Sweet Fire

23

Taking one last look at her reflection in the mirror, Samira felt satisfied about her look.

The red figure hugging, lace maxi dress was doing wonders to her curves, much to her surprise. She could have sworn that dress did not fit her well a few weeks ago. It had always been a size too big for her. However today, she put it on and it looked amazing. Perhaps, did she gain weight? She wondered, while looking down at her breasts, which looked like they have gotten bigger. Her curves were protruding out as well.

Must be because of all the happiness she was experiencing lately. She blushed at the thought.

The door suddenly burst open and Tamera strode in, exclaiming. “Wow! Has that always looked this good on you?” She gushed over Samira's dress.

“The answer may surprise you.”  Samira smiled.

“Damn, girl. Eros’s eyes are going to pop out of their sockets when he sees you tonight.” Tamera said, while continuing to admire the dress. “By the way, what time is he arriving? Mum is almost done getting ready.”

“He should be here any moment from now.” At the words, they heard a car enter the compound.

Samira moved to the window and parted the curtains. Indeed, it was Eros’s Maserati, parking in the space. She watched him turn off the engine and then alight from the car. Her heart skipped a beat at the sight of him. Damn, Eros was just too damn good looking. He was so beautiful he would give most models a run for their money. His hair was styled backwards, revealing a thin jawline and high cheekbones. His tuxedo fitted him perfectly and outlined his brawny physique. Samira stared longingly at him, wondering what she has done to deserve a man like him.

The clearing of a throat, broke the spell she had fallen into and she spun away from the window. Tamera gazed at her sister long and hard, until Samira asked. “What?”

“You love him so much don’t you?” Tamera questioned.

Samira’s smile widened and she replied. “You have no idea how much.”

“So will you two get married someday? I mean will you say yes if he asks?”

“Without even a second thought.” Samira replied.

The sisters went to get their mother from the master bedroom and together, they moved downstairs. Eros was sitting in the living room when they entered. He quickly rose to greet them, before taking Samira’s hand and placing a kiss on it.
“You are looking rather ravishing tonight.” He whispered to her and she blushed.

“Alright, let’s go. I am sure they are waiting for us.” Barbara said, while making her way out of the living room. Tamera followed her mother, leaving Samira and Eros behind. As soon as their footsteps faded, Eros pulled Samira in for a toe-curling kiss, which left her breathless. When he finally released her lips, he gazed into her eyes and whispered.

“I am sorry for what happened at my place, this morning.”

“No. I am sorry for leaving. I was...”

“It doesn’t matter.” He smacked her mouth with another kiss. Parting her lips with his tongue, he plunged into her sweet interior. With one hand at her nape and the other, around her waist, he drew her so close to him they were almost one. They were so close they could feel each other’s hearts beating against their chest. At that moment, they forgot about everything, as they were lost in the bliss of their kiss.

“Eros,” Samira called into the kiss, suddenly recalling that her mother and sister were probably waiting for them. Eros pulled away for a second to ask, “What?” and then went back to kissing her. Samira would have loved that they continue like this, but right now was not the time. With all the strength she could muster, she pulled away and gasped.
