Even in that slight moment, I was able to feel his soft lips on my own. His breath on my skin.
When I pulled away, my heart was pounding even louder. I don't know if I was able to process it, but I literally just kissed Fenix.
"That's not a kiss, Elsie." He whispered as he pressed his body closer to mine. I had little clothes on me but I was feeling hot.
He was still fully clothed and this, our little moment right now, felt too intimate.
Now it was not two people who were in a fake marriage and tied by a constant.
It was just Elsie and Fenix.
My gaze went from his eyes to his lips. I found the courage and kissed his lips yet again. This time I let my lips linger for a bit longer but still, it was just a peck.
How else was I supposed to kiss him?
I slowly parted our mouths and licked my lips in nervousness. I sank my teeth into my bottom lip and waited for his reaction. His hands were still in the pocket of his slacks. His jaw was clenched and his eyes darker than usual.
The stunning green was now a shade darker.
He cocked his head to the side and raised his eyebrows in a challenge.
"It was not good again?" I asked slightly irritated and he shook his head slowly while poking the inside of his cheek with his tongue.
He was teasing me and he was enjoying it.
"Well of course it's not a kiss when only one person is trying."
"Kiss me again and I'll respond."
I let out a quiet sigh.
Okay... If he says so.
Maybe it was the drinks from earlier, because I drank couple of them, or I was just being bold, but I lifted myself on my tip toes again and this time slowly pressed my lips to his soft ones. My hands fisted the soft material of his shirt.
Still nothing.
Was he joking with me?
Before I was able to pull away, I felt his palm on the beck of my neck. He pushed his face closer to mine and sealed our lips together.
A whimper left my lips from the force and I heard a rough sound escape his throat as well. His fingers tangled in my hair and the other hand went to my neck.
The cold metal of the ring on his pinky finger, pressed to my burning skin and I circled my arms around his neck.
Fenix was no gentleman when it came to kissing it seemed. His lips were brutal and bruised mine with a sweet torture.
He tugged on my hair which made me part my lips and moan at the same time, as he pushed his tongue in my mouth.
Oh my...
I have never experienced such emotions in my life. All I wanted was for Fenix to hold me like this and never stop kissing me.
Who would have thought that kissing was actually enjoyable?
My lower back pressed to the cabinet behind me and Fenix's hand tightened around my neck.
The same fraction made me tilt my head back and give him a better access to my mouth.
My head was becoming dizzy while Fenix took his time in devouring every little sound that escaped my throat.
My eyebrows creased upwards when he parted from me but as soon as I felt his lips down my jaw and neck, I glued my body further into him. My back arched and I dug my nails into his biceps.
He must have liked that because he sank his teeth on my skin and soon soothed the same place with his tongue. Gently concealing the slight pain.
His strong hands went to my waist and he held me in place. I tried to move my hips, but Fenix's hold was too strong. Even if he would pin me with one hand, there was no escaping.
One of his hand inched upward and my breath hitched when his warm fingers traveled up my bare skin.
Just before he was able to reach my thin sports bra, a knock on the door startled both of us.
We quickly parted and I smoothed down my clothes.
I watched Fenix run a hand over his face.
The knob of the door started to move and I ran to the door and opened it.
It was Ian.
He was holding his squishy toy in his hands and sleepily looked up at me.
"I had a bad dream, Eli." He confessed and his lips turned in a pout.
"Ohh baby. Get in here." I took him in our room and he grabbed my hand.
"A big monster was chasing me and then ate all of my toys." He said.
"No one's allowed to touch your toys when I'm here." I crouched down and he immediately jumped in my embrace.
"Can I sleep here?"
"Of course, baby." I turned to Fenix and he nodded his head and quickly walked towards the closet. He then got out with clothes in his hands.
"I'll take a shower." He went to the bathroom and closed the door behind him.
My mind was still hazy from the kiss I just shared with Fenix. Okay not just a kiss but a whole make out session. My lips tingled but I tried to take my mind off of it and laid Ian in the middle of the bed.
He clung the toy close to his chest and hid himself under the covers, clearly still scared from the dream.
I laid next to him and pulled him to my body. He buried his face in my neck.
I closed my eyes and tortured myself with pushing away the event from minutes ago.
With that, sleep started to consume my body. The bed dipped on the other side but I was too tired to open my eyes.
Strong arms pulled both me and Ian in a warm embrace when the sleep finally took over my mind.
