BXBX NOVEL Chapter 108 - Unless
Graven shook his head. "No! You don\'t have to go away. We already agreed upon it. You and my brother can stay in Bay Meadow and raise a family peacefully. I won\'t get in the way of your relationship with him. The moment he\'s back, you will no longer see me. I won\'t be visiting Bay Meadow anymore... unless... it\'s a matter between life and death," he said.
Laura was silent.
Graven was shaking his head vigorously. "Laura, I don\'t want to be the cause of my brother\'s pain. I also don\'t want you to be sad. You and my brother deserved a happy ending," he said, trying to convince her not to leave his brother.
She looked at him. "B-but how about you?"
Graven sighed. Sadness overflowed in his eyes. "If you and my brother can live a happy life and can create a wonderful family, then it\'s all worth it," he answered.
Laura stared at his face for a long time. "I\'m sorry...for you..." she said earnestly.
"I\'m sorry for myself too," he said, teary-eyed.
Laura breathed deeply and fixed her stare on the floor, avoiding his gaze that\'s filled with sadness.
"Can I ask you something?" Graven asked. "I want you to answer me honestly. Please?" he begged.
Laura raised her head and eyed him. "What is it?"
Graven looked at her eyes, his piercing gaze trying to reach her heart. "If you didn\'t meet my twin brother first, will you fall for me? Will you love me?" he asked, holding his breath while waiting for her answer.
"Yes!" Laura answered right away without hesitation.
Graven smiled brightly. Happiness radiated from his face. "Thank you..." he said softly.
Laura saw the twinkle in his eyes. He was very much pleased with her answer.
Graven moved, and before she knows it, he lifted her and deposited her on his lap.
Laura\'s eyes widened in shock. "Put me down!" she demanded.
"Not so fast...babe," he whispered and crushed her lips with his hungry mouth, while his hands traveled all over her body, stroking all the soft parts of her body, creating a trail of intoxicating desire building up in her belly. "I wanna make love to you right now..." he groaned as his mouth nuzzled her earlobe, igniting the fire in her core...then his lips traveled down to her neck and finally on her ample breast as he tries teasing them above her clothes and bra. He lifted her upper garments and sucked on her nipple erotically while his hands found their way inside her underwear and cupped her bottom, kneading her, as his arousal was hardening inside his underwear.
Laura threw her head in ecstasy, loving the rough texture of his hands on her bottom as he pleasures her through her breast sucking at her nipple, sending a high volt of pleasure surging through her body. She was already burning with desire.
"I want to enter you now... babe...I\'m so hard down there..." he whispered in a hoarse voice filled with raw passionate lust.
Laura wrapped her hands around his head as he fumbled on his pants, pulling down the zipper to free his erect manhood. Once he freed his swollen rod, he pulled her underwear and poised his shaft at the entrance of her slippery wet mound. Laura felt his stiff manhood trying to enter her softness...ahhhh...she love the sensation so much...she wanted to go all the way with him but not inside the moving carriage. "We can\'t do it here..." she protested.
"Okay...close your eyes... babe..." he ordered.
Laura obeyed and shut her eyes.
A few minutes later.
"Open your eyes now, babe..." he whispered, looking into her eyes.
Laura opened her eyes and was surprised to see that they were back in her room in the Bay Meadow, sprawled in the bed.
Graven grinned and seek her mouth again for a searing kiss. They shared a passionate kiss while he undresses her. He discarded his clothes as well. They lie down in the bed, both naked.
"Laura...umm..." he panted as his manhood entered her softness.
"Ahhhh...Gravennn..." Laura uttered his name as she wrapped her legs around his pelvis, encouraging him deeper inside her.
Graven began thrusting rapidly on her core...sweats glistened on his forehead...as he builds up momentum.
"Fasterrrr Gravennn..." she ordered.
Graven smiled devilishly as he continues pounding on her core nonstop.
Laura\'s face contorted in ecstasy, her body clenched as she reached her climax. Graven reached his climax a few seconds later as he emptied his seeds inside her.
They lay naked in the bed. Laura was resting her head on his chest. Graven reached for the blanket and wrapped it around them.
"I love you," Graven whispered as he planted a gentle kiss on her forehead.
Laura didn\'t reply. Instead, she closed her eyes.
Graven wrapped his arms possessively around her naked body. "Rest for a while, babe," he said.
