Gilded Cage Chapters 74-75

Chapter 74
Sonny had promised to call Brenda as soon as her mother was located and he had kept that promise. After she heard that everything was all right she was finally able to relax and get some rest. By the time that Sonny arrived back on the island she was sound asleep in the main bedroom. He is exhausted and agitated. Spending the whole day searching rescue shelters with Mike has left him extreamly wound up. He needs to hold her in his arms almost more than he needs to draw breath at the moment. Hoping that she wants the same thing he strips down to his boxers and slips into bed with her. He places his arms tightly around her and listens to the sound of her breath rising and falling. He inhales her scent and allows it to penetrate every tired cell in his body. He lays his head on her shoulder and a smile crosses his face. He feels her stir in his arms. Even in her sleep she knew when he came in the room and could feel his arms around her.
 Brenda: *Half asleep* I’m glad that your back.
Sonny: I didn’t mean to wake you.
Brenda: That was the plan, in case you have forgotten.
Sonny: You were just sleeping so peacefully, I didn’t want to wake you.
Brenda turns in his arms until they are face to face.
Brenda: I’m awake now, so tell me about your trip.
 
He looks down at her. She is wearing one of his shirts, the mere sight of which makes him want to slip it off of her and make passionate love to her.
Sonny: Is that my shirt that you are wearing?
Brenda: It makes me feel close to you. Do you mind?
Sonny: Not at all, they always look better on you then me. 
I bought you a night gown, but if you would rather waer my stuff, 
that is just fine with me.
Brenda: You bought me more clothes?
Sonny: Just a few pieces. I met a woman in one of the
shelters who was a seamstress. She lost almost everything 
in the hurricane, but she still had some of the clothes that she had made.
Brenda: You felt sorry for her?
Sonny: she is a single mother and her shop was her only
means of support. I bought a few things because you need 
clothes and she needs the money. If you like them, 
you have an appointment with her tomorrow for her to altar some more dresses.
We can stopby on our way to the airport.
Brenda impulsively grabs him and kisses him long and hard, then she hugs him fiercely.
Sonny: What was that for?
Brenda: For being so generous.
Sonny: Because I buy you clothes? 
Brenda: No, because you buy me clothes from a single
mother that lost almost everything in the hurricane.
Sonny: I help however I can.
Brenda: I love you more and more each day because of it.   
Sonny: Things are a mess in San Juan, a lot of people 
have lost everything. We finally found out that the 
guests of the El Conquistador hotel had been taken to 
several shelters. So we started looking until we found 
your Mom.
Brenda: *Skeptical* Oh really? You make it sound easy.
Sonny: Finding your mom was the easy part, spending 
the day with Mike, now that was hard.
Brenda: When you called and I talked to Mike, 
he said that you pretty much tore up the town.
Sonny: That is an exaggeration.
Brenda: Well, whatever you did, thank you.
She embraces him tightly.

Sonny: it was the least that I could do for the woman than I love.
Brenda: Did Mike and my mom come back to the island with you?
Sonny: No, your mother insisted on staying and Mike wanted to stay with her.
I think he was as anxious to be with his wife as I was to spend time with my wife.
Brenda: Mike loves my mother a great deal.
Sonny: That much is obvious, he is very protective of her as well.
I found that out the hard way.
Brenda: *With concern in her voice* What does that mean?
Sonny: I kind of threatened Veronica and Mike jumped all over me.
Brenda: Wait a minute you threatened my mom, why did you do that?
Sonny: I found out that you forgot to mention, 
she tried to kill you before she went on medication!
Brenda: I didn’t want to upset you, besides everything is different now.
Sonny: I’m glad that your mother is no longer crazy, 
but is their anything else that you have forgotten to tell me?
After all we are trying to start out with a clean slate.
Brenda: I can’t think of a single thing. How about you, any more secrets?
Sonny: Well as a matter a fact, there is something else that I need you to know.
Brenda: Is it about the one night stands that you had last year?
Sonny: How do you know about those?
Brenda: I have my ways, but I want you to know that I’m okay with that.
Sonny: I need you to know that I was always safe.
Brenda: I know you well enough to expect no less from you, Sonny.
We don’t have to mention them again.
Sonny: Fine with me, because I’m so tired of living in the past. 
I want to be right here in the present with you for the rest of our lives.
Brenda: I want the same thing.
She kisses him gently.
Brenda: Are my mom and Mike going to come here?
Sonny: I don’t know the last I heard was that Veronica still wanted to wait there in case Jerry or Jax tried to contact you. 
Do you know that from what I could gather Jax hasn’t even tried to find out if you are safe.
She can tell from the tone of his voice that he is angry.
Brenda: Sonny, we agreed that we weren’t 
going to live in the past.         
Sonny: I know, but what kind of bastard doesn’t even check on his fiancée? No, don’t answer that. Instead tell me about what you did today?

