She placed a finger against his lips. “Don't go there. I refuse to believe that something bad will happen. Everything is going to be just fine.”
He sighed and nodded. “Alright.”
Her bra fell to the ground and even though she had almost no clothes left on her body she didn't feel naked. He made her feel safe, loved and cherished. He never broke eye contact with her as he helped her out of the rest of her clothes. Within minutes they were both naked. He grabbed her hand and led her into the pool. Before her body came into contact with the warm water she realized that she was a little bit chilly, but it would not be for long. She smiled to herself when she thought about what was going to happen. She was already on fire and seeing Aledyan’s naked body fanned the flames of her desire.
His skin was soft and warm, but the rest of him was firm muscles. His shoulders were broad and his chest wide. His arms seemed to be twice as large as hers and his strength could not be mistaken. He could cause severe damage to someone with his huge body, but when he touched her his hands were gentle and caring.
They sat down in the water and Aledyan pulled her closer to himself.
“Let's pretend for a while that you will find a way to set me free,” she said. “What will happen after? I don't want to leave you. Is it even possible for us to be together? I mean, we belong in two different worlds. Other people won't be able to see you, and I doubt I can go with you to your world.”
He was silent for a while and Inez didn't like that, but he never stopped touching her. His fingers stroked her arm, but she didn't dare gaze up and look into his eyes. She was afraid of what she would see there. She was the one for him, but maybe it didn't matter. Maybe there was no chance for them once they were out of here. The thought made her sad, but she held back her tears and hoped Aledyan would give her good news.
“It will be different,” he finally spoke. “It's true that few will know that I'm in your presence. Some will sense me, thinking that I'm a spirit or a ghost stuck on earth, unable to move on. But most people won't notice me at all. You on the other hand will always be able to see, touch and feel me from now on.”
Her eyes went big. “But you said that I wouldn't be able to do that once I walked out of here.”
“That was before I realized who you are. You see, our souls are one and the same. We always will be, and always have been one.” He placed his hand above her chest. “I know you feel it too, that there is something about me, and the instant attraction between us is proof of this.”
Inez swallowed. “Yes, but what does all of this mean?”
“It means that I will stay with you, but it will bring changes to your life.”
“What changes?”
“Your friends and family will most likely not be able to see me. They won't be aware of me and will believe that you have chosen to be alone for the rest of your life. They will be sad for you, and try to convince you to find a man that you can be happy with.”
“I just want you.”
He smiled at that. “They don't know that, and if you tell them about me they will most likely react the same way you reacted when you saw me. You believed I was a fantasy.”
“Yes, that's true. They don't think much about what's out there.”
His face turned serious. “Do you understand what that means?”
She gave him a confused look.
“It means that you won't be able to tell them about me, unless they are ready for it.”
Inez looked him straight in the eyes. “Do you really think I care about what they think? No, I don't. What I do care about is you and I want you in my life. Nothing is ever going to change that. Let them think that I want to be alone for the rest of my life. At least I will know that I won't be. I'll have you right there, by my side, ever day, right?”
“Yes, always, but I'm also saying this.” He grabbed her face with his hands, it was a gentle but firm move. “You are mine, and no one else's. I will never let you go. I mean it, Inez, never.”
The seriousness in his eyes should frighten her, but it didn't. Instead she found his dominant tone appealing. “I understand.”
He didn't let go of her face. Instead, his eyes became even more serious. “You are the one, Inez. The one and only for me. If you turn me down I will be alone for as long as I exist. But I promise you, I will make sure that you will gain a lot more than you need to sacrifice from being with me.”
Her lips were shaking when she asked: “Sacrifice what?”
“Keeping me a secret will be difficult. Eventually you will understand what I mean, but like I said, I will make it all up to you. I will make it all worthwhile.”
He placed her on his lap facing him with her legs on either side of his hips. It felt good to be this close to him. The skin contact made her feel as if she was where she should be. He seemed to like having her there as well. The fire in his eyes told her so, especially when he suddenly smiled and made a move with his hips, as if he wanted to insinuate something. She knew exactly what he wanted. Inez let her hands trace over his wet and warm chest while she watched him close his eyes. He leaned his head back against the edge of the pool and moaned.
“That feels good,” he said. “You have no idea how badly I want you.”
She looked down to see what was going on with him under the water, and grinned when she saw what she expected to see.
She let her hand sink under the water. Aledyan tensed, but he didn't open his eyes. Instead, he remained still, but his mouth parted when her hand moved closer to his sensitive area. Inez leaned forward and pressed her lips against his before she grabbed his shaft. His body jerked beneath her from the touch, and he deepened the kiss. Moans of pleasure came from him, and she felt him shiver under her again. She lowered her head and started to kiss his throat and gently nipped his ear.
His voice was unsteady when he spoke. “You are mine, Inez.”
