Epilogue

KATELYN.

They say that when you truly love someone, you'll choose to listen to your own heart and not be swayed by what others say. Many have become foolish, hurting themselves by turning a blind eye to the love they feel, while others are blissful for taking the risk and investing in that special person.

Indeed, you can never find answers unless you seek them out. The outcome will forever remain a mystery unless you take the plunge, and the size of the reward will remain unknown unless you dare to bet or take a chance.

Life demands that you take risks.

You must step out of your comfort zone and find answers using your own feet.

Don't let others dictate or impose their desires upon your life. Yes, seeking advice from others isn't necessarily wrong, but you should discern whether it genuinely benefits you or traps you in your limitations.

I, too, once chose to listen to my parents even when I knew nothing about what was happening or could happen. I silenced the voice of my heart because that was what my parents wanted.

I never learned to make decisions for myself. I quickly judged men, assuming they were all the same, all deceitful.

I became blind to genuine people who wanted to enter my life, people who wanted to be with me and love me. I turned away from facing the present even though I had no idea what might happen.

Quickly judging became ingrained in my mind, where all men were ferocious wolves disguised as sheep, waiting to prey on their victims.

If I had never met Eligor, I wonder if I would still hold the same view of men or if I'd still be happy today.

It makes me ponder whether, if I hadn't taken a chance on him and accepted our flaws and mistakes, I would be as liberated and content as I am now.

I feel like I wouldn't; I couldn't achieve this without Eligor.

"Kate, what are you thinking? Why aren't you fully present with me?" he asked while lying beside me, playfully teasing me again.

Unaware, my mind was drifting, unable to believe that I was in this situation, happy to be with him.

"I'm just happy," I replied to him, and he lay down next to me, wrapping his arms around me.

"Are you happy even though we sometimes have disagreements?" he asked, and I nodded, hugging him back.

You have no idea, Eligor, how much joy you bring into my life every day. You have no clue about the depth of my love for you, even when you occasionally drive me crazy with your stubbornness.

"Of course, no relationship can be perfect without occasional conflicts; that's where we grow. It just depends on whether you seek solace in someone else. Maybe you need comfort from another woman, huh?" I teased him, raising an eyebrow and playfully judging.

But it was all in jest because I knew Eli couldn't do that to me. He would never deceive me because I knew I needed to be careful, and I was the one who needed to remain faithful in this relationship as I held his heart now.

I also knew that the reason he wouldn't cheat wasn't just that he would die if I stopped loving him. I knew that Eligor truly loved me and could never betray me.

Whether an incubus and a mortal have an agreement or not, I firmly believe that he will never deceive me.

"Am I seeking solace in someone else? You're the only one who can calm me down; what more could I need from another woman?" he asked, serious in his expression, seemingly unaware that I was just joking.

"Hahaha, I know that already. Why so serious?" I replied, and he pouted, hugging me again, but I could feel his hand gently caressing my right chest. This man just never stops, does he?

"Because I couldn't do that; just thinking about it hurts my heart," he answered, and I held his hand that was already inside my shirt, looking at him with a serious expression.

"Wow, you can say that while doing this?" It seemed like he believed I would take his words more seriously when accompanied by such gestures.

"I'm sorry, I moved involuntarily, hahaha," he sheepishly said, even though he always does this.

"What do you mean involuntarily? Does your hand have a mind of its own every night?" I sarcastically asked, laughing, as he continued to play with my heart.

"Hmmm..." I sighed, knowing that he was trying to lure me into his trap again.

"Eli, you know our child is in the next room. What if Eleryn hears us? The walls in this vacation house are so thin," I complained, unable to resist biting my lip due to the pleasure he was giving me.

His warm and large palm overflowed as he repeatedly massaged my ample curves.

"Just keep it quiet, lower your voice," he whispered to me, and I couldn't help but bite my lip again, this time covering my mouth.

Eli is truly one of a kind. Our daughter Eleryn just turned four this month, and we decided to celebrate her birthday at the beach to have some fun together.

Little did I expect that her father would be having the most fun. For the past two nights, he has been thoroughly enjoying our little nighttime escapades on the bed.

Earlier, he deliberately tired out Eleryn, so she would fall asleep early, giving him the chance to have me all to himself tonight. I don't know where Eli gets all this energy, considering he used to be a regular human and not an incubus.

Ever since he returned to us, he started working a normal job, building everything from scratch. He left behind his past life and worked as hard as he could to make a living.

At first, it wasn't easy for him; he had no money and only borrowed some from Loraine for his fare to come to us. After that, he worked part-time at a café and studied other skills that could help him earn money.

