The beads were big, which made it seem very expensive. However, it also looked like something that had been passed down in generations.
She examined the box, spotting the Smith familys initials at the bottom.

Whats up? After his shower, Marcus strolled over with a towel wrapped around his waist, and plopped down beside her. He slipped an arm around Melissas waist, pulling her close. When she snapped back to reality, she shook her head, muttering, Nothing!
With a glance downwards, she added, Its from that man! Then, after a pause, she continued, It mustve belonged to my mom.
What was the point of Weldon pulling this stunt now, especially after he had let her mom down? Marcus took the bracelet from Melissa, giving it a once-over. It kind of matched her style, he reckoned Melissa must take after her mom a lot. Weldon must have had genuine feelings for her mom back then. It was a shame their relationship had been built on lies and had ended in tragedy.
He returned the bracelet to its box, saying, Ill have it sent back ‘tomorrow.
Melissa looked at him gratefully upon hearing that.
Were a team now. Taking care of stuff like this is part of the deal, Marcus said softly, planting a kis on Melissas lips.
Without hesitation, Melissa leaned in to kis him back. After a moment, she playfully ran her fingers along Marcus jaw, murmuring, Marcus, | love kising you.

You havent looked elsewhere all these years. Cant find anyone better than me, huh? Melissa, feeling grown and confident, didnt hold back, especially with Marcus.
Knowing Marcus liked the praise, she chuckled.
Yep, youre spot on. Never found anyone as handsome as you! Isit just for my good looks? Marcus asked, his tone hinting at a warning, like he wouldnt let Melissa off easy if she didnt give the right answer. Meanwhile, he slipped a hand under Melissas clothes, whispering, Any other reasons you cant get me out of your head? Tell me.
What do you mean? Melissa played dumb, so Marcus decided to tease her a bit. After spending so much time together, they knew how to flirt and make each other feel good
Melissas breath grew shallower with each passing moment.
Wrapping her arms around Marcus neck, she chuckled, saying, Lets take this to the bed! But Marcus pushed aside the presents and started kising her gently.
Then, in a seductive tone, he murmured, The carpets real soft; you wont feel a thing.
