Kayla
I held completely still as he reached closer to me. The closer he got, the more his scent consumed my thoughts and my body. His face was too close to mine, uncomfortably close.
I had trouble focusing on his eyes because my wretched mind was focused on his huge plump lips and a sweet sensation spread through my body.
I was melting in a pool of heat by the nearness of him, the power that rolled off him intermixed with the strength in his coiled muscles.
My breath caught in my throat as he lowered himself on the bed, his amber eyes were glimmering like twin suns, capturing the warmth of dawn and the whispers of twilight. I tried not to get lost in them but my body had a mind of its own especially when he was this close to me. My breath got stuck in my throat and I lost the ability to think clearly with the way he was looking at me. The room was quiet except for the sound of our hearts pounding, the rhythm mingling, and creating music in my ear.
I saw him exhale softly, it was subtle and I would have barely noticed it if not for my eyes that were trained on his shoulders that sagged just a millimeter downward.
Then in a clipped tone, he turned around abruptly and went to the other side of the bed.
” It is late, I should sleep.”
He added and walked toward the wardrobe. He opened it and there I saw a hundred or so pajamas, shorts, boxers, and so on.
” Close your eyes, or keep them open if you want to”
“Huh?”
I managed to mutter and just like that the handsome Alpha Asher removed the towel from his waist as it gently pooled down at his feet. And, I was not so stupid enough to close my eyes. His back was facing me and I found the most perfect ass I had ever seen in my life. Not that I had seen many to begin with. But damn those two buns were as kissable as his sweet lips.
How could someone be so goddamn perfect was beyond me?
I took in lungfuls of air to calm the rapid beating of my heart against my chest. And I heard the slightest chuckle escape Asher’s mouth as if I had exactly given him what he expected.
The awesome view did not last more than a few seconds before he pulled up his boxers and began walking toward the bed.
“What are you trying to do?” I said and crouched back still holding the sheets.
” I am tired and want to sleep,” He said, as he neared the bed and sat on it, making the delicious scent of his after-shower waft toward me.
” I hope you’re not planning on sleeping in the same bed with me,” I mumbled after catching my breath again.
” This is my bed, and I want to sleep,” He said, as he got in the bed and played with the cushion a bit so that he had them to his liking.
Then he plonked his sexy ass on it and looked at me,” Can I have the sheets?”
I realized that I had gathered all in my hands so I nodded and let go of all.
He looked at me with an amusing smile, took the sheets, and settled down on the bed. He lay down on the bed and closed his eyes, placing his hand over his forehead.
And, I just blinked, uncertain of what to do. Alpha Asher just fell asleep in his bed, inches away from me.
I watched his face, the way his chest slightly rose and fell with every breath he took. I knew there was no way I would be able to get any sleep with him right next to me looking like an enticing beast.
I inhaled more of his scents and my senses clouded with desire, I rested my eyes on his lips, though his body heat was enough to not give me the chills, something else made me give shivers. I felt a growing urge building in the pit of my stomach, and I wanted nothing more than to press my lips to his and have that strong body of his pinned firmly on the bed while his lips and hands did wonders to my body. I felt turned on. This man’s scent was capable of driving any woman crazy, he was simply desirable.
I slowly crouched near him and bent over, holding myself above his face careful to not let my hair tickle him. And then his eyes flew open.
In the blink of an eye, he had caught my hand, turned around, and pinned me down on the bed. I looked at him with wide eyes as I saw the color of his eyes darken with a rich shade of golden with flecks of amber that made him look absolutely gorgeous.
” Control yourself, Kayla.” His voice was breathless, his breathing became more labored, and in a whisper, with his lips at the surface of mine. “I can smell your arousal.”
A deep blush rose up my cheek, and my nipples went hard due to our contact and nearness and he obviously could see them straining through the lacy fabric. I clamped my thighs together as my arousal was making it loud and clear just how much I wanted him to bury his mouth in them.
He lowered just a little, letting his lips graze my ears. The touch sent sparks tingling down my body as it came alive like livewire. His large hands caressed my sides. I released a moan, feeling Asher’s lips on the crook of my neck. He began to kiss it and suck it. I was melting like a wax candle at the caress of this huge, devious Alpha. My entire body trembled against his as I felt intense pleasure in my body, and my need for him kept growing. I wanted him to devour me, to make love to me. To leave me high and dry as his mouth explored every corner of my body.
” You’re beautiful, Kayla.” His voice became a husky, erotic whisper and his eyes were completely dark with raw desire embedded in them, and he wasted no time as his lips came crashing into mine.
