She looked like she was about to explode, which I found hilarious until she gut punched me. “Hey, what was that for?” I was barely keeping myself standing. Couldn’t have my woman see me being so weak, but damn she packs a punch in more ways than one. “It doesn’t matter what you do; you’re still not going.”
“I’ve done what I came here to do; now I’m leaving.” She turned to walk away as if she meant to do that shit now, and I grabbed her—big mistake.
She went into fight mode while my mind and body were on another course entirely. As soon as I grabbed her and pulled her back into my chest, her ass hit my cock, which was already semi-hard. It seems that that’s all it took for all rational thought to fly out the window for me.
Turning her in my arms, I read the look in her eyes before taking her lips under mine. Just like before, I went up in flames. It felt like I wasn’t even breathing as I fed on her tongue and pressed her harder against me. My hands found her ass and lifted her until she was cradling my growing cock between her thighs, and it was only because we were out in the open and the fact that we’d only just met that I fought to reel it in.
I put her back on her feet but didn’t let her go as I took a few last nibbles of her lips. “You’re not going, baby.” The words weren’t as harsh or forceful as before, but they held the same weight.
“You can’t stop me.” I doubt she realized that she was following my lips with hers because I was teasing her now, or what that did to me.
I’m very well aware that because of the trauma of what she’d been through, intimacy of any kind might be hard for her to deal with. Still, she wasn’t giving off that vibe in my arms, something I was eternally grateful for because I don’t know how much time I can give her before taking her to my bed. “There’s no way off the island. No one here will allow you to leave without my say-so.”
That one brought her back to earth, and she pulled her lips away. I didn’t mind though; she’d already shown me that she wasn’t afraid of me getting close. I’m sure she could feel the length and weight of my cock as it pressed into her pussy, but she didn’t seem to be negatively affected by the contact.
“What do you mean? Your say-so?”
“They all know that I claimed you.” Her eyes widened, and for the first time since I met her, she looked shocked. Then surprise-surprise, she blushed and looked away shyly. That lasted for all of two seconds before she was back to her shit again.
“Ssang-nom!” No sooner had the words left her lips than I was feeding on them again.
“I warned you.” This time the kiss was softer, more tender. I felt like I could take my time because I wasn’t afraid of spooking her or of her pulling away. Holding her face in my hands, I held her still in place as I fed on her lips, hoping that she could feel some of what I was beginning to feel for her.
My biggest fear is that she’d misinterpret my intentions and think I was just trying to use her because of her past. So though I was moving kinda fast, I knew of no other way to get it through to her than to show her.
When I lifted my head because we both needed to breathe, the look of wonder on her face touched something warm and soft inside me, and as I watched her face go from pleasure to confusion and then a touch of sorrow, I made a silent vow to myself, that from this day forward I’d stand between her and whatever comes.
“Pretty Roxana!” I brushed my thumb along her cheek before taking her hand again to continue our walk. “What is it that you want from me? Do you think I’m stupid? You think I don’t know what you think of me?”
“What’re you talking about?”
“I’m talking about you thinking I’m an easy fuck because of my past.” The words were ugly and meant to inflict pain, but the look in her eyes broke my heart. Had anyone of the people who’d hurt her been standing here, I would’ve ripped their throat out with my teeth.
Since that wasn’t a possibility, I did the next best thing. I gripped her nape firmly and pulled her face into my chest. “One day, you’re going to hate that you said those words to me. One day, hopefully soon, you’re going to see how wrong you are about me.” I kissed the top of her head as she stood silently stiff against me, and I had to fight back raw emotion as it threatened.
