Rekindling Her Affection (Sabrina and Nelson) novel Chapter 50

Sabrina believed no woman, not even herself, could resist a man's tender affection.

As she parted her lips to meet Nelson's, she felt a sting of self-reproach. She had pushed aside his meanness and everything that had happened during this time.

Sabrina's room was shrouded in darkness. The absence of light heightened her sense of hearing.

Back then, she had shared moments like this with Nelson.

They would embrace, kiss, and give in to their desires in a room devoid of light. Sabrina lost track of time during those intimate moments, and any thought of resisting him vanished.

After Nelson cleaned her up, Sabrina curled up under the blanket and fell asleep. He stood by the bed, watching her for a while before leaving the room.

Nelson went downstairs, poured himself a drink, and then sat on the couch.

No drugs or alcohol were involved. In his rational state, he hadn't expected to feel such pleasure and to discover how perfectly in tune they were with each other.

On that rainy night, when Sabrina was under the influence of drugs, Nelson felt as though she had become "her".

That woman had been his first woman. Before Sabrina, she was Nelson's only woman. He had been her first man, too.

When he was surrounded by darkness, she remained by his side. She cared for Nelson and became his guiding light, bringing him warmth. As she held him tightly, he decided to marry her.

In that brief moment of resemblance, Nelson desired Sabrina again in the ward on that rainy night.

But at that time, Nelson didn't feel the same connection despite Sabrina's passion. Even her striking beauty at home didn't make a difference.

A few days later, her face recovered, and the marks on her body disappeared. Nelson thought he could finally make sense of things.

He wondered why Sabrina was so invested that night.

In the dark room, with her arms wrapped tightly around his neck, he almost believed Sabrina was "her". That woman used to cling to his neck like that, embracing him like a child.

Almost seven years had passed since then. While there were many things Nelson did not want to forget, his memories had begun to fade.

For instance, the memory of her fragrance faintly lingered. He only remembered it as a pleasant smell, yet he had forgotten the exact scent.

Nelson could not help but wonder if the whole incident was just his imagination.

After finishing his drink, he picked up his phone and called Dylan.

"Mr. Tucker," Dylan greeted.

"Find out where Sabrina was seven years ago."

…

The next morning, Sabrina saw the man's handsome face as soon as she woke up. Nelson's long, thick eyelashes softened his stern demeanor when he was asleep. He appeared much more approachable now.

This had been the marital life she had once hoped for. Not anymore, though.

Although desire clouded Sabrina's judgment the previous night, daylight signaled the return to reality.

Nelson spotted Sabrina in the dining room. She had already changed her clothes and applied light makeup, ready to leave for work after breakfast.

Upon seeing him, she calmly greeted him with a "Good morning".
