Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 882 - Waited Long Enough

The night grew darker as Yue Ling lay in bed after showering and changing into her sleepwear. She stares up at the ceiling, faintly lit by the moon.

”I canʼt sleep….”

She had wanted to call Lu Tian and ask where he was but didnʼt want to be a bother to him. She also didnʼt want to invade his space since he was on business.

Her eyes flutter not too slow nor too fast before turning to her side. She stares at the empty spot where Lu Tian usually sleeps, and her heart tightens.

She never felt this way when he was with Lee Shin in the past, even after he passed away.

She did miss him, and she even thought she was going crazy because she often saw images of him. However, as the days passed, she came to realize that it was out of comfort for the ten years theyʼd been together.

But with Lu Tian, she felt different.

It was the kind of feeling that made her feel like the world didnʼt matter if he wasnʼt a part of it.

Her eyes slowly blinked as her thoughts deepened, and before she realized it, she was falling asleep with Lu Tian in her mind.

As sleep began to consume her mind, the sound of light footsteps awoke her back to reality.

The footsteps were very light, and one wouldnʼt have been able to hear them. However, it was not for her.

She turns to the other side to face the door left ajar and opens her eyes with a calm expression. She quickly adjusted to the darkness inside the room and focused her hearing on the footsteps.

It couldnʼt be her subordinates because they had already left home, and if they were to come back, they would have called her.

Could it be Lu Tian?

But if it was him, why would he take light steps in their home and not turn on the lights?

As the steps grew closer to the door, she pulled the blanket away as quietly as she could before getting up. Her right-hand moves over the side table and slides to the space near the wall. She retrieves a small knife hidden behind the table in case of an emergency.

Her eyes fixated on the door with ears focused on the footsteps. However, alertness could be seen across her face.

She quietly tiptoes to the door and awaits whoever has come inside her house.

However, the second she was three feet away from the door, it was slowly pushed open.

She caught sight of a tall, dark figure, and a glint of light flashed in her bluish-green eyes. She wastes no time and jumps into action.

Her arm raises to strike the intruder, but the person swiftly grabs hold of her wrist. She could sense that her opponent wouldnʼt be easy to knock out and decided to knee the person in the stomach.

However, it was another failed attempt.

The person held firmly onto her thigh, and before she could react, a familiar and deep chuckle entered her ears.

”Well, this is a pleasant welcome.”

Yue Lingʼs eyes widen at the voice, and a gasp escapes her mouth.

”Tian?”

Lu Tian couldnʼt help but chuckle again. He leans forward and kisses his wife on the lips.

”Itʼs me.”

He lets go of her leg but keeps a hold on her wrist. He takes the knife from her grasp and walks her to the bed.

”This feels like deja-vu all over again.”

He was reminded of when he almost met his end at her hands when they were at Jade Condos. He chuckled at the thought and sat her down on the bed as he put the knife back behind the side table.

”Did something happen while I was away? Why are you so alert?”

From the way she lunged at him, it looked like trouble had come to find her while he was away. However, if thatʼs the case, why didnʼt his subordinates report this to him?

Yue Ling was uttered speechless. All she could do was stare at the person in front of her and watch his movements.

After a long moment, she broke out from her daze and grabbed hold of his hands.

”Why didnʼt you make any sound or turn on the lights? I thought you were an intruder. I could have hurt you or even killed you!”

Lu Tian could hear the panic in her voice as she scolded him, but a smile curls on his lip. He was happy that she was worried about him.

He takes a seat next to her and gently squeezes her hands. Even if he couldnʼt see her expression due to the darkness, he could imagine it.

”Iʼm sorry. I didnʼt mean to scare you. I saw that the lights were out, so I expected you must have gone to sleep.”

When he entered the house, he thought about turning the lights on. However, considering the fact that his wife was asleep, he decided not to and just headed up to the bedroom in the dark.

Of course, this thought of his proved him wrong.

His wife has better hearing than he thought.

