Healing Hands

by Hoy, E. S

  Chapter 7 Sophie never got as far as the ladies as Duncan had blocked her way” Sophie is it?” Duncan shook her hand firmly “well you are a find aren't you the boy done good, strange I recognise you, don't know why but your face is so familiar what’s your surname?”

  Sophie panicked and diverted the questioning back to him and avoided answering but Duncan proceeded to grill her, where she was born what uni she attended, but he couldn't place her at all it was beginning to annoy him until he saw his baby brother marching over to rescue her from his evil clutches, he walked away before he got close enough to rip his head off, Duncan went outside for a cigarette and then it came to him where he had seen her, his roommate in Oxford had become a millionaire the bastard that was Jasper Bonavia was a devious bastard and always showing off, he kept in touch for a while after they graduated, both into the same parties and drugs he still couldn’t stand the bloke though. Duncan had followed Jaspers tumultuous love life with amusement, however he was aware of Jaspers darker side and had a lot of sympathy for the girl who he knew had almost died trying to escape his clutches, Jasper used to send pics to all his mates of his fetish games and some of the photos were disgusting not his thing at all, he was sure the Sophie he had seen in the pictures had been blonde but he would check it out later, Jasper was offering a reward for her whereabouts and Duncan needed money but didn’t want this frail beauty to be hurt anymore, an idea formed the money could get him out of the dark hole he was in with some old acquaintances, so once he was certain it was her he would act fast, it was also possible he could do his baby brother a favour at the same time, he knew things Marcus could use that could get Jasper off their backs for good so maybe he could kill two birds with one stone!. Marcus checked she was OK and gave his brother a warning glance he led Sophie back to the table ready for the speeches. Marcus thought Sophie looked a bit pale and shaken after her encounter but no matter how hard he questioned her she insisted Duncan had not said anything untoward so he let it go. The speeches dragged on but once they were finished the lights dimmed and the DJ started the music for the first dance, the happy couple looked divine together, Sophie had not yet been introduced and was worried Beatrice was deliberately avoiding her, when others joined them on the dance floor Marcus asked Sophie for a dance and they held each other lightly and glided around the room as if they had danced together for years, Don cut in for one dance then Marcus claimed her back, as their bodies got closer together and the music went on she inhaled his musky scent and rested her cheek against his shoulder she was exhausted and was glad they were staying at a hotel tonight she would not make it home without collapsing, last nights lack of sleep was catching her up. Sophie listened to him singing along to the music and looked up into his eyes he was so caught up in the song he didn't notice her watching, when he did he blushed “oops love a bit of George Michael “she smiled he couldn't resist and he closed his mouth over hers they swayed and kissed for the duration of the song tongues dancing cautiously together licking and tasting each other over and over, Sophie was aware of his hardness and pressed herself closer to him loving the fact she could affect him so deeply. He pulled away and held her face in his hands “Sophie I really want to make love to you tonight I don't want to presume just because you respond to my kisses that means you are ready for this tell me sweetheart truthfully if you want me as much as I want you” Sophie pressed her finger to his mouth “Ssh I am ready I have been ready since you pulled me off the sand 2 weeks ago I can't say what will happen tonight as I have not been close to anyone since him” he cut her off then “one step at a time and baby any time you need to stop then we do I would wait forever for your touch as it means so much more than I ever would have imagined” they grasped each other and were about to kiss again when a vision in white stepped in to their bubble it was his sister dragging her new husband behind her “hey bro when are you going to say hi its my wedding and my own brother has avoided me all day” she looked petulantly at him,” look I know you think I am going to be difficult cause of Liv” she cast her eyes down sadly then faced him again, “I love you fool so anyone who makes you as happy as I've seen you today is good enough for me” she hugged him roughly then turned to look warmly at Sophie “ Hi Sophie I am Beatrice this is my husband Henry and we are delighted you came with Marcus today, mum loves you already so that’s a start” she shook my hand then moved in for a peck on the cheek “you really are lovely to look at every man in this room has had a peep at you behind their wives back” she giggled and poked Henry in the side “ I hope you haven't though my dear its only been 3 hrs. since you said I do” she giggled again “anyway you two we are honeymooning for 2 weeks but we will be over for a visit soon I want to get to know this one Marcus it looks like she may become a permanent fixture”

  The happy couple bounced away and they were left open mouthed “that’s my sister no edit button” they laughed then made their way outside and asked for the car to be brought round, Duncan watched from the doorway, he watched them drive away very pleased with his nights work anxious to get back to check out those pics and satisfy his curiosity and put his little plan in to action.

