Save Me

Chapter 42

Small and delicate kisses are being pressed slowly against my skin. My eyes flutter but I don't manage to open my eyelashes; my whole body is aching and begging for more rest. My bones are too exhausted to move me. The light sentiment of kisses keeps troubling my lovely sleep. I groan in frustration before I hear a soft chuckle in response; I wanted to smile but I don't have the strength. Arms slide around me pulling me back in someone's chest. My eyes keep being shut not offering me the chance to see who it is. I feel fingers touch my body but instead of nervousness, I feel fire crackling under my skin.

Fingers run and dance through my hair; pulling it slightly or tugging at it filling me with goosebumps. My breath gets quicker and swallower by every second. Though my eyes are too heavy to open; my body is hurting, not being willing to move and respond. The sensual emotions overwhelm me; flaring me. My first clenches grasping the sheet and forming a petite ball inside it as I feel his nose run my skin from my collarbone up to my ear.

"wake up baby," A soft voice speaks and a frown troubles my brow. I don't hear anything else; hope unfolds inside of me of the probability of the continuation of my lovely sleep. A smile of appreciation graces my lips briefly as my lashes lock letting me fall asleep again.

A finger touches my shoulder and pulls the fabric that covers it; leaving my skin exposed. Kisses are placed there and all over me again with more force than before. His body cages mine causing the temperature to get higher. It's too early for that. I bury my teeth in my lower lip as all of my cells tense and clench in anticipation. My mouth parts attempting to allow the words to slip out of my lips and convince him of my crucial need to rest. Although, all that escapes is a low moan followed by his giggle.

"is that how you want to play?" I feel his grin against my skin but my face can't mirror his; I want to sleep.

His lips reach my neck biting my earlobe; a wave of the known inflamed feeling he can only create in me; blooms. I attempt to slide off of his tight grip but just when I have the least success, his arms wrap around me. He brings me back connecting my body with his own tighter than before. His warmth is blazing me; like it does every single time his skin contacts with my own. He kisses my sensible, soft place under my ear bringing me back.

The first time he kissed me there, it was the first time his lips touched mine ever; the first time I felt his fire fighting my ice that was dominating my heart. The loss of my life was freezing me yet his touch reversed the effects. And now, I'm in danger to get burn by his fire.

His kisses repeat their previous actions and knowing that I won't bear it; I hide my head in the pillow. He lets me go yet his fingers touch my skin and begin to travel. My eyes snap open as all my sleepiness fades away in a flash; I turn to him in complete shock and bewilderment. Without losing his chance, he grasps me and forcefully places me next to the bed; with one quick move. The moment the coldness of the floor contacts my feet; I lose my balance. He saves me from collapsing and holds me firmly; I don't take a glimpse of the speed of his moves and actions. Our eyes connect and I notice the grin that paints his beautiful face; his eyes are sparkling with joy.

"That was easy," He mutters with a smirk; I narrow my eyes at him and throw myself back in bed. His arms, which were already on me, bring me back in place before my skin can feel the soft fabric of the sheets against it.

"I want to sleep,"

"It's late already, you need to wake up," I roll my eyes in complete disappointment at his words. I bring my hands and caress my eyes in an unfortunate attempt to get rid of the dizziness that has been washed over me.

"what time is it?" I ask softly, not being sure he actually heard me.

"Nine," My eyes fly open before a huge scowl forms.
