  "Eros... You don't need to go on," I told him sincerely. But he shook his head and said "I have to... I want you to be in my life little Grace and for that to happen you have to know everything." he swallowed the lump in his throat as he continued "It was only me at the time. Being the rebellious child I was, didn't settle well with my father. So he'd take out all his rage on me but my mom... she's kind and caring. She's like every mother should be and because she loved me with every ounce of her body she took the beating for me," my hands flew to my mouth holding in a gasp.

  "But one night, my father went too far with my mother by pulling out his gun. This happened sometime during my senior year in high school. I was able to take on my father and call the cops. But ever since then my mom hasn't been the same. Those years were the worst years of my life and I was tempted so many times to run away but there was one thing keeping my feet grounded... you,"

  My eyes widen at his words. How can I keep someone like Eros strong? We barely even talked before. "I was nursing my wounds one night and then I saw you. You were in your room doing your homework and it looked like you were tired because your eyes kept drooping shut. Your head kept falling but you'd always catch yourself but after a few minutes your head fell forward and you hit your head on your desk. You bolted right up thinking someone hit you or something but as you realized that you just fell asleep and hit your head on your desk, you laughed. You were so innocent and so full of life and that was the moment I knew that I was in love with you. The more I got to know you the more I fell in love with you." he confessed.

  I felt exhilarated and terrified at the same time. My heart felt like soaring through the sky. My stomach filled with angry butterflies and my legs shook involuntarily. It scares me how Eros has this much effect on me.

  "I moved away, leaving you was the hardest thing I had to do. I got a business degree and opened up a few businesses but my side job. I call it my own personal rehab for people like my father," he spat out. "Relatives who lash out on their own blood. I take them in, beat them a few times and make sure they're sober before they go back to their families. But if ever they can't change then they face my beatings and I hand them over to the police." it was silent for the next few minutes. I was still processing what he said.

  "I understand if you'll leave a monster like me. My mom is at a nursing home. Ever since dad's beatings, she's never been the same. She lost her mind and the will to live. I blame myself every day for what happened to her... if only I was stronger," he had a longingness in his eyes.

  I tried processing what he said and come to terms with what he is but my feelings for him were still strong. I pushed aside all thoughts and let my heart take the wheel. I grabbed his face and pushed my lips upon his. He was shocked and didn't respond at first but after a while, he gripped my waist and kissed back. Unfortunately, we had to pull away to catch our breaths. I leaned my head against his and told him softly "What happened to your mom wasn't your fault. You’re a hero Eros if not to others than to me. And no matter what you do, I don't have the will to walk away from you. I'm here to stay."

  Who knew that love could feel like soaring and melting all at the same time? I was nervous today because Eros was taking me on our first date. Claiming that he could sweep me off my feet. I have no doubt he would.

  Like the gentleman that Eros was he picked me up from my home, even though we lived right next door to each other. Still he picked me up and started driving towards dinner. “Where are we going?” I asked him. He looked even more handsome today wearing a white button-up shirt with black jeans. His hair was carelessly brushed on his head giving him a bedhead look.

  “It’s a surprise,” he said with a wink. I frowned and told him “I hate surprises.” All of a sudden he leaned towards me and stole a tender kiss from my lips leaving me flushed. “From the looks of it, you love surprises. Trust me on this little Grace, you’ll love it.” He said obviously he was in a chipper mood.

  By the time we arrived at a restaurant that was on the outskirts of town, it was raining lightly. Eros parked the car and quickly made his way to my door, and Eros being tall and all his body shielded me from the rain. When we entered the restaurant he wrapped a possessive arm around my waist. “Reservation for Carmichael,” he told the waitress. The waitress checked her book while Eros looked at me lovingly. I could definitely get used to this.

  “Sorry sir, but there’s no reservation for Carmichael,” the waitress said making Eros’ head snapped dangerously at her. “What?” he seethed. “There’s no reservation under the name of Carmichael.” She stated. “I called hours ago reserving the garden table.” Clearly, Eros was irritated. This won’t end well.

