Hey Ya'll! Happy Sunday! I hope to be back next week. The next few months are going to be tough for me but I hope to update as often as I can! Love Y'all!

Marlene feels nervous and excited at the same time. The day was finally here. She and Caleb were getting married. Even though the city was on the brink of war, marrying Caleb made everything seem right in the world. She looks up when she hears a knock on the door and finds Ms. Haskins standing there.

"Our weddings in Abnegation may be simple but there are a few things that I thought you should have, especially since you didn't have any family, I thought it would be appropriate to give you this."

Marlene's eyes light up when she opens the box Ms. Haskins gives her. It was a white gown, simple and plain but elegant compared to the gray dress or slacks she wore every day.

"Oh Ms. Haskins, it's lovely, thank you so much, I didn't know I could even wear something like this."

"Weddings are special occasions in Abnegation, you must present yourself to your new husband and God in your best. This was mine when I married my husband, I made a few adjustments, but I think it will fit just fine"

Marlene went to change and sure enough, the dress was long and simple with sleeves but not too baggy.

"One last touch, this is the only adornment Abnegation women are allowed to wear"

Ms. Haskins pulled out a small wreath of white flowers woven into a crown that she placed on Marlene's head. Marlene recognized the flowers that grew in abundance in the fields outside of Abnegation near her and Caleb's special place.

"I think a peak should be in order today"

Marlene smiles as she pulls back the sliding cabinet where the mirror is held. Marlene hadn't seen herself since she looked in the mirror the morning of Choosing Day in Dauntless and said goodbye to her old life.

It was odd, she felt new and looked new, familiar but someone different.

Caleb shifts his feet as he adjusts his tie one last time. He wished he and Marlene could be married in a private ceremony, with just the two of them, but the Abnegation saw that as selfish. He didn't need all these people; he just needed her.

"We will be starting shortly, Son," Andrew tells him as he approaches. Caleb nods out of respect.

"I hope that you will take on your responsibilities as a husband with the same amount of effort you have shown with the council the last month after Jacob's death"

"Yes Sir, I will" Caleb vows. Andrew had not been himself since Jacob's murder. Even with his nervousness showing, he still let his controlling nature show.

"You will need to set a strong hand in the beginning, and should she step out of line, you will need to ensure she does not cause any trouble. You need to be in control of your house and your wife"

Caleb takes in a deep breath as Andrew's words wash over him, it would be a cold day in hell before he ever laid a hand on Marlene as Andrew had done with him and his sister and mother.

"Should you need to keep her in line…"

"No, Sir I won't" Caleb interrupts in a harsh tone, his hand balling into a fist. Andrew would never lay a hand on Marlene; he'd make sure of that.

Just as Andrew is about to say something, Marcus calls for them to take their places.

From the moment he catches a glimpse of Marlene, Caleb can't take his eyes off her. With the simple white wedding dress and the flowers in her hair, she was perfect.

Marlene bites her lip to keep from smiling but as soon as she sees Caleb break out in a grin she does too. She doesn't really hear the words Marcus says during his sermon, she is too focused on Caleb. They both smile graciously after their vows are exchanged and congratulations are given from all in attendance. Her heart beats rapidly as they sit for a meal in the Great Hall with all the attendees. In Abnegation tradition, there was no kiss after they were pronounced man and wife but as they sat at the long table surrounded by the other council members, they discreetly interlocked their fingers. Caleb had to force himself to focus on Andrew and his meaningless words about love and devotion and not all the things Marlene had whispered to him that she wanted to happen on their wedding night.

He looked over her and smiled seeing her bite her lip, knowing she was thinking the same thing he was. He was nervous but tonight he wanted to remember forever.

Abnegation didn't believe in gifts but rather in sharing things that people needed. It was customary for a new couple to receive help with things to set up their new home though.

"Is that the last of it?" Marlene asks as she takes things out of a basket on the kitchen table. After the meal at the Great Hall, Marlene and Caleb had smiles and accepted all the gift baskets and all the well wishes.

