chapter 23

Darcel

This question was wrong in so many ways, but my anger got better off me when I found that prick towering over my wife. I could tell that Eriantha was scared and was looking for an out, but the moment I came back here,  after what grandfather had to say about the whole situation, the way he insinuated the matter shifting the blame at me,yet again, I  wouldn't have bothered had he not insulted my wife, but he did, he had called her a whore and that made me furious.

Eriantha was unblemished,pure and she was mine. I wanted her in my arms, to take her in every possible way, to mark her as mine and only mine. Instead, I found that brat trying to lure her. Something blew off in me, when I heard him say something about kissing her, and that she should let him have her for one night.

How dare he? 

 That Fucker was trying to get his rotten hands on my wife, but the way he spoke to her in a certain familiar tone, made my unruly mind create images of them together. 

Did they have a past?  Was he her lover?

Doesn't matter, not any longer. She's mine now, my wife, mine to protect,mine to have, and I will crush every impediment, that tries to steal away my Nectar, my personal drug from me. 

'Why do you care Dar? You too have some dirty history. This is a paper marriage. Or, are you worried that your little bride will run away once she gets to know what a brute you are?'

I silenced the voice inside my head, I had no time for reasoning it out,for, I felt raw palpable anger rushing through my veins.

"Tell me Eriantha," I deliberately caressed her cheek, knowing fully well the effect it has on her, "Did I disturb you while you were busy with your...boyfriend? Or should I say, ex-lover?"

Eriantha glared at me, she was definitely hurt by my comment, although her body was reacting differently, I fought hard not to chuckle at her cute reaction. 

 "Does it look like that? He was literally forcing himself on me Darcel, don't you have cameras in this room? Can't you see for yourself?"

I always enjoy her snappy comebacks but this time Eriantha was clearly avoiding me, she almost ducked my arms , which were on either side like a cage.However,  I grabbed her in the moment and placed her right on my lap. Then, I plunged into her lips, like a hungry wolf, something I had been wanting to do from the very beginning.

 God! I had been so eager to get back to her, she was dangerously growing into me like an insatiable addiction. Eriantha responded out of reflex, that's how our bodies always clicked like two missing pieces in a puzzle, like two stones colliding sparking fire. I continued devouring her, grabbing her bun, to pull her even closer, not enough, even this was not enough for me.I desired more, so much more than just kissing her.

"I am not done with you yet Eriantha" my own breathing was hitched as spoke in between the kisses, "Where are you running away to Nectar? Is there anything you desperately need to hide from me? Is there something between the two of you? A rekindled old fire may be?"

The edge in my voice was nasty, Eriantha blinked at me a couple of times, her lips had turned dry.

 Was it fear? Is she scared of me now?

Wow Darcel ! You are such a piece of work...

However, I had no control over my wrath at the moment. I cupped her chin and slid my hand gently down her breast, her lips quivering at my touch didn't go unnoticed by me. I wanted to study her like a sculpture, every muscle, every crevice, every inch of her I wanted to capture her in every possible way.
