One, two, three, four...
And that was when he heard it.
Eve, unaware of how thin the door was, had started mumbling under her breath.
I'm fucked. Oh my God, I'm so fucked.
Konstantin turned his back before allowing a smirk to unfold over his lips.
Indeed.
If things went the way he envisioned...
She would be fucked, indeed.
By him.
EVE FELT AS IF SHE was in a dream as she walked out of the ladies' dressed in nothing but a thin hospital gown, and when Konstantin turned to meet her gaze...
Oh no!
She quickly crossed her arms over her chest to hide the way her nipples had started poking against her hospital gown.
Konstantin's jaw clenched at the effort it took to pretend that he hadn't just seen her nipples come into life the moment she saw him.
And when he thought about the fact that Eve was now completely naked under her hospital gown...
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
Eve jumped in surprise when the surgical gloves Konstantin was putting on made a loud slapping sound. It was unlike him to act with undue haste, and she found herself momentarily forgetting her embarrassment. "Is everything okay?"
"New brand of gloves." It was the lamest lie in the world, and Konstantin wanted to kick himself as soon as he said it.
"I see." She didn't actually, but then again, she wasn't a doctor, so maybe that was why it didn't make sense to her.
"Anyway..." Konstantin's voice turned gruff in his effort to keep lust from coating his voice. "If you're ready for the examination..."
"Um, yes." Eve hurried forward.
"Lie here please."
Eve did her best to act naturally as she removed her shoes before climbing up the bed.
I can do this, I can do this.
After taking one last breath, she slowly allowed herself to lie back against the bed, her arms still covering her chest.
"Is the room too cold?" Konstantin managed to ask calmly.
"N-no."
"Would you mind then, if I ask to keep your arms at your sides?"
Shit. Oh shit.
Eve's heartbeat grew louder and faster as she forced herself to follow Konstantin's instructions, and as soon as her arms were resting against her sides, she heard him suck his breath hard, and the sound made her feel anxious. "D-Doctor Manolis?"
"Sorry." Konstantin could not stop staring. Even though she was lying down, Eve's breasts were still big and beautiful, and its erect nipples proudly outlined by the thinness of her hospital gown.
When Konstantin didn't say anything else, Eve slowly turned her gaze up—-
Oh.
He was staring at her breasts.
And the look in his eyes...
Impossible.
That couldn't be lust glittering in the surgeon's gaze. Right?
Konstantin closed his eyes for a moment. A virgin , he reminded himself forcefully. Even though she had come to him with her own free will, and he was willing to bet she'd let him do anything he wanted with her body...
He still needed to exercise care and patience.
She was a virgin, and he owed it to Eve to make her first time special, at the very least.
Eve bit her lip hard as she watched Konstantin's gaze continue to linger at her breasts. He had to see that her nipples were erect now, and what if... what if it made him think she was horny for him?
Even though it was true, the thought still embarrassed her, and Eve was suddenly desperate to know what he thought...as well as utter all the necessary lies to deny the truth.
"Dr. Mano—-"
Oh my God!
Her gaze flew up to him in shock.
He had one hand on her breast, and his fingers were now kneading the swollen globe of flesh like it was his new toy.
"Doctor..."
"Yes?"
"Is t-this normal?"
Hell no.
But instead he heard himself say, "Of course."
Eve was stunned. Did he mean it? This was really normal?
"In the form you filled out..."
Form?
What form?
It was so, so hard to think, with Konstantin's hand still kneading and massaging her breast.
"You listed down several symptoms..."
Eve's confusion cleared. The form... she finally remembered it. When Agnes handed her a form to fill out, she had asked for Cassidy's help, and the other girl had simply snatched the form out of her hands and promised to take care of it.
"You also mentioned hyperphilia..."
Eve had no idea what hyperphilia meant, but because it was Cassidy behind this, she had a feeling it wouldn't be anything good.
"About that..." Distracted as Eve was, she failed to notice the way the surgeon's jaw clenched as she absently ran her tongue over her dry lips. "I'm not actually sure... ah!" A mortifying whimper escaped Eve when the doctor stopped kneading her breast...so he could start rubbing her nipple between his fingers.
"Go on."
But Eve had completely lost her train of her thought.
Konstantin's fingers...were... amazing.
"Eve?" Desire lent an unnatural thickness to Konstantin's voice, and it was only because Eve was so fucking innocent that she didn't even notice anything amiss. "You were saying something about being sure..." He tugged her nipple as he spoke, and Eve's body arched up while her tiny cry of pleasure bounced against the walls.
