Is this destiny?

When they returned home from 'the Chaos compound' after their missions, Sarah showed Aiden the underground storage and the inventory list.

"I am impressed. How many places did you raid to get so many things?", Aiden asked.

"Let's go to the computer room. I have a map there..." Sarah led the way. She was happy that he praised her performance.

Sarah used the interactive map to show him their area of influence, what they destroyed, what they captured, where they intercepted spies...

She explained how Eve helps with simulations, Felix is in charge of the drones…

"Felix is not part of the whole Chaos operation officially, but he knows that drones are used for combat and currently we have more than a thousand of them. He is considerate enough not to ask what exactly I am doing with them…"

Sarah continued her explanation how ten generals are briefed in advance about their missions for the night, and they lead their teams. "You will be proud of our kids when you see recordings. They are making great decisions under pressure…"

Aiden leaned back in his chair and listened to Sarah whose eyes sparkled from excitement. He loves to see her like this… happy.

"We are attacking only resources that belong to Lebedev and Voronin families. However, few groups tried to take what belongs to us, especially at the begining. They served as an example for others. Besides hostile groups, there are others..." She told him about several organizations which contacted them and requested a meeting. "I don't know what to do with them. Do you think that forming an alliance is an option? It would be good if we can use the Mexican cartel to control Voronins who have several large bases in South America, and allies in Europe can help us suppress them further…" Sarah paused and looked at Aiden who was smiling at her. "What do you think?"

"You did great." Aiden took Sarah's hand in his and pulled her to sit in his lap. "I am impressed. But you dumped a lot of information my way and in order to say anything more than that I need to look at the data."

She smiled. "OK. You have access to all files. Look at them when you feel like it. No rush."

Sarah leaned on him and settled her face in the curve of his shoulder. She took a deep breath and her lungs filled with the familiar woody-flowery fragrance. Sarah wrapped her arms around him and appreciated the moment… the two of them holding each other.

Aiden embraced Sarah and enjoyed the feeling of her warmth, and her weight pressing on him just right, and her breath tickled his neck before slipping under the collar of his t-shirt… and his heart increased its pace because her current proximity was not close enough.

"Are you taking the pill, or we need a condom?"

His question made Sarah lift her head and look at him.

"You… you can't be thinking about it, right? You just woke up." Sarah saw that he raised an eyebrow indicating his displeasure because she didn't answer his question.

Sarah hid her face in his neck. For a reason she could not explain, she was shy suddenly. Or maybe it was not shyness, but a discomfort which came with thoughts that were brought from the back of her mind. After what happened, Sarah made a silent vow that she will not allow herself to get pregnant until it's safe for them to have a baby. And as long as those two families are lurking around, it's not safe.

"I'm taking the pill.", she half whispered.

He touched her chin, making her look up to face him and she was lost in the depth of his dark eyes which burned from desire and all her discomfort disappeared.

"You should take it easy… don't overexert yourself…" Sarah weakly protested between kisses when his hands made their way under her clothes.

"Mmm…", he hummed in disapproval while his palms ran down her sides until he reached her waist. "You lost weight."

For a moment, Sarah thought that she was overthinking. They are in the computer room… if he is up to something, shouldn't they go to the bedroom first? But that was only for a moment because his hands moved higher on her back and he undid her bra in less than a second and she realized that he is not picky about the room they are in… Well, he never was.

Her palms ran over his back and she rejoiced that familiar feeling she was missing. His gentle strength… that magnetic force which pulls them closer together… and his scent… the feeling of complete surrender in the arms of a man she trusts unconditionally… Oh, she missed him so much...

Aiden lifted Sarah up effortlessly while spreading her legs around him. He made two steps back and sat in his chair, flinching slightly due to the sensation of the cold leather clashing against his body. He didn't expect that it will be so cold. The chair reclined as he pushed the buttons on the right, and he watched Sarah while she lowered herself on top of him. Only when she was all the way down, he closed his eyes and exhaled. And Sarah knew that he was missing her too.

Each motion of her hips caused sparks to spread through their bodies, igniting them while they merged into one.

Some people get lost in passion, but for the two of them is the opposite. Their breathing synchronizes... their hearts beat as one... they are completely focused on each other. No, they are not lost in passion. They find themselves in it.

Sarah held firmly onto the backrest, just above his shoulders for leverage.

She felt that her climax is building up and wondered if she should slow down, but she saw him frown slightly and she knew that he is getting there. Her grip on the chair intensified, allowing her to increase the pace more, and more… and she heard him groan just before electrifying flames consumed her completely.

CRACK!

They both breathlessly trembled in their own release while her hips moved weakly few more times, in an attempt to prolong their flight.

Sarah opened her eyes and laughed feebly. If she had more energy, she would burst into laugh at his shocked expression when he realized that she crushed the backrest of his chair with her left hand.

Aiden saw Sarah fight, but it was dark, and he was busy himself and unable to pay attention to her left arm and what she is doing with it. He knows that artificial bones are stronger than the real ones, and he thought that it's good for blocking, but this… Aiden laughed with her and pulled her to lay on top of him. He took a mental note to find out more about the procedures she went through. But later. Now he only wants to hold her and caress her body.

…

It was long after midnight when they finally went to sleep after a shower.

As much as Aiden said that he is fine, he slept off within a minute… He yawned in the middle of a sentence and didn't finish it.

Sarah observed Aiden for some time before snuggling next to him. Their bed is back, and those machines are out, and everything is how it's supposed to be, including Aiden. Oh, and Kitty is back to sleeping with Jesse.

Sarah told herself not to cry, because she is not sad. Not even a little bit. But few tears still escaped her.

Sarah placed her head on his shoulder and took a deep breath. Aiden rolled in his sleep, trapping her between his arms. She thought that it's accidental, but then his lips brushed against her forehead and he mumbled that he will never let go again while his arms circled around her. Sarah closed her eyes and smiled. Her world is whole again.
