Chapter 79: Separate Beds...

(Kira’s POV)

_________

For the rest of the night, Lena didn’t say a single word to me. Not one.

She didn’t have to.

The tension in the air was thick enough to suffocate me, pressing in from all sides. I could feel the weight of her anger, the quiet fury in the way she moved, the way she refused to even glance in my direction. She knew—knew I was keeping something from her. And Lena wasn’t the kind of person to let things go easily.

She wanted the truth.

And I couldn’t give it to her. Not yet.

It wasn’t that I didn’t trust her. It was that I knew her too well. I knew exactly how she would react, how she would tear through the situation like a storm, demanding answers, demanding action. And I couldn’t afford that. Not now.

This was temporary, I told myself. Just a momentary lapse. With time, she’d cool off. We’d be okay.

At least, that’s what I hoped.

The house felt eerily silent like the walls themselves were holding their breath. After my conversation with Tate, I had lingered outside for far longer than necessary, dreading the moment I’d have to step back inside.

Because the second I did, I would have to face her.

And something told me that whatever happened next...

It wouldn’t be pleasant.

However, she had made the choice for me. When I finally walked back into the house, she was done cooking. She had eaten right there in the kitchen and the moment she was done, she went to the bedroom. I didn’t like this at all. We were supposed to be together, and not fight. This wasn’t a time when we would be at odds with each other.

Yet, I was finding it hard to approach her. I knew that talking to her would only mean lying further to her, and I just didn’t want to do it anymore. I didn’t like the fact that I was lying to my girlfriend and keeping such a thing from her. It didn’t matter that I was doing it for her own good.

I remained in the living room for over an hour, I couldn’t even bring myself to eat the meal she had prepared. Our little fight had sucked out all the appetite I had. All I needed to do was just sleep. However, before then, I opened up her laptop one more time. I searched for the footage that Joan had given her of Maven monitoring my hotel room, then I deleted everything. Now that I knew what the footage entailed, it didn’t make sense to still have it lying around. I didn’t want Lena watching it when I wasn’t there and finding the footage.

When I was done, I got up from the couch and made my way to the bedroom, ready to go to bed. However, to my shock, it was empty. Lena was nowhere to be found.

"Babe?" I called in shock. "Where are you?"

I returned to the kitchen, but it was empty and clean. Then, I made my way to the bathroom, but she wasn’t there either.

"Babe!" I called out more forcefully.

I made my way then to one of the guest bedrooms, and sure enough, I found Lena there. She was lying on the bed, dressed in her nighties, she was busy on her phone when I pushed the door open. When she saw me, she turned in the bed, choosing to face the wall.

"Come on... seriously?" I muttered heatedly as I walked in.

I shook my head, this had gone on as far as it could. I couldn’t allow this issue to linger because it was only going to get worse. I had to stop all this now! Neither I nor Lena were going to bed without reconciling.

I made my way to the bed and sat beside her, "babe, are you ignoring me?"

She said nothing, facing pointedly away from me.

"Come on, honey. Talk to me."

"I’m just trying to sleep, can you leave?" She snapped at me.

"Come to the bedroom," I told her.

"Hell no! I’m not in the mood right now."

"Well then, you better get in the mood! Get up... let’s go!"

"I just told you no!" She said as she sat up, blowing hair from her face. "Leave me the fuck alone!"

I paused then, looking at her forlornly as I sucked in a deep breath, "Babe, I’m sorry. I know you think that I’m keeping things from you..."

"I think?" She snapped, "Are you fucking kidding me? How the hell am I thinking about it? I know for a fact that you’re keeping things from me!"

"Okay, you’re right. But please, let’s not fight about this."

"Not until you tell me what it is." She replied stubbornly as she folded her arms over her breasts. "That thing you’re keeping from me, I want to know what it is."

I looked at her, her face was resolute, she had really made up her mind. With a sigh, I climbed further into the bed and sat before her, taking her hand in mine, "Babe, I just need time. You’ll find out everything in due time. But for now... just give me some time, please."

She shook her head, "I don’t think so."

"Have I ever kept anything from you before?" I cried, "This is the first time I’m doing such a thing, you have to understand that I’m doing it for a reason. Please, I cannot tell you right now!"

"Well... if that’s the case..." she was about to lie back down on the bed but I caught her by the elbow and gently stopped her, "Please baby, I don’t want to sleep separately from you tonight. I need you by my side. I need you right here with me, baby."

She looked at me but didn’t make a move to relinquish my hold on her elbow. Seeing it as a good sign, I leaned forward and planted my lips over hers, kissing her deeply. At first, she didn’t respond, however, I knew Lena’s body better than even she knew it. I took one of her breasts and squeezed it, paying special attention to the nipple. The next thing I heard was the sound of her moaning against my ear as she began to kiss me back.

Her hands circled my neck as I pulled her closer. Since she was petite, I was able to carry her and place her on my lap where she straddled me. As we kissed hard, my free hand traveled down the length of her body, causing her to moan with pleasure until I could feel the warmth and moisture between her legs. She was wet and ready for me.

Pulling my lips from hers, I slipped a finger inside her, causing her to moan with pleasure, her entire body shuddering from the force of the pleasure. I then lowered my head to her free breasts, taking her nipple into my mouth and sucking hard on it while I began to move my finger inside her. I soon added another digit, moving the fingers fiercely as she held me close to herself.

"Oh yes..." she moaned loudly, holding me close by my hair as she trashed against me. "That’s it! That’s it right there!"

I fucked her faster with my fingers, going as fast as I could, feeling the same pleasure that she was feeling as she hugged me to herself. Just as she moaned continuously against my ear, I couldn’t help but moan over and over into her chest as I feasted on her breasts, moving from one glorious globe to the other.

Her nightgown was hiked all the way, giving me all the access I needed as I kept working my fingers inside her. Soon, she was grinding against me, raking her body over mine as she sought her climax. It was just there, inches away from her.

Not long after, her orgasm hit her. It was sudden, but it was also loud. Her entire body shuddered against me. She shoved her honeypot further against my hand as if she wanted to swallow it whole, she then pushed my head against her breasts, as if she wanted me inside her. Her entire body trembled from the orgasm and she came hard.

By the time she was done, she was panting hard, breathing fast as she looked down at me. I slowly pulled my fingers out of her. They were wet and shiny with her juices, I then stuck them in her mouth which she sucked on gingerly.

When she licked it all off, she rested her head against mine, trying to get herself back under control. I could hear her breathing slowly begin to stabilize. And soon, she pulled away from me and got off the bed.

"Babe..." I called her.

"You told me to return to our bedroom, didn’t you?" Her tone was flat.

I knew then that despite what we had just shared, nothing much had changed. Lena was still mad at me, and she was only going to sleep in my bed tonight because I asked her to.

While it felt like a little progress, I couldn’t shake off the feeling that I had made things worse.
