CHAPTER 25 #2
Kieran removed his fingers from her hair and placed his hand flat against her head, causing Rila to rest her cheek against his chest as he held her close, her arms wedged between their bodies and his jaw resting on her temple.
They stayed like that for a while until she forced her head back so she could look at him.
— Now it's my turn to get serious — Rila's eyes sobered, the emotions from minutes ago fading away — You have to promise me that you won't make decisions about our relationship alone.
If we're gonna do this, then let's go it together — spoke in a warning tone — You don't have to figure it out on your own, Kieran.
No matter what happens, if it's something about us, we talk it out and decide what to do.
— Ok, let's do this together.
— And it won't be easy and uncomplicated — she quoted the ridiculous phrase he used years ago — Because I'm not easy and uncomplicated. Also, it doesn't mean that I trust you completely, it may take some time for that to happen, but I won't fight you anymore.
— Fine, I can handle it — he held his cheek with both hands and spoke intensely — And I won't live my life without you, Rila.
Kieran also referenced his own words and earned an understanding smile from her. And then he leaned in and kissed her again, this time calmly and tenderly.
However, that didn't last long. As soon as he felt her arms slip around his back, between his coat and hoodie, and her tongue slowly caressed his, his body responded by letting out a growl that made her deepen the kiss.
— Let's go up — she tore their mouths apart and began pushing him back toward the building, her movements showing urgency and restlessness.
— Rila, you're drunk — Kieran stopped her from continuing to walk and held her by the shoulders.
He wanted to go up, really did. But he knew what would happen if he did, and she had been drinking.
— No, I'm not, look — she opened her arms and placed her calf over the opposite knee, making the number four with her legs — See?
He tilted his head to the side, taking in the scene in front of him, and his cheeks twitched with a smile. Snow fell on them, her nose and cheeks were reddened as snowflakes sprinkled her black hair.
— Do you really think I would do something I don't want to do just because I had a little to drink? — she narrowed her eyes and stared at him with her chin held high — If you think about it for one more second, I'll leave you down here and go upstairs to use my vibrator.
He had to concentrate really, really hard to keep his brain from flooding with images of Rila pleasuring herself. But the way the word vibrator slipped past her lips made him swallow hard.
She didn't wait for him, dodged his body and walked to the entrance of the building.
Kieran followed her.
She had a winning smile on her lips as the elevator doors closed. One that he erased by pressing her against one of the walls of the machine and devouring her mouth.
They were a panting mess when they finally reached her apartment. They hurried inside, and as soon as the door closed, Kieran pressed her against him, their mouths moving in an almost punishing rhythm.
He trailed kisses down her neck as they removed their coats, the pieces forgotten at their feet. Rila's fingers closed in the front of his pants, the tightness on his member making him grunt in an almost animalistic way.
With his entire body burning for her, Kieran undid the buttons of her pants and slipped his hand inside, the dampness of her panties making him smile in her throat.
He kept their bodies closed as he caressed her through the cloth, his index and middle fingers making circular motions on her clit.
— So wet — he felt her excitation wetting her panties — All this for me, Rila?
She only responded with a whimper, her head falling back against the door as her hands gripped his hoodie urgently. He saw her eyelids flutter and begin to close as she pushed her panties to the side.
— Open your eyes — he ordered and placed a forearm above her head, leaning in until their foreheads touched.
He kept his hand still there until dark eyes dripping with desire met his. It was only then that he slid his middle finger inside her wet channel, her hot breath hitching at the movement.
Her mouth opened slightly to suck in air, as if her nostrils alone weren't enough for the job. She gasped as he added the second finger, and he felt her arousal making a mess in his palm.
Kieran moved his fingers, exploring her inner walls with quick, efficient movements. He knew exactly how to touch her body, he had done it dozens of times before. And he would do it dozens of times more.
— Oh my God — she exclaimed and he saw her struggling to keep her eyes open as her intimate region began to clamp down on his fingers — Holly shit, Kieran.
Fuck, he couldn't wait to feel that on his member.
Her body tensed, her head pushing against the door as her legs shook. He felt her grow even wetter and a strangled moan left her throat as she came in his hand.
And he had the privilege of watching her the whole time.
Still with his forehead pressed against hers, he saw her frown and her eyes grow cloudy. He saw her breath catch completely before coming back gasping. He wanted to see that every day.
— You're perfect — Kieran murmured, wetting his lips before kissing her briefly and removing his hand from inside her pants — Bedroom?
— Upstairs — her voice came out hoarse and low — Give my legs a second to recover.
He couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth. He liked knowing he had done that to her.
— Come on, I haven't even gotten to the best part — he placed his hands on her ass and lifted her, causing her legs to wrap around him instinctively.
Kieran had to concentrate to carefully climb the stairs as she trailed lingering kisses from his earlobe to his chin. When they reached the bedroom, he placed her in the center of the bed and got rid of his clothes, desire making all his blood concentrate in his member.
He wal Rila prop herself up on her elbows and ran her eyes over his entity body, licking her lips as she stopped to stare at his erection.
— I want that too, but let's leave it for later — he placed himself between her legs, holding the condom he had taken from his wallet — Right now I want to be inside you.
He unrolled the latex on his erection and leaned forward, supporting his body with one arm at her shoulder as he guided his swollen member into her folds.
Kieran shifted his hips, thrusting into her while keeping his eyes glued to her face. He watched as her gaze transformed as he sank in completely. One second her dark irises were burning like newly lit embers, and the next they looked as if they had been engulfed in pure fire.
Their hips ground against each other relentlessly, their bodies in sync. Sensual noises escaped Rila as his chest vibrated with grunts. The way her walls held him was from another world. He remembered it felt good, but the memories didn't hold a candle to reality.
Feeling her pleasure reaching its peak, he slid a hand to her thigh, pulling it up a little as he squeezed the flesh. This small change in position made her cling to him, her nails biting into his shoulders causing a pleasurable burn.
— Fuck, yes — Rila moaned as his member sank into her relentlessly, their bodies sliding together across the mattress — Kieran.
— I know — he growled, a thin layer of sweat beginning to cover his skin — Fucking good.
He felt her walls strangle him and her body writhe beneath him. It was when she cried out his name that he felt the tension at the base of his spine release and the rhythm of his thrusts become erratic. He rested his head on her shoulder, letting a husky groan reverberate through the room.
He had to roll to the side before he collapsed into her because his body was unreliable at the moment.
Panting, sweaty, and satisfied, they curled up together in a comfortable silence. As he held her against him, Kieran felt his heart returning to his chest after nearly six years.
