Evangeline’s POV
.
The thing I was scared and nervous of was happening. I was sitting at the edge of the bed while our room was decorated with flowers and scented candles. My heart was pounding loudly. I wouldn’t be surprised if I end up getting a heart attack.
‘Ivory, you there?’
‘I am. It’s just I’m so excited for tonight.’
‘Really? Did you forget that he’s my sister’s mate too? We are only a substitute. Remember that.’
‘In that case we have to make our own place in his life. I won’t mind if I won’t be his first. All I know is that I want to be his last.’
‘Wow! I didn’t know you’re a philosopher.’, I said in a sarcastic way and added. “Do remember that we are mad at him.” That’s the moment Daniel entered the room.
His eyes immediately held mine and we continued to stare at each other. His gaze scanned my body from head to the toe. It felt like he was touching me without using his hand on my body. I gripped the sheets under me to control my heart beat.
He broke the staring game and walked toward the wardrobe. Without warning he started unbuttoning his shirts, acting like I wasn’t in the room at all. I wanted to tell him to change in the washroom but then I remembered what he said earlier?
I couldn’t explain my feeling at that moment. I never felt like that before. Is that because of Ivory or because of mate bond, I was feeling horny. I shook my head to clear my mind and had to press my legs together to control my need.
At the same time, I saw him turning toward him in tension.
Now what?, I furrowed my eyes when he looked tense.
“Angel”, He called my name. I wouldn’t lie but I fell in love with my name every time he called my name.
“Huhh?”
“I can smell your arousal.”, It took me a while to realize what he just said. I knew by that time my cheeks would have turned red because of embarrassment. I bit my lips nervously and started looking at the ground to avoid eye contact.
Even knowing what I was feeling, he dropped his shirt on the floor, making me tense a little more than before. I looked at him angrily while he just smirked. It seemed like he was enjoying my state of mind. I held my breath as he unbuttoned his trouser.
Call me shameless but I didn’t look away and kept staring at the most handsome and sexiest person in my world, changing his clothes in front of me. But to tease me more he grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist and then opened his trouser. I wanted to wipe the stupid smirk which was on his lips constantly. He then stepped in the washroom.
Once he left, I went near his wardrobe and took out one of his clothes to change my gown in frustration. I opened the zip of my gown and let it flow from my shoulder to feet and the moment it touched the floor. I heard the sound of the door open. I wanted to run from there and hide somewhere but NOPE! A part of me was frustrated and angry and she wanted to take revenge. I stood there boldly in my lingeries and looked at him innocently. I tried not to shiver, observing the hunger in his greedy eyes. I stepped out my legs from the gown which was near my feet and picked his t-shirt to wear.
I could smell the tension in the air but I acted as I was unaware about it.
‘Mate is aroused.’
I mentally laughed when I came to know about his state of mind.
‘Now, this serve you right, Mr. Arrogant.’, Thinking that I wore his shorts. I looked at him and smirked.
TIT for TAT.
I reached near the bed and laid on it acting to sleep but sleep was far away from my eyes. A lot of things were going on in my mind.
Whether he would sleep on the bed or on the couch just like yesterday?
I really want him to choose the first option. Not because of any sexual tension but because I knew he couldn’t sleep comfortably on the couch.
After a while, I felt that the other side of the bed dug in. I smiled knowing he was finally here and started trying my best to sleep but couldn’t.
“Fuck, this!”, I heard him cursing and out of nowhere I was pulled forcefully toward the other side of the bed. I opened my eyes in shock and was about to ask Daniel, the reason behind his behavior but my voice got coughed in my throat when I was kissed again without warning. Though I was surprised, I didn’t hold myself back and kissed him back with the same passion. His arms wrapped around me while my hands snaked around his neck, one hand going into his thick hair as our mouth molded into an intense passion of assertion for each other.
Fingers digging into flesh and hands tugging the hairs, we were lost into a bubble of desire and possession. I pulled him as much closer as I could, there wasn’t even an inch of space between us. Waves of pleasure ran down my entire being when our tongue joined the other. My moans were desperate when his groans just intensified the tug in my lower stomach.
Seeming to losing his control, his hand sneaked to my back and cupped my ass, pulling me closer if possible.
“My Angel!”, He groaned as his hand roamed around my body. “You’re driving me fucking crazy!”
Even if I didn’t want to pull away, my lungs gave up. Detaching my lips from his, I rested my forehead against his, closing my eyes I took erratic breaths. My heart was pounding loudly in my chest.
When sense started to kick back into my head, I realized that he would have been my sister’s husband if she wouldn’t have ran away from her wedding and how easy it was for him to replace her with me for the sake of his family reputation.
He could do the same in the future, couldn’t he? And for some reason, I didn’t like that fact.
We stayed that way until I broke the silence.
“You would have done the same with my sister if you would have married her?”
