The Bound Between Us

Chapter 111
Herman gifted Anastasia a swan shaped necklace
He put it around her neck himself and kissed her forehead, Do you like it?”
Anastasia gently stroked the pendant and smiled, “As long as it is from you, I love it
They’d been married for quite a while now and Herman had given her rings, necklaces, while she hadn’t given him anything,
which left her feeling a bit
awkward
Herman affectionately tapped her nose and seeing a thermos on the table, and asked, “What’s this?”
Anastasia suddenly remembered, “Oh, this is soup my mom made for you. She wanted me to bring some home to nourish you. I
went over to her place today and brought back some other food. Let me grab the tableware, wanna give it a try?”
Herman wasn’t hungry, but seeing Anastasia so eager, he agreed.
“Sure, I must try my mother-in-law’s cooking.”
Anastasia happily fetched the tableware, poured the soup, handed him a spoon, and then sat down, propping her face with her
hands, watching him eat.
She loved watching him eat. It was a visual treat for her.
Herman smiled and took a sip. “Delicious”
Anastasia pretended to be jealous, “My mom’s always thinking about you. She sends all the good stuff back with me for you.
People might think you’re her son and I’m the outsider.”
Herman chuckled, “Are you jealous?”
Anastasia played along. “Yeah.”
As soon as she finished speaking, his lips suddenly covered hers.

Herman unexpectedly leaned in for a soft kiss.
She was still in a daze, and he smiled, asking, “What about now?”
Anastasia covered her face with her hands, blushing. Her reaction lightened his mood.
Seeing her flushed face, Hermans heart skipped a beat.
He put down the spoon, leaned in to her ear and said, “I think I fancy a change of taste.”
“Huh?”
Before Anastasia could react, Herman scooped her up and headed directly for the bedroom.
That was when Anastasia realized what this guy wanted to do
Once Herman’s passion was ignited, it was unstoppable. She had just received his necklace, how could she possibly deny him?
In this regard, Herman seemed to have endless energy, his stamina was impressive.
The night fell and the intertwined figures reflected on the window, both entering a world of passion.
Anastasia was too exhausted, she had no idea when it ended and fell asleep
When she woke up, Herman had changed her into fresh pajamas. She was lightly wrapped in his arms, feeling incredibly secure.
She gently traced his eyebrows in the dim light, her heart filled with joy.
Women were magical creatures. Once they gave their heart, they fell deeply into their mans world.
Suddenly, he grabbed her hand and kissed it before opening his eyes. His voice was deep and charming as he said, “Naughty
girl, seems like what we had earlier wasn’t enough.”
Anastasia immediately snuggle
Tinto his chest, I’m tired, need to sleep.”
A soft chuckle echoed above her head, then there was silence, his hold on her just tightened.

They lay there, tightly wound together. After a while, Anastasia said, “Herman, there’s something I need to tell you.”
She hesitated for a moment but decided to come clean.
With his eyes closed, Herman said, “Go on, I’m listening”
“I used to suffer from severe depression and because of that, I’ve lost some of my memory” Anastasia was worried that this part
of her past might affect their current life, so she decided to be honest, I didn’t intentionally hide this from you,”
Herman had some knowledge about Anastasia, but not in great detail.
He truly didn’t know about Anastasia’s past depression.
His thumb gently caressed the back of her hand, he softly asked, “Why do you suddenly want to talk about this now?”
