Xu Mey"s heart quivered when his hot breath grazed her skin. Ye Jie angled his head as his lips came down to claim hers.
Xu Mey"s body instead of stiffening, convulsed. His lips were softer than she remembered them to be. He was gently biting on her bottom lip. And there was a lot of teasing making Xu Mey close her eyes.
This was the time when she didn"t want to avoid his touch at all. The way his tongue licked her bottom lip, biting it and pulling at it made her gasp as the b.u.t.terflies in her stomach turned into a searing desire and a feeling of pleasure engulfed her body.
His hands encircled around her waist and pulled her closer. Xu Mey wanted him to pull even closer, she wanted to feel the warmth of his body burning her into ashes. She wanted his peculiar scent to encapsulate her body and senses.
It was like Ye Jie heard her thoughts and pulled her so close that there was no s.p.a.ce left between them. This public display of affection was rather new for Xu Mey but Ye Jie had caged her senses so deeply that she didn"t even feel the seething gazes of envy and disdain around.
For her, he was the only person there and for him, she was the only one that mattered. When Xu Mey was breathless, Ye Jie reluctantly parted away from her lips. His thumb fondled with her bottom lip as he said, "Let"s continue later." It felt like a promise to Xu Mey and she wanted him to keep his promise.
Qi Guan had efficiently taken Ye Jie"s luggage to the car. When Xu Mey turned to leave, there was a hitch in her stride as she felt his warm hand intertwining with her own. He looked at her and smiled as the sides of his brown eyes crinckled up in a familiar manner. Now that Xu Mey noticed, she realized that he was still handsome but not like his usual self.
He had dark circles around his eyes, and he looked lethargic. It looked like he worked extra hard to come back home earlier than planned. "But why?" She asked herself. "For me?" Her heart felt a tug at this thought.
She wasn"t feeling as much pain in her ankle while walking beside him as she did before. Whether the painkillers were working or Ye Jie"s touch or presence was acting like a painkiller, it was unknown. But it made it easy to hide her wound from him. So, Xu Mey was thankful.
They climbed in the backseat of the Rolls Royce. And Qi Guan started the car. As they just had left the airport, Ye Jie said, "Qi Guan…" He didn"t have to say it twice for his a.s.sistant to get his meaning. Qi Guan instantly pressed a b.u.t.ton as the part.i.tion raised up leaving Ye Jie and Xu Mey with privacy.
Xu Mey was frowning when she saw the part.i.tion raising but she understood what he wanted to do in the next moment when Ye Jie pulled her from the hand he was holding. Xu Mey"s whole body crashed into him as he adjusted her on his lap. Xu Mey parted her lips to protest but her lips were claimed by him in a fierce kiss.
As his lips claimed hers in abandon, the b.u.t.terfly kisses were thrown out the window. There was no teasing or coaxing left. His one hand was on Xu Mey"s back pulling her closer while the other hand secured her neck. The hand around her neck plunged into her long hair controlling the kiss. As if to scream to her: "You are mine. And I missed you more than I can say in words."
There was no way to run anymore and oddly enough, Xu Mey had no desire to run as well. She wanted him to claim her. For the first time in her life, she wanted someone to mark her as his.
Ye Jie"s hot tongue traced the seam of her lip making her gasp and taking advantage of her opening, his tongue darted inside her mouth to play. Xu Mey"s heart was like a fish out of water, flapping around to survive. Her legs were like overcooked noodles, ready to buckle any minute but it was a good thing that she was sitting otherwise, she would have fallen to the ground at this moment.
He made her weak inside with just his moist but hot tongue. Even she had any thoughts of resistance, his irresistible scent and warm, sweet lips were enough to say her otherwise.
He raised his head a bit to catch his breath. "Is it just I or my Baby has become even more intoxicating than before?" His voice was deeper than usual, huskier. It made her heart quiver uncontrollably.
Before she could retort, he smothered her lips again. He wasn"t kissing her anymore. He was devouring her. His tongue explored her mouth leisurely. While her emotions touched another level of ecstasy that was unknown to her.
Like a patient person, his tongue guided hers to explore. And that tango of their tongues made a moan escape her mouth involuntarily. Xu Mey"s body stiffened when she realized that the embarra.s.sing noise came from her own self. She tried to push him away but Ye Jie understood her intention and pulled her closer.
"There is no such thing as shame and bashfulness between a husband and wife. I want you to see me at my most vulnerable state just like I want you to lean your head on my shoulder." This was another blow to Xu Mey"s poor heart. It was so jittery that Xu Mey thought she might end up at a hospital at this rate.
This time he didn"t claim her lips instead, he buried his face in the crook of her neck. He inhaled her lavender scent as a groan escaped his mouth. He kissed a soft spot behind her earlobe. Once didn"t seem enough. Therefore, he kissed again. First, his soft and moist lips kissed then he bit at the same spot lightly and then he licked. He was repeating the process while Xu Mey was losing her mind all over again. She held his arms to support herself but his tenderness was melting her into a heated marshmallow.
She was not only burning with desire anymore, but her body was also aching in need. Need to be held. A need to be cherished. A need to be devoured.
Ye Jie"s hand kept fondling with her back but he didn"t cross any further line than that. How he was controlling himself from owning her was completely out of his mind as well.
