"Thanks for your praise. In fact, being shameless also takes courage." Duke walked towards the bed in a carefree manner, wearing a cunning smile. The Duke who was usually cold appeared very gentle in front of Belinda.
"You are good at finding excuses for your lewdness." Belinda turned around with the thought that he had already dressed.
"Women don't like men who are not bad. Isn't that true? I'm just doing my best to cater to the needs and preference of women." Although Duke was not a slick talker, that didn't mean he didn't know how to talk to please women at all. He might not be as eloquent as Edward, but having stayed with him for so many years made him learn some of his skills.
"An excuse to cover up your obscenity, huh? Who says that all women like bad men?"
Belinda never lost over verbal arguments except if the opponent was the sissy man, Rain.
"Are you saying that you like good men just like me?" Duke suddenly let out a warm and heartfelt laugh. It was something unusual for him as he was known to be a cold man.
"You are a narcissist." Belinda narrowed her eyes and looked at him mockingly. She gave him a quick once-over and realized that he indeed had the looks to be narcissistic. She pouted about that fact. She wasn't aware of how her expression made her looks even more beautiful to Duke that it made him lose his control. He lit up the fire in instant. One swift move from him and she was already in his arms. Then passionate kisses followed.
Duke's kisses were more like his personality, as they were like cold breezes that caressed her heart. She trembled with her eyes wide open in his arms. She gazed at his handsome face, slowly closed her eyes and kissed him back.
Duke was overjoyed for her reaction. He kissed her with more tenderness, tasting her and carefully tracing her lips with his. He wanted to make her completely lose for him. He wanted her heart to only beat for him.
Belinda unwittingly wrapped her arms around his neck. There was no use denying that this man was special to her. He could ignite her. And since she couldn't drive him away from her heart, she had decided to indulge herself to something amorous this time.
It wasn't that easy to love someone. On contrary, it was hard to the extent that one could forget how to make proper choices. Although you clearly knew that you were attracted by him or her, you still appeared like you had no feelings for him or her. Showing off that love was even harder. Was it the common trend in the current society? Was hypocrisy the new black that even expressing love had become a luxury among all?
The passion had heightened between Duke and Belinda, and kisses were not enough to feed their hunger anymore. It was like love was holding a trigger and one move from its finger would make everything lose control.
"Can I?" Duke was slightly panting when he whispered in her ear. Noticeable veins were pulsing on his forehead as he tried to hold on to the last string of his control. He was holding her body against him firmly as it felt like his sexual needs for her would kill him painfully any moment.
"What?" Belinda was still lost as she looked at him bewildered. She wouldn't expect that her puzzled look appeared all the more attractive to him. His kisses were more eager compared to his loving touches seconds ago. He had doubts about moving further because he recalled that she had her period several days ago. The idea was such a whammy as he was barely making it through his need for her anymore. Well anyway, forgot it. She was too beautiful. He was going to get her. He should and he would.
It was not until Belinda felt something cold caressing her body that she regained her senses. How could she not understand what he was asking for! She replied to him with more passionate kisses.
Being harassed by a drunkard several nights ago had her troubled with disgrace. She wanted to turn the table this time. She wanted to be loved. She should feel it or otherwise, she would stay believing that she was dirty. It was only when she was with Duke, she felt she was needed.
