She slid her arms up his shoulders and brought her mouth to his. He welcomed her kiss, which was slow and deep. Hot excitement poured into her blood. Soon the kiss was no longer slow, but hungry, needy.
Gift felt Jason’s chest lift with a shuddering intake of breath.
“I want to make love,” she said against his lips.







Jason went still. His hand, which was sliding up her thigh, stopped at her hip.
“You’re sure?”
It was the first time she’d ever made the request, the first time she’d ever initiated their lovemaking.
“Yes.”
Lightning briefly brightened the room, shadows frolicked and danced against the walls, followed by the roar of thunder. The bedroom vibrated with sound.
Jason, ever-sensitive to her moods, paused, but she refused to allow any hesitation. She drew his mouth down to hers and they kissed, until Gift whole body seemed to throb with excitement.




Gently Jason removed her nightgown, pulling it over her head. He’d awakened her to an entire world of sensual pleasure in the months since their marriage, a world she wanted to explore now.
He hungrily covered her mouth with his own and her head spun, her nails digging into his back. Abruptly she broke off the kiss, her shoulders heaving. “Jason, please…I want you.”
He didn’t need any further encouragement….
“Okay, so far?” he asked sometime later.





“Oh, yes,” she whispered, smiling her assurance. The pleasure was so keen it was almost beyond bearing.
Lightning flashed and thunder rolled, punctuating their lovemaking. “Jason…oh, Jase,” she cried out, her voice a trembling wail of pleasure as her senses caught fire, exploding into a mindless madness. Her body shuddered as she gave herself to the storm, to her husband, to the night.
Afterward, when he, too, had reached completion, they were both panting. Jason gathered her in his arms, and they were silent, words between them unnecessary.




Eventually their breathing steadied.
“I still have trouble believing how good this is,” Gift whispered. “Making love, I mean.”
Jason kissed the crown of her head. “It always has been.”
“Not in the beginning.”
“It was,” he said. “Because you let me try to prove how much I love you.”






Gift was quiet for a moment as she absorbed his words. Their first attempts at making love, on their honeymoon, had left her frustrated and in tears. She was convinced Jason had made a terrible mistake in marrying her. He wouldn’t allow her to criticize herself, though. His patience astonished her and gave her the courage to keep trying.
She’d struggled with her inadequacies, silently condemning herself, but on the seventh night of their stay, they’d broken through the restraints and made beautiful, intoxicating love. Gift had wanted everything to be magically different from then on, but that would have been unrealistic. Her fears were unpredictable and continued to be for weeks. But now, four months after their wedding, loving Jason was the most incredible experience of her life.
Tears slipped down Gift cheeks as she recalled the first weeks of their marriage—his gentleness, his unwillingness to give up, his love.
“You’re crying,” he whispered, his lips against her hair.
“You’re not supposed to notice.”
“But I have. Are you going to tell me why?”
Emotion clogged her throat as she struggled to hold back the tears. “In a minute.”






Jason’s brow creased with a thoughtful frown. “Is it something that came from your meeting with Bill?”
Bill was her counselor; she saw him twice a week. She shook her head. “You promise you won’t laugh?”
“I’ll try.”
“I’m crying because I’m so happy.”
“Happy,” Jason repeated slowly. “But if you cry when you’re happy, what do you do when you’re sad?”
“Cry,” she returned with irrefutable logic. “Now aren’t you going to ask me why I’m so happy?”
“I don’t need to. It’s obvious.”
“It is?”
“Of course. You’re married to me.”
Gift laughed at his mock arrogance. “Carrie cried, too.”
“Carrie’s that happy?”
“It’s the reason she’s spending the night with a friend. I wanted the evening alone with you.”
Jason snickered. “If that’s the case, why’d you go to bed at six-thirty?”
“I didn’t plan that,” she murmured, “but I think it’s going to be pretty much the norm for the next few months. I couldn’t seem to get enough sleep when I was pregnant with Carrie, either.”





“Cute, Gift, very cute. You couldn’t possibly be—” He stopped cold, his eyes widening.
“It’s true,” she said, pressing her head to his chest. She smiled as the erratic beat of his heart sounded in her ear.
“How far…?”
“A month.”
He shook his head as though in a trance.





“It was inevitable, you know,” she told him, happiness spilling from her heart. “How could I not be pregnant? We’ve been making love for months. And we decided not to use birth control for this very reason.”
“Yes, but…”
“When the lovemaking’s this good, doesn’t it make sense that the result will be equally beautiful?”
Jason kissed her again, his mouth worshipping hers. “I love you so much.”





Gift sighed and closed her eyes, utterly content. She’d conquered her fears, begun to heal her pain. She’d survived the memories and triumphed over her past.
The future stretched before her, filled with bright promise. She wasn’t going to miss a single moment.

Hello am done typing this and I rest my hands


Actually am saying again and again that this piece belongs to Debbie Macomber one of my favorite Author.

Thanks man


No need to exchange words.

You can call the on authorities now.

Beautiful story.
I noticed the name change, but I chose to be quiet till I get to a logical conclusion on that. Yes, you should have included the author's name at the beginning in case some of her ardent fans stumble upon it, but then, you did good by pointing it out later on that the work is not yours.
That said, no need beating her over it. When correcting someone, our tone should not be so harsh as if we had a previous issue with the person. Social media should not be an avenue to lash out anyhow, however bad we feel someone may have behaved. Correct in love and Connect for future friendship.


Peace.