  “Sorry sir but our garden table is unavailable at the moment. If you’re willing to wait—” But the poor girl didn’t get to finish when Eros literally growled at her and he sounded menacingly. “Look here wench, I’m here to impress my girlfriend,” I couldn’t help but blush when he called me his girlfriend. “And clearly, you’re ruining it. I’ve made my reservations. Check. Again.” He hissed, his face red from anger.

  The waitress panicked as she quickly scanned through the book in hopes she’d find his reservation but by the time she looked up, it was obvious on her face that she didn’t find it. Eros unwrapped his arm from my waist and pushed me behind him. I could feel his aura getting more dangerous by the second. “I want to know who’s responsible for the reservations! I will kill—” I knew where this was going so to calm Eros down I wrapped my hands around his bulging biceps.

  He looked down at me with an intense gaze but I looked up at him with a small smile. “Eros,” he shut his eyes as if saying his name calmed him down. “We can go somewhere else.” I suggested. He opened his eyes and I can tell he was a lot calmer now. “Are you sure little Grace? I can pull some strings.” He said. I smiled widely at him, appreciating that he valued my opinion. “Yes, maybe we can go to your house and I can cook for you.” I suggested and he beamed with happiness by the suggestion.

  As we walked out of the restaurant, Eros glared at the waitress. But I quickly tugged him out of there before he can change his mind. By the time we got outside it was already raining hard but still Eros shielded me from the rain using his body as we got back to the car.

  “We could’ve got the reservation back there. I could’ve talked to the manager and get things straight,” he offered one last time before heading back to his house. I scoffed “Talk? Yeah right, more like talk with your fists.” He looked at me amusingly. Probably, because I was so sweet back in the restaurant and for good reason too. I didn’t want to cause a scene.

  By the time we got back to his house we were drenched from head to toe. I blame Eros, I started running towards the house to not get any wetter than I was but Eros caught up with me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and spun me around in the rain making me squeal with glee as he carried me to his house.

  My eyes betrayed me as I stared at Eros whose shirt was soaked making it cling to his muscles. He caught me ogling at him painting a smirk on his face. “Like what you see little Grace?” I rolled my eyes at him. He gave me a towel to dry as he headed towards the kitchen.

  Eros groaned as he cussed out. I slowly walking towards the kitchen to see him hitting his head repeatedly on the refrigerator. “Anything wrong?” I asked. He looked at me with a pained expression. He then kneeled in front of me and hugged my waist again. “I’m the worst date ever. I haven’t gone grocery, so there’s no food.” he explained. I tried cheering him up by saying “It’s okay. I wouldn’t know since I have nothing else to compare it with,” But I chose the wrong words.

  His eyes widen “This is your first date? Ever?” I slowly nodded. He groaned and said “Today is such a failure. Not only am I a monster but I can’t even take my girl on a proper date. You must think very low of me,” Sadness filled every single pitch of his voice. Even though things didn’t go as planned today, not a single thought crossed my mind that today was an utter failure.
r />   I smiled as I kneeled down in front of him and caressed his sad face. “Eros,” I said with a smile. “Today wasn’t a failure at all.” Without a warning Eros pushed his lips upon mine but I didn’t hesitate to kiss back. It was a kiss full of passion and desire. His lips started trailing along my jaw making me forget how to breathe.

  “You’re so beautifully perfect,” he said through kisses.

  Chapter 7

  It was hard not to moan when someone as handsome as Eros is kissing every part of your neck. A part of me wanted to pull away but the buried desires I have for Eros are awakening, burning with a passion. A fire that only Eros could tame.

  I gasped out by the magnitude of pleasure his kisses are giving me. His hands ran through my wet hair as mine traced the muscles on his chest making him groan. Was I willing to go all the way with Eros? My question has been answered when Eros found my sweet spot on my neck and started sucking it.