Even in the darkness of the room, he could vaguely see her beautiful face that was on his mind all day. His hand raised, and he held the side of her face with his palm.

”I know I broke my promise, but Iʼm home.”

His deep voice fills the room, and he leans towards her. He captures her by the lips and sighs inside. The touch of her warmth sends a calming sensation inside him.

He pulls away and presses his forehead against her forehead.

”I missed you all day.”

Yue Ling didnʼt know what to think. She wanted to scold him some more for almost getting hurt by her, yet, at the same time, she felt relieved that he was safe and home.

The longer she stared at the man, whose face was at a close distance to her, she felt relief take control.

She moves one hand from his grasp and gently touches caresses his cheek with a smile.

”Welcome home, Tian.”

Lu Tian smiles at her touch. He takes hold of the hand on his face and brings it to his lip. He places a gentle kiss on the tip of her fingers before pulling her in for a deep and passionate kiss.

As all thoughts disappeared from Yue Lingʼs mind, heat rushed into her head. She wraps her arms around his neck, and she unknowingly falls onto the bed, pulling him along with her.

His strong and gentle hands began to stroke her body like he was painting her traces into his mind.

”Tian… wait…”

Yue Ling gasps between the kiss and tries to stop him. She wanted what was to come just as much as him, but he just got home. He must be tired from working all day and need to rest.

”I canʼt.”

Lu Tian growls in a low voice knowing why she wanted him to stop. However, he has no intentions of stopping.

”Iʼve waited long enough.”

The moment she was in his arms, he knew he wanted her. Even if they had guests in the house, he doesnʼt care.

He kissed her deeply, and one by one, he removed her clothes as he did his own. Once he had removed the last remaining fabric on her, he positioned himself between her legs with eyes gazing with passion.

”So beautiful…”

She was so beautiful under the moonlight. Every part of her is well engraved in his heart, and no matter how many times he saw her, he would always want her.

Yue Ling blushed at his words and intense gaze. She didnʼt know if she should stop him or let him continue.

However, while contemplating what to do, Lu Tian lowered himself over her.

He made sure to steady his weight not to crush her, and he covered one of her breasts with his hand while his mouth worked its magic on the other.

”Mm~…”

Yue Ling gasps at the sweet, tingling feeling he gives her. Her back slightly arched, giving him a better advantage. She could feel his hardness rub against her, making her moist between the thighs. However, she was a little disappointed that it hadnʼt gone in yet.

”Tian.”

She moans his name and places her hands on his shoulders before moving to his head. She forced him to look at her, and when their eyes met, she could feel the desire in him.

”Please…”

She bashfully begged him with a flustered face, and he knew what she wanted. He raises himself from her two mounds, and his face leans inches away from her.

”Please, what?”

He teased her with a question, wanting to hear her say she wanted him too.

Yue Ling felt shy as saying such shameless words was something she had never done before, but she did what he wanted.

”I want you….”

The second her words entered his ears, Lu Tian knew he had reached his limit. He captures her lips again and spreads her legs a little more to position himself better.

He pulls away from her mouth but only to whisper near her ear.

”I want you too, my wife.”

His lower body press against her, and he enters inside her with the help of her sweet moistness.

She cried a moaning gasp when she felt him enter her. He wants to move but waits for her to adjust to his size. Once he was sure it was safe to move, he did.

With his hips, he pulled her along to the edge of a nightʼs sensation. He was rough and gentle, all mixed in pleasure. Her silken heat drove him to the brink, with his mind filled with nothing but her.

Yue Ling was ashamed to admit it, but she felt like she was on cloud nine. Like him, her mind was focused on him and him only. It was as if no one else existed in the world but them.

She wraps her legs around his waist. Her gesture ignited him more, letting him know how much she meant it when she said she wanted him.

As their lovemaking continued into the night, the moon hanging outside blushed with shame. It notices the grey clouds slowly floating in from a distance and doesnʼt hesitate to pull them forward.

It hides behind the grey clouds to block its eyes from witnessing the love between a man and a woman.
