Chapter 59: Anticipation

After several minutes of torture, Bella felt that she was on fire. Her core was pulsating with a crazy desire, and she wanted more than his mouth on her.

Each stroke and touch from Reid were like gasoline on her heated skin.

“Reid!” she moaned loudly, touching his hair with one hand.

Reid gazed intensely into Bella's hazel eyes, his dark irises burning with desire, as if attempting to ignite a passionate inferno within her. He reached out to caress her cheek with his fingers, feeling the softness of her skin, a sensation that caused his heart to race and his pulse to quicken. With every tender touch, the flames of lust grew brighter between them.

Their bodies brushed closely, as if drawn together by an invisible force, their hearts pounding in unison, a symphony of passion that echoed through the grandeur of the hotel.

"Bella," Reid whispered softly, his voice a hushed murmur of desire. "Your beauty mesmerizes me. Let me show you how much I want you."

She looked up at him, her gaze filled with uncertainty, yet a fiery hunger burned within her, yearning for release.

With that, she slowly removed her dress, exposing her flawless alabaster skin, leaving only the delicate lace of her panties remaining. Reid couldn't resist the opportunity to admire her alluring form, and he took a moment to savor the sight before him. He appreciated her willingness to bare herself so intimately. With a gentle, almost reverent touch, he reached out to Bella, cupping her face in his hands and bringing his lips down to meet hers.

The kiss was slow, deliberate, and intoxicating, their tongues entwining in a dance of shared hunger. She could taste herself on Reid’s mouth, which made her shy and aroused at the same time. As the world around them seemed to fade away, leaving only the pulsating rhythm of their shared desire, Reid found himself losing himself within the enchanting taste of Bella's essence.

"I've never felt anything like this before," Bella confessed, her voice breathy and trembling. "You make me feel things I didn't know existed."

"And I, you," Reid replied, his voice husky with desire. "Our connection is undeniable, Bella.”

Reid felt himself hard as steel, but this time he held himself back as it was not about him. He went back between Bella’s legs and this time he was merciless. If his previous touches were to entice and arouse her, these were aimed towards her full pleasure.

After several minutes, Bella felt that everything was rotating, and her core was pulsating with desire ready to spill.

Reid was relentless, and he suddenly bit her down there lightly, which sent tremors of pleasure through her entire body. He felt her close, and he added a second finger while devouring her.

Bella lost herself to the pleasure and her body convulsed from the intense orgasm which hit her like a tsunami.

Reid released her body slowly and sat next to her. When she looked at him, he licked one of his fingers and with a wicked expression he said “Yum, delicious.”

She blushed violently, suddenly feeling shy in front of him, trying to retrieve her dress.

He laughed “Don’t hide yourself from me. You will need to get used to this. And I believe this is answering your question that I don’t want to marry you just as a formality.”

After a few more moments, he told her that they should return to their seats as most probably it would not take too long until they reached Las Vegas, while he lifted himself from the bed and recovered his shirt.

“What about you?” Bella asked hesitantly, still blushing.

“What about me?” Reid asked, a bit puzzled.

“You know what I mean, you didn’t…” but she choked in her words, feeling too embarrassed to be vocal.

“Don’t worry about me”, Reid smiled and winked at her. “It was about you this time, Bella. I don’t want you to feel pushed or forced to do anything. We have all the time in the world for more after we get married. But I appreciate the thought.” He replied, while kissing her forehead and entering the small lavatory. After they both refreshed, they returned to their seats.

In the moments following their passionate moment and amid the flight's journey, Bella's emotions were a whirlwind, a tempest of conflicting feelings swirling within her. She sat beside Reid, her heart racing in her chest, feeling the aftershocks of their intimate encounter. It was an overwhelming blend of desire, apprehension, and a hint of thrill at the unknown.

Her mind was abuzz with thoughts, her gaze occasionally drifting to Reid, who seemed composed and collected, the picture of confidence. She marveled at how effortlessly he navigated through situations, seemingly in control of every aspect of their journey. But beneath her fascination lay a lingering sense of vulnerability.