"Eve?"
"I'm s-sorry," she managed to stammer. "I c-can't r-remem... ah..."
Both hands, she thought dazedly.
Both of Konstantin's hands were busy now, with how they alternated from massaging her breasts and tugging her nipples.
Tug. Tug. Tug.
She tried hard to keep silent, but then Konstantin did something new again, his fingers now pinching her nipples... hard.
Her body buckled, her lips parted, and she heard herself moan.
Konstantin couldn't take his gaze off Eve's face. Her expression as he pleasured her was the most beautiful thing, and he found himself thinking, I have to taste her.
The need to feel her pussy tremble under his mouth consumed him, and when he heard Eve moan—-
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck!
Moving to the foot of the bed, Konstantin caused Eve to gasp as he yanked her down, and he heard her gasp for the second time as he pushed her legs open—-
Eve had barely raised herself up on her elbows when she saw Konstantin's head disappear inside her gown.
Oh God.
A moment later, she felt his breath caress her thick, swollen folds—-
Oh God!
His tongue lined her moist, quivering flesh, and she fell back against the bed with a moan. Embarrassment and desire warred inside of her, and at first Eve instinctively tried snapping her legs close while pushing his head away. But this only made Konstantin chuckle, and when she felt his fingers prying her folds wide open—-
"Noooooo!"
She tried pulling away, but it was too late.
His tongue thrust inside of her sex, and Eve cried out in an intense mixture of shock and pleasure. She had known - of course she had known that having a man's mouth on one's pussy was likely to feel good. But what she could never have imagined...
Oh God.
What she could never ever have imagined was for it to feel this good.
This heavenly.
Just so, so, so wonderfully good that all thoughts of resistance faded, and she instead found herself clutching his dark head—-
"Please. Please. Please."
She sobbed the word over and over even though she had no idea what she was begging Konstantin to do. Did she want him to stop? Did she want him to go on and on?
Oh God, she had no idea.
Just no idea what was happening.
All she knew was that it felt good.
So, so good, oh God—-
"Nooooo!"
Eve's cry was of despair when she felt his tongue withdraw completely.
It couldn't be over.
It couldn't—-
"Doctor!" She hadn't planned to call him this. It just happened, the moment she felt his mouth close over her clit, and when he started sucking, she just couldn't help it—-
"Oh God, Doctor!"
Konstantin had never found roleplaying in the bedroom a turn on, but when he heard Eve call him by his title, he surprised himself by finding it kinky as hell...
"Please, D-Doctor—-"
And all of a sudden, he, too, was just out of control as she was.
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
He straightened up with a curse, and as he rapidly started unbuttoning his jeans with appalling lack of grace, his dark gaze collided with hers, a part of him just seemingly waiting - even expecting - for her to call a halt to this insanity.
But instead he heard her whimper, "Doctor, please, please hurry ."
FUUUUUUUCK.
His cock, already long and hard, finally sprang free, and he felt her body shudder at the sight of it. There was nothing he wanted more than to thrust his cock inside of Eve and claim her innocence, but somehow, Konstantin managed to control himself just enough to ask, "Are you sure—-"
"Please."
She hadn't even let him finish the damn question.
"Please, Doctor—-"
And that was when all hell broke loose, the last vestiges of his control shattering, and he found himself gripping her legs...just as he drove his big, hungry cock inside her wet virginal pussy.
She cried out in pain, her body arching up as his cock tore past her hymen.
Their gazes locked with each other, and he forced himself to keep still as he waited for her to speak.
Seconds passed, and the need to move made beads of cold sweat line his forehead.
His cock was twitching hard, violently demanding to plunder what it deemed its property—
But still Konstantin managed to resist, waiting, just fucking waiting...
And finally, he saw her lips slowly start to move.
"Doctor..."
It was just one word. One fucking word. But the way she said it was enough, and with a rough growl, Konstantin pulled his cock out—-
"Doctor—-"
—-just before slamming back in.
He did it over and over, his hips pumping furiously against the bed, and Eve's soft cries spurring him to move faster and deeper and harder.
He couldn't get enough of her pussy. Just couldn't. It was so fucking wet. So fucking tight. And ah...the way her muscles clenched around him...
Fuck!
Konstantin strove to make it last, but the moment he felt Eve's body suddenly stiffen—-
Fuuuuuuck!