She met his gaze. They would be together, always. He promised her happiness, even if it meant she had to make a few changes in her life. Her family would think that she had become somewhat strange, but she knew they wouldn't bother her, much. Honestly, she didn't see anything wrong in being with him. She liked that idea very much. She saw what she had always searched for in a man when she looked at him. The affection had been there from the moment she had laid eyes on him. If love at first sight existed, then this was it.
“Yes,” she answered.
Chapter 20
Aledyan's heart did a flip when he heard her answer. He hadn't expected her to answer right away. He had thought that she would want more time to say it, but the determination in her eyes was clear. She wanted him just as much as he wanted her.
Her answer did funny things to him. He felt that he could let go of his self-control. Inez wouldn't be scared of him anymore, not now that she had accepted him into her life, forever. He would make her happy; very happy.
He raised his head and closed his arms around her, pressed her closer against his chest. He gasped when his lower parts pressed against her body, making him go almost crazy from desire. He needed her, and he needed her now. He heard her breathing fast, and she couldn't hide her desire from him when he let his hands explore her body. She leaned her head back when his mouth found her breast. When he saw her breast react to his touch, he grinned to himself and went to the other one, making her moan again.
When her hand went under the water, and her gentle fingers closed around him he almost jerked out of the water. He hadn't expected that, and she giggled softly at his reaction. His body jerked again when she started to move her hand up and down on him, making him almost come from the sensation itself. He was so not used to this, but he enjoyed every second of it. He bit his lips together hard, but when she leaned down and licked his throat he lost all control.
“I'm going to ...” he gasped before his body tensed. He threw his head back and his roar echoed in the cave while his body jerked under her. Not until she finally let go of him did he exhale and relax. His body felt h
eavy, and his head was spinning. It was a good feeling, one he definitely could get used to, but this made him realize also that he still had a lot to learn.
He opened his eyes, and shame flooded him. The last thing he had expected was this. Things couldn't become more embarrassing. What would she think of him now? He expected to see disappointment in Inez eyes, but she smiled instead.
“I'm sorry.”
“Don't be,” she said.
“I'll do better next time, just give me a few minutes, and I'll show you that I can last longer than that.”
She chuckled again. “So you want more?”
“Yes. I'm feeling far from satisfied, and we need to do something about your pleasure as well.” His face became serious. “Inez, you know that if we go the whole way I'll be set free.”
She nodded. “That's the idea, my love. The sooner you'll be set free the more time you'll have to find a solution to set me free as well. We still have two days before Yorin will be back.”
He frowned and smiled. “My love? I like that.”
She laughed. “Good, because I intent to call you that a lot.”
“I think I have to come up with something nice to call you too.”
She kissed him on the tip of his nose. “You do that. In the meantime, I'll get myself dry.”
Inez got out from the water, giving him a clear view of her body, making him grin and react. His body was definitely far from satisfied. He wanted to stay in bed with her for days, forget about the world outside and just enjoy everything they could do together. But there wasn't much time for that right now. Fear lingered in the back of his mind, he didn't know how this would end. Two days weren't much time to find an answer to the chains, but he would do everything in his power. He wouldn't let her down.
Never.
She was his life now, and however this ended he would make sure he stayed with her.
He stayed in the water and watched her while she dried herself. She gave him a grin, and Aledyan wondered what that teasing look in her eyes meant. It didn't take long before he found out. Inez started to make slow, seductive moves with the towel around her body, caressing herself with it. She bent, turned and then bent slowly again, always hiding her secret parts from his view with the towel. She was giving him a show, and it made him ache for her.
“Are you trying to seduce me?” he asked.
“Am I doing a good job?”
Aledyan swallowed and couldn't ignore how his longing grew for her again. It had never died after what her sweet hands had done to him. It had only been calmed for a while, and now it came back with full force. If he didn't have her soon, he would burst.
“You sure are,” he said and stood up.
Her gaze lowered to his groin. “I can see that.”
Aledyan enjoyed having her eyes on him. He would let her look at him and touch him all she wanted once they were out of the cave. But right now all he wanted was to carry her to his bed and show her whom she belonged to.
He barely gave himself time to dry his body. He was in a hurry, and Inez noticed it. She giggled while he let the towel quickly graze his body before he threw it to the ground and pulled her up into his arms, heading straight for his makeshift bedroom.
Aledyan laid Inez down on the bed. The new linens smelled nice, fresh. If Yorin hadn't brought them, he would have refused to use the bed for their love making. Instead, he would have made it cozy for them by the pool. The mattress were also old, but it could have been a lot worse.
Aledyan leaned over Inez. He saw her smile and her small hands started to explore him while they looked at each other. Her hands were gentle, and her touch felt so wonderful that he thought he would go crazy soon if he didn't take her. He longed to hold her, to be close to her and never let go.
With one swift move, he pushed her thighs apart and placed himself on top of her. Inez didn't protest, instead she wrapped her arms around him and pushed him down on her. He almost crushed her with his weight, but Inez didn't seem to care. He tried to lift off her a little, but she didn't let him. She wanted him close.
