Moonlit Awakening

Chapter 21

Liam

"Ember?" Liam asks, "Do you think you can take Alexander out tonight?"

"I can do that, but why do you want me too?" she responds.

He blushes. "I want to spend some time with Alice."

"Okay, you don't have to say anything else. I get what you mean."

He nods. "Thank you."

Later that night, after Ember takes Alexander out, he finds Alice, looking confused. "L...Liam?" she asks, "Where are Ember and Alexander going? Why couldn't I go with..." He strides over to her, his fingers trace the delicate curve of her waist before sliding lower, sending shivers of anticipation through her. She gasps as he gently cups her, drawing her closer, their bodies now intimately connected. Their eyes locked, reflecting the raw desire that now consumes them. As their breaths quicken, he whispers seductively, "I want you, more than anything." And with that, he lifts her, carrying her to the soft, inviting bed.

She blushes as he carries her upstairs to her bedroom. They fall into the bed, their lips meeting in a passionate kiss, electricity coursing through their bodies. His hands roam her back, causing shivers of pleasure to ripple through her. She can't help, but moan against his lips, her desire growing with each passing second. Pulling her closer, he deepens the kiss, their tongues dancing in an exciting tango. Lost in the moment, they let their inhibitions fall away, consumed in raw, primal need for each other.

He pulls away from her as they undress each other, their eyes never leaving each other's, the tension between them grows to almost unbearable levels. When they are finally naked, their bodies glistening with sweat and desire, they come together with an intensity that leaves no doubt about their love. Their bodies move in perfect harmony, each touch, each caress, more intense than the last. As they reach the pinnacle of their passion, their cries of ecstasy fill the room, a testament to the depth of their love and the intensity of their desire. And as they collapse onto the bed, spent and breathless, they know that this is a love that would last a lifetime. Afterwards, he watches her as she falls into a deep, peaceful sleep.

Alice

When Alice wakes up in the next morning, she finds Liam awake, simply watching her. "L...Liam?" she murmurs.

"Good morning, love," he answers, "Did you sleep well?"

She blushes. "Y...yes."

"Alice, I have a question...don't freak out when I ask it, okay?" She seems puzzled. "What do you want to do for our wedding?"

She pales, looking uncertain. "O...oh, I don't know. Erm...how are weddings supposed to work?"

"I'm not sure. I haven't ever been to a wedding, maybe my mom knows?" He takes his phone out, sending a text to his mother. "Hey, mom? How are weddings supposed to work?"

"Why are you asking me about weddings?" she responds, "Wait, did Alice accept your proposal?"

"Yeah, there were some things that she was afraid to tell me...that's why she said no. Now that I know everything, we're going to get married."

"Well typically a wedding planner would be hired...but you and Alice can also plan everything yourselves if that's what you want."

"What all would be needed for a wedding?"

"That depends on how big the wedding is. How big of a wedding are you guys planning?"

"Um...probably not that big."

"You would need a venue, and a menu if you're planning on having a reception. There's also the choice of what wedding cake to get."

"Alright, I'll mention everything to Alice to see what she thinks." He puts his phone down on the bedside table. ""Alice, where would you want our wedding to take place?"