  I felt like I was drowning in a pool of passion and love. After what seemed like minutes of kissing, I finally noticed that we were leaning against the wall with my legs wrapped around his waist and my arms around his neck. He ground his pelvis against my hips making me feel a burning sensation between my legs.

  “We need to stop now or else I won’t be able to hold myself back,” he said breathlessly. Somehow, the thought of him not holding himself back sent me in an euphoria state. “Then don’t,” I barely recognized my own voice filled with lust. Eros growled as he started carrying me towards his room, whimpering as I felt his hands squeeze my butt.

  Once we were near the bed, he set me back on my feet making me stumble from my weakened knees but luckily he held me up. His eyes stared at me intently as he slid the sleeve of my dress off my shoulder, gently pressing a kiss to it. The simple gesture felt erotic. He did the same to my other shoulder and left my dress to fall to the ground.

  “I promise, I’ll be gentle and make this perfect for you,” he promised. He scooped me up again into his arms to throw me on the bed gently. He started unbuttoning his shirt making my eyes glued to him. He crawled upon the bed towards me as if I was his prey. His lips were on mine once more but as his finger lightly traced the roundness of my breasts sending shocking tingles through me, I couldn’t help but gasp. He took the opportunity to insert his tongue and played with my own.

  Eros’ lips made its way down my neck towards the valley of my breasts. His hands moved with skill as unhooked my bra. Almost instantly, he latched his lips upon the little bud of my breasts while he fondled and caressed the other. I squeaked in surprise by the vast amount of want that scorched through my body. I nearly whined when his lips left my breasts and traveled to my stomach.

  I couldn’t help but let out a breathless moan which only encouraged Eros’ hot kisses. We slowly and agonizingly stripped the rest of our clothes and once I felt his enormous girth I let out a squeal of excitement making Eros chuckle which sent vibrations through his body. “My little Grace, so innocent.” He commented. “Want me to continue?”

  No words escaped my mouth. Instead, I pulled his lips back to mine as our tongues fought for dominance. Eros pulled away, much to my disappointment, as he stared at every single curve and flaw on my body. His finger traced the edges of my body making me shiver with delight. “Every single inch of you is just perfect,” he admired as he stared at my body with lust and longingness.

  With a sexy laugh he started kissing my body. All of the pleasure trailed from my neck to my thighs. Again and again, the waves of pleasure kept coming. My heart quickened when he adjusted himself between my legs. When he noticed my tensed body he gazed back at me and asked “Still want to continue?” Dazed and completely filled with lust, I nodded. I gasped as I felt his tongue running down my naughty bits. I was mad with desire as his name escaped my lips over and over again.

  He closed his mouth and sucked on the bundle of nerves of my womanhood. It’s nothing like I’ve ever felt before. As I felt his fingers inserted themselves, I felt something wet traveling down my thighs and I didn’t know if it was coming from me or him. Further, faster, harder, but still tender and loving.

  Shocked by the sudden intense feelings that shot through my body, my hands flew to Eros’ hair and gripped it tightly. Without even thinking my hips moved on their own accord, gyrating to meet the pleasures of Eros’ skilled fingers and lips. My mouth watered at the most extraordinary feeling building up within me, but before it could ignite, Eros pulled back smirking as I whined in protest.

  “Easy little Grace… We’ll get there,” he assured me. He’s given me so much pleasure that I wondered if he’s expecting me to give the same. “Uh… Want me to…” I couldn’t finish the sentence but I did gesture towards his pants. His smirk turned into a sincere smile and softly said “No my little Grace, this is not about me. It’s about you. I want you to feel like how every woman should be treated.” If I wasn’t blushing already I would’ve blushed at this moment.

  Eros growled as he saw how innocently I was looking at him. “You drive me crazy Grace,” As he started sucking my bottom lip. As I’m hypnotized by Eros’ delicious lips I didn’t notice when he aligned his manhood to my virgin hole. This time there’s no reassuring words as my whole body tensed by the new arousing touch. His lips slowed down to a more tendered kiss rather than the rough sexual kiss he gave mere seconds ago.