When her lips started to explore him, he became lost in a world of pleasure that he hadn't known until now. Her hands were everywhere, touching, squeezing and enjoying every inch of him. She made him moan and long for more. His head was spinning, and reality didn't matter anymore. Only she existed.
The only thing he needed to do to enter her was to push his hips forward. He could feel with the tip of his shaft that she was ready for him, but he waited. It was almost pure torture, being this close and not doing what his body wanted him to do. He knew that once he started he wouldn't be able to stop. He needed Inez to be completely aware of what would happen if they went the whole way, but right now she seemed to be as lost in pleasure as he was.
He let his mouth taste her breasts. She arched her upper body toward his mouth while a loud moan left her throat.
“Do it,” she said with a hazy voice.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes. I need you.”
She suddenly moved and grabbed his haunches with her hands. In the next second, she pushed his hips down against her private area, and he felt himself glide into her with one swift move. Aledyan's brain was too foggy to realize what she was doing before it was done. He had wanted to give her a few more minutes to reconsider everything before he entered her, but Inez apparently had other plans.
Somewhere in the distance he heard her moans of pleasure before his mind went blank. He started to move his hips, slowly. Inez groaned under him, but he heard the frustration and impatience in her voice. She wanted more. She lifted her hips to meet him halfway, and her hands - that still laid on his haunches - pressed him down against her. She showed him clearly that she needed him to move faster.
Aledyan responded to her need. There was nothing else he could do. He was too lost in the sensation. He barely remembered when he had started kissing her, but it didn't matter. The taste of her was a trigger like no other, especially when her tongue intertwined with his. His fast breathing switched between his loud moans and screams that echoed in the cave. The sounds that Inez made didn't ease his desire either. Instead it had the opposite effect on him, and he knew he wouldn't last.
Somewhere in the back of his mind he noticed that the chains started to get warm around his wrists, just like last time. He knew that if he came inside her he would be set free, and Inez would take his place.
For a short minute, he sobered and met her gaze, telling her what was going on with one simple look. He couldn't stop, there was no turning back, and anxiety shot through him momentarily as he thought that Inez would change her mind. But she nodded, and determination crossed her passion-filled gaze.
Aledyan grabbed her wrists and placed her arms above her head, never letting go of her wrists. He leaned his cheek against hers and closed his eyes.
“I love you,” he whispered, feeling the chains becoming even warmer.
Aledyan's hips started to work faster and harder than before, and once again his mind fogged. The pleasure overtook him, and he could no longer hold back. He felt Inez tighten around him, and seconds later his roar mixed with her screams of pleasure.
The chains almost burned his skin.
And then the burning feeling was gone.
Chapter 21
It was quiet. The only thing Inez heard was Aledyan's fast breathing against her ear, and her own calming breaths. He still lay on her, making it a little bit difficult to breathe, but she didn't care. She enjoyed having him near, and she wanted to put her arms around him, but he was still holding her wrists. She could feel his heartbeat against her chest, and his skin felt sticky with sweat.
Slowly he raised his head and their gazes met. A satisfied smile spread on his face.
“Are you alright?” he asked.
“Yes,” she said. She only felt sore in all the right places.
“That was amazing.”
Inez grinned. “I think you are going to enjoy it a lot more in the
future.”
“How come?”
“Because there's so much more we can do than the things we just did.”
He grinned back. “I see. You will have to teach me all about it.”
“I intend to.”
She tried to move her arms, but Aledyan didn't let her. His grin faded when he looked up at her hands.
“Inez ...” he started slowly. “Please, whatever happens now, trust me. I will never let you down, and if I fail I will return to stay here with you.”
“What are you talking about?”
Under a moment of pure passion, her mind had gone blank, but now when she was slowly returning to her senses, everything started to come back. With a gasp, she looked above her head, and what she saw made her heart almost stop.
The chains were around her wrists now.
Aledyan was free.
“Inez ...” he said again when she looked at him with shock. She knew this was coming, and had thought she was prepared for it, but now when it was done she realized she was far from ready. Panic grabbed her.
“It's alright,” Aledyan hushed her, and lied down beside her before he cuddled her into his arms, gently caressing her arms and back to calm her. “Everything is going to be alright. Don't worry, just breathe.”
Tears ran down her cheeks. Aledyan brushed them away with his fingers. He allowed her to cry out in his arms without saying another word.
She wanted to pull her arms close to her chest, but the chains were too big, and in the way. They were cold too, and she didn't want them against her naked skin. The chains were heavy and their presence was both frightening and uncomfortable. She doubted she would ever get used to them, but she hoped she would never have to. Aledyan would find an answer, she told herself.
After what felt like hours, she finally became quiet. The linens beneath her were wet from her tears, and a part of Aledyan's arm also, but he didn't say anything. Her eyes felt warm, and she knew they were red. She didn't need a mirror to confirm it.