When I introduced him to my parents, he did everything he could to gain their acceptance, especially from my mother, who had her fair share of struggles with someone like him, an incubus.

It took almost a year for my mother to fully open up to him, but Eli didn't give up. He worked hard to win her over, doing everything to prove that he deserved her love.

"Ahhh hmm..." I gasped as I felt his warm tongue on my crown, fully aware of how much I enjoyed his little indulgence.

"Shhh... Kate, just keep it down, or Eleryn might ask me again in the morning why there's applause at night when she sees no one clapping," Eli explained mischievously, and I blushed for the two of us.

How am I going to explain to Eleryn that the clapping noise is just the sound of her father and me having fun together?

"What did you tell her?" I asked hesitantly, clutching the pillow tightly due to the pleasure I was feeling. I felt his middle finger slide into me; Eli's hand was big, and his fingers were long, and his work had made them a little rough, which added to the sensation and pleasure.

"Hahaha, I told her that we were clapping because we're happy together," he replied with a naughty smile, sliding two of his fingers into me.

"Ahhh," I moaned, biting my lower lip, looking at him while breathing deeply.

Through the passing of many years, one thing remains unaltered: he has truly retained his exceptional prowess in this particular field, still holding a firm grasp on every aspect and position that captivates me wholeheartedly.

"Are you losing your mind? Won't your daughter wonder why we're both still awake and happy?" I retorted sarcastically, but my defiance faded when he pressed my favorite spot.

"She's just four, Katelyn. She won't think about that. Let her understand it when she's older, and she'll realize her father's mischief, hahaha," he replied, smirking mischievously, and I found myself looking at him.

He smiled playfully at me and showed me his long, pink tongue, letting a drop of saliva fall onto me, arousing me even more.

He leaned down and started to devour me, his two fingers continuing to thrust in and out of me. Eligor knew all the right moves to drive me wild.

I never thought I would experience this kind of sexual encounter and pleasure. In the past, I thought I would die a virgin, clueless about these things, but now, I've explored almost all positions in this realm.

Eligor visits me almost every day, seizing every opportunity to be with me. He never gives up on finding ways to be with me.

But in recent months, he's been busy, coming home late because of work, so he doesn't wake me up anymore.

So now, I guess I'll just let him do as he pleases since I also miss being with him like this.

Now that we're both parents, I know there will come a time when we'll be busier and have less time for each other. So, while we still have the chance, we'll enjoy each other's company.

Because we know that since we had our child, Eleryn, she needs to be our priority, and we must give her love, time, and attention.

But of course, I can't neglect my partner. So, as long as I have the opportunity, I'll shower Eli with my love.

"Kate, your mind is drifting again. Focus on me," he said, and I looked at him as he was already on top of me, ready to take action. He held his sword, which was clearly visible in the moonlight.

I smiled at him, adjusted my position on the bed, leaning my back against the headboard, and spread my legs to welcome him—I also wanted to give Eli pleasure.

"Wow, did you know how incredibly sexy you look right now?" He asked, holding his hair while his eyes reflected love and desire for me.

"Even though I've given birth, you still see me that way?" I questioned, and he came closer, holding onto my leg.

"Absolutely, even if we have ten children together, you will always be beautiful in my eyes, and you'll only get more radiant with time," he replied, pulling me closer as we embraced.

Without any further words, he passionately explored my every curve and rhythm, blending both speed and gentleness to perfection. Our union echoed through the room, and I struggled to contain my moans of pleasure.

"Damn, you're so beautiful, Kate," he whispered while continuing to move with such intensity that it was hard to keep my focus.

"Papa! Mama! I can't sleep!" We both turned our attention to the door and thanked Heaven that we locked the door before doing this thing. Where our daughter, Eleryn, was knocking.

In a rush, we quickly adjusted our clothing. Eli even stumbled, attempting to put on his pants, and hurriedly rushed to open the door for our anxious little one.

"E-Eleryn, what's the matter, sweetheart?" Eli asked, and I approached our daughter as well.

"You guys are so noisy with all the clapping; it's already late," she explained, her straightforwardness making us wince.

We both exchanged amused glances, knowing she had caught us in the act. Eli carried her into the room and settled her between us.

"Sorry, we were just having a really happy moment, hahaha," he joked, and I couldn't help but laugh as I observed my little family.

This family brings me joy every single day, and I can confidently say that I'm content and have nothing more to wish for.

In the embrace of my beloved partner and our child's laughter, I have found my happiness, and this is where my heart truly belongs.

The End.