  He made me forget my doubts as he kissed me and slowly pushed his way into me. My body welcomed the pain as he steadily pushed his full length into my warm wet hole. My body clung to him tightly as I tried to scream but Eros was kissing away the pain. He didn’t move as he kissed me. I think he was letting my virgin walls get used to the feeling of his enormous girth.

  He pulled out and slowly rocked back in. I sighed in delight at the new feeling. This time he pulled all the way out but before I could protest he slammed right back in. “Eros!” I whined in ecstasy. I clamped down my legs on his back as I drove his length into me with more force making him hiss in pleasure. “Grace!” he growled my name making me quiver in need.

  He started going faster. Plunging deeper and deeper into me. Hitting places that I didn’t knew existed. We were rapidly breathing as our moans filled the room. Our bodies slid together as his hands alternated between my breasts and my throbbing womanhood. “Oh shit, I don’t think I’ll last long,” he grunted as he kept rocking into me. I could feel that explosion approaching as Eros’ plunging became more sloppy and heavy. Then it happened.

  The mounting pleasure before the peak was like nothing I’d ever felt. Every cell within me was lit ablaze with fierce lust I couldn’t control. I could feel my walls tighten around him and not too long after Eros’ body trembled as he moaned out loud. He sounded so sexy I thought I almost came again.

  His body relaxed above mine but he made sure not to crush me. He pulled away completely as he stared at me lovingly. Both our bodies covered in sweat. And just when I thought things couldn’t get better, Eros shot me the most amazing smile ever. “Wow, that was… amazing,” he said which made me blush. I felt naughty but most of all I felt loved.

  I snuggled into his side burying my face in his neck as he gave lingering kisses on my head. I can’t deny it any longer. I was irrevocably in love with Eros Carmichael, the notorious bad boy. “My little Grace, I hope you won’t regret what we did. I know I won’t… that was one of the most amazing moments of my life. I just want you to know that I love you. You make me want to be a better person,” he said and his words still made my heart skip beats.

  I rolled onto his chest and stared into his deep ocean eyes. “I love you too,” I said bravely which had him beaming with pride and joy. “And what we did was simply perfect.” His arms tightened around me as if ensuring I wasn’t going anywhere, and I wasn’t. I couldn’t and never would I.

  Chapter 8

  “Where is she?” Eros growled as he lifted the man up and slammed him against the wall. “She was just in the kitchen, boss.” The man stuttered obviously scared out of hi
s mind. “I swear if anything happens to her I’ll shove my fist so high up your ass that you’ll be puking it out,” he threatened.

  “Oh put the poor man down, Eros. I was only in the bathroom.” I said as I appeared around the corner. Eros’ dropped the man on the ground as his gaze softened once they reached mine. “Little Grace,” he sighed as he approached me and lifted me into a hug.

  It’s been two years since we’ve been in a relationship but just last year we moved in together. I got a scholarship at Albert Einstein School of Medicine. Eros refused that I moved to New York by myself. His exact words were “I’ll follow you to ends of the world.” And in those days I’ve spent with Eros was the happiest I’ve ever had.

  Melissa lives not too far from here, and although she’s still terrified of Eros, we still see each other often. Eros’ side business is now about to become legal. He’s opening up a rehab center and once I become a legit doctor he’ll put me as head doctor at the rehab center. And the most beautiful of them all is that I continue to fall in love with Eros each day. He stayed true to his word as he loved and cherished me. Although from time to time he would cause a scene or out of anger he’d beat someone up but at least he’s working on not to.

  “You’re looking more beautiful each day,” Eros commented as he peppered my face with small kisses. “Eros! Say sorry to that man!” I scolded as I pointed at the man who was having a hard time getting up from the floor. Eros groaned in dislike as he faced the man like a child being told what to do. “Sorry.” was his brief apology. Close enough.
