Chapter 41

                                    

                                          
When he pulled away, something was gleaming in his eyes, something which I have seen numerous times before, however, this time the intensity was stronger than any other time.
My mouth felt a scarcity of liquid, and the breath was restrained inside my chest. His gaze continued to bore into mine. The look that appeared on his face was solid and fierce which made my heartbeat erratic. His rugged countenance, sharp jaws, and hard muscles were accentuated in the dim light of the house.
Whenever he was around me there is the same feeling of passion, a yearning to touch his skin.
I cleared my throat.
" I...I should go to my dormant now." 
The chiseled face of Aiden that was illuminated in the faint light was intensifying the emotion he was feeling. Time and again, I had witnessed this emotion in his eyes which he controlled effectively, but not this time. He had endeavored to not surge the feeling on the surface but the influencing power had not been under his discretion today.
"Yes...you should."
Neither of us shifted and kept staring at each other.
" Emerald," slowly, torturously his hand reached my cheek and caressed it tentatively. The atmosphere altered from tense to fervent in no time. 
" Emerald..I..." 
" Aiden."
My whole body quivered under his piercing gaze, I was imprisoned in the deep thick wilderness eyes and it was a wonderful feeling. An image of us tangled together in the bed flashed in my head and a blush crept through my cheeks.
" Emerald," was his breathless whisper. His hand wrapped around me and swept me off the floor, swiftly and gently. The moment he placed his mouth on me, there no region of my mouth was left to be explored by his tongue. 
" Aiden....this.....I...." My voice appeared raw and breathless, and his hand tightened around me. What did I want to explain? More important, how can I explain when even I couldn't understand it.
" Not here," perhaps he succeeded in deciphering my need. He ascended to the stairs while carrying me in his arms, his eyes never languishing the vehemence while they remained fastened with mine. To be honest, I didn't know what the precise need I was feeling, however, there was a certain eagerness that this desire had to be attained, and Aiden recognized the necessity and he was adamant to deal with it.
In the fervent haze, I didn't realize we reached the Aiden room. 
He glimpsed at me and pushed open the gigantic hard wooden door. The strong redolence of masculinity and wood flooded the room. The lights were nearly all extinguished except a yellow light above his king-size bed and the moonlight which shone in the room from the opened curtains of a large glass window. 
He unhurriedly and gently placed me on the soft bed as he towered above me. My body always felt cold whenever his arms were kept bereft from encircling me in his embrace, just like right now. The way he was looking at me was setting ablaze fire in my core.
"Aiden.....I need you," at lightning speed, he was all over me, the soft materials of his shirt melted in the heat that our bodies eliciting, and his hard muscles pressed against me. My hands flew in the air and found his face, I pulled his head, fastening our mouths. He bites my bottom lip and wandered his hand inside the fabric of my top, which soon removed the fabric from my body in one swift tug. Promptly, his mouth moved to my neck, and then his kisses covered my stomach, and when he finished his remarkable assault, his lips caress the most sensitive part of my body, my cleavage. My finger gripped the sheet tightly and my toes curled from the amount of pleasure I felt.