  Chapter 8 The drive to the hotel was short thankfully and Marcus spent the journey with his hand clamped on her thigh and he was stroking it reassuringly at every opportunity, he felt like a 16 year old on a first date he had purchased condoms when he was in the pharmacy at the hospital earlier in the week, he didn't want their first time to involve an awkward conversation about blood tests and birth control. He had such a mixed range of emotions floating around his brain on one side desperate to love her the other aware of how restrained he needed to be and also he was totally unsure how he would react seeing her naked. From their discussions he knew the worst scars were yet to be found and he needed to be prepared, he must make her feel sexy, secure and totally desired, that shouldn't be too hard though and the way his cock was behaving he would struggle with the taking his time part.

  Sophie was reflective she knew what she wanted, the way he looked at her made her body clench in places that she didn't know existed, she was also aware that as this was the first time since Jasper and only the second man to have sex with part of her was terrified that she would freak out and have flashbacks or end up attacking him or even throwing up, hardly conducive to a night of passion. The buzz between them was growing though and walking up to the hotel reception Marcus stopped suddenly grasped Sophie’s face curling his hands into her hair and pressing his lips to hers, Sophie responded instantly and dragged him closer with her hands wrapped around his neck, tongues thrashing in a tantalising dance, Marcus pulled away first but only an inch their foreheads touching “I need to get you upstairs and make love to you before I drag you into those trees, you bewitch me Sophie that is some magic you have woven, He released her and they went inside clasping each other’s hands Sophie could feel her lips throbbing from his assault, she licked them gently and sighed she was desperate to give herself to him and wanted this first time to be as special as it could be, her history must not be the cause of her waking up disappointed tomorrow morning.

  Marcus had booked two rooms that adjoined as he hadn't wanted to presume anything tonight but he needed to be close enough to comfort her if she had any night terrors, their bags were sent on and they stepped in to the lift, the moment the doors closed the current was there again they stood side by side both fighting desire, breath ragged and fists clenched, when it stopped he grabbed her hand and they strode to their room.

  Once inside they were on each other lips tongues and hands they stumbled towards the large four poster bed, Marcus paused regained his composure then he pulled back, “let’s do this right Sophie I have wanted you from the moment I saw you and I want to savour every inch of you and every moment we have together,”

  He removed his jacket and tie all the time keeping eye contact with her “stop now I want to help with the rest!” she whispered blushing

  “you first little lady” Marcus stroked her
face then turned her round he moved her hair off her back and kissed her neck along the top of her zipper, he was about to pull it down when he noticed her tense up “Sweetheart every part of you is mine nothing about you will change this desire I have for you right now” to prove a point he pressed his hard groin into her bottom so she could feel every inch and exactly what effect she had on him she moaned softly which sent tremors down his spine. Slowly he inched the zipper down kissing every part as it was exposed he could see a weave of scars some old some more recent criss crossing her back from the base of her bra strap to the top of her panty line “clever choosing the parts no one would see” he thought to himself when he peeled her dress off he stroked her marks there were so many he had trouble seeing where they started and ended, he knew that some were deep enough to be permanent flaws but most would heal eventually and be almost invisible over time but the idea her so called lover had forced this much damage to her made him tremble and he struggled not to lose control and throw things around the room.

  Sophie was aware Marcus had stopped kissing and knew he was now looking at her scars she waited for him to react, good or bad this was the moment it could go either way, suddenly she felt his lips start their journey again and a moan escaped her lips he pushed his erection into her again as if to reassure her that the sight of her scars had not halted his desire, Sophie instantly relaxed and became soft in his arms, before she knew it she was lying face down on the bed, Marcus was licking and nuzzling and stroking her she could not stop herself wriggling and groaning beneath him he paused again at the top of her thighs the junction of her woman hood, she closed her eyes, she knew the cigarette burns in such an intimate place was probably the worst of her horrors they were done after sex and she was vague about how or why as she was usually barely conscious when they were done to her.

