The Emerald Manor

Chapter 28

"Now you know." His voice echoing her own. "This is the man you have, the tortured, manipulated, coward."

Her gaze steeled into his, her palm cupping his cheek. Memorizing his face. The pain, the immense pain just behind his eyes.

"I am yours." Her voice grazed his ear. "Only you."

His steely disposition receded, the warmth returning to his body. His forehead finds hers. "You would have me just like this? I am broken. Don't let the walls fool you."

"We can be broken together." He enveloped her body with his. Their legs tangled together. His hands tangle in her hair. Cora ran her fingers through his hair.

Draco cautiously brought his lips close to hers, stopping just before reaching them. As though asking permission. She flicked her eyes up at his, pressing her lips carefully to his. His fingers cascaded down her back. Rubbing her sensually, in slow methodical movements.

His kisses were delicate, each one more meaningful than the last. His hands found her hips, knotting his fingers through the fabric of her underwear. Cora's hands were doing the same to his briefs. They slid the last bit of clothing off each other's body. Refusing to break their kiss.

He moved his hand behind her head to cradle it before slowly rolling her beneath him. He pulled back from her lips. Their eyes locked on each other, both silent.

She saw the blue returning to his eyes, but there was still a sadness tucked away; just behind them. Draco needed this. He found her center with his tip, moving into her. Moving an inch at a time. He took his time before he was fully inside of her.

He paused to study her face once more. Her features were warm, her hair lining her shoulders. Her moans were sensual, paced as he watches her eyes drift back. His thrusts were steady and controlled.

He watched her with each movement, afraid she may disappear if he looked away. He quickened between her legs.

Her palms reached up, cupping his face pulling it close to hers.

"Kiss me Draco."

He headed her wish dropping down into her kiss. Faster with each thrust. Their moans of pleasure intermingled. Cora was feeling the familiar tug in her center as it built up. Her fingers kneaded desperately into his back, convulsing on him. Moaning his name into his lips.... "Draco."

He moved at a determined speed, before finding his release inside of her. Her name was a ghost across his lips. "Cora...."

The morning sun soaked into the bedroom waking Cora up, Draco's arms still locked around her.

For once she was up before him, she didn't think she could get out of bed without waking him, so she contentedly snuggled up closely to him. She felt his nose nuzzle into her hair; he mumbled into her head.

"Good morning my beautiful girl." Draco seemed more at ease this morning, relaxed.

She cooed into his chest. "Good morning. I hope you slept well. You'll usually up before me."

"I haven't slept that well in a long time."

"That makes me happy. What happened to your two-week waiting rule?" It seemed like he forgot about her punishment.

He mumbled into her hair. "I would break every rule for you."

She traced lines along his chest. "I wish you didn't have to go and for so long. What time do you need to leave?"

"If I could lay in this bed with you for the rest of time, it wouldn't be long enough. I should head out shortly though, it's too far to apparate so I need to catch the train." He combed the hair out of her face.
