They finally arrived at the hotel, their hearts heavy with the weight of their past.

Waylen escorted her to her room, and a tinge of shame crept over them. They hadn't been a couple for a long time, and now they found themselves in this intimate situation once more.

As Rena tapped her room key card, she was suddenly held from behind.

Waylen’s touch on her waist sent a shiver down her spine. He leaned against her back, his voice soft and warm as he said, "Still working out lately? Your waist is slender."

Deep down, Rena knew what he desired.

But it was too fast, too sudden. She didn't want to be intimate with him only to find out later that he still remembered nothing about her and their past together.

She couldn't hold back and blurted as she grabbed his hand, “Didn't you say we would take our time?"

Waylen nodded understandingly, his gaze filled with affection.

Waylen's hand brushed against her diamond ring as he declared, "We're going to hold a grand wedding this time.”

Rena fell silent, her mind filled with questions.

They had been through so much, and now with two children, the idea of a grand wedding felt both thrilling and daunting. She actually didn't care about a ceremony, for it was always him that she truly wanted... The question was, did her Waylen really come back?

Gently, she turned around in his arms and said, "When we go back, I'll accompany you to see a doctor."

Waylen's smile faded slightly.

But after a moment, he softly touched her waist and agreed, "Okay."

They were meant to return to their respective rooms, but Rena couldn't help herself. She held on to his waist, seeking the comfort of his embrace.

It was long lost hug for Rena.

In that long-lost hug, Waylen looked down at the woman he loved.

His eyes were filled with a mix of emotions.

Rena's affectionate display touched him deeply. In that moment, he realized how much he had missed these tender moments they once shared. He owned her now. As long as he wanted, he could enjoy her body tonight.

But he knew that mere physical intimacy wasn't enough.

What he truly desired was not just her body, but her heart, her love, and her trust. ©

He wanted all of her, her mind, body, and soul.
