Getting spoiled in a woman dominating world

”I am ashamed at myself for feeling happy... when he confessed to me.”

Eh? Ravene blinked her eyes, a bit perplexed ”Elize?”

Elize raised her gaze and looked at her ”He is my Kael... how can I not love him? I really do love him a-and I am pleased that he sees me in that way.”

”Maybe, it was my fault for giving him hope...”

Her voice trailed off, her gaze dropping to the floor as shame washed over her.

She thought of the moments of first kissing him and lying naked with him.

”But, Rave... this is complicated.”

Ravene let out a deep breath and replied ”It is not as complicated as you think. Now tell me, do you love him or not...”

Hearing this, Elize’s gaze quivered ”That’s...”

Ravene noticed the hesitaion in her eyes and leaned closer ”Elize, don’t think about what I’ll think, or what’s ’weird,’ or what anyone else would say. Just tell me the truth.”

With a faint nod, she replied ”I am... not very sure, b-but I am not displeased with the idea.”

Ravene’s heart sank, a mix of empathy and pain twisting in her chest.

She had known Brandon’s feelings for Elize, but hearing Elize admit to reciprocating, even partially, is a blow she wasn’t prepared for.

”Elize...” Ravene’s voice softened as she reached out, her hand gently covering Elize’s trembling fingers.

”It’s okay to feel that way. It doesn’t make you a bad person. You love him. He’s been your world for so long... how could you not feel something when he says he loves you like that?”

A deep sigh escaped Elize’s lips ”But it’s wrong, Rave,”

”I’m his aunt. I promised Marzella I’d take care of him, protect him, not... not let this happen.”

Ravene showed a faint smile ”Love is not something you can control.. It’s okay, Elize.”

Elize looked at her and replied ”But what do I do with that?”

”I rejected him, Rave. I told him it could never happen. But now... I don’t know if I meant it. I don’t know if I can face him without wondering what could have been, or if I can keep pretending I don’t feel anything.”

”I’m so ashamed, Rave. I’m ashamed of loving him, of wanting him to look at me that way.”

Ravene realized what is happening...

Elize loves Brandon, which she herself is not fully aware of, but the responsibility she has for Brandon, other people’s views on her and her promise to Marzella are holding her back, making her emotions turmoil and she is confused.

She needs some rest.

Ravene looked at her ”Elize, look at me. You’re not alone in this. What you’re feeling... it’s messy, but it’s not wrong to feel it.”

”You love Kael, and that love has always been there, in every moment you’ve cared for him, protected him. Maybe it’s grown into something you didn’t expect... but one thing is true: you love him.”

”You’ve given Kael everything... a home, a family, love. Just think about them... Take a rest and rethink it clearly.”

Elize slowly nodded her head and spoke ”...Don’t tell anything to Kael about our talk just now.”

Ravene gave a nod ”Hmm... you go and sleep. Good night.”

”Night.”

Reaching Brandon’s room, she opened the door and stepped in.

Brandon lay on the bed, his hands behind his head as he stared at the ceiling.

Ravene’s heart ached at the sight of him and she closed the door behind her.

Without a word, she crossed the room and paused at the edge of the bed, her eyes gazing at his face.

She reached for the hem of her t-shirt, as she pulled it over her head.

Unhooking the bra, she let it fall to the floor as the cool air kissed her skin.

She climbed onto the bed, the mattress dipping under her weight, and settled beside him.

Brandon’s gaze flickered, his eyes shifting from the ceiling to her.

Ravene reached out as she pulled him toward her, guiding him into her embrace.

His head rested against her chest, his face nestled against the soft curve of her breasts, and she felt the warmth of his breath against her skin.

She pressed a soft kiss to his forehead, her lips lingering as she wrapped her arms around him, holding him tightly.

His arm encircled her waist, pulling her closer as he buried his face into her breasts.

The sheets rustled softly as they shifted, their legs curling together beneath the fabric.

Sleep came slowly and Ravene’s eyes fluttered closed, her arms still wrapped around Brandon, his face nestled against her chest.

Brandon lay on his side, his dark hair tousled against the pillow.

Ravene, awake in the early morning, watched him with a tender smile, her heart swelling with a mix of affection and protectiveness.

She shifted slightly and propped herself up on one elbow, her dark hair falling in loose waves over her shoulder, and gently adjusted her position, her hand cupping the soft curve of her breast.

Her nipple, stiffened by the cool morning air grazed against Brandon’s nose in a teasing touch that made her lips curve into a mischievous smile.

Brandon stirred and his eyebrows quivered as the sensation pulled him from the edges of sleep.

Ravene’s nipple brushed against his lips, teasing, pressing just enough to elicit a soft, instinctive response.

She chuckled softly, ”Wake up, sleepy,”

Brandon’s eyes fluttered open, his gaze meeting hers in a moment of quiet confusion.

He blinked, a slow smile tugging at the corners of his mouth and without a word, he parted his lips, drawing her nipple into his mouth.

Ravene’s chuckle turned into a soft gasp, her fingers threading through his hair as she arched slightly, encouraging him.

”There you are,”

Brandon’s hand tightened on her waist, pulling her closer as he continued sucking on her nipple.

Ravene smiled, her fingers still tangled in his hair, her heart swelling with love for the man in her arms.

”Good morning,” she murmured in a soft voice, her lips brushing against his forehead in a gentle kiss.

”Morning,” Brandon replied, a faint smile in his tone as he nestled closer, his arm tightening around her waist.

He didn’t mention the night before or bring up Elize, and Ravene didn’t push.

Stepping out of the room, Brandon stretched his arms and at this time, Eira also came out of her room.

Looking at Brandon, her eyes crescented in worry and hurriedly rushed forward ”Brandon, are you alright?”

She wrapped her arms around him and mumbled ”Sister Ravene said that you are tired and wanted to sleep alone. Is everything alright?”

Looking at the worry in her face, Brandon’s heart melted with happiness.

He leaned down and kissed her lips ”Yes, I am alright...”

Hearing this, a smile bloomed on her face and she nodded her head ”That’s good to hear...”

Her hands tightened around his neck as she pressed her body closer ”I was about to go bathe... so I was wondering if my boyfriend is free to accompany me in the bath.”

Looking into her eyes, he nodded his head ”Sure...”
