CHAPTER EIGHT - RECKLESS FLAMES
I couldn’t believe it. Lily was lying right next to me, just a few feet away. I could hear the soft sound of her breathing, and it only made me want to turn toward her and drag her close to me.
Suddenly, the window blew open, and I remembered that I hadn’t checked on the windows in the room when I was closing all the windows in the cabin. Lily shuddered, and I quickly sprang up from the bed to close the window. I locked it firmly in place and made my way back to the bed.
The chill still lingered, and I suggested to Lily that we go under the covers so we wouldn’t freeze to death.
“Lily, it's freezing. We should get under the covers before we turn into ice sculptures.”
She hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Yeah, okay. That sounds like a good idea.”
Once under the covers, Lily’s warmth practically drew me closer to her, and our bodies met, but she flinched away. I simply stayed still, unsure of what to do. After a moment of silence, Lily spoke my name. She spoke so softly, and if it wasn’t so quiet, I doubt I would have heard her.
“Alex?”
“Yeah?” I answered.
“Do you think… do you think it would be okay if we, um, cuddled? Just for the sake of body heat?”
I didn’t know what to say at first. My thoughts were all over the place, but in the end, how could I say anything but yes?
“Sure, Lily. I mean, if it helps keep us warm.”
After a moment, I felt Lily begin to shift toward me again. As soon as our bodies came in contact again, I felt something ignite inside of me, and I slowly reached out to hug her close. The feeling of her warmth against my body sent shivers down my spine that practically rivaled the cold, and I found myself dragging her closer till her head rested on my chest.
This was too much for me, and I could feel my consciousness slipping. I softly whispered to her. “Lily?”
“Mmm?” she asked, in clear confusion.
“I’m sorry.” I sighed.
“You’re sorry?” She asked, “What for?”
I moved back a little bit, causing her to look up at me. I could still make out her silhouette, and as I took in a breath and inhaled her scent, I couldn’t help myself anymore and quickly captured her lips in a passionate kiss of longing.
Her breath hitched, but she didn’t pull away. Instead, she kissed me back, her lips moving against mine with a passion that matched my own.
Her lips were soft, and the taste of her left me wanting more. We kissed deeply, the tension between us growing with each passing second. Lily’s hands found their way to my hair, tugging gently, sending waves of electricity through my body. I could feel her heartbeat racing against my chest, matching my own.
As we broke apart for air, our foreheads rested against each other. The room was silent except for the sound of our heavy and uneven breathing.
“Alex,” she whispered, her voice trembling.
“Yeah?”
She sighed, her fingers tracing patterns on my chest. The touch was light, but it sent sparks through me. I couldn’t help but pull her closer, feeling her warmth seep into me. The cold that had gripped us earlier was a distant memory now.
“Do you… do you feel this too?” she asked, her voice barely audible.
“Feel what?”
“This… connection. Like everything just makes sense.”
I smiled, brushing a strand of hair away from her face. “Yeah, I feel it too. I just wasn’t sure you felt it.”
Her eyes met mine, and for a moment, everything else faded away. There was just Lily and me, wrapped up in a moment that felt like it was meant to be. I leaned in and kissed her again, softer this time, savoring the feel of her lips on mine.
Everything about her at that moment felt amazing to me: her scent, her voice, her lips, and even how she felt in my arms. Her hands were buried in my hair, and her legs had slowly begun to wrap around my hips.
I didn’t know when I had lifted her up and placed her back on the bed, so I was hovering over her. I used one hand to keep most of my weight off her while the other one grasped her thigh, gently caressing it.
“Wait,” She breathed heavily, breaking her lips from mine for a moment. “I don’t think we should do this.”
“You’re totally right Lily, but I don’t think I can stop myself,” I replied, slowly kissing down her neck until I reached her breasts. “I want you.”
She met my eyes. Her coffee-brown pupils dilated until they turned almost onyx. She slowly brought her hand to the front of my hair, gripping it. Teasing my curls between her fingers, she pulled my head down to her face. I came closer, stopping when we were just inches apart.
“Okay,” she whispered barely, and I couldn’t help it anymore.