"Yes, finally" Caleb sighs as he sets two more baskets on the table and then closes the door. He'd had several members help him bring over their things while Marlene had started organizing things.

Marlene had taken the flowers out of her hair, as she moved around the house. The afternoon had been long, and she was annoyed because all she wanted to do was be alone with her husband now.

Caleb could sense her frustration and came over to pull her against him.

"I'm glad we're finally alone"

Marlene doesn't have a chance to respond before Caleb captures her lips with a heated kiss. She immediately wraps her arms around his neck. They kiss like that for several minutes, with Caleb letting his hands roam freely in a way that makes Marlene gasp at his boldness.

When they break apart, Caleb moves to her neck, and Marlene presses herself closer to him feeling how aroused he is.

"Baby, wait just a minute" she gasps pulling away and blinking. She'd almost forgotten about her planned surprise in her haze of lust.

"What's wrong?" Caleb asks, pulling back and looking confused. In the past month, anytime they were able to steal some alone time together, Marlene had whispered all of the things she wanted when they were finally married and could be intimate together.

"I have something special planned. Unzip this dress and then Go upstairs into the bedroom and wait for me"

Caleb grins and she pecks him on the lips and turns around so he can unzip her dress. He does it slowly, leaving a kiss on her exposed back. He smiled as she shivered, loving that he had an effect on her.

Marlene scurries up the stairs into the bathroom and Caleb smiles as he goes up the stairs loosening his tie. He chuckles when he reaches the top of the stairs and enters their bedroom. The soft glow of candles filled the room. Caleb quickly takes off his suit and puts it away in the closet. He looked down at his boxers, should he take them off? Should he wait on the bed?

Just as he was continuing his debate about what to do, he heard the bathroom door open, and Marlene entered wearing not her Abnegation nightgown he had seen in the initiate dorm but a black bra and panties and her hair down and flowing over her shoulders.

Caleb's mouth drops open as Marlene giggles and walks slowly toward him. She'd pulled out the Dauntless underwear she had saved after changing on Choosing Day. She didn't know why she'd washed and folded her things and put them in a bag, but she did. She thought this would be the perfect time to pull them out.

"Wow" is all Caleb can mutter as he watches her. He takes his time to look at her, taking in all the curves that remain hidden under her baggy Abnegation clothing. Curves that he'd felt but never seen before.

"Wow is right" Marlene returns as she traces her fingertips across Caleb's chest. He was chiseled, keeping up his light training routine in the morning.

"We have all night" she whispered, sensing his eagerness as she pulled him toward the bed. Caleb didn't waste any time picking up where they left off downstairs and Marlene reveled in the attention. He took his time removing her bra and panties and kissing every inch of her skin. Marlene felt as though she was on fire. Calebs was gentle and fascinated with how she responded to his touches. She arched her back and he nuzzled her chest, following her lead as she guided his head to her breast.

"You like this?" he asked after moving his tongue across her chocolate nipple.

"Yes…" Marlene breathed out and he continued lavishing her breasts with attention. When he'd kissed his way down to her navel, she put her hands in his hair.

"Here?" he asked, tracing a finger over her womanhood, noticing her gasp.

"Yes…Please…."

Caleb places soft kisses, listening to every moan Marlene gives him. He obliges when she asks him to use his tongue and fingers. Soon she was crying out her name and shaking.

"I want to do that every day" Caleb whispers as he slides back up to look in her eyes as she recovers from her orgasm.

Marlene grinned as she ran her hands over him. She pushes him on his back and slides down to return the favor. Caleb didn't know what to do at all the sensations she was giving him. It was the greatest thing he'd ever felt.

"Mar, I think...I'm not ready...I…" he stammers, feeling like he was about to explode.

Marlene lets him go and slinks up him, leaving kisses on his stomach and chest as she does.

"I want to be inside you," he tells her gasping as he reaches for her.

