Chapter 0191
I don’t understand why Liam would do so much for me. Doubling his patrols, giving me a place to stay, planning to buy me clothes, feeding me, giving me medical treatment. No one does all that just because a person needs it. It that were the case, my family and I wouldn’t have suffered for years as rogues.
I’m not sure I trust his reasons, but he does seem genuine that he wants me to be safe.
“I trust him.” Alessia says. “There was nothing deceitful in his scent when he was talking.”
“You trust him? We don’t even know him Alessia.‘
I feel her almost fidgeting in my mind. ‘Alessia?”
‘I don’t know why, but I trust both of them.‘
I sigh. I trust her and she trusts them. And Cara and Artemis also trust them, so for now, I’ll let it go. I’ll just have to figure out a way to pay him back for all of his assistance.
I finish getting ready, continuing to wear clothes that hide my scars and leaving my long hair down so the scars on my neck aren’t noticeable. I would like to get my hair cut, but Liam said he likes it long. I admit, I enjoyed last night when he was running his fingers through it. It felt nice.
I walk out of my room and across the hall to his room. His door is open slightly and I’m about to knock when it swings open and he nearly runs me over. He grabs me before he could knock me down. “Geez Angel, I could have hurt you!” In the instant when our bodies collide, Liam wraps his arm around my waist, lifting me off the ground, holding me so that we are eye to eye. His other hand is against the door jamb keeping us from falling. I’m mesmerized by his sage colored eyes. My heart rate increases but I’m not sure if it’s because of my near fall or our close proximity.
The heat of his body seeps into mine, my hands on are on his chest and I’m reminded once again of his strong, muscular body.
“Baby girl. You need you to stop looking at me like that.”
“Like what?” I ask softly, licking my lips.
His eyes track down to watch my tongue before returning to mine, considerably darker than they were a moment ago.
His voice is lower, somehow soft and growly at the same time, “Like you want to taste me.”
I look at his lips. I do want to taste them. I swallow hard. His scent surrounding me is making my head spin. That’s the only excuse for what I do next. I lean in and gently slide my tongue between the seem of his lips.
I feel his body tense up, his arm around me pulling me impossibly closer, his eyes. never leaving mine. His lips part and his tongue slides out to meet mine. Electric tingles shoot through me and a ripple of pleasure slides down my spine as my eyes drift close. His hand comes up into my hair, gently tugging my head to the side and deepening the kiss. He tastes of fresh air and sunshine. I didn’t know. that was possible, but there it is.
It takes me a moment to realize the whimpers I hear are coming from me. I can feel more than hear the growls rumbling in Liam’s chest as he deepens the kiss even more, his tongue teasing mine in an intricate dance. The sound makes my nipples harden and sends jolts of pleasure straight to my core. A warmth I’ve never felt before causes an uncomfortable feeling between my legs, a pressure that needs to be released. I wrap my legs around his waist, feeing a dampness in my panties.
He pulls away, and I can tell he can smell my arousal. He puts his forehead. against mine. “Baby girl, we have to stop.”
I’m immediately embarrassed by my actions. Of course he wouldn’t want me. My body is a scarred mess and his is perfection. I’m sure he could have anyone he wanted, someone gorgeous just like him.
