Forever Yours

Emma melted in his embrace.

His arms tightened around her as if he would never let go. Emma breathed him in , marvelling at how safe he made her feel.

The world around them was rejoicing while they fell for each other in silence.

"You smell like safety and. .home." Eyes shut, she whispered in his shirt.

"And you smell like. . .mine." His gentle voice made her want to to something stupid . .like stand on the top of the mountain and yell on top of her lungs!

"Mmmm," she smiled ," I think Diana knows about us."

"Yes. I told her myself."

The words were calmly spoken but it completely spooked her out because she pulled back, her eyes wide.

"What?! What did you tell her? What did she say? I can't believe—mmmph!"

He had covered her mouth with his large hand.

"I told her i. .," He paused, " like this girl." He said while looking in her eyes ,"and. . . yes, that's about it." He shrugged and Emma ripped this hand off her mouth.

"Like her?! You only like me? Is that so?" She challenged, not at all happy with the word. Diana seemed to have been forgotten at the moment.

All that mattered was the stupid like!

What did like represent anyway?!

A light smile filtered on his handsome face as he watched her fume at him.

Maximus glanced down at her fisted hands and then slowly, he took her hands in his—her protest mellowing down a little as he slid his fingers through hers . . pulling her up close! Flushed against him, her heart thudded hard.

"You don't want to know what I feel right now. " His eyes darkened making her gulp ," I wish to take you in my room and ravage you however I please but then that would be giving in too soon. I want to dance with the swan for a little while. .watch her bloom. .watch her unravel. ." He trailed off, closing in the distance . . claiming her mouth.

Her knees felt weak and if it wasn't him holding her, she would have fallen to the floor.

The kiss didn't seem to be so innocent like the the first for he moved in on her , forcing her to back up against the wall—lifting her hands and pinning them on the wall—he kissed her deep and sweet.

Breaths mingled , languish sighs uttered, fiery demand turning into possessiveness—Emma felt the passion to the toes! He kept going deep—tasting her in a mad way!

When she felt like she couldn't breath. .

He broke the kiss but still didn't let her breath or call down as his hot mouth moved towards her neck—giving her open mouthed kisses.

"You belong to me, Emma." He breathed against her delicate skin.

"Do I?" She managed to answer somehow and then gasped!

He bit her neck slightly!

"Wrong answer! You belong to me." His feverish kisses continued along her neck and Emma wanted to never leave this place.

Could he kiss her till eternity?

Till nothing made sense . .

Maximus didn't let her out of sight.

He held her hand through the occasion . Emma felt small in his presence but his assuring smile did wonders to her crumbling confidence.
