DELILAH
I snuggled myself more into the hard surface, the warmth oozing from it was so relaxing. I sighed, my arms around it tightening when I felt the surface move a little.
I groaned at that, wrapping my hold more around it to keep it still. It felt like I still have the sleep of some centuries left to be completed. After it moved, I was spooned up in a cocoon. I immediately opened my eyes to see the jaw of someone.
I raised my head and peeked through my lashes to see clearly, and everything from yesterday kicked in. My cheeks burned as I didn’t dare to look up, already knowing he was awake.
His fingers brushed over my cheeks, softly that a small sigh left my lips. I bit my lips feeling his hand all over me again. “Good morning.” His voice was husky and deep, all laced with sleep.
“Morning.” I squeaked, when he pulled me closer to him, nuzzling his face in the crook of my neck. He placed feathery kisses in there, his breathing all over my neck. “You're so relaxing.” I laughed lightly hearing him.
“You too.” He pulled his face out, his eyes looking so soft and bare, that I turned towards him. My mind played the scenes of last night before I could finally recall what he said at the end of all. My heartbeat quickened and I looked at him, feeling nervous…
Was it, he said that out of pleasure, or was it true?
I couldn’t constrain myself from asking him. “Was it true?” His eyebrows furrowed in confusion for a while, before I felt the realization dawning on him. He started at me wide-eyed, his throat bobbing up and down.
“Huh?”
I placed my palm over his bearded cheeks, staring at him, my mind almost screaming that maybe I have imagined that and this would be so embarrassing but I couldn’t stop myself.
“Last night…”
“Yes. It’s true.” He cut me off in the middle, his breathing labored and his jaws tightened. I brush my fingers over his jaws, making him look at me and say that.
There was such kindness and compassion in those pools that I just want to stare at them day and night. He placed his hand over my, squeezing it. “Yes… whatever I have said is true… it’s been true for a while now…” He looked down, his finger toying with the pending resting on my chest. “I… I didn’t know how to tell you that, but Lilah…”
His eyes meet mine again, “I'm in love with you.” His voice was soft, inching closer to me just a hairbreadth away. I didn’t dare to move and break the spell we were in. Something I had been dreaming of for months now. Something I had always wished to hear.
My throat tightened and I couldn’t say anything back, because to be honest for a second I thought I had dreamed all about last night. I closed my lips, taking in a deep breath when I felt his arms going around me caging against his bare chest before I found myself on top of him.
His fingers brushed away the tiny hair from my face, a softness residing on his hard features. “I…”
“Shh… it’s okay. You don’t have to answer right away. Just know that, even if you don’t feel the same for me, I will not lessen my love for you,” He pressed a kiss against my cheek, his lips lingering there for a while, “Nothing can lessen my love for you, Lilah. I just want you to be close to me. My love will be enough to survive us too. You don’t have to burden yourself to feel the same if you don’t.”
I snuggled closer to him as he continued. “I want you slowly falling for me, sweetheart not under the obligation of... And I’m always ready to give you as much time you need, it’s you all I want till the last.” He dipped his head in the crook of my neck, pasting me closer to his body.
“You know my past, Damien. You know the tainted marks I carry around… will you still-“
His palm came over my lips, cutting my words, “It's you alone I fell for, your soul, body, and heart, your scars of battles you fought, not some tainted marks.” He looked deep inside me, it left I was so bare in front of him, more naked than last night, such irony when I was more covered now.
“As long as it’s you, nothing else matters. I’m still going to love you, Lilah. Only you.” My eyes burned and in the next second I was sobbing, my body trembling against him. He looked worried as I peeked through my lashes. He sat up, pulling me on his lap, his arms going around me in a tight embrace.
“Did I scare you? Don’t cry please, you don’t have to pressure yourself with my love, sweetheart. Just know it’s always there whenever you look back.” I cried more at his words, and his figure going tensed around me.
“Will you tell me what’s wrong?” I shook my head, snuggling more into him. My lips pressed kisses against his chest, my palm resting over his heart which was syncing with mine.
“I love you too.” My voice was low, lower than any hearing decibel but I found his body going rigid against me. His arms tightened and his constant playing with my hair stopped. He cupped my face, making me look up at him.
“What did you say?”
“Nothing.” I bit my lips, seeing his confused face, which was so adorable. Maybe he could have seen through my lie when I saw his eyes darkening. “This isn’t the time to joke Lilah.”
I almost rolled my eyes at his tone, he could switch his mood so fast. He dipped his head low, his mouth making contact with my neck when I found him nipping his teeth in there. A moan escaped my lips when I found his fingers doing under, tracing my belly till my mound. “Tell me, Lilah, what did you just say.” My body felt desperate for him yet again, wanting him closer to me.
He smirked seeing that but did not attempt to either kiss me or bring me closer to him. Not having any other way, I gave up. “I love you. I love you so much, Damien.” My arms go around his neck in a hug, his body pressed against me.
