The night was thickening as Rena and Waylen ascended the stairs together, their steps slow and deliberate.
Once inside the master bedroom, Waylen closed the door behind them, and his arms enveloped Rena in a warm embrace.
Her face gently bumped against his shoulder, and she took in the scent of tobacco lingering on his clothes.
Rena knew what he desired.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe, too, couldn’t deny missing the familiarity of that scent.
However, she knew that now was not the right time. Her emotions weren’t in the right place, so she asked in a soft voice, “What do you want to say to me?”
Waylen gazed down at her, finding her demeanor quite gentle in that moment.
He began to explain, “She’s just a young girl. | can’t have a crush on her. Please don’t be angry with me, Rena.”
Rena leaned against his shoulder, her voice equally soft. “But she cares about you.”
She didn’t want to argue with him. Instead, Rena wanted him to figure things out on his own and make a decision that would satisfy them both.
Waylen wasn’t foolish; he should understand what she meant.
After a thoughtful pause, he gently stroked her face and reassured her, “She’s just an irrelevant person to our family. Rena, you should know who! truly love. We can move back to the villa. What do you think?”
Waylen said gently and patiently.
But Rena couldn’t find comfort in his explanation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDespite the heating being on in the bedroom, her body felt colder and colder.
Disappointment weighed heavily on her heart.
Exhausted, she replied, “Waylen, you still don’t understand!”
Pushing him away gently, she walked towards the door. Her hand grasped the doorknob, and in a somewhat distant tone, she uttered, “I’ll sleep with the children. Good night!”
Waylen tried to stop her, calling out, “Rena!”
With her gaze lowered, she opened the door and disappeared into the corridor.
Standing in the living room for a while, Waylen eventually sat down on the sofa. He had a pile of business matters to attend to, but his mind couldn’t focus. All he wanted was to carry Rena to their bed.
Perhaps this was the weakness of men, he thought.
