Delicate and Ruthless (SERIE FEROCI 11)

Chapter Six

"I'll hang this on the wall."

Napasinghap ako sa sinabi ni Lorden. I immediately took the canvas from him and shook my head. "D-don't do that! It's embarrassing..." I murmured.

Lorden took the painting from me. "This is mine now, Kate. I'll do whatever I want."

I just bit my lower lip and gave up. I quietly watched him as he hung the painting on his wall. He stared at it after that. He looked at me and smirked. "You're about to cry again... such a crybaby." He shook his head.

Umupo na siya sa kama saka humiga. Napalunok na lang ako at nagtungo sa couch. Natigilan lang ako nang bumangon si Lorden. Malamig na tumitig siya sa akin saka ipinatong bisig niya sa tuhod niya.

"Come here, Kate. You'll sleep here beside me," he commanded.

I shook my head. "I prefer sleeping here on the couch. Mas comfortable," bulong ko na lang.

"I don't care. I said sleep here beside me," utos niya pa.

"D-dito na nga lang ako," pagmamatigas ko pa.

"I'm not a patient man, Kate. Come here. Now."

Nagtayuan ang mga balahibo ko dahil sa malamig na boses niya, tila naiinis na. Napakagat na lang ako sa ibabang labi ko at tumayo. Nag-aalangang lumapit ako sa kaniya. I just gasped when he suddenly grabbed my wrist and pulled me to sit beside him. I fidgeted and avoided his intense gaze.

"Magse-sex ba tayo, Lorden? K-kaya mo ba ako pinapatabi?" tanong ko sa mahinang boses.

Lorden looked at me as if I was kidding, then chuckled. "The fuck are you saying, Kate?"

My cheeks burned. "H-hindi ba natin gagawin?" bulong ko pa.

"Not tonight..." He stared at me and smirked. "Why? You want to?" he asked. I don't know why it sounded like he was seducing me or something.

"H-hindi..." bulong ko na lang.

Humawak si Lorden sa braso ko. He pulled me closer to him. I flinched when he touched my waist and pulled me even closer, until there's no space left between us. Mas lalo akong nakaramdam ng kakaiba. My pulse raced. I couldn't look at him anymore.

I gasped when I felt his lips on my shoulder blade. He gently kissed it before he went to my neck and started giving me shallow kisses there. I bit the insides of my cheeks. I felt the familiar tingling sensation in my stomach down to my core. I just gulped and tried to look unaffected.

"Hmm... I'm starting to change my mind though. I don't mind having a quickie before we sleep," he murmured in his sexiest voice and gently bit the sensitive skin on my neck.

"H-huh?"

Lorden chuckled and grabbed my waist. "Still shy, huh."

I gulped when his hand went inside my nightgown. I unconsciously gripped his shirt when he gently caressed my thigh. His rough and calloused hand gave me a weird feeling that I couldn't explain. Kakaiba, parang may kumikiliti na naman sa kalamnan ko.

"Damn. Are you a marshmallow?" he asked all of a sudden.

I blinked and stared at him. "H-huh? Bakit mo natanong?"

"You're fucking soft... I mean, your skin." He gripped my legs. His fingers dug on my soft skin. "It feels like I'll fucking rip them if I'm not careful," he muttered.

My cheeks heated and scratched my nape. "Oh. I-I'm sorry."

Lorden stared at me and tilted his head. "What for?"
