Elona’s POV
It has been two weeks since my surgery. Tristan was amazing, he was supportive and made sure to be there for me even though my father was around. But I had this constant feeling within me that was nagging me the entire time. That feeling was telling me to inform Tristan about the truth.
Now I stand in front of his front door, knocking. Cris is at SNT because she had to go on another outing program with them for the weekend. The door swung open and Tristan was on the phone. Sadly, they didn’t find the hacker because that hacker was constantly on the move. It was just weird for me that it was tracked that the hacker was close to The Dakota Agency building.
“I will call you back,” he hung up and opened the door wider for me. “Is everything okay?” he asked as I stepped inside as concern laced his voice.
“I know that you might be busy with work, but I wanted to come over to tell you some things,” I said as he closed the door behind me.
I turned around to face him, his brows furrowed, “Okay? Let’s go sit in the kitchen,” he gestured for me to go first, and I did.
I pulled a chair from the dinner table and took a seat. He sat across from me, “This might not be an easy thing, but I think that you should know about this.” I leaned back in the chair, taking in a deep breath.
His green eyes were brighter today, and they were so gorgeous I could stare into them the entire day. I swallowed. “What is it? Is it endometriosis?” he asked as he now placed his phone on the table.
I shook my head, no, “No, it’s something else that I lied-” his phone rang, stopping me from saying anything further.
“It’s work. We are quite busy, especially with the hacker constantly on the move. I feel as if this person is playing a fool with me. This hacker took a little money from the company yet again.” he said as his phone rang again. “I need to take this,” he said, as he answered the phone.
As he had his conversation on the phone, barking orders, I was slowly losing the will to tell him the truth. I took another deep breath, willing myself to not back out from this. This is important for our relationship if I want to have a future with him. I don’t know how he will react, but I can’t keep up with the lies. There is so much of it, I just need to get it over with.
I fidgeted with my hands in my lap as I found his eyes already on me as I took a nervous breath. “Yeah, can I call you back, I have something important that needs my attention now,” his eyes never leaving mine, they were burning into me, and it was like that first day that he stared at me over the glass of juice that he drank, which made my crush for him explode into more. “I will call you back. Let me know if there is anything else… thanks,” he hung up and placed his phone on the table again.
I shifted on the chair, this is now or never, “What is it? Is everything okay? You can talk to me… I won’t bite,” I looked at him. He smirked a little.
“Well, this won’t be easy, but it needs to be said.”
“Okay, I’m all ears,” he pushed me a bit further.
I need to just dive into this and get it over with, “I lied to you about being a virgin and I lied about having experience with things. I was never with another guy. As Cris said before, I’m a saint and I was keeping myself for someone that I wanted to have that moment with. I have always had a crush on you over the years, but that one day in the kitchen when you stared at me over the glass, it made me feel like more than just a silly crush. I couldn’t believe it when you returned my feelings. When we ended up having sex that night for the first time, and you asked if I was a virgin, I said no because I didn’t want you to stop and have us wait. I wanted to have sex with you in that moment. I just didn’t want to wait because I was a virgin. More lies came up when you asked me if I had any experience. I had no experience at all, but I tried to satisfy you,” I looked at him as he continued to burn his gaze into me, which wasn’t making things easy for me. I didn’t know if he was okay or not.
“So, all this time you lied to me about that?” he finally asked.
“Yes, those are the only times I lied. It won’t happen again,” I bit my bottom lip. I was nervous.
“Okay… I guess women just like to do whatever it is to get into my pants,” the corners of his lips curled up as he looked down at his phone. But they were gone as quickly as they curled up.
“It wasn’t like that for me, I swear. It’s more than sex for me,” I blurted out, which was true.
“I would’ve worshiped your whole body, I wouldn’t have been rough and made you bleed the way that I did. A virgin doesn’t need to have sex roughly, I would massage the nerves out of you before I had even been inside of you because a virgin needs to be relaxed.” he finally looked up at me. “That is what I would’ve done. If you really wanted sex that night, if you had told me the truth right there, that is what I would’ve done. I would’ve made sure to listen to you and make sure that you were okay. I would’ve been gentle, the same way I should’ve been before you were rushed to the hospital for your endometriosis. I don’t just fuck, I worship too. I just need transparency from now on. No secrets or lies at all. I hate lies, I do have feelings too.”
“I promise this won’t happen at all. That is everything that I lied about. You know about everything now,” I said.
He nodded, “Good, because now… I will show you just the way I would’ve worshiped every inch of your body as if it was that first time.” he leaned in closer to the table, his eyes dark with hunger. My core throbbed. This wasn’t how I had expected this to go, but it turned out great. I can finally let out a sigh of relief.
His phone rang, and he had to answer it as he stood up and walked out of the kitchen. I looked down at my hands, they were trembling from the nerves that I had while I told him the truth. I literally thought he would have a fit about it, but I was wrong. That didn’t destroy us, we are still strong. After a while, he came back. “Sorry, but I need to take care of work. I’m not sure how long it will be, but this is important. I feel bad to be doing this.”
“It’s fine, I will text you later,” I stood up and walked to him. I leaned in, and he rested his hands on my hips. He placed a chaste kiss on my lips, “I love you, never forget that,” he said against my lips.
“I love you too,” I replied as I pulled away, and I moved out of his grasp. I went back home.
I understood that he had work to do that was important regarding this hacker. I didn’t want to stand in the way of it. As long as I know that we are still going strong, there will be nothing that will come between us now and that makes me happy.
