"Come eat dinner, my lovely wife." Alex said with a smile. Dinner was quiet and peaceful. They had small conversations while they ate. "Lillith, why were you trembling when you straddled me in the bench?" Alex questioned.
"Ummm....I have a severe trauma that involves men and because of that I can't touch them." Lillith said cautiously. Alex didn't say anything and started picking up their plates. "I'll clean up. Don't worry about it. You cooked dinner, so I'll clean up the mess." Lillith said hurriedly. Alex only nodded. He hugged her from behind and kissed her cheek before walking away. Lillith was shocked. After she finished cleaning, she walked into their shared room. Alex met her at the door.
"Would you mind if I touched you? Would it be okay if I held you?" Alex asked. Lillith didn't know how to respond. So, she let her body respond for her. She reached up to his neck and hugged him; even though he's taller then her. She had to stand on her tip toes. Alex picked her up by her thighs and wrapped her legs around his waist. He walked over to the bed and layed down with her on top of him. "Let us sleep now." Alex said softly. That was the only thing Lillith heard be drifting off to a peaceful sleep.
