couldn’t hear it anymore and pushed
him aside. She was quick to dart towards the bathroom and lock the door behind her.
For now, it was her only haven.
