Chapter Thirty

Love

Robin unlocked the door to the hotel room with the keycard. He pushed open the door and stepped back to allow Sah'Reena to enter first. However she remained in the hallway, looking inside, and required a small push from him to go in.

"This is our room for the night. You have to go in," he smiled.

"This is ours?" She stared at the room arrangement, noting the king-sized bed, the draperies and carpeting, the wardrobe and table, and the presence of a full bath. Giving him an odd look, she asked, "Why are we here? Is this where we will be safe?"

Robin paused briefly, dropping their overnight bag next to the closet, then remembered to shut and bar the door behind them. He walked over to the windows and opened the drapes, only to be met with a cold, dreary night. The ice storm had arrived. Already a thin sheet of frozen sleet rimmed the windowsill and coated the other side of the glass panes.

"We should be in Hawaii or the Bahamas, somewhere other than here where it's too cold to enjoy a walk outside. You belong in the sunlight. You glow in the sunlight. You deserve so much better than this."

In the reflection in the glass he could see her walk up behind him and lay her cheek on his shoulder. "Why are we here?" she repeated. "Is this where we will stay to be safe?"

"It's our honeymoon," he told her, knowing full well she would not understand. He chuckled to see her confused look. Turning around, he placed an arm about her waist and led her over to the bed where they sat down simultaneously.

"After a couple marries, like we just did, they go on a honeymoon. It's a time for them to be alone, to talk, and get the chance to discover one another in private." He hesitated. He had never deceived her or tried to be less than truthful, and he would not start now. "It's also the time when the man and woman discover each other sexually."

Sah'Reena's eyes widened. "I ... think I understand a little more."

"Sree …." He looked down at where her hands were resting on her thighs. He lifted one hand to his lips and kissed the back of her fingers. "This is going to be difficult to explain."

"We are together. We can talk, we can learn from each other, we can learn more about each other. You are my friend. Now you are my ... husband. Why can you not talk to me now? Why are you holding back?"

Robin looked up at her. He was surprised by her astuteness, but maybe it was just another part of their growing together. "Look, Sree, there's a small problem we have …."

"Do you want to have me?" she interrupted softly, leaning closer to him. Her unique scent was intoxicating. And it was more than evident she was completely open to him.

"Do I ... God, Sah'Reena, how can I explain this so you'll understand? Do I want you sexually? In the worst way.
