Tom was reading a series of poems to me in bed as he had every night to calm me. To try and give me the most calm and peaceful sleep, to drive the nightmares away. But that night sleep was the last thing I wanted.
"Tom?" I whisper.
"Yes darling?" He says as he places the book on his lap and looks towards me, an attempt at trying to decifer my thoughts.
"I want to try something.... I want you Tom, in every single way possible. I want to experience it, I just want you." I admitted while anxiously fixating on his face, biting my lip as I wait for his reaction.
"Well that's a new and interesting development." He chuckled before turning serious. "But are you sure Adi? I don't want you to think that's all I want from you, I don't want to scare or make you feel uncomfortable."
"I've never been so sure of anything in my life. I'm ready. If you'd have me..." I trail off feeling incredibly insecure.
"Under one condition.."
"Condition?" I ask, genuinely confused.
"Yes, my love. If you decide to change your mind, at any point, you must tell me right away and I'll stop." He says and I nod my head, that's a very thoughtful condition.
"Umm- what do I do? I don't want to do anything wrong." I state, eyebrows furrowing as I try and work it out on my own.
Tom chuckles. " you darling, need only to relax, I will guide you. Don't worry, you could never do anything wrong in my eyes. I'll be very gentle." He sweetly smiles at me and I nod.
He gently presses his lips to mine and we melt into our kiss. He leaves tingles soaring through my body as he lightly brushes my thighs. His hands gently roaming my entire body.
He's barely even touched me yet, and I'm already crumbling in front of him.
He has me right where he wants me and I'm certainly not complaining.
I never want to stop...
...
That night was the probably the best night of my life, I had never felt pleasure like it before, I never wanted it to end.
Our relationship dynamic had changed a bit after that, Intimacy was easy between us, only behind closed doors though. I felt like Tom had even started to respect me and open up to me more.
It felt as if we had really turned a corner, for the good. That summer, although slightly tainted by sadness, was one where I would actually consider myself the happiest.
I started to love Tom with everything I had. I doubted the ground he walked on, and he did mine. We were inseparable. We- well I. Was in love.
...
"Adriana? Can I come in?" The sweet and alluring voice of Tom beckoned from outside my room.
"Of course." I answer back and he quickly opens the door, a smile on his face which I return.
And then he says the worse thing he could...
"My lovely Adriana, I think it's time to introduce you to the meetings myself and my followers hold. This one will be incredibly exciting and I want you there by my side." He smirks, a level of sinister excitement consumes his aura.
I was dreading the day that Tom would bring me into what I can only imagine is some kind of cult. I didn't want to be apart of it. I knew Tom had a dark mind, and yet- I wanted to stay in my little bubble of ignorance. What I didn't know couldn't hurt me...
And yet, despite every bone in my body telling me to refuse, I knew that this was a demand rather than a question. One that had I refused, would be met with consequences or punishment.
"Okay Tom. I'll go." I send him a wide fake smile, one that he falls for completely.
