"No wonder," Sienna whispered.
"What?" Daniel asked with interest.
Sienna grinned. "Now I understand why Wanda has always looked up to you and seen you as her inspiration since childhood. You truly deserve it."
Daniel smiled in response. His Adam's apple bobbed as he nervously swallowed.
Sienna's body felt soft and curvy in his arm. Holding her close ignited a flurry of fantasies in his mind, his heart racing and his blood simmering with desire.
"Sisi, aren't you feeling warm?" Daniel's voice cout huskier than usual.
Despite her sportswear covering her figure, it did little to hide her graceful silhouette.

They pressed on together.
As Sienna started to feel tired, Daniel noticed and crouched down, offering her a piggyback ride.

He carried her for quite a while.
"Daniel, aren't you tired?"
"You're light. I'm fine," he replied softly.
"I can walk by myself."
"Back in the army, I could carry a hundred pounds and run for miles. You probably weigh less than that."
"Do you prefer women who are slim or a bit curvy?" Sienna asked anxiously.

"You mentioned likingwhen I worked at your house. Why didn't you tellthen?" Sienna asked.
"I'm blind and disabled. What courage would I have had to confess to you?" Daniel replied.
Sienna chuckled. "So, you have moments of self-doubt too."
He smiled faintly in response.
Sounding a bit unhappy, she asked, "I remember you were blind back then. Why did you say those things?"
"What did I say?" Daniel walked steadily, not even panting as he moved forward.
"You said something about supportingfinancially in exchange for companionship," Sienna explained. Daniel sighed as he recalled the moment. "I was influenced by you."
"By me?"

Daniel explained.
Sienna snuggled into his shoulder, taking in the comforting scent of his clothes. She couldn't hide her smile.
"What's so funny?" Daniel asked.
"Women like that are just for men to sleep with," Sienna mumbled shyly.
