A Free Love Story by Sky Taylor

Who Chopped Down the Family Tree?

 

"Ruben, I need your help," Cora eased out, retching inwardly with guilt over the intense well of passion that she felt for her cousin.  "I've been in love with you since I can remember."

 

For years she had fought an attraction to her cousin, disturbed with herself for allowing her thoughts to run so rampant.   And with Ruben's recent advancement towards her, it was getting more and more difficult to fight her desires.

 

She supposed it was common, cousins sharing intimacy.  And in some countries, marriage was commonplace among cousins.  However, she wasn't comfortable with these desires and needed Ruben's help in ridding her of the great curse.  She didn't think she could bear not ever seeing him again, but that was perhaps the best solution.

 

"Of course you love me, Cora," Ruben rebounded.  "We're cousins."

 

Her statement had quickened his senses, his response an effort to coax her into expounding on the type of love she felt for him.  He needed clarity before he shared his secret.

 

For weeks he had delivered subtle hints here and there, hoping to stoke a rod of passion within her.  Had his plan worked?

 

"No, you don't understand," she assured, drawing the lace hanky back to her nose. It was with great effort that she held back her wall of tears.  "It's....more than love."

 

Ruben lifted his brows and in a soft tone, she uncomfortably relayed, "It's passion."

 

That did it - the wall was broken and tears suddenly exploded, her body trembling as he drew her to him.

 

"Cupcake, it's okay," he assured, running a hand over the back of her head, the texture of her dark hair like silk to his rough hands.  "I feel the same about you."

 

Cora's tears immediately ceased and she jerked back her head to study her cousin's handsome face.  "Oh Ruben!  What are we to do?  What's to become of us!"
