He looked like an angel while he was asleep. His skin looked radiant, shimmering with the bit of light that leaked from outside. I also liked the shape of his lips, plump and tasty. I felt strange knowing that it was our last time sleeping together.“Hey…” Sun, 27 Mar 2022 10:44:31 +0000 Lovers of Freedom Chapter 27- Back to Ireland, baby. https://www.penana.com/story/67953/lovers-of-freedom/issue/27  I lied in bed naked with a gorgeous man.

Our bodies just matched and it was a perfect moment, until Andreina interrupted us.“Morning guy Thu, 14 Oct 2021 14:12:15 +0000 Lovers of Freedom Chapter 26- A beating heart https://www.penana.com/story/67953/lovers-of-freedom/issue/26 It smelled of bacon. I pulled myself up the sofa and I went to the kitchen. Emily was sat with some breakfast on the table. Bacon, scrambled egg and toast. Emily smiled at me.“I picked up a letter from your house this morning…” Emily said. “Drake told me to leave it, but it was from Mark!”I looked at the girl and smiled. Mark!

I was happy, I was not drinking, and I realised I liked my engagement. It had only been five days, but I missed my man, and I missed waking up by his side. I wish I could say the same about Tom!

I had been left by myself all night. “Annie, wake up…” Tom said with a soft voice. I felt his hand caressing my back, and I loved every second of it. I just stayed in bed feeling his touch. Tom kissed me on the forehead. “Come on the train is leaving in an hour.” “I don’t want to!” I said gig Sun, 21 Mar 2021 18:55:58 +0000 Lovers of Freedom Chapter 21 + Tom https://www.penana.com/story/67953/lovers-of-freedom/issue/21 I woke up with terrible throat pain and a headache after drinking so much the night before.
