A few days later- Vincent
The next morning, Vincent was awoken by a soft voice calling his name. He turned to see Inessa waddling into his room, her hair a mess and a sleepy look on her face.
"Vince, are you sleeping?" she whispered.
"No, I'm counting the stars," he replied sarcastically, causing her to laugh and playfully slap his chest.
She sat next to him on his bed and looked at him with a serious expression. "I want to discuss our honeymoon since we're getting married in two weeks," she said.
Vincent smiled at her, "Fine, where do you want to go?"
"Dubai," she said with a smile.
Vincent chuckled, "I wanted to go to Italy."
Inessa frowned, "But Dubai has everything, the beaches, the food, the shopping..."
They playfully argued back and forth about the location, but eventually settled on Dubai, making Inessa beam with happiness as she hugged him and repeated her thanks.
But as she talked excitedly about their upcoming trip, Vincent felt a pang of guilt in his chest. He knew that after they got married, he would have to tell her the truth about everything. He couldn't bear the thought of breaking her heart, but he also knew that keeping his secret would only make things worse.
He had to bury his feelings and push them aside, no matter how much it hurt him. For now, he would enjoy the time he had left with her before the truth came out.
Vincent lay back on his bed, his mind filled with thoughts of Inessa. He couldn't help but feel guilty for his thoughts, but he couldn't deny the attraction he felt towards her.
He closed his eyes and let out a frustrated sigh. He knew that he had to bury his feelings for her, but it was becoming increasingly difficult to do so.
After a few minutes, he opened his eyes and sat up. He looked around his room, trying to distract himself from his thoughts. He noticed a book on his bedside table and picked it up, hoping to lose himself in its pages.
But as he tried to read, his mind kept drifting back to Inessa. He could still feel the warmth of her body as she had leaned in to kiss him goodnight, and the sight of her walking away had left him with a strong desire.
He couldn't take it anymore. He got up and went to his bathroom, turning on the shower and stepping in. He let the hot water wash over him, trying to ease the tension in his body.
But as he closed his eyes and let his thoughts wander, he couldn't help but imagine Inessa joining him in the shower. His body responded to the thought, and he couldn't resist any longer.
He quickly finished his shower, got dressed, and left his room to find some privacy. As he walked down the hallway, he couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt and shame.
But at the same time, he knew he couldn't deny his desires any longer. He had to find a way to satisfy them without hurting Inessa or anyone else.
Vincent sighed as he walked back to his room, hoping that he could find a way to control his feelings and desires for the sake of his mission and the people he cared about.
Vincent took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing heart. He couldn't believe how much Inessa affected him, how just the sight of her could turn him on so easily.
He closed his eyes and leaned back against the headboard, trying to clear his mind. He couldn't afford to get distracted by his desires, not when there was so much at stake.
But even as he tried to push Inessa out of his thoughts, her image kept creeping back in. He could picture her laughing, her eyes sparkling with mischief. He could feel her soft lips against his, her body pressed against his.
With a frustrated groan, he gave in to his urges and reached down to take care of himself. As he stroked himself, his mind was filled with images of Inessa, driving him closer and closer to the edge.
When he finally came, it was with her name on his lips. He lay back, panting and spent, but feeling guilty for letting his desires get the best of him.
He knew he had to stay focused on their plan, no matter how difficult it was. But it was getting harder and harder to resist Inessa's charms, and he knew he was playing a dangerous game. He couldn't let Inessa distract him from their mission, no matter how much he wanted her.
Vincent took a deep breath and tried to clear his mind, pushing away his desire for Inessa. He knew he couldn't afford to give in to his lust and risk ruining everything. With a heavy heart, he got up and headed to the bathroom to take a cold shower.
As the cold water ran over his body, he let out a sigh and tried to focus on his mission, on saving his mother.But as he dried off and got dressed, his thoughts kept drifting back to Inessa.
He knew he was falling for her, hard, and it scared him. He couldn't afford to lose sight of his goal, but at the same time, he didn't want to hurt her.He shook his head and forced himself to focus on the day ahead, on planning their trip to Dubai for their honeymoon.
He couldn't let his feelings get in the way of their happiness, not when he had so much at stake.With a heavy heart, he made his way downstairs to join the others, hoping that he could keep his emotions in check and not let them get in the way of their plans.
As he entered the kitchen, he saw Inessa sitting at the table, already deep in conversation with Treyvon and Zariah. She looked up as he walked in, and he felt his heart skip a beat at the sight of her.
"Morning," she said, smiling at him.
"Morning," he replied, taking a seat next to her.
As they continued to plan their trip, Vincent found himself lost in thoughts of Inessa. He knew he couldn't let his feelings get in the way, but he couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to be with her.
He shook his head, trying to clear his mind once again. He couldn't afford to let his guard down, not now, not when so much was at stake.
As they finished their planning, Vincent excused himself and headed outside to clear his head. He took a deep breath of fresh air and looked up at the sky, wondering what the future held.
But as he stood there lost in thought, he felt a presence behind him. He turned to see Inessa standing there, a concerned look on her face.
"Are you okay?" she asked, placing a hand on his arm.
Vincent felt his heart race at her touch, but he forced himself to stay focused.
"I'm fine," he said, trying to sound convincing.
Inessa looked at him skeptically but didn't push the issue.
"Okay," she said, giving his arm a reassuring squeeze before heading back inside.
Vincent watched her go, his heart heavy with the weight of his secrets. He knew he had to tell her the truth, but he didn't know how. All he knew was that he had to find a way to keep her safe, no matter the cost.