He feels Brenda tense up in his arms.

Sonny: What’s wrong?
Brenda: Nothing.
Sonny: Something must be wrong, tell me, what happened today?
Brenda: I met some of your girls.
Sonny: They aren’t my girls.
Brenda: They think that they are. They are all so beautiful, tall and exotic.
Sonny: I guess they are pretty, but they don’t compare to you.
Brenda: How can you say that they are just pretty. They are knock outs!
Sonny: You aren’t comparing yourself to them, are you?
Brenda: Yes and I’m afraid that once I stand next to them you won’t be able to help but make the comparison as well!
Sonny: Why bother? You are the most beautiful woman in the world in my eyes.
Brenda: What if you change your mind and decide that you want one of them?
Sonny: I could have had anyone of those women a dozen times, I didn’t want it then and I don’t want it now
He sits up in bed and reaches over to turn on a lamp.
Brenda: What are you doing?
Sonny: I want to be able to see you when I say these things.
He takes both of her hands in his and gives her a very serious look.
Sonny: I love you and want only you, because of that you are the most beautiful woman in my life. When I look into your eyes I see that love and desire being returned and that is even more beautiful. In fact, I think that your eyes are probably the most beautiful thing about you, because they are the window into your soul
Brenda: Really, my eyes are my best asset.
Sonny: Maybe, or maybe it is your beautiful mouth, the one that takes my breath away every time we kiss.
Brenda: This mouth?

She kisses him passionately

Sonny: *Slightly out of breath* Maybe it is your hands, the ones that know just how to touch my body to awaken my deepest desires. It could be your neck, though.
Brenda: Sonny, nobody has a beautiful neck.
Sonny: I beg to differ.
He brings her hands up to his lips and kisses them, then gives her a seductive look. He turns her around so that she is facing away from him and then trails soft kisses across her neck until he moans softly. He reaches around and starts to unbutton the shirt that she is wearing.
Brenda: What are you doing?
Sonny: I haven’t finished my inventory of the beautiful parts of you body.

He continues to kiss her neck and back until her body is positively charged with pleasure.

Sonny: You have such a beautiful back and neck. Did I mention your beautiful shoulders?
Brenda: I think you are forgetting something?

Sonny thinks for a moment.

Sonny: I don’t think so.

He turns her around so that she is facing him.

Sonny: Wait, now I remember.

He starts to plant kisses on her neck and the front part of her body.

Brenda: *Pulling the shirt back onto her shoulders*  Come with me.

She stands up and pulls him after her towards the bathroom, he grabs his robe and starts to put it on.

Sonny: Is this going to take long?
Brenda: *Teasingly* That depends on how cooperative you are.
Sonny: *Seductively* I can be very cooperative, because you know I had started something in there and I would really like to finish it sooner than later. 

He kisses her neck playfully.

Brenda: Believe me honey, I’m as anxious to make love as you are, but we have to do this first.
Sonny: What exactly are we doing?
Brenda: *Almost kissing him* You, my love have a date with a razor.
Sonny: *Feigning disappointment* Your making me shave?
Brenda: Don’t worry, I’ll help.

