Chapter 29: Sex in a Cabin(Bonus Smut - )(filler Chapter)
The room was quiet except for the soft hum of rain tapping against the windows. A faint amber glow from the fireplace danced along the walls, casting warm shadows over Rebecca's bare shoulders. She stood by the window, her breath fogging the glass as she looked out into the dark. Edward approached her slowly, his footsteps muffled by the thick rug beneath them.
"Cold?" he asked, his voice low, laced with something unspoken.
She turned slightly, her eyes catching his. "Only when you're not near."
He closed the space between them, his hands resting gently on her waist. For a moment, neither spoke. The silence was full—charged with memory, with yearning, with everything they hadn't said and didn't need to. His fingers moved to brush a loose strand of hair behind her ear, lingering as he traced the line of her jaw.
Rebecca leaned into his touch, her breath catching. "You always look at me like I'm something fragile," she whispered.
"Not fragile," Edward murmured, leaning closer, "Just... precious."
His lips met hers—softly at first, then deeper, more certain. Her hands slid around his neck, pulling him closer as the world outside disappeared. The air between them grew warmer, slower, charged with quiet urgency. Clothes slipped away without haste, replaced by the comfort of skin against skin, heartbeats aligning in a quiet rhythm.
They moved together in silence—eyes locked, breaths shared—as though time had folded in on itself, leaving only them and the firelight and the rain.
Edward held her as though he feared the moment might dissolve if he let go. His hands traced the lines of her back, memorizing her, not just through touch but through reverence. Rebecca's fingers tightened gently against his shoulders, grounding herself in the weight of him, in the steadiness of his presence.
Their breaths were no longer ragged but slow, syncing as though their bodies had settled into something deeper—something quieter than desire, but no less intense. She rested her forehead against his, her eyes closed.
"I missed this," she murmured.