She released a lovely little sob as she started to cum, and Konstantin found himself right behind her, his balls tightening as his own lips moved. "Eve..." Her name came out in a hoarse rasp, and the sound of it pushed him to the brink, and he found himself cumming inside of her, his seed filling her pussy...
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
His eyes squeezed shut as a shudder of pleasure rocked his body.
This was the hottest fucking orgasm he had ever experienced...but the fact that it had to happen with Eve made Konstantin feel absolutely cold inside.
EVE'S EYES DRIFTED open when she felt Konstantin slowly pull out of her. She waited for him to say something, waited for his gaze to meet hers. But neither happened, and a strange, prickling sensation twisted her heart as she watched Konstantin zip himself up.
"D-Doctor?"
"Let me just clean myself up, and then I'll take care of you." Konstantin's voice was horribly polite, and the way he continued to avoid her gaze made Eve's eyes prick with tears.
He thinks it's a mistake.
He thinks...
I'm a mistake.
A DULL SENSE OF PAIN gripped Konstantin's chest when he returned to his clinic and found it empty.
Eve was gone, and he should've fucking expected it, with the way he had acted. After taking her virginity, he had completely shut her out like she was nothing more than a paid tramp. What else was she supposed to do but leave? What else was she to feel but anger and hatred?
After this, she would never want to see him again. After this, he would never feel her soft gray eyes following him wherever he went...
After this, he would cease to exist for her.
And that was just how it should be , Konstantin told himself forcefully.
His whole life, he had always been in control, and he had never made any careless mistakes. Never.
But Eve...
Before this, she had meant nothing to him, dammit.
Nothing.
So why the hell had he suddenly found himself breaking all of his rules and actually cumming inside of her like he wanted her belly round with his child?
He had his whole fucking life planned, dammit, and it did not include him sharing his life with a girl who had stars in her eyes and wore her heart on her sleeves.
She was nothing to him before, and one fucking night wouldn't change that.
It shouldn't.
It musn't.
Eve was nothing to him, and she would remain nothing to him.
EVE WOKE UP THE NEXT day knowing exactly what she wanted to do. Quit her job, forget about him, and move on. It was her only choice, if she wanted the emptiness in her chest to disappear, and she could start feeling right again.
But when she stepped out of her apartment, pale and listless, the first thing she saw—-
No!
Eve immediately tried getting back into her apartment, but he was too fast for her. His fingers curled around her arms in an instant, and Eve's chest nearly exploded with pain as Konstantin spun her around and she found herself staring straight into his eyes.
"I'm sorry," Konstantin said hoarsely.
His dark gaze was no longer enigmatic and shuttered. It was now raw with pain, but she told herself she was just imagining it.
"Forgiven," she said tonelessly. "Now, can you please go?"
The emptiness in her voice made Konstantin desperate, and the way she was staring at him - it was as if she was looking at him without letting herself really see him...
Desperation clawed at his soul, and Konstantin's fingers tightened around her arms, a part of him terrified that once he let her slip, he would never get her back.
"I'm sorry," he said doggedly.
"And I already said it's okay—-"
"I'm sorry I panicked."
He saw the way her lip started to tremble, and Konstantin's chest tightened.
"I wasn't ready—-"
"What about me?" she asked brokenly. "Did you think I was ready—-" He didn't answer, but the look in his eyes...it was telling her he actually did think that, and a painful laugh escaped her. "I used to think I was crazy—-"
"And I used to think you were a coward little mouse."
Eve didn't even know what to think with that. A coward little mouse?
"But the joke was on me," Konstantin continued tightly, "because in the end, I realized you were the one who was brave, and I...I was the one..." His jaw clenched. "I was the one who was terrified—-"
Eve shook her head. Did he really think she'd buy that?
"I'm not lying. I was terrified," he repeated doggedly.
"Can we please just stop this—-"
"Then give me a chance to explain—-"
"There's nothing to explain," Eve cried out. "I wanted you, I was an idiot for wanting you, and you—-"
"Wanted you back," Konstantin gritted out. "We had sex just once, Eve. Once. But it was more than enough, and I found myself wanting everything. That was what terrified me that night, and that was why I let you go."
"Please just stop this—-" Eve tried shaking free of his hold so she could walk away and stop listening, but this only made Konstantin's grip on her tighten.
"I thought I could make myself forget you," he said hollowly. "I thought I could make myself forget what happened. But I was wrong. I tried imagining life without you, and I couldn't."