"I know but later, I plan on making you let go just like that" she whispers settling over him and kissing him. She holds him and slides down onto him moaning as she did.

"Oh…Wow…That feels…' Caleb mumbles with his eyes closed as Marlene grins and bites her lip.

"You feel so good inside me. Open your eyes, Baby" She coaxes as she starts moving slowly.

Caleb does as she says and is in awe of how beautiful she looks.

"I love you," he tells her.

"And I love you" She returns moving a little more now as Caleb runs his hands up her sides and to her breasts.

Marlene keeps her pace slow and steady as she and Caleb express their love for each other in a new way. When Marlene starts to clench around him and her breathing picks up Caleb flips them over. He thrusts quickly into her as she releases again, and he's unable to hold off any longer. Caleb crashes his lips to her mouth as their cries are swallowed and he releases into her. They hold each other, smiling at each other and leaving soft kissing and murmuring I love you.

"This was the perfect day' he whispers after he pulls out and she snuggles against him.

"Yeah, it was, as long as I'm with you it's a perfect day" she grins and gives her a kiss on the forehead, wrapping his arms around her.

Whatever was coming, she knew everything was going to be okay as long as they were together.

"You know you don't have to come walk me home every night," Tori tells Zeke as she grabs her bag from her desk in the tattoo parlor. It was well after 1 am. It had been so busy that night she'd barely had time to talk to him when he'd brought her dinner which she was thankful for because she would have never eaten.

"If I can spend some time with you walking you to your door then I'll take it."

Zeke had been working long hours. They'd only managed three real dates so far, but he tried to make sure that if he had a spare moment, he let her know he was thinking about her by bringing dinner or hanging out in the tattoo parlor at night if he had free time.

He and Max had attended the Faction council meeting earlier that day and then he'd spent a few hours in the control room. He really likes being able to wind down at the end of the night with Tori.

"Are you always this thoughtful?" Tori smiles as they walk to the front door.

"Night Tori, Night Zeke. Oh Zeke, that last batch of moonshine with the peaches was excellent" Bud calls as he waves and heads to his apartment.

"Glad you liked it! See ya Bud" Zeke tells him as Tori chuckles while she locks the door.

"See you're even spoiling Bud now"

"It's all a part of my master plan to win you over"

Tori feels her heart skip a beat. Zeke had a way with words that just made her feel like melting into a puddle of goo.

"Well, it's working," she says softly.

Zeke leans down and gives her a quick kiss.

"Early day tomorrow?" she asks as they walk toward the side of the compound where her apartment is.

"Not really, probably another late night" Zeke sighs as Tori nods. She knew working closely with the leaders he wasn't privy to share everything he did at work.

"I'm actually about to go on a run if you want to join me"

"A run at this hour?"

"Yeah, when I've had a long night it's how I like to unwind. The training room can be so noisy. It's quiet, it's cooler than running in the heat of the day. It's too cold in the winter so I try to enjoy it now. Just me and the stars"

"Well, if you don't mind some company…" Zeke says with a smile. This was the first time she had invited him to do something, and it felt like a good step in their growing relationship.

"Meet you out by the train tracks in 20 minutes?"

Zeke nods and heads the opposite way to the Pire where his apartment was to change into his running shoes and shorts.

Their run is quiet and as they run a route close to the Dauntless compound along the train tracks and bathed in moonlight. When they get to the compound, it's late but neither one of them seems quite ready for their evening to end.

There are still some people milling about the pit and there is noise coming from the bar where there were pool tables and folks hanging out in the evening. Zeke could tell it wasn't Tori's thing to hang out here, but he was hesitant to invite her back to his place as he was still determined to take things slow with her.

"Race you to my door," Tori tells him quickly and takes off running along the path catching him off guard and giving herself a head start.

Zeke recovers quickly sprinting to catch up with her and dodging a man walking down the path. Even with Tori's head start, they reach her door at the same time, and both fall out laughing as they touch their hands on the door while trying to catch their breath.

