“And?” I probed further, taking off the fake moustache.
“And,” she hesitated,“I want him to be intelligent, unlike you,” she teased, and I raised my brows.
“Unlike me?” I echoed, cupping her neck.
She nodded lightly, yielding to the soft strokes of my thumb on her jaw.
“And?” I persisted slowly, leaning closer to her ear, feeling her cheeks flush from the fire’s warmth.
“And,” she inhaled deeply before whispering,“now, I want him to be you.”
Her words made me close my eyes, and I kissed her ear.
“You are so beautiful,” I couldn’t help but remark.
“Tell me something I don’t know,” she murmured.
I breathed against the curve of her neck, responding softly and deeply.“And I found you fuckable since the day we got half married,”
She shivered slightly in my arms and touched my wrist, tilting her head to the side.
“And?” she muttered, bringing a smile to my face.
“And I can't do that,” I murmured in response.
“Why?” she questioned in a slow and sensual voice.
I couldn't help but nudge my nose against her cheek.“You need to fulfil your bet first.”
She gulped, looking into my eyes.“Can’t you get over that?”
I bit my lip and shook my head.“No, I'm strict about bets.”
She smiled timidly at me.
“But I don't know how to do that,” she said, reminding me once again.
“Well, if you're determined, you can learn,” I said slowly as she lowered her gaze to my lips for a moment.
“What about learning by watching?” she muttered slowly.
I struggled to keep my smile in check as I asked,“You want to see?”
She bit her lower lip slightly and asked,“Is it too far?”
I shook my head.“No, not too far,” I said, then asked,“Do you want to go?”
She gulped nervously and nodded.“A little,”
I chuckled, helping her stand up immediately.
“Okay, then let's go,” I said.
She widened her eyes.“What about the fire?”
I replied, taking her to Ashwait.“It will keep the wild animals away from here.”
She giggled, and I quickly helped her tie a turban around her hair bun. She swiftly fashioned the turban and applied the fake moustache.