Eve could no longer speak. She could only stare at him, his words echoing in her brain—-
I tried imagining life without you, and I couldn't.
And when she looked into his eyes and only saw the same desperation she had once felt—-
It was true, Eve realized.
Everything he said...was true.
Konstantin saw tears slowly trailing down Eve's cheeks, and his throat tightened.
"I know I've hurt you," he said rawly, "but if you could just trust me one last time..."
He saw her tears spilling faster, and his chest grew heavy.
He had hurt her too much, Konstantin thought dully.
He had fucked things up too much, and he only had himself to blame.
"I'm sorry," he said one last time as he forced his fingers to loosen its hold. "And I know you probably don't want to hear this, but..." He breathed hard as he stared at Eve's pale, tear-stained face.
A face he was sure he might never see smiling at him again after this...
"I love you."
He saw Eve close her eyes, and it was like having the sun go out of his world until...
Konstantin stiffened in shock as Eve suddenly threw her arms around him.
And a moment later, he heard her whisper...
"I love you."
IT WAS A GLOOMY MONDAY afternoon outside Stanhope Medical Center, but while the sound of endless rain had a lot of people sporting rather long faces inside the staff cafeteria, one girl in particular looked so very painfully... scared.
Cassidy did her best to hide her smile as she watched her friend squirm in her chair.
"Do you really think this is a good idea?" Eve whispered.
"Absolutely," Cassidy didn't hesitate to say even as she crossed her fingers behind her back.
"But what if he gets mad?"
"Then just blow him a kiss," Cassidy said airily. "I have it in good authority—-" Another lie. "—-that always works between couples who are truly in love."
"But—-"
Cassidy shot up in her seat when she saw Eve's boyfriend of one month stride inside the cafeteria. "He's here."
Eve froze. Oh no. Oh dear. Oh well.
Cassidy watched the gorgeous Greek surgeon scan the cafeteria with visible impatience.
Anytime now...
Konstantin started walking.
And...boom!
The surgeon, upon finally catching sight of Eve, was so visibly stunned that he ended walking straight into the vendo machine.
Cassidy burst into laughter, and Eve, having heard Konstantin swear at the same time, quickly turned around in her chair—-
Uh...
Konstantin was shaking his head as if he didn't know what hit him, but when his gaze clashed with Eve's—-
Oh?
She gulped in fright as Konstantin started towards her. The look on his face was cold and inscrutable, but she had a feeling she was about to get punished...
And she was right.
The moment Konstantin reached Eve, he wasted no time in whipping his white coat off before dumping the whole thing around her shoulders.
"Up," he barked.
Eve nervously jumped to her feet, and when she saw him reach for her, she couldn't help but inch back in fear—-
Oh.
She blinked in surprise when she realized that all Konstantin intended to do was button his white coat all the way up to her neck until every inch of her body was covered.
OH.
Cassidy had her dressed up as a sexy candy striper, and it had made Konstantin—-
"Are you jealous?" Eve whispered in shock.
Konstantin stared at her like she had lost her mind.
Oops .
She started to apologize—-
But at the same time she heard Konstantin say in exasperation, "Of course I'm fucking jealous. Why the hell would you even ask—-"
The surgeon broke off, no longer able to speak with Eve having once again catching him off guard as she threw herself in his arms.
He must've been blind as a bat, Konstantin thought resignedly, not to have seen past Eve's mousy ways and discover her crazy streak of impulsiveness.
Then again, something told him that Eve couldn't have possibly conjured the idea of wearing a sexy candy striper uniform on her own.
Cassidy, seeing the Greek surgeon's dark eyes narrow at her, already had her excuse ready. "Eve told me being with you was like a dream," she said right away, "and that she was scared you'd one day wake up and realize you weren't really in love with her."
Konstantin glanced down at Eve. "This is true?"
Eve nodded against his neck.
"Very well..."
And without any other warning at all, Konstantin simply tipped his girlfriend's chin up before taking her mouth in a deep, hungry kiss.
Like, tongue-way-down-in-Eve's-throat-deep.
Like, his-hands-were-now-cupping-Eve's-butt-kind-of-kiss.
Like...
Hands suddenly covered Cassidy's eyes from behind.
Huh?
A moment later, she heard a familiar voice with a British accent say very politely, "Find a room, Konstantin. My secretary is still quite innocent, and I'd like to keep it that way."