This idea intrigues Sonny to no end.

Sonny: You are going to help me shave?

Brenda picks up the razor and Sonny lathers his face and proceeds to shave him. With each stroke, they draw closer together and their desire for one an other increases to an almost feverish level. Having his wife shave his face is the most sensual thing that Sonny has experienced in a long time. Brenda finds that it is a far greater turn on then even she had imagined. When she is finished, she hands him a towel to wipe his face, as he reaches for the towel their hands touch in and electricity surges though both their bodies. Before either realizes what has happened the towel is on the floor and so are they, only to find that the bathroom is too small. 

Brenda: *Smiling* There is no way that this is going to work.
Sonny: No problem.

He stands up, then lifts her into his arms, carries her into the bedroom and gently places her on the bed. He places his body on top of hers and they kiss with enough fire and passion to light up the whole island. She tarts to slip the robe off of his body, but her eyes drift to the unlocked bedroom door, knowing full well that anybody could and probably would walk in at any moment. She pushes him off of her and sits up in the bed.

Brenda: We can’t do this.
Sonny gives her a very puzzled look and then continues to kiss her until she hardly can bare to make him stop. The feelings of passion that he is causing to pulsate through her body are almost too wonderful to risk loosing. What if she never feels anything as wonderful ever again, still the idea of someone interrupting such a personal and intimate moment over powers the feelings of desire that he is arousing in her body. However, Sonny is not as easily convinced. She is his beautiful wife and the one thing that he desires most at the moment is her.
Brenda: I’m serious, we have to stop this now, we can’t make love here.
Sonny realizes that she is serious and pulls back to look at her.
Sonny: Of course we can, we are in love, of age, and married. 
We can do anything that we feel like. Unless you don’t want me?
Brenda: Sonny, there is nothing in this world that I want at this moment more than you.
Sonny: I feel the same way. So what could possibly stop us from fulfilling each others every desire?
Brenda: I’ve seen how people come and go around here. That door doesn’t have a lock.
Sonny: So, your telling me that we have to lay here wanting each other because we can’t lock the door?
Brenda: Anybody could walk in here at any moment. My sister Julia, Lois, even Brook Lynne.
Sonny: So what are we supposed to do, take cold showers until we can lock the door?
Brenda: It is the responsible thing to do.
Sonny: The hell with being responsible! This isn’t the first time that I’ve said this and it probably won’t be the last. I want you Brenda, now!
If not here, then someplace, any place!
He stands up and picks Brenda up, along with several layers of the bed covers.
Brenda: *Caught off guard*  What are you doing?
Sonny: I’m taking my wife someplace secluded so that her and I can make love.
His mouth comes crashing down on hers and he swallows any protest in a deep lingering kiss. Not that Brenda would have protested, he thrills her when he exhibits this kind of take charge attitude. They continue to kiss as he carries her down a set of back stairs and into the night.
Chapter 75
A full moon lights the way as Sonny carries Brenda to a very secluded area, some distance from the casino. He places her gently on the ground and leans over her and kisses her, softly at first, and then with so much breath steeling intensity that it she nearly passes out. They continue to kiss like that for a small eternity. Neither Sonny nor Brenda can remember the last time that they have felt this alive, and each kiss increases the passion between them.
Brenda: I think we might be lost.
Sonny: Only in each other, baby.
Brenda: What if we can’t find our way back to the casino? 
Sonny: I don’t care 

He kisses her neck and then pulls back to look at her.

Sonny: You are the most beautiful woman on earth.
In the moonlight he can see her eyes shine as she smiles.
Brenda: You are a little biased.
Sonny: No it’s true.
You are beyond beautiful, you are radiant, your beauty radiates from within.

They kiss once more.

