When Leonard had her back pushed against the wall of her room, a small gasp escaped her mouth. Somewhere at the back of her mind she knew he would have followed her to talk to her due to the quick dash she made after the carriage"s door was opened but this is not what she had in her mind. The night was cold, the whisper of the clouds that it would come to rain soon yet the atmosphere in the room felt like it had turned to one of the hot noon weather of Mythweald. Apart from the sound of their breath and the rustling of trees far away from the mansion which was like the music of the night, they stared into each other"s eyes.
"Don"t run away from me," said Leonard his voice collected yet his expression stated otherwise.
"I wasn"t," she replied back but her answer didn"t suffice the slight annoyance that had surfaced when she stepped out and ran inside the mansion.
"I won"t let you run away even if you wanted to. You know that right, Bambi," he whispered the endearing name he had given her since the time they were young and naive. Stepping closer to her, he ran his hand over her cheek, grazing it gently while he saw her eyes close, "Running away will only make me chase you that much over. Do you know how lovely you look tonight?" at his question, her eyes fluttered open.
He leaned forward and placed his full lips on her lips. Kissing it once then twice, licking to feel the tender skin that felt like blood. Pulling back he touched her bottom lip with his finger to see the skin to have formed red from possible biting.
When he parted his lips as he went to dive back into the kiss, he saw her part her lips so ready for him that made his slacks tight out of the mere sight of her willingness.
Pecking her lips, he pulled her to him so that the wall didn"t support her anymore. The door which was open, he slid it back such that it shut itself close so that no one would come in. Pulling her towards the bed, he made her turn such that her back could face him.
She felt him place his hands on either side of her shoulders, leaning forward to whisper in her ear, "Can I love you a little more tonight, Vivi?"
"L-little?"
"Yes," he said next to her ear, his hand slid down from her shoulder touch her back, "Just a little for tonight. Is that okay?" She gulped as her fingertips turned cold out of nervousness.
Taking her silence as a yes, she felt him begin to pull the strings of her gown which had been tied from behind. One lace was pulled after another and the more it was undone, the more it loosened. Slowly he turned her around when he was done removing the lace, enough to remove the gown without much difficulty. Next came the stomacher and then the gown was pushed down with his lean fingers that dusting it off with ease from her shoulders.
Helping her out of it. She stood at with the sheer petticoat and soon it came off too. He took her to bed.
"Leo," she whispered shyly, "Won"t you-won"t you take your clothes off too?" she asked, seeing him chuckle she fluttered her eyes down.
It wasn"t the first time he would be seeing her naked, it was the second time for him but the last her clothes had come off, Leonard was dressed completely. Wondering if it was going to be the same this time, she had asked him.
He moved the hair away from her forehead to place his lips there before pulling away, "Won"t you help me?"
"I can?" she chewed the side of her cheek.
He raised his hands as if waiting for her which she took a cue by pus.h.i.+ng the jacket first. Though she had bravely asked the question, her hands trembled while going to b.u.t.ton his s.h.i.+rt. She was able to unb.u.t.ton only two of them which took more than a minute before she felt her hands being held by his.
Didn"t he want to take his s.h.i.+rt off? asked Vivian in her mind.
"It might take the whole night if I let you undress me, Vivi," one side of his lips pulled up to a smile and she blushed. Holding her chin, he angled her face before sliding his tongue into her lips.
She could feel his warm tongue push into her mouth, rubbing her tongue as she tasted him to feel her mind go numb. The more his tongue lingered in her mouth, that much more she could taste the sweetness of the win like the dewdrop in the morning gra.s.s.
Laying her down with a pillow under her head he gazed down at her the way she looked at him now only fired his blood, pumping it faster. Vivian who looked at him in hazy eyes looked startled when he tore out his s.h.i.+rt without opening the b.u.t.tons.
"I don"t want some mere b.u.t.tons getting in my way with you," he discarded the s.h.i.+rt from his body and threw it down the bed.
Soon he kissed her lips, peppering them down to her neck which turned to wet kisses. He sucked and licked the skin on her neck, bite it which earned him a gasp before soothing it with the tongue. Her breathing quickened when his lips touched the swell of her breast.
When he bit the skin there, she couldn"t help but clutch her hand at the sting that his teeth had caused. Giving little kisses, his lips touched the tip of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s which made her sink down further in her bed. But that didn"t stop Leonard from putting the dark bud in his mouth. Vivian closed her eyes at the feeling of his mouth on her breast.
He heard her sudden intake of breath after he was done gently sucking and licking, he blew air on it to see it harden. He gave the same attention to another breast, sucking and licking it to hear her soft sigh coming out of her pink lips. Going down the valley of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, he traced his lips down her stomach and to kiss her hip bones. His hand smoothly glided down her stomach, making way between her legs when she suddenly crossed both her legs.
"You don"t want to?" he asked innocently. What was she supposed to say to something like that? His previously well kept combed hair had been ruffled back to his normal style and it only stole her heart away, "I will be gentle," he promised, his hand inched towards her wet core.
Not even half of his finger had entered her that he heard her cry out. She was a virgin, a virgin who had never been touched so it was understandable that she would find it uncomfortable.
"It hurts," she complained. Her eyebrows had furrowed in worry and the slight pain she felt. Moving back up, Leo went to lay down next to her. He kissed her on lips once again taking his time for her to calm down.