I crashed my lips down on hers, catching her by surprise, and drew a moan from her. She gripped my hair tightly to the point where I could feel her nails digging into my scalp. Letting my tongue tease the seams of her lips, I slowly brought my hands around her waist, down to her rear. I rounded them, feeling the soft, warm flesh against my palms.
Lily moaned again, dragging me closer to her with lust-filled eyes. Finally, when she couldn’t breathe anymore, she pulled her lips from mine, sucking in a breath. “I want you too, Alex.”
That was all I needed to hear, and I let her go. The pajamas she was wearing were highly convenient, as I could easily pull the top up. She allowed me to tug it off her body, exposing her to me. I let my eyes gaze over her body, taking it in.
Skin as white as the snow that trapped us inside the cabin, pale breasts, perky nipples, an hourglass figure, and that seductive smile of hers that caused something to burn deep inside of me.
I brought my lips against hers again, grabbing her neck in the process. She met my passion with the same force, wrapping her legs tightly around me while her hand reached for the ropes of the robe I had on. She quickly tugged it loose, and the next second, she was dragging the robe off my shoulders.
Once the robe was gone, I brought my hand to her breasts while hers were planted against my abs. I felt her fingers roam across the broadness of my chest, down to my belt buckle. My hands cupped her two large breasts, and I weighed them, feeling her nipples harden against my touch. A soft moan escaped her lips as my mouth traveled down her neck. I could feel her hands slide down to my boxers, and I couldn’t help but grunt in approval.
When her hand slipped inside, she was met by my hardening cock. Stroking it softly, she released a moan as I returned the favor with a pinch to her nipples. She arched into me. “Alex... I can't wait any longer.”
“Then don’t,” I said against her neck. While her hands roamed the broad of my back, I let my teeth scrape and bite along the skin of her neckline. She tightened her legs around me and breathed heavily.
After some time, she pulled back a little, reaching for my briefs. I allowed her to pull it down, releasing my cock. She laid eyes on me with a parted mouth, a small gasp escaping her. I scoffed, grabbed her chin, and turned her head upwards, forcing her eyes to meet mine. “Isn’t this what you wanted?”
Her throat bobbed, and she nodded. “Yes. God yes, I want you.”
She then pressed her lips against mine again, hungrier than before, more eager. Her hands wrapped around my neck as I drew her closer, bringing her warm center to my crotch.
And then I rammed into her with no warning. Lily cried out loudly and dragged her fingers down my shoulders. Her nails pierced my skin and drew blood. I gritted my teeth, groaning at the delicious sting of pain.
“Oh, God,” Lily moaned, moving a little to adjust to me. “Oh, my fucking Go—”
I cut off whatever she was about to say by mashing my lips against hers. Slowly, I pulled out of her, only to thrust back in. She mewled and arched her back. I repeated my action, picking up the pace just a little.
I let my lips travel to the crook of her neck again, sucking and biting onto her neck, leaving a trail of burning red skin. My hands found her ass, pressing her against me with every thrust. Each time, I felt myself go even deeper, hitting her where she needed it and where she could feel it most. Her moans grew louder, and her words became incomprehensible noises. At last, I felt her walls tighten around me, grasping their release.
“Alex!” she screamed, as her orgasm overpowered her, and a part of me was thrilled we didn’t have neighbors. Her nails clawed down my back and left a trail of scraped skin as I kept pounding into her. With a final thrust, my own release came, and I let go.
“Oh, my God,” she panted, clinging on to me, the faint hint of sweat glistening on her body.
I couldn’t help but smile as I lowered myself to meet her intoxicating lips once more. When we finally pulled away, she nestled her head against my chest, her breathing slowing to match mine. I held her close, my fingers tracing lazy circles on her back.
“We should probably get some sleep,” she murmured, her voice muffled against my shirt.
“Yeah, we should.” But neither of us made a move to separate. Instead, we lay there, wrapped in each other’s arms, the world outside completely forgotten.
Eventually, I felt her breathing even out, signaling she had fallen asleep. I pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her head and closed my eyes, letting the warmth and comfort of having her next to me lull me into sleep.
