Last Elysium

Surprises in the dark

The soft glow of the moonlight illuminating the room through the glass windows and the cold breeze touching your skin sent shivers down your spine, your cheeks were still tainted with pink blush, and Damien's piercing gaze penetrated your soul. His sharp features and incredible physique were enough to make any woman sweep off their feet, he looked amazing in his button-down shirt. He was like a supermodel straight out of a Vogue magazine cover. Y/n couldn't help but admire him and he was way out of Adrian's league, the ex that betrayed you before, you felt fortunate enough to have such a man even if it was just a contractual marriage, to begin with, but there is no doubt that Y/n was starting to fall for him but afraid to admit it.

Damien noticed the way you admired him and he still had that mischievous grin plastered on his face. "Are you done staring now darling?", he asked with a hint of teasing in it. You snapped out of your trance and averted your gaze and your cheeks are now turning into a shade of red from embarrassment. He chuckled and started stroking your hair, his hand felt rough but his touch was tender and caring. "Aww, are you blushing my dear? To be honest, it made you look even more adorable now", he said softly while his gaze remained fixated on you.

You managed to muster a small smile, attempting to play off your embarrassment. "Maybe I am, maybe I'm not", you retorted, your voice slightly shaky. Damien's grin widened, and he pulled you closer, his eyes never leaving yours.

"Darling, we may have started this as a contractual arrangement, but you can't deny the chemistry between us", he whispered, his breath sending a tingling sensation down your spine. "And I must admit, it's becoming increasingly difficult to stick to the terms of our little agreement", he added.

You felt a mix of excitement and anxiety at his words. The contractual marriage had been a practical solution for both of you – a business deal with no room for emotional entanglements. But here you were, caught in a whirlwind of emotions you hadn't anticipated.

Damien's fingers traced gentle patterns on your skin as he continued, "I've noticed the way you look at me, the way your heartbeat quickens when I'm near. Tell me, Y/n, are you falling for me?", he asked as he waited for a response from you. Y/n hesitated, torn between honesty and the fear of vulnerability. "Damien, we agreed—". He placed a finger on your lips, silencing you. "Rules were made to be broken, darling. Sometimes, it's okay to let go and follow your heart", he said with utmost confidence.

The room seemed to shrink, the air thick with unspoken desires. Damien leaned in, his lips dangerously close to yours. The magnetic pull between you two was undeniable, and as his lips brushed against yours, you surrendered to the intoxicating sensation.

In that stolen moment, the moonlight bore witness to a connection that transcended the boundaries of contracts and logic. It was a chapter in your story that unfolded unexpectedly, leaving you with a choice – to embrace the blossoming emotions or retreat to the safety of predefined agreements.

And as the night unfolded, the room echoed with whispered confessions and the promise of something more profound than the contractual bond that had brought you together. Your heart raced as he inched closer to you, his warm breath gently caressing the side of your face and neck. You felt a tingly sensation course throughout your body. There were hidden desires, passion, and love behind those alluring emerald orbs. Damien's gaze shifted towards your soft and pinkish lip.

He closed the gap between you two and you could inhale the expensive musky perfume that he used, the heavy scent filled your nostrils and it smelled peculiarly amazing. You then heard a husky and deep voice speaking to you which caught you by surprise. "Close your eyes for me", he said in a slightly demanding tone. You nodded and closed your eyes before you felt something soft pressed against your lips and when you opened your eyes you saw Damien kissing you affectionately. Y/n flustered a bit but decided to kiss him back, he wrapped his arms around your waist and held you in place.

You both shared a romantic and lovely moment as if time had stopped and the only thing that mattered were the two people that are bound to be together for eternity—or perhaps not. Y/n looked at him and noticed the burning passion within him which was something unusual for Damien but you didn't mind it. Your bodies are both in sync, he pulled away and carried you in his arms before gently placing you down on the bed.

He gave you a charming smile that made your heart flutter, you covered your eyes as soon as he started unbuttoning his shirt with ease. You heard a chuckle and when you peeked through the gaps of your fingers, you froze in place. He was staring right at you, just a few inches away and your gaze fell upon his upper body, your jaw dropped, and gulped at the sight. You almost fainted when you witnessed it. Damien's body was sculpted perfectly by the Greek Gods themselves and it left you speechless.

"You seemed surprised, is something wrong?", he asked curiously but it was evident that he knew what was wrong in that situation yet decided to play innocent. He just smiled before leaning in for another passionate kiss, his scent was so addictive and the taste of his lips was sweet and it felt soft as well. Y/n could feel the heat gradually building up between them as his body pressed against yours and you could feel his weight on you. You close your eyes while his hand roams around your body, his touch is gentle yet a bit sensual and his knuckles brush against your cheek before he begins to trail down towards your neck, planting wet kisses all over it, and starts nibbling on it as well. A soft moan escaped through your lips and it seemed like music to his ears as he continued. You lose track of time as you let yourself engulfed in the brink of pleasure.

The sunshine entered the room and you could feel the warmth of the morning sun, you slowly opened your eyes and realized that it was already a brand new day, the memories from last night were still painted vividly in your mind and it made you flushed a bit, you looked around and your husband was nowhere to be found and you still had your clothes on from last night before you let out a sigh of relief. Y/n was glad that Damien was a man who had respect for his partner, you stretched and yawned for a bit before you got up from bed and then you noticed something from the corner of your eye that caught your attention.

"Eh? What's that?", you asked yourself as you approached the table in the room to take a closer look at it and you smiled a bit when you saw it.
