Sam and I drove home to find the tribe's chief was waiting for us at our front door.
"It's good to see you. If we knew you were coming, then we would have prepared." Said Sam.
The chief smiled and came to us. "I came to check on you." He said.
I smiled. "Has your marriage been completed yet?" asked the chief.
"What does that mean?" asked Sam. " I mean your marriage has to be consummated." Said the chief.
"It must be consummated by tomorrow to make the wedding, for the pact, valid." He said.
Sam and I gulped for air.
"I see you have not." Said the chief. "You have until tomorrow." Said the chief as he got into his car and drove off.
Silence is what was going through my head. Sam and I sat on the couch in total silence.
What were we to say. "Well, it could be worse; we could have needed exams to prove it." Said Sam.
I smiled. "Yea, I guess you were right." I said. Sam chuckled.
"I'm going to go take a shower." I said. Sam smiled. "Ok, I'm going to go lay down, while you take a shower." He said. I nodded and we both went our separate ways.
I stepped out of the shower and wrapped myself in a towel. I could hear Sam snoring from the bedroom. I looked at myself in the mirror.
Sam had said that he was in love with me. We had only tonight to make our marriage valid, according to the tribe.
I felt the fear coming. I quickly pushed away that fear. "Get yourself together. You knew this day would come sooner or later." I said to myself in the mirror.
I heard the snoring from the bedroom stop; and I felt the fear once again.
I slowly opened the door and walked into the bedroom. Sam opened his eyes and looked at me.
I of course, blushed and Sam slowly got up and walked over to me.
His eyes were burning into mine with desire and was my heart.
Sam placed his hands on either side of my shoulders, which were bare, and I felt the heat of his body radiating off his body. His eyes bore into mine.
They never once strayed away. His mouth suddenly crashed down on mine, sealing the space with a kiss.
The next thing I knew, he was kissing my neck and I felt him bite down. I winced in pain. "I'm sorry, but I had to mark you as mine." He said. I nodded and we continued to kiss.
His hands were roaming my body and I felt the towel slip away.
The fear was now gone, and all that was left was desire.
