A gentle breeze fluttered the thin curtains of the bedroom's window, showing glimpses of the silhouette of the couple entwined within.
Sheena's cheeks were flushed with a soft pink as she tried to steady her breathing.
Ten days of longing, worry, and yearning had all melted away under Elliot's touch.
With her eyes half-opened, Sheena traced the outline of Elliot's Adam's apple, still showing faint marks from where she had bitten him that morning.
Her heart swelled with contentment, the intensity of their love overwhelming her.
A love that they would fear to lose now that they had a taste of it.
Whether through amnesia, injury, or even death…
It was a burden too heavy to bear.
"Nana, what are you thinking about? Focus," Elliot chided softly, capturing her wrist and pinning it above her head as he kissed her again.
By mid-afternoon, the sun was shining brightly outside, but Sheena felt as if she were in a daze, lost in their passion.
Her back ached, and she did not want to move an inch.
Elliot carried her to the bathroom…
She felt like she might just collapse from exhaustion.
Sheena regretted it.
The intensity of their lovemaking had left her utterly drained.
Once they were cleaned up, Elliot dutifully helped her dress up, slipping a soft white dress over her and carefully buttoning a light coat.
"If you still feel too tired, you should rest at home. You can go to the lab tomorrow," he suggested.
Besides, Yosef would take good care of their two little ones. Sheena's well-being was Elliot's top priority, after all.
"I'm fine. I can sleep a bit at the lab later. It's the same."
Elliot understood her stubbornness.
