Dark Cravings

30.

JULIAN'S POV:

I slid between the blanket and the bed, reaching out to close the lamp on nightstand by my side.

As I laid my back on the pillow, a thought crossed my head, making me whisper to myself.

"Heaven.. "

I need to check on her.

My body tensed up as I recall the sight of her in the rain, chirping like a bird, the melodies of her heart, igniting a strange flame through the foundation of my walls.

I pushed the the blanket aside, walking upto my door. Maybe the vines of her enchantment have already made their way through my barren walls and maybe, it's too beautiful to try and pull them off.

Glancing over at the door of her room, I placed a knock on it deciding to open it straight away.

My eyes immediately met hers, sitting on her bed with a towel wrapped loosely around her chest, plunging down just enough and not enough. Her legs parted, being traced over by her fingers that paused right that moment when the sight of me was clear to her as I took a step inside.

She shivered in surprise, holding her hand up to her chest in a fist as she closed shut her legs with eyes wide like a doll.

Maybe I caught her thinking of this wedding night. I can see, she's been thinking a lot.

"I- Julian... " she adjusted her towel hastily that made the loose tuck on the side come off.

Did I sign a contract saying I shall never dare to express any possession over her?

Yes.

Do I want to touch her, feel her every inch and make her mine right now?

Fuck yes.

"I wasn't doing that -" she tried defending herself like she does, every time she's caught.

"You began with the wedding night quite early, I see. " I teased, knowing well she was already embarrassed as I closed the door shut behind me.

How I'd watch her squirm in that towel in embarrassment for hours and be amazed by every single move she makes that drags me closer to her.

"No! I did not... I mean, you didn't knock. " she complained. Her breath synced with every step I took towards her even if her eyes looked away, her body knew the vibrations of it.

The tension between us thickened, coming out like steam when I stood right in front of her bed, watching her skin glow with shower mists.

"You were too busy to hear, Sweetheart. "

It was as if my voice was enough to make her reach the edge of satisfaction by the way she blushed and shivered.

I leaned closer, placing my hands on the either side of her thighs on the bed with my face just an inch away from her red lips.

"That night in the club.. " I hinted and her eyes grew wide like she didn't expect me saying it. "... we started something that was left hanging. "

Just how fast her breath rose in a moment and she held the bedsheet in her fist. I couldn't take my eye's off that face that said everything she was thinking of. Through that blush with a soft smirk on her lips and I knew she felt it too. Her legs twisted in denial but who could fight the lust of one's heart?

"And.. What about the contract? " she whispered softly lowering her eyes, shyly. This sight of hers is making me want to grab onto that face and conquer this teasing distance between our lips.