Tori looks Zeke up and down. Spending time with him had been fun and carefree. She'd closed herself off after her last relationship and things with Zeke were just easy. She also couldn't deny the strong attraction she felt for him. She had never been one to shy away from sex or intimacy but she's she hadn't given in to those pleasures very often over the last few years.

Zeke moves in and Tori meets him with a passionate kiss. They were both a sweaty mess but neither cared. Tori wrapped her arms around Zeke's neck while his hand palmed her ass and then lifted one of her legs to his hip. As their tongues explored each other Tori let out a whimper as Zeke pressed her back against the door and she felt him against her.

She was shaky when he let her leg down as they now breathed the same air, panting for a reason other than their run.

"I'm going to take a shower," she tells him biting her lip as she turns the doorknob.

Zeke fights back a groan when Tori looks back at him, pulling her shirt over her head.

"You can join me if you want"

Zeke closes the door gently and he hears Tori turn on the water in the shower as he follows the train of clothes to her bedroom.

Tori felt like her heart was beating a mile a minute, she couldn't believe that she was being so bold after she had given herself a stern talking to that she was going to take things slow with Zeke. She couldn't, however, deny the pull that she had to him. She wanted him.

She steps into the shower and stands under the spray making sure to not wet her hair. She grins when she hears the shower door open, and she feels Zeke run his hands down her sides.

Zeke bites his lip and moves Tori against the wall of the shower enjoying the look of heat in her eyes as she moves her hands over his chest. His eyes move down her body.

"You are beyond beautiful," he says as she moves his hand down to her cup her breast. Tori whimpers as he continues to move his eyes up and down her body and rubs his thumb across one dark nipple causing it to pebble.

Zeke moves his hands to trace her tattoo of wings that ran down the valley of her breasts and underneath each of them. Tori felt like her skin was on fire with his light touches. He skims the small constellation tattoo over her heart. She can't take it anymore and grabs his face to kiss her.

They kiss slowly and sensually, letting the shower fill up with steam. Everyone in Dauntless worked out and kept in shape, but Tori felt like she couldn't get enough of running her hands over Zeke's muscles. She took her time feeling the deep ridges of his abs. Zeke smiles against her mouth when she moans as her hands rub up and down the deep v formed at his hip.

"What do you want?" Zeke whispers in her ear as he moves his hands down to massage the flesh of her behind.

"You" Tori groans as he moves his lips to her neck.

Zeke grins and reaches for the soap and washcloth hanging on the rack underneath the showerhead. They take turns washing each other clean while stealing kisses. Tori bites her lip as she moves below his waist with the rag. Eventually, she abandons the washcloth and begins to only use her hand to stroke him.

She was mesmerized. Zeke was the total package, handsome, and his dimples gave him a boyish charm. He wasn't too tall, but his muscular physique was perfect for his body. And his manhood was thick and long, and she found the heat coiling in her belly as she touched him anticipating how he would feel inside her. She enjoyed the moans as Zeke threw his head back while she stroked him, letting the hot water beat down on him as it washed away all the soap suds.

Tori gasps when Zeke moves one hand between her legs, quickly finding her center. They both groan and pant as they pleasure each other in the hot and steamy shower. Zeke moves to lift up her leg to give him better access and Tori leans against the shower wall as she moves her hand faster.

Zeke lets out a deep groan and shutters when he comes and spills all over Tori's hand. She lets out a cry as his fingers drive deep and press inside her.

Tori lets out a laugh as Zeke kisses her again.

"At least we are still in the shower" she teases, and Zeke lets out a belly laugh.

After they get out, Tori throws on a t-shirt and looks expectantly at Zeke as he towels off. She pulls back the covers and he slides in naked behind her pulling her against his chest. Zeke leaves a kiss on her forehead. Yes, he could make love to her tonight, he could have in the shower, but this was new, and he liked that they didn't jump straight to that.