Brenda: Make love to me.
She runs her hands though his hair. She slides the robe of his shoulders and runs her hands across his body down his back and back around to his cheat and arms, her touch is so hot that it nearly burns his skin. She kisses him , first on the mouth and then the chest and finally his shoulders and his back. He unbuttons the shirt she is wearing and kisses her neck and the front part of her upper body. She sighs with pleasure as he kisses and touches her in all the right places. He pulls back to look at her once more, drinking in her beauty. He could get lost in her eyes but, the hunger that she feels for him is too great. She needs to feel his touch and his kiss. She pulls him to her once more, with more force than he had expected. They kiss again and as their mouths fuse together in hot passion, their bodies begin to do the same. They proceed to kiss each other and make love for hours whispering words of love and encouragement to one another. When they fall asleep in each others arms hours later, they have connected in a way that neither of them could have ever dreamed possible. They are body and soul mates, able to fulfill each others every passion and desire on a level that transcends all earthly bounds. Sonny wakes up several hours later with Brenda snuggled tightly in his arms. He can hardly believe that she is really there and that they just shared on of the most amazing experiences that he can ever remember. He traces her face with his finger and smiles. He is so happy, and he hopes that the content smile on Brenda’s face indicates the same thing. Sonny watches her for a while, part of him wants to wake her and make love with her again, but she is so beautiful sleeping in his arms and she seems so at peace, that he decides not to disturb her. Instead he just enjoys watching he and holding her, but he has one weakness. Her slightly parted lips prove to be to desirable and he can’t help but kiss her. She opens her eyes and smiles at him.
Sonny: Hello, beautiful.
Brenda: Hi yourself. That was amazing.
Sonny: No it wasn’t amazing.
Brenda: Oh really, what was it than?
Sonny: There aren’t words to describe what happened between us just now.
Brenda: I feel like I’m floating right now, and I don’t want to ever come 
back down to earth.
Sonny: why should we ever have to?
Brenda: We can’t stay in each others arms forever.
Sonny: True, but we can always come back here.
Brenda: *Teasing* You don’t even know where we are.
Sonny: It doesn’t matter, we don’t have to come back to this place. I mean we can always come back to this feeling.
Brenda: Do you ever wonder if this time was the best that it’s ever going to be.
Sonny: Not at all, because it keeps getting better, we keep getting better. The feelings that I have for you as my wife are so much more intense than anything that I’ve ever felt before in my life.
Brenda: What about when I’m 8 months pregnant with our first child?
Sonny: You really want to have children?
Brenda: I have always wanted to be the mother of your children.
Sonny: I thought so, but you scared me a little when we talked about it earlier.
Brenda: I’m sorry to scare you. I didn’t mean to make you think that I never wanted to have children.
Sonny: You know, even the thought of you carrying my child drives me wild. When you are 8 months 
pregnant I don’t think that I’ll be able to keep me hands off of you.
Brenda: You say that now, but when it happens you won’t be able to get near me.
Sonny: Is that a challenge, because I love a good challenge.
Brenda: Just wait until it happens and then you’ll know what I mean. 
Brenda: Where are we?
Sonny: It’s hard to tell at night.
Brenda: Will you be able to find your way back?
Sonny: Hopefully, but like I said earlier, who cares?
Brenda: I supposed that Carlos or someone will come looking for you sooner or later.
Sonny: I’m afraid that it won’t be too long before we are missed.
Brenda: Not us, just you. Everybody here hates me, Sonny.
Sonny: Very few people here even know you and those that do adore you as much as I do.
Brenda: Okay, you’re right, very few people here have met me. They still hate me though.
Sonny: Why would you say that?
Brenda: I found out what happened to all the beautiful clothes that you bought for me.
Sonny: What?
Brenda: Some of the girls that work in your casino review got rid of them as a way of showing me that they are in charge.
Sonny: Tell me who and I’ll take care of it.
Brenda: You don’t have to, I took care of it myself.
Sonny: * A little tense* What exactly did you do.