Bella found herself grappling with a mélange of emotions, a part of her thrilled at the prospect of the unexpected, the adventure of it all. Yet, intertwined with her excitement was a thread of trepidation, a voice in the back of her mind whispering caution.

She stole glances at Reid, observing his every movement, every word, trying to decipher his intentions, searching for some assurance. But despite his charming demeanor and reassuring smiles, there remained an enigmatic quality about him that both intrigued and unnerved her.

Their encounter had stirred emotions within her that she hadn't allowed herself to explore fully before. His tender touch, his heartfelt confessions, they resonated with her, tugging at the walls she had meticulously built around her heart. Bella found herself teetering on the edge of vulnerability, unsure whether to leap into the unknown or retreat into the safety of familiarity.

Reid's magnetic presence seemed to envelop her, casting a spell that she struggled to resist. She couldn't deny the pull she felt toward him, the way his words resonated deep within her, awakening feelings she thought she had long buried.

In the cozy confines of the cabin, Bella's eyes flickered with curiosity as Reid winked at her, a playful spark in his gaze. She watched him effortlessly call for a glass of whiskey while she opted for simple water. The anticipation simmered between them as they settled into their seats.

With a coy smile, Bella couldn't help but ask about their plans in Vegas. Reid leaned back comfortably, a glint of mischief in his eyes.

"Well, my dear, I've arranged for a private ceremony for us to tie the knot," he revealed with a hint of satisfaction.

Bella's eyes widened in surprise, a mix of emotions flashing across her face. "A private ceremony?" she echoed, trying to fathom the sudden turn of events.

Reid nodded, a confident grin playing on his lips. "Yes, a small and intimate affair to seal the deal. But don't worry, if you want a grand wedding later on, we can arrange that too."

Bella processed the information, a tinge of amusement in her voice. "You've got this all planned out, haven't you?" she teased, appreciating the unexpected yet thoughtful gesture.

Reid leaned closer, the mischievous glimmer in his eyes growing more pronounced.

"Well, I am a man who appreciates strategy," he quipped, his voice laced with playful intent.

Bella chuckled softly, feeling a wave of excitement mixed with nervousness. "What about after the wedding?" she probed; a hint of curiosity evident in her tone.

Reid's grin widened as he leaned back, crossing his legs comfortably. "Ah, naturally, it's honeymoon time," he declared, the playful smirk not leaving his face.

Bella's cheeks flushed slightly, caught off guard by his candidness. "Honeymoon?" she repeated, her surprise evident.

Reid nodded, the teasing glint in his eyes unwavering. "Yes, we might as well start the marriage off right, don't you think?" he quipped, his tone light yet tinged with a hint of suggestion.

Bella shifted in her seat, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness at the prospect. "You really think you've got it all figured out?" she teased, trying to mask her growing anticipation.

Reid's laughter filled the cabin, a warm and genuine sound. "I try my best," he admitted, a charming smile curving his lips.

Their playful banter eased the tension, allowing them to navigate the unfamiliar territory of their budding relationship with humor and grace. The cabin crew returned with their drinks, and as they sipped in companionable silence, Bella found herself surrendering to the whirlwind of emotions that Reid effortlessly stirred within her.

As the plane glided through the sky, Bella and Reid engaged in light-hearted conversations.

In the quiet intimacy of the cabin, Bella couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder at the unexpected turn her life had taken.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is your pilot speaking. We are about to commence our descent into Las Vegas McCarran International Airport. The local time is 3:45 PM, and the weather in Las Vegas is clear with a comfortable temperature of 25°C. Please ensure your seat belts are securely fastened, seatbacks and tray tables are in their upright positions, and all electronic devices are stowed away. Thank you for flying with us today, and we hope you enjoy your stay in Las Vegas."

As the pilot's voice filled the cabin, signaling the imminent arrival at their destination, Bella felt a rush of nervous anticipation flood through her veins.

She took a deep breath, trying to steady her racing heart. The realization that she was about to embark on a new chapter of her life settled over her, a mixture of excitement and trepidation dancing within her.