  Marcus hissed at the sight of the burns, he had seen the ones on the front but hadn't thought there would be more, he peeled off her panties slowly and kissed down each leg as he made a slow journey south he then licked his way back up her body to her bra strap, he had left this part until last as he wanted to relish the first touch of her sumptuous breasts. Sophie was flipped over after her bra strap had been unfastened, she watched his face as he gently peeled her bra away then saw a look of pure joy then lust as he smoothed his hands over her soft skin rolling her nipples with his thumbs she groaned and arched her back pressing her groin into his hardness desperate for some contact with his flesh, he sat back yanked off his shirt shuffled out of his pants put on a condom and then lay above her with an expression that alone could bring on an orgasm, to be desired so much was driving her to the edge, she looked down the length of his body she had been aware his erection felt impressive but the sight of his glory in the flesh was mouth-watering, he nudged her gently with the tip of his cock then bent forward to kiss her breasts. Sophie wrapped her legs around his trying to lever herself close to his length, but as he was quite tall she could only get the tip close so she rubbed her opening gently over it very aware she was practically dripping for him, he obviously felt her wetness too as at that moment he bit hard on her nipple and cursed softly” woman you will un man me if you continue with that” he pulled himself back continued sucking her nipples but his left hand started to move down to explore her, his fingers found their target and as he plunged between her soft lips he stifled a growl at how ready she was he gently moved his fingers in and out touching that sweet spot just inside but using his thumb to massage her swollen clit, within seconds she was pulsing under him crying out with her pleasure. ”oh baby you are so beautiful are you sure you want me to carry on?” she nodded fervently at him desperate to feel full and only when she had finished trembling did he then ease his length slowly and gently into her checking her reaction to him, making sure she was ok with this, once she urged him on he then moved in and out gently at first then deeper and deeper as he felt her squeezing his length with her tightness, she dug her nails into his back driving him on harder he sucked and kissed her breasts then her mouth her orgasm was building again and he felt her rise and quiver suddenly she pulled back from his mouth and screamed his name aloud pulsating around his cock he thrust once more and then he found his own release he sank into her feeling every last pulse. Sophie had a job to breath she closed her eyes loving the feeling of completeness and him still twitching deep in her body he pulled out of her gently noticing her little moans as he withdrew he removed the condom and pulled her on top of him holding her close, she lay on his chest unable to move she had just discovered how making love was meant to be she smiled up at him and he kissed the tip of her nose “sleep now baby “ Exhausted she needed no encouragement he turned round pulling her into his arms so he was curved around her spine and stroked her hair until she fell into a contented sleep.

  Chapter 9 Marcus felt her drift into sleep and sighed contentedly their love making had been amazing she had been more receptive and responsive than he could have hoped, his erection had hardly dwindled and was ready for action again he put that thought aside and lay back to enjoy the view. Sophie looked so peaceful tonight more so than the last time he had watched her sleep, she looked so frail she called to the depth of his soul, the sex was fantastic best he had ever experienced the depth of his emotions had made the pleasure unimaginable and he would never be able to satisfy himself with her body, her breasts were like a teenage boys fantasy and she was so warm and tight he loved being inside of her it made him feel whole, these were not the right thoughts to calm his erection he would need to jump in the shower or read a book but he couldn't bear to part from her, his erection pressing at that soft flesh of its own accord and he couldn't help himself so he reached for another condom and then nestled into her so the tip just slid inside, his hands explored her breasts again and he pushed deeper inside, Sophie moaned her appreciation and her eyes were suddenly open, she felt him pushing gently inside her and thrust herself backwards to take all of him over taken by an immediate need to feel him inside her again she threw her arm behind clasping his buttock to pull him closer, Marcus growled his pleasure at her reaction and angled himself so he could hold onto her hips and plunge deeper into her pussy she bit into the pillow as she could again feel the pressure beginning to overtake her” yes she shouted Marcus harder please” one deep thrust just rubbing her spot and she fell into an orgasm gasping as he thrust once more to explode inside her.

  Marcus was exhausted but was aware Sophie had not let go of his hips he pulled out and turned her round to face him, tears were running down her face, he sat up pulling her into his lap “Sophie I’m sorry did I scare you then I know you were asleep are you alright?” she smiled through her tears “ Marcus tonight has been the most wonderful night of my life but I’m scared it won’t last forever, I never wanted to need a man ever again and yet here I am now needing you, Marcus you can’t ever leave me I won’t survive it you have made me love you too quickly and I am in too deep to run away now”

  Marcus was stunned he stroked her hair soothing her “baby it’s OK I won't leave don't worry” he pulled her face away from him wiped the tears that streaked her face and looked directly in her eyes

  “Sophie I am thrilled you think you love me because baby.. I love you too I know it’s very quick but I’ve known since day one and I could only dream you would feel the same” he kissed her soft lips and she beamed at him her eyes glowed with pleasure and she snuggled into him he held her close until sleep took over her, he knew he loved her and his desire now was to make sure she was safe Marcus had a burning desire to find the bastard that hurt her and make him pay.
