Chapter 473 -
~CLARA~
It felt like a dream. It was hard to believe that Alaric was in my room right now. I was so close to giving up on him, and somehow, he found a way to stop me before I could convince myself to let go. He was like a drug that I couldn't get rid of, one that I didn't want to let go of.
"I should have let you into that room with me on the full moon," he whispers as he moves into me for a kiss.
Why did he suddenly have regrets about that night? I was the one completely disappointed with my own actions for pushing him against his will. I was happy that he couldn't remember anything about that night, but now I wondered if he was speaking about something else.
The second his lips touched mine, all thoughts flew out of my head.
"Your lips are the only ones I crave, Clara." He whispers as he hungrily kisses me with so much passion that I feel it all the way to my toes. "You have no idea how hard it's been for me to stay away from you. Even when my brother had you, even then, I've always wanted you. It just took me too long to recognize my own feelings."
He truly wanted me even then?
His mouth moves to my breasts, and I gasp when he covers my nipple. It felt electric even though I had my nightgown on. "I remember not being able to sleep every time he brought you home. I never understood why it bothered me back then. But it would kill me inside, wondering if he was touching you in his room. I knew my brother's reputation. I always wondered if he was taking good care of you. . . If he was hurting you. Thoughts of you always invaded my mind."
His words are a major turn-on. It had my body responding in a way that was alarming. I could feel myself grow wet between my legs, almost like it was preparing itself for him and only him.
I couldn't believe it. All this time I never knew that it bothered him so much that Carter took me to his room while we were dating.
We never did anything. Carter never wanted to.
"I can smell your arousal." He growls as his mouth moves to my stomach. "It's unlike any scent I've ever experienced. It makes me upset to think that someone other than me got the chance to smell something so fucking precious."
I gasp.
Since when has he ever been this open with me? How sure was I that this wasn't a dream? It was difficult for me to believe that this was true. Maybe I should pinch myself to confirm. If I woke up and realized it wasn't real, I knew I would probably cry for an entire day because of it.
"Please tell me this is real," I beg. "Please tell me you're really here and saying all of these things to me. I don't want to wake up if this is a dream. I want to remain here with this side of you, a side of you that I've never ever seen before, at least not because of me."
I've seen him act sweet around Nicole before; that was when he was trying his best to make their marriage work. He wasn't like that around her anymore, at least not in front of me.
For the first time in a long time, he smiles; it's a smile so bright that it is almost blinding. I had to take a moment to catch my breath. Watching him, with his gaze on me as he freely smiled, was everything to a girl like me. I could watch him like this for the rest of my life.
He slowly pulls my nightgown up to expose my bare pussy. I gasp when He spreads my lips with his fingers before he takes a soft lick down there. My ass flies off the bed at the touch of his tongue. It was hot and soft and I could hardly feel my thighs.
"Do you still think it's a dream?" He asks me with another one of those blinding smiles. I can't breathe, not when he looks at me like that. I've always wanted to be the one to make him happy, and for once, I could see that dream being fulfilled.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
I shook my head. No, this couldn't be a dream; a dream wouldn't feel this good, this had to be real.
I feel my eyes roll back in my head as he places his finger inside of me. At the same time, he sucks on me down there.
It feels so good, so good that I can't even speak.
"Your taste. . . I know I've told you this before, but Clara, you really have no idea what I would give up to have you like this for the rest of my life. I would give my entire fortune for just one taste of you. You really have no idea just what you do to me."
Hearing Alaric admit these things to me was truly like a dream come true for me. I've wished for his attention for a long time now. I've wished for this exact moment, but something screamed at me in my mind that I was close to losing him even before I had a chance to have him. I know it was crazy to think this at a time like this, but for some reason, my body seemed to know something that I didn't know yet.
Still, I was determined to enjoy every second of tonight. I wasn't going to stop him. Tonight, my mind, body, and soul would belong to Alaric and only him.
