He knelt down in front of me, his movements slow, deliberate. I blinked, startled, as he reached into a small box, pulling out two diamond anklets. They sparkled under the light, and for a moment, I just stared at them in awe. "I bought these for you," he said softly, his voice almost reverent as he lifted my leg gently onto his knee. I felt my breath catch in my throat as he held my ankle with a tenderness I wasn't sure he even realized he was capable of.

She entered the room, and the next moment she was thrown on the bed and he hovered over her pinning her both hands above her head. "What... are you doing?" she stammered, her voice shaking as she looked at him. His messy hair and red eyes radiated anger. "Why did you let him fucking touch you?" he growled, his gaze locked onto hers, demanding an answer. "He just... held my hand," she replied quickly, trying to suppress his anger. "He didn't just fucking hold your hand; he touched you for fucking 35 seconds!" he shouted, his voice echoing with disappointment. For a moment, she feared that she had lost him, that he would never trust her again and leave her, just like her family had. Next second his rough lips captured her soft lips in a kiss, with each deep suck on her lips he erased her insecurities devouring her mouth like graveman. The kiss was not the soft one it was rough, dominating and possesive one as if conveying his sadness, ownership and love. "Strip" He asserted in his deep dominating voice.
