Lily
”It’s hard to talk with your tongue in my mouth.” His words made me roll my eyes but I still pressed my mouth to his. Silencing him. I wasn’t even sure what I was doing , but the thought had been niggling at me since I had opened my eyes in the early morning sunlight and it had kept niggling all the way through my workout.
Maybe if I had the control.
It seemed comical to even ask someone like Stefano to give up his control to me, he was the epitome of an alpha male and yet I couldn’t seem to shake the idea that maybe I could get over my fears , if I could touch him
Instead of him touching me.
My first kiss was barely there as I waited for him to do what I knew he must want to. Reach for me, open my lips with his. Force me against his body in a way that made me tremble with equal measures of fear and need.
No matter what had happened to me I was still a woman with needs. My body wanted to be touched and caressed unfortunately for me my brain didn’t quite get it.
So maybe this was the way.
Gently I placed my hand on his chest , fingers splayed as I leant over him and deepened the kiss. My tongue tracing the seam of his closed mouth.
He made a noise in the back of his throat when the tip of my tongue touched his and a fine trembling began in his arms. I knew he wanted to touch me and badly but he didn’t move a muscle to do it, instead staying still with only the lightest touches of his tongue and lips against mine. It was me that deepened the kiss further, a small sound escaping into his mouth and my hand trailed down his naked chest and then back up again.
Part of me wanted to see what his wash hard body felt against my naked skin. Breaking away the kiss I straightened and our eyes met. His never left my face as I pulled my sweaty tank top off over my head. Tossing it onto the floor.
His eyes didn’t dart downward. They never left my eyes and suddenly I felt self conscious. As if he could see the look of uncertainty that swept over me his lips parted and he sighed. “Don’t look at me like that Lils. If I take my eyes off your face I will want to touch.” His voice was husky.
“Touch me like this?” New bravery crept into my voice as I brushed my finger over one of his n*****s. Narrowing in on the pink point. “Yes.” He breathed. The trembling in his arms had increased.
“Or like this?” Leaning forward I brushed my lips against his chest. And he jolted in response.
“La Madonna Lils.” I felt him jerk against my ass. “Yes I want to touch you like that, to kiss you like that. This is torture. Sweet beautiful torture.”
I paused. “I can stop.”
“Don’t you dare.” He growled.
Giggling I reached for his hand, bringing his fingers to my lips I kissed each knuckle in turn. How much violence had these hands fished out? Probably more then I could ever compute but all I saw when I looked at his hands was his protecting me.
“I…” I know what I wanted to try next , I just wasn’t sure I could actually do it.
“Baby girl we will do what ever you want to do” he laced my fingers with his, drawing me down to his lips gently. “You are in charge here.”
My breasts crushed against his as I kissed him. He was being gentle with me, this man. This killer. And I didn’t panic . My brain behaved at the feel of him hard and solid under me.
And it felt good.
“Lils god.” His eyes darkened as I straightened again, this time guiding his hand to my breast. I probably should have started somewhere else but I was feeling brave. I wanted his hand on me. “Are you sure?”
“Touch me Stefano.”
The pad of his thumb brushed over my n****e and for a second I froze. I had expected the panic to overwhelm me like it had last night but instead my back arched. “Stefano.”
“Yes Lily?” Another brush of his thumb and my body trembled with pent up need. Why was he teasing me?
“Touch me.”
He chuckled at my commanding tone, which wasn’t very commanding at all but his whole hand moved. Covering my breast, my own hand guiding it as he squeezed the bound.
And it was ok. It didn’t freak me out to have him touch me like I thought it would. In fact it felt nice.
Better then nice.
“Eyes on me Lily.” His own voice was thick, his breathing heavier then usual. I raised my eyes to him questioningly. “I need to be able to see your face , I need to make sure you are ok with this.”
“I’m ok with this.” I mouthed. And I was , I wasn’t quite ready to go much further then this but I was ok with this. With his hands on my breast. “You can Touch…”
His free hand slipped behind my neck, cradling my head in his palm as he pulled me down to him.
“I am fine just doing this Lily.” His lips skimmed over mine. “There’s no need to rush.” And then his tongue was in my mouth and I forgot everything but the feel of him.
Horrible person or not , I needed him to wake my body up. He was the only one who could possibly make me feel whole again.
When things were back to normal, when Alice was safe and I was able to return to my life I would say good bye and never touch him again.
I just couldn’t do it now.
Now I needed him.
