6. Lili #3
But I couldn’t finish the sentence. The world exploded around me, pleasure crashing over me in waves, my body shaking as I cried out his name softly.
Edward held me through it, his mouth never leaving me, his hands firm and steady, until the last shudder subsided, leaving me boneless and breathless.
He sat back on his heels, his chest heaving, his eyes dark with satisfaction.“You’re incredible,”he murmured, his voice hoarse.
I managed a shaky smile, my heart still racing, my body still buzzing with the aftermath.
“Your turn,”I whispered, my voice laced with mischief.
Edward’s eyes flared with desire, and he stood, his hands moving to the buttons of his shirt. I watched, my breath catching, as he slowly undressed, revealing the lean, muscular body I’d only glimpsed before.
He was a work of art, every line and curve a testament to strength and grace.
I reached out, my fingers tracing the contours of his chest, my touch light and exploratory.
He shivered under my touch, his eyes closing briefly as he savored the sensation.“Lili,”he groaned, his voice thick with need.“You’re going to make me crazy.”
I smiled, my heart swelling with a mix of desire and tenderness.
I stood, my hands moving to the zipper of his pants, my fingers trembling slightly as I pulled them down.
He stepped out of them, his boxers following, and I caught my breath at the sight of him, hard and eager, his arousal undeniable.
I reached out, my fingers brushing the length of him, and he hissed, his head falling back, his hands gripping my hips.“Slowly,”he warned, his voice a rough whisper.“I don’t want this to end.”
I nodded, my heart pounding, my body thrumming with anticipation.
I sank to my knees, my hands moving to his hips, guiding him closer.
I looked up at him, my gaze holding his, as I leaned in, my lips brushing the tip of him.
He shuddered, his hands tangling in my hair, his breath coming in sharp gasps.
“Lili,”he murmured, his voice a plea.“Please.”
I smiled, a wicked, knowing smile, before taking him into my mouth, my lips closing around him with a slow, deliberate motion. He groaned, his hips bucking slightly, his hands tightening in my hair. I hummed, the vibration sending a shiver through him, and he cursed, his control slipping.
I took my time, my mouth moving in a rhythm that had him panting, his body tense and trembling. I savored the taste of him, the feel of him, the way he responded to every touch, every flick of my tongue.“Lili,”he gasped, his voice breaking.“I—”
But he couldn’t finish the sentence. His body went rigid, his hands gripping my shoulders as he thrust into my mouth, his release hot and urgent. I held him through it, my lips moving gently, my hands soothing, until he went limp, his breath coming in ragged gasps.
He pulled me to my feet, his arms wrapping around me, his lips pressing to my forehead.“You’re going to ruin me,”he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.
I smiled, my heart full, my body still buzzing with the aftermath.
“I think you’re already ruined,”I teased, my voice soft.
Edward chuckled, a low, rumbling sound, before his expression turned serious.“Lili,”he began, his voice low and intense,“what we just did—it changes everything.”
I nodded, my heart sinking slightly as the weight of his words settled over me. We’d crossed a line, one we couldn’t uncross.
The consequences loomed, a shadow cast over our forbidden encounter.
Before I could respond, a sound echoed through the manor—the faint creak of a floorboard, the soft murmur of voices.
My heart stopped, my breath catching in my throat. Someone was coming.
Edward’s head snapped up, his eyes widening as he realized the same.“Shit,”he hissed, his hands moving to my dress, hastily pulling it back into place.“Hide. Quickly.”
Panic surged through me as I scrambled to follow his instructions, my mind racing. Where could I go? They were almost outside the door. I looked around frantically, spotting a small closet in the corner.
“In there,”Edward urged, pushing me toward it.“I’ll handle this. Just stay quiet.”
I nodded, my heart pounding, and slipped into the closet, pulling the door shut behind me. The space was cramped, the air thick with the scent of old wood and dust. I pressed myself against the wall, my breath coming in short gasps, my mind reeling.
Through the thin wood, I heard the study door open, voices echoing in the silence. My heart raced, my body tense, as I strained to listen.
Who was it?
Had they seen us?
The voices were low, muffled, but I caught snippets—a man’s deep tones, a woman’s sharp reply. My stomach dropped. It was Lady Victoria, Edward’s mum, and her companion, Mr. Grayson. What were they doing here at this hour?
My mind raced, the implications crashing over me.
If they found out, if they suspected—
The closet door creaked open, a sliver of light cutting through the darkness.
My heart stopped, my breath catching in my throat. Had they found me ?
But it was Edward, his face pale, his eyes wide with panic.“Lili,”he whispered, his voice urgent.“They left, but you have to go. Now.”
I nodded, my heart pounding, and followed him out of the closet, my mind reeling.
What had we done? What would happen now?
Edward grabbed my hand, guiding me toward the door.“Go back to your room,”he urged, his voice low.“We’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
I nodded at him, my mind a whirlwind of confusion and uncertainty.
How could I explain that in the space of a single day, everything had changed? And from the way Edward had kissed me—like I was air and he was drowning—he was falling too.
The question now was, who would hit the ground first?
