Love Does Cost A Thing

Book two: Chapter eighteen

I'll advise you to grab a box of tissue, this chapter is rather sorrowful for those who love Lui and Zuri so much.😔💔

Lui's POV

I found myself grinning like a Cheshire Cat after waking up from bed minutes ago. Shifting my body to the other side, I looked over at my baby, my grin widens seeing her sleeping so peacefully and I'm tempted to kiss those luscious lips that's been working magic on me.

All has been peaceful and bliss in our little paradise for some days now, the little drama at the office has been completely forgotten which is quite relieving and I'm very ecstatic my baby has come around.

Yeah after that incident at the office, she started opening up. Zuri stopped being distant and cold towards me and the most surprising thing of all is she initiated intimacy at every given chance. I'll be at the office and she will come sit in my lap and start peppering me with kisses, the same at home and everywhere we find ourselves. Not that I'm complaining, I do love this new Zuri though I love the shy and innocent woman I fell for.

In all I'm glad everything is fine between us and just the previous night, I pleasured her down there till she kept moaning my name over and over again which were music to my ears. Thankfully it was orally, I wouldn't know what I would have done if it involves popping her cherry, it took all in me not to do so, I'm waiting for the perfect day, that day being our wedding. It's rather unfortunate, it has been postponed after the accident at the awards ceremony, we were supposed to celebrate Val's day exchanging our wedding vows but we celebrated with me being in a coma.

I'm yet to find whoever did that but till then, I need to get my ass out of this bed.

I removed the sheets off me and covered Zuri's body with it then lifted my tired body off the bed into the bathroom. I handled my oral hygiene and after some minutes, I was done. I hopped into the shower, taking my bath.

After I was done, I came back into the room while drying my wet hair with a towel, I found my baby still asleep. The sheets I draped around her were now halfway down her body and her position has changed too, she now had her arms and legs sticking out of the sheets and dangling off the bed.

A smile creeps on my lips, I can just stand her and stare at her all day, she's looking so peaceful and cute, her mouth puckered before I heard her mumbling somethings in her sleep. I take it as she's still in the moment, like what happened between us last night.

Walking into the closet, I comb through the racks and pulled out plain t-shirt and boxer briefs. I put them on, returning to the room and positioned my baby well on the bed lest she falls off it, she's now at the edge of the bed.

I then left the room and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. I know Zuri is certainly going to be hungry by the time she wakes up from her beauty sleep, for some odd reason, she's always hungry lately and eats extra and I don't want her starve before we go over to hers.

Someone gave Father this idea of going over to Zuri's and meet her family and he actually took it so it's settled. I'm sure they're there like now, we will also go right after my baby wakes up then gets ready and that will be after eating so I gotta get to it.

I went over to the fridge, taking out eggs and other groceries to prepare us a nice breakfast of omelets and lots of sausage, sausage isn't my favorite but since it's been my baby's lately, I might as well have include it to make her happy, she's happy when I'm happy you know.

After ten minutes, the food was ready to be dishes out. As I was on it, Zuri entered the kitchen spotting a wide smile on her face.

I returned her smile, taking in her appearance, I realized she was in my shirt that reached just below her ass, I licked my lips as my smile grew wider. I loved my shirt on her and dirty thoughts weren't helping me either, after what we did last night, I'm not sure I'll be able to keep my hands off her if she keeps being around me dressed like this.
