Lilith

"N-No. T-There is no man. It's just s-strange that a man like you would take a w-women like me."

I angered him. His face and the tone of his words had changed completely from before.

Would he strike me too?..

I was shaking in his hold at the mere thought of his hands that could roughly hit against my skin.

It was hard to look at him like this. My eyes shifted away from him while he held me in place. The tears that had gathered in the corners trickled its way down.

"A man like me? I am well aware of our differences. There is no need for you to tell me that. If that is what you are worried about I remind you I am more than capable of providing you everything you wish for!"

It was all going wrong.

"N-None of that matters to me. I do not want anything. I was s-simply curious what you see in me. I apologize..."

My chest heaved up and down as I tried to control my breaths.

"Is it a habit of yours?"

I did not know what he was referring to. My stutters perhaps?

"You cry so often when you are with me. Are you unhappy..do you not wish to go with me?"

I peered up at him, taken aback from his words. His eyes grew soft with his voice. They searched for an answer.

I bit my lip and shook my head to assure him. It was not that I was unhappy with him. I was afraid I would make his life miserable as it seems that is something I do to those around me. A burden.

"Then that is all there is to it. Your place is here with me. And mine beside yours."

He wiped the tears away with his fingers and left heated touches. His lips were so close nearly touching mine.

"What do I need to do for you to believe me.."

His hands continued to caress my cheeks in a soothing manner. And soon his head leaned beside my neck, leaving soft kisses down towards my shoulder.

I sucked in a sharp breath when his tongue slid across my neck. He sucked so lightly and made his way up to nip my ear.

Luckily, he held me by my waist. I felt as if I would collapse any moment. His touch had me shaking.

My hands reached up towards him trying to push against him. There was no way for me to look from such a distance but I was able to see his head turn slightly towards me.

"This is what you make me do. And that face of yours when I do these things.."

He breathed out as if he tried to hold something back.

"I intended to wait and have you rest today. But you give me no choice."

And before I realized what he meant he turned my head and ravished my lips with his. His mouth opened and his tongue demanded for me to respond to him.

A little move of his fingers near my chest was enough for me to gasp and allow him entrance.

His tongue moved eagerly inside, having me shut my eyes tightly. I tried to give in to what he asked for timidly. My slight push returned as a firm pull. The constant seeking of dominance inside me left me out of breath.

We parted our lips and our chest heaved up and down. With enough time, he carried me up easily in his arms and laid me over on the bed.

I was now looking up at him and his body leaned over me. His head tilted to the left as he observed me intently. That had me tighten my hands together. My hands were kept close against my chest but he removed them out of the way.

His fingers traced above the thin linen above my breasts. And it was as if my body was responding. They were tingling.

His warm hands pushed the long gown up to my thighs and the cool air reached deep between my legs. Naturally, I closed my legs together but it was as if he knew it would happen. He gripped them tightly and slowly pulled my underclothes.

"K-Khael..it is late. T-Tomorrow..wait. W-We can't."

He ignored my words and lifted me up by the waist to pull them down. The thin cloth that covered my most vulnerable area was now slipping past my legs.

The opening of my gown was now all ruffled down my shoulder and nearly presenting my breasts.

I felt my cheeks heated and I turned away quickly. I was trapped beneath him not knowing what to do. But it seemed as if that was his intention. He continued to watch me troubled as he continued to touch me, having me his way.

My chest heaved up and down as I tried to catch my breath from his long kisses. My lips felt swollen from his constant sucks and bites on them.

"Uh..ah. J-Just a second."

I peered up at him. There was no smile or anything. He held no expression and it confused me because they were so different from how he touched me.

His hands slid down my chest, unbuttoning my gown. My breasts were bare in front of him now holding all his attention. His wandering eyes soon came back to mine as he held my chin.

His thumb, then his index fingers pushed past my lips and swarmed its way into my mouth.

The lights in our room flickered to our silence.

When his fingers went in too far it had me coughing. And with his fingers covered in my saliva, he circled my buds.

I couldn't stand how his eyes never left me as he did these things to me. They looked down at me with such dark eyes.

Why...Why is he doing such vulgar things to me? Things I can't bear to speak of. Shameful things.

He squeezed them harder in between his fingers.

"Ah!"

I was shaking even as I covered my mouth, wiping my wet lips.

"Don't cover yourself. I'll hear and see all of you tonight."
