Beneath the surface: Forbidden Love

Marisela

(Chapter rated 18+)

At some point during the night, I woke up wrapped in Kael's embrace. I had this dying need for some water. My throat felt dry and my entire body was burning up. It didn't help having Kael's large arm draped over my stomach. I didn't want to wake him up, but I desperately needed some water.

Kael began to stir while I tried to fidget my way out of his tight hold. Slowly he's eyes begin to open.

"Sorry," I whisper in the dark. " I didn't mean to wake you, I just really need some water." Kael immediately stretches over and turns on the light. My eyes take a second to adjust to the light.

"You okay?" He asks as he sits up.

"I really need water." I tell him. My body was drenched with sweat. Kael takes one good look at me as if on alert. He's hand immediately shoots to my forehead.

"Fuck Marisela," he hisses, " your burning up."

"I know, I just need some water." I try to reassure him. Kael looks at me wearily before quickly getting up and pouring me a glass of water. As soon as he comes back to the bed I grab the glass right out of his hand instantly gulp down the water in one breath.

"Marisela, I think we should call the doctor." He tells me. I freeze at his words.

No, then that means my heat is starting up again.

"Do you think that my heat is doing this?" I ask him. Kael has the nerve to look away shamefully. I wanted to slap him so hard right now.

"Look the doctor did say a few days." He tries to defend.

"It's only been two." I glare at him. My body starts to heat up again, only this time, it's starts to hurt just a little. The pain growing with each passing minute.

Now? Now, my heat decides to happen. Gosh, what am I supposed to do, I already have the mark- wait...

Oh god.

No. No. No.

"I'll run you a cold bath." Kael says as he rushes to the bathroom not waiting for me to respond. I hear the water in the tub run.

Doctor Blake said it will only get worse now that I wear his mark. The only way now to stop it is to have sex with him.

Am I ready now? To have sex with him.

The past two days have been great with Kael-

"Argh!" A sharp pain shoots throughout my body stopping all thoughts. This one hurt a lot. Kael came running to my side almost instantly.

"Princess, tell me what you want me to do." He pleads, as if I'm the one that holds the key to end both our misery.

Think think think!

Two days? Could I really have fallen for him in two-

Ahhh!

Screw it.

"Do it." I yell at him, "do it now!" Kael looks at me hesitantly but I don't give him a chance to back out as I practically jump his bones, straddling him on his lap, my legs on either side of him. I could feel my dress rise slightly below my bottom, showing enough skin. My lips instantly land on his- catching him off guard- kissing him with every fiber of my being. His lips are cool against my burning skin. When the shock of what I did wears off, Kael starts to kiss me back with a much deeper hunger of my own.

The kiss is different than any other kiss we've shared in the past. Its like an aphrodisiac, mixed with a Pandoras box effect, fireworks glowing inside of me from the touch of his lips. What I was feeling could not be put into words...but
