problem with family
Victoria’s P.O.V. (continued)

A loud whimper escaped from my lips while I tried to sit up on my knees on the couch. “What’s wrong?” he asked me again, but I was so overwhelmed that I couldn’t speak but cried aloud.
I wasn't hallucinating. He was really here.
Standing at the door of my bedroom, wearing his usual nightwear.
He almost ran to me with that worried expression on his face; sleep immediately vanished from his eyes.
He immediately embraced me, and I wrapped my hands around his neck into a tight embrace and hid my face in the junction of his neck and shoulder.
The moment he embraced me, I felt as if I had found my world again. I felt like I belonged.
He moved me onto his lap in a strangling position while holding me tightly by my torso.
“Did something happen at work? Did someone say something to you?” he continued asking me worriedly.
I just shook my head negatively while crying hard.
He tightened his grip on my torso and let me cry my heart out. Gordon wasn’t a person of words. He could argue about anything for hours, but when it comes to comforting someone or me, he was always at a loss.
“I….. I thought th… that you also abandoned me.” I grumbled while crying bitterly.
“What? What did you say?” he asked, shocked by what I said.
I didn’t repeat but cried a bit louder.
“How could you think like that, love? I was busy with some family issues, and with Violet’s pregnancy and all the workload on you, I didn’t want to burden you with whatever sht was going on with me. That’s why I didn’t tell you anything.” He explained angrily, but he sounded more worried.
I felt guilty, but I felt light in my chest.
“But you didn’t even send me a single message these days, let alone call me.” I still complained while crying, sounding wronged in the process.
“You don’t know what hell I faced these days, my love. I was so frustrated and angry that I could have killed a few people. I knew th… that I wouldn’t be able to control my anger even in front of you. So, I ….I.” He paused and took a deep breath.
“I am sorry. I am really sorry, love. I didn’t handle the situation well.” He apologized, sounding remorseful and troubled.
I tightened my hold on his neck, pressing my body to his chest.
“Don’t say another word.” I said this to him in a choked voice.
He sighed, tightening his hold on me a little more.
For the next few minutes, I guess, I just kept on crying, venting all my sadness out of my chest, and he just kept on stroking my back and rocking my body a little.
“We need to clear a few things between us, Gordon.” I spoke to him in a hoarse voice after I stopped crying but was taking hiccups with light sniffing from time to time.
He sighed and rubbed the side of his cheek the side of my head.
“Let’s have this talk tomorrow morning, love. I am really tired. I came here early and fell asleep as soon as I hit the bed. I just need a peaceful night with you in my embrace.” He requested, sounded exhausted and defeated.
I am not a patient person, but I understand his exhaustion very well.
Sometimes, we just want to lie down and close our eyes, shutting down the whole world to get a few moments of peace.
“Have you eaten?” I asked him while slowly moving my head up.
My voice was still hoarse and my nose was stuffy. I must had looked like a total mess right now, but he had seen me worse than this.
“Nope. But I cooked when I came earlier.” He replied to me and yawned aloud in the end.
I leaned and kissed his forehead. He sighed and slowly leaned his head towards me.
I let him rest his forehead on my shoulder.
“This is just a bad phase of life, baby. You have dealt with situations worse than this. You are not alone, okay? I am also with you. I know that I haven’t done anything that can make you trust me enough with all your problems, but I am here, okay?” I comforted him gently, rubbing my side cheek to the side of his head.
“I know, Vic. I know that I can trust you. Heck, there is no one else around me who can be as trustworthy as you. I love you, Vic, and I trust you with my life.” He replied to me, desperate to make me believe his words.
“It…. It’s my relatives and family whom I don’t trust, not even a bit. If… if I let you stay with me this time, they would have come after you, and I don’t want to put your life in danger at any cost. I …. Now I want to be strong enough to protect you from the whole world. J…. just give me some time, love. Just a little bit more time.” His desperation made me feel his heartache and also the pain that he was suppressing in his heart.
I cupped his face and pulled it away. Before he could even see me, I crashed my lips onto his.
He immediately held the back of my head while kissing me back with the same intensity. I kissed her to assure him that I trust every word coming out of his mouth.
And he kissed me to assure himself that I will always be with you.
He wrapped his other hand around my waist, pushing my body on his chest. I slipped my hand towards the back of his head and moved my fingers inside his hair before pushing his head towards me to deepen the kiss.
I moved my hand on his chest restlessly, rubbing it all over his exposed neck, and then to his upper chest.
I felt something hard poking my clothed cunt, sending a shiver not only to my cunt but to my spine too. My body shuddered a little in pleasure.
I rocked my hip a little, creating a desperate friction there while biting his lips furiously.
He was also biting and sucking my lips furiously.
He pulled my shirt out of my pants and slipped his hand inside the shirt on my back. I moaned softly as soon as he rubbed the roughness of his palm against my skin. I also pulled his t-shirt up and pressed my hand against his lower chest, feeling the strength of his muscles there.
Suddenly we both stopped, our lips still intertwined, but neither of us moved a muscle.
I turned red in embarrassment when my stomach thundered again.
He suddenly laughed against my lips, and I hit his chest before moving away from him.
He didn't let me go immediately, though.
He kissed my lips one more time before cupping my face.
"Go, and freshen up. I am going to heat our dinner. Let's continue after I fill your belly first," he teased, and I glared.