Brenda: You are going to be mad at me, aren’t you?
Sonny: No I won’t be mad sweetheart, just tell me what you did.
Brenda: They were getting ready for a show, so I hid their costumes so that they couldn’t go on.
Sonny: That is it, I only lost one show?
Brenda: Actually, the show went on just fine, Julia was able to carry it alone.
Sonny: Your sister is a good singer.
Brenda: So I had heard, but I didn’t believe it until I experienced it for myself.
Sonny: I think you handled the situation just fine, baby.
Brenda: You aren’t mad because I interfered with your business?
Sonny: no, I’m proud of the way that you handled things. I bet that word has already gotten around that my wife is not one to be messed with.
Brenda: I doubt that they even realize that I’m your wife. They were basically standing in front of me and bad mouthing your wife. They didn’t even know who I was, Sonny.
Sonny: I’d say it is past the time when they should have met you. What would you think about skipping the trip to Argentina and being the guest of honor at a dinner tomorrow night?
Brenda: Wait a minute, are you trying to back out on signing the marriage certificate?
Sonny: Not in this life time.
Brenda: Sonny, if we don’t leave for Argentina tomorrow, we will be getting very close to the deadline.
Sonny: That is true, but I could always fly the judge over here from Argentina.
Brenda: You can do that?
Sonny: I don’t see why not. We can go to San Juan in the morning for your appointment with the seamstress. We can pick up Mike and your mother while we are there and bring them back here. The judge can arrive in the after noon and he can declare you legally alive. We can send the marriage certificate back with him and he can file it. Then we can have a dinner to really celebrate and I can introduce you to everyone on the island. I want the whole world to know that you are my wife and that you mean everything to me.
Brenda: Can you do all of that on such short notice?
Sonny: I can do anything that I set my mind to doing.
Brenda: *Smiling* You have changed.
Sonny: For the good, I hope.
Brenda: Yes, I think it’s for the good, you are a lot more spontaneous now and you don’t always have to be in control of everything. I think that the changes I see in you are very good.
Sonny: If I’ve changed it is because of you Brenda. I love and adore you and I would do anything for you.
Brenda: Will you listen to me while I tell you just one more thing about Jax?
Sonny: Um, I would rather not think about Jax right now, but go ahead.
Brenda: Okay, this is about when Jax and I used to make love.
Sonny: I really don’t’ want to hear about this.
Brenda: You need to hear this, because it concerns things that I will and will not do.
Sonny: Okay, but I think I pretty much know what you like by now.
Brenda: We know each other pretty well, but just in case. You have to know right now that Jax used to like to make me role play.
Sonny: You mean like he would be the sailor and you would be the naughty barmaid?
Brenda: Something like that, only it involved calling him Super Jax!
Sonny: *Trying not to laugh* Let me guess, you are going to tell me that I can’t use this bit of information against him either?
Brenda: Sonny, that isn’t why I tell you these things.
Sonny: I know, sweetheart, but I would never make you do anything that degrading.
Brenda: I just wanted to let you know that role playing isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be.
Sonny: I don’t know, it might be kind of interesting.
Brenda is surprised that he would even suggest anything like that. She doesn’t need to fantasize that they are anything different. Just looking at Sonny and thinking about how he makes her feel is more than enough to excite her. She is actually a little disappointed that Sonny would need her to be something else.
Brenda: What do you mean?

Sonny kisses her neck.

Sonny: Well, I was thinking that you could be my wife, best friend, soul mate and the woman that I desire most in the world and I could be the man that wants more than anything in this moment to make wild passionate love to you for the next several hours.
Brenda: Sonny, that isn’t role playing, that is just a repeat of the last few hours.
Sonny: Believe me, it isn’t going to be a repeat of anything we have ever experienced before.
Sonny pulls her to him and kisses her with so much fervor that she nearly passes out. She finds that he is able to coax sensations out of her that she never knew were possible, as they start to make love once more.
