Damien grabs my wrist before pulling me on his lap, one leg on either side of him. I feel him press my ankles into his side and I know he is going to stand. His arms wrap around my waist and I lean into him, placing my head on his chest. He stands and starts walking up the stairs.
I go limp against him; I feel his fingers run up my spine and I wrap my arms around his neck tighter. I can feel my tears running down my face and onto his chest as I cry silently, hoping it goes unnoticed. Damien walks us into his room, looking over his shoulder I see that I am leaving a blood trail. I chuckle slightly amused that I destroyed his immaculate house.
“What?” He says, kissing the side of my face. I shake my head. I feel Layla resting and she feels quite relaxed compared to how angry we both were. Damien flicks on the bathroom light. And I go to unwrap my legs from his waist, but he just grabs my leg with his hand, placing it back on his hip. I hear the familiar keypad button noises as he starts the shower and I hear the sounds of running water. Damien walks over to the shower stepping under the stream and I feel his hand running up and down my back as he washes my blood off.
I lean back slightly, wetting my hair and washing my face when I open my eyes. Damien is staring at me. “I never wanted to hurt you Lily” He says and I can see the sadness in his eyes as he pulls me closer, his nose going to the crook of my neck inhaling my scent.
“Please don’t leave me” He says so softly I almost didn’t hear it. I feel bad for attacking him, feel bad for not hearing him out. But most of all, I just feel overwhelming sadness. My mate is going to have a baby with someone else. I run my fingers through his hair, making him look up. His grip on my waist is getting tighter. I lean in and watch his eyes go wide when I press my lips to his softly. He hesitates, eyeing me suspiciously before I kiss him harder, my tongue brushing his bottom lip before I suck it into my mouth.
He moans before kissing me back, his tongue fighting mine for dominance as I feel myself pressed into the shower wall. His hands ran over my body, caressing every inch of me. I feel his erection pressing into me and I push down on it. Suddenly wanting him inside me. Damien freezes, pulling back. He shakes his head.
“What?” I ask when he doesn’t react to me wanting him. I suddenly feel slightly rejected. Isn’t this what he wanted?
“I am not taking your virginity when you are upset. That’s the only reason you want me right now, Lily. To feel something, anything other than your emotional pain” He says, grabbing my face with his hands. His eyes search mine before I feel him kiss my lips softly before pulling away.
“I want you, I want you now” I tell him but he shakes his head.
“Not while you’re emotional, it’s not right Lily” I feel tears brim in my eyes at him rejecting me and suddenly feel embarrassed. I unwrap my legs from around his waist and slide to the floor, my feet touching the tiles. I turn away from him. When I feel his arms wrap around my waist, pulling me against him, his warmth seeping into me.
“Tomorrow if you still want to,” He says below my ear. I nod, not really knowing what to say. Maybe he wants to be with Tabitha? But I feel Layla stir at my thoughts, swirling in my head before speaking.
“It’s not that, Lily. Darian said Damien doesn’t want you to wake up and regret sleeping with him” She tells me.
“Can you hear him now?” She nods.
“Yeah, loud and clear, he isn’t happy with Damien. Now that I can hear him, he won’t shut up. I may need to take back control to rip out his bloody tongue” She tells me, making me chuckle.
“What’s so funny?” Asks Damien.
“Nothing, Layla can hear your wolf, now” I tell him.
“Yeah, sorry about that. He has been confessing his love. No wonder she is getting annoyed with him.” He replies.
I wash myself and Damien washes my hair, when I get out my wounds are no longer bleeding. I dry myself and Damien walks into the closet before walking out with a pair of shorts hanging low on his hips. He hands me one of his shirts and I slip it on. Damien then climbs in bed, pulling the sheets back and patting my side of the bed. I climb in and he pulls me to him, so I am flush against his body.
I wriggle and can feel his erection pressing into my back. Before I hear him whisper.
“Don’t keep wiggling my self-control isn’t that good, Lily” He tells me before kissing just below my ear. I feel his arms tighten and I relax against him, giving into exhaustion.
Lily POV
Waking up the next morning, I find my entire body aching like I just ran a marathon. My muscles ached, my skin burning where my skin was slowly healing. Damien’s warm skin pressing into my back, spreading delightful tingles everywhere his skin touched. Rolling over, I try to get up, his arm that’s draped over me pulls me closer, rolling me over to face him.
“Where are you going?” His husky voice in the crook of my neck as he inhaled deeply. I could feel his stubble tickling my neck and shoulder and cringed at the feeling, making him deliberately rub his face in the crook of my neck.
“Stop, Damien” I cringe from the feel of his stubble irritating my skin and his warm breath on my neck causing goosebumps to rise on my skin. Placing my hand on his cheek and trying to pry it away from neck. He chuckles at my attempt, at trying to push him away, before I feel his weight above me as he leans over me. A seductive smile on his lips as he looks down at me, my stomach clenches under his intense gaze.
He kisses my lips softly, his knee going between my legs pushing them apart and I realise the only thing I am wearing is his shirt as he moves between my legs. I can feel his erection pressing against my thigh.
My breathing becomes heavier as he nips at my skin. “Someones in a good mood this morning” I comment as his lips move lower to my shoulder. “Hmmm” he mumbles against my neck.
Grabbing his face, I pull on him and bring his lips back to mine as they hungrily devour mine, his tongue fighting against mine as it moves against my own. I moan into his mouth and I feel his cock twitch against my leg.
Gripping the hem of the shirt he lifts it up, pulling it over my head before I hear him growl , his lips moving to my breast before he bites down on my nipple. I cry out at the sudden pain before I feel his tongue trace over it, soothing the sting. His lips moving south as he moves lower, kissing my belly before I feel him nip at my hip. I moan at the feel of his fiery tongue sucking on my skin, before I hear the door downstairs open, hitting into the wall. I jump at the unexpected noise and I feel Damien stiffen before he growls.