Laura was dozing off, feeling sleepy.
A few minutes later, she was already sleeping soundly in Graven\'s arms.
"I love you so much, Laura," he whispered again. It feels so nice to embrace her like this, he felt complete. He closed his eyes to sleep.

Meanwhile, inside the moving carriage.
Rebecca looked at Horace. "It surprised me that Graven chose to travel with Laura this time, why?" she observed.
Horace smiled. "It looks like our Lord is making a move on Laura this time. He\'s no longer content just looking at her. He wants to spend time with her for the duration of our travel," he said.
"I think that he can already see the day when his twin will awaken. He can no longer make a move towards Laura," Rebecca said.
Horace was shaking his head. "Two brothers fall for the same woman? How chaotic is that?" he asked.
"I\'m worried that the time will come that the sibling will have a fall out due to Laura. What do you think is going to happen in the future?" Rebecca said.
Horace sighed. "I think Lord Graven will start distancing himself from Laura the moment we returned to South Pond Town," he said.
"I hope so," replied Rebecca. "Because if Laura and Graven were getting attached. It will be hard for them to avoid each other, and when Luke finally awakened, we will have a storm brewing in the distance," she said.
"Agree..." Horace replied.
One hour later.
They stopped over beside an eatery located a few meters away from the road.
When Rebecca and Horace went to the first carriage to inform the couple that they\'re stopping for lunch, they found out that the vehicle was empty!
"Oh, where are they?" Rebecca asked in a surprised voice.
Horace smiled. "I think they went somewhere on a date. What do you think?"
"Where did they go?" Rebecca\'s brows furrowed.
"To a place that they can have some privacy," Horace answered with a naughty grin.
"What are they going to do in that place?" Rebecca asked.
Horace chuckled and shrugged. "Let\'s ask them when they return," he said.
Rebecca sighed. She hopes that Laura guards herself against Graven\'s charm - for her sake and Luke.
Horace already had a wild guess running in his mind. But he chose to stay mum and wait for the things to unfold. He was confident that Lord Graven knew what he was doing and the consequences of his actions if he still pursue Laura despite the awareness that his twin brother Luke is returning to the land of the living soon. "Let\'s get inside the eatery along with the drivers and eat lunch," he told his companion.
"Okay." Rebecca nods her head.
They walked towards the eatery and entered the open-air establishment to eat their meals.

Meanwhile, inside the room in Bay Meadow.
Graven had already awakened from his slumber. He stared at Laura\'s beautiful face with adoration shining in his eyes. She\'s still sleeping soundly. He smiled with contentment in his heart. He wished they could be like this forever, but he knows they can\'t.
Unless...
He shakes his head vigorously. He doesn\'t want to think of any ill feelings for his twin brother, he wished for his speedy recovery. No matter how much he loves Laura and wanted her to be his woman, he won\'t do something to his twin to jeopardize his coming back to life.
He already accepted the truth that Laura will always love his brother Luke, not him. That\'s a painful thing to accept, but he is willing to move on even though he can\'t forget Laura in this lifetime. He won\'t stand on their way to happiness.
A few minutes later.
Laura stirred in her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes. She remembered that they\'re back inside the room in Bay Meadow to continue their lovemaking. And for the second time, she gives herself willingly to Graven. Sigh, she has no shame left on her body. She took a deep breath.
"Are you awake now, babe?" Graven asked.
"Yeah..." she replied. She rose to her feet, wrapping the blanket around her naked form. "I\'m going to the bathroom to clean myself," she said.
Graven watched as Laura entered the bathroom. He left the bed and picked up their clothes from the floor. He donned his clothes back on his body.
He went to the window and stared outside while waiting for Laura to finish her business inside the bathroom.
Every time he and Laura make love, it feels so right. He considered her as his soulmate. Too bad, his twin brother got her first.
He released a deep sigh.
A few minutes later. Laura exited the bathroom. Graven handed her her clothes. She went back inside the bathroom and donned the clothes on her body.
When she exited the bathroom, she looked at him. "Aren\'t you going to use the bathroom and clean yourself?" she inquired.
Graven shook his head. "No, I don\'t want to get rid of your smell in my body," he said.
Laura blushed crimson red. "Let\'s go...then..." she said.
Graven smiled like he won a lottery and hugged her affectionately.
A few seconds later, they disappeared from the room.
