FORBIDDEN AFFECTIONS: ADDICTED TO MY STEPMOM

Everything in the world changes.

No matter how much you love something and want it to stay, a day will come when it will disappear and you will lose it. Sometimes it is changed, sometimes it is forgotten, but often, it leaves you forever. Like it has to.

But in the midst of a very vague world full of changes and endings, there is only one thing I can be sure of, something that always remained.

That is a real, passionate, complete love.

A love that no matter what one, two, or many people do―will never be destroyed.

Because even if you lose this person, even if everything changes for you, you will still love him. Your heart will still beat for him, call him as your heart has always done before, every single day.

Even if it’s just secretly, even if it’s just from the distance, whether you like it or not, if your love is true, your heart will continue to beat for that person. You won’t be able to stop it even for a second.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

In my entire life, I never thought I would love a man so much and love me back. As they say, love comes when you least expect it.

I’m happy because I’m finally close to feeling like we’re really meant for each other. That no matter what others say, it is us and us still in the end.

I also don’t understand it sometimes. What did I do to be this lucky with the person? How can I love someone and have him love me back equally, if not more? Most of the time, it feels scary. It’s like I’ll lose it in an instant at any time. And I know myself I will never be ready for that day to happen…

“What are you thinking about so deeply?” I felt the arms that were so familiar to me suddenly and slowly wrapped around my waist.

I sighed and turned around, facing the man who hugged me from behind. “Nothing. It’s just that… Lately, I’ve been thinking about how lucky I am to have you. You, Amy, and Sunny. You three make me the happiest woman alive.”

Jack smiled and caressed my face. “You’re getting sentimental again.” His lips touched my right shoulder, giving it a soft kiss. “Hmm. Is it because we’re getting married tomorrow that you’re thinking so much?”

“No,” I said shaking my head with a smile.

“Look, ma,” Jack called and held my hands, eyes looking straight at me. “Whatever you have now, no matter how happy you are now, it’s all because you’re a very good person. You deserve it. You deserve all the happiness in the world.”

It seemed that he was not satisfied because he pulled me suddenly and kissed me hard on the lips. “And you make me the happiest man alive. I hope you know that too.”

I smiled and looked at him back then kissed him firmly, carrying my overflowing love for him.

I know that very well. Everything Jack said―I know and feel it exactly as he meant it.

Because of all the challenges that we went through, I already know how Jack loves and how it can evolve and reach to some extent.

Soon, the simple kiss became more intense and full. Jack breathlessly kissed me towards our room. The balcony was too cold for what we were going to do next.

Jack never removed his lips from mine. With every kiss and caress, I feel his love and affection for me. Soon, we reached the bed. He slowly pushed me down, his hands never leaving my body.

“Aahh, Aki…” I called him when he started kissing me and biting my neck. We already did it countless times but he still doesn’t seem to lose his energy. It only seemed to get stronger and wilder each second that passed.

Jack stopped slightly and looked at me. The room was quite dark and only the lights that came from outside this room served as our light. A room at a resort where we will tie the knot tomorrow.

But even though it’s dark, I can still feel and see the smile on his lips.

“You’re beautiful, mom,” Jack said while caressing my face. My knees almost went weak when he spoke with his full and deep voice. “I can’t wait to be your husband.”

I can’t stop smiling. Even I am excited about our wedding. It will be held tomorrow with a few guests like Jonah and other neighbors who have become friends with us in the past years.

We waited for this time. We have been through many storms to get to this point. So it cannot be denied that we are both very excited about what will happen.

Jack kissed me on the lips and pulled me into a tight hug. He nervously buried his head in my neck and started to kiss me on my most sensitive spots.

“I want to make a baby again,” he whispered between soft and hot kisses.

A soft giggle came out of my lips from Jack’s tickling sensation. “Hmm, it’s not possible yet… Sunny is still young…”

Even Jack laughed a little and started kissing my neck more. “Hmm, why not? Amy was around that age when we made Sunny.”

“Aki!”

“Fine. Family planning. I understand, let’s follow what the doctor said,” Jack said mischievously, making me shake my head.

He sighed and looked at me.

I looked back at him and caressed his face. “I love you so much,” I said softly before kissing him on the lips.

Jack’s eyes became serious. They were clearly written with overwhelming emotions ― emotions that I now remember and understand well.

Jack caressed my cheek and spoke deeply but softly, “I love you so much more. If only you knew how much I love you…”

He brought his face closer to mine and slowly touched his lips. He pulled me back into his arms.

I hugged him back with a contented sigh. “Hmm… I know… I know…” I smiled and said that I was slowly closing my eyes and seemed to be overcome by tiredness and sleepiness.

We also accomplished a lot today that made us slightly tired. But that was perfectly okay because we knew what it was for and how much we liked it.

Together, Jack and I were heading in that one direction. And that was enough reason for us to give our best to make it happen.

The arms hugging me got tighter. I can feel the warmth of Jack’s love.

“I love you so much, Ma… So much…” He said softly while caressing my arm.

I closed my eyes smiling and slowly fell asleep.

From the words he spoke to me over and over again, I knew I was in the right person, at the right time, and most of all, in the right love.

But that’s just what I thought.

Because the next day, the thing I feared the most happened and it shattered my world.

My peaceful life, my happy family, and my most treasured love―

All of it was destroyed in a blink of an eye, leaving me by myself as I could only watch it explode and disappear like a bubble…
