DIAMOND KNOT Detective Atlas Carberry book 2 (completed)

CHAPTER 28

Kumurap-kurap ang talukap ng mga mata ni Aurelia. She was awakened by the snoring sound at the back of her head. She took a deep breath at saka niya iminulat ang kaniyang mata at ang malapad na bintana ng kaniyang silid ang unang bumati sa kaniyang paningin. Ang makakapal nitong mga kurtina to keep the bright light of the sun from coming inside her room lalo pa sa mga sandaling kailangan niyang matulog ng araw.

But at the foot of the heavy curtains, the sun's light seeps through that makes her aware that the sun has risen and it was a new day. And again another deep snore was heard at the back of her head at doon niya napansin ang mabigat na bisig na nakaikot sa kaniyang bewang.

She heard another snore and a sweet smile crept into her face and she smoothed her palm in his arm that was lying across her stomach.

He's mine, ang sabi ng kaniyang isipan habang nakangiti ang kaniyang mga labi at dinadama niya ang presensiya nito sa kaniyang likuran. For the longest time ang mga damdaming hindi niya mapangalanan noon, ang mga damdaming pilit niyang nilalabanan noon, ay nailahad na niya kay Atlas at katulad niya na nagmamahal dito ay ipinagtapat na rin ni Atlas ang pag-ibig nito sa kaniya.

It doesn't matter kung pnag-ilan na siyang babae sa buhay nito. Hindi na importante kung may iba pang babaeng naunang nakasiping nito, ang importante ay ang kasalukuyan at ang pagmamahalan nilang dalawa. She's not going to spoil what they have started nang dahil sa nakaraan. It her new start.

Loving a policeman, ang bulong ng kaniyang isipan. Dati ay ni hindi sumagi sa kaniyang isipan na mangyayari iyung muli. Ang magpalinlang at magmahal ng isang pulis. Ngunit tama nga ang sinabi ni doctor Patricia sa kaniya. Si Atlas ang kaniyang paghilom.

She turned her away as slowly as possible para hindi niya ito magising. With his deep snoring ay masasabi niyang tulog na tulog si Atlas.

He sighed deeply but he was still asleep nang makaikot na ang kaniyang katawan at nakahiga siyang nakaharap dito. Bahagya niyang inilayo ang kaniyang mukha para makita nang husto ang mukha ni Atlas. At magkahalong saya at kilig ang kaniyang naramdaman.

She thought that she was being silly para sa kaniyang nararamdaman dahil sa hindi naman na siya teenager pero, hindi niya maturuan at mapigilan ang kaniyang puso.

He's so handsome, she thought while her eyes feasted at the sight of his sleeping face. There were obvious fine lines on the corner of his eyes. And she remembered those deep set eyes of his crinkles every time he smiles. And those same eyes that gave her that scalding look when he thrusts himself deep inside her. In Atlas' eyes, she felt sexy and beautiful. And she felt safe and loved.

"I love you." Ang kaniyang bulong while she stared lovingly at his face. And suddenly a grin curved into his wide lips. And his eyes crinkled.

"I love you too." Ang sagot nito sa kaniya. Kumunot ang kaniyang noo at niya marahan na kinurot ang dibdib nito.

"Aw!" ang natatawang sabi ni Atlas saka dumilat ang mga mata nitong katulad ng mga labi nito ay nakangiti sa kaniya.

"I thought you are asleep." Ang kaniyang kunwaring galit na sabi rito at saka niya inilapat ang kaniyang mga palad sa malapad nitong dibdib para marahan itong itulak palayo. But his arm hooked her waist and he pulled her closer to his body that the tip of her nipples touched his bare his chest. And her nipples betrayed her when they turned into stiff peaks. And she's not the only one who felt the brush nipples on his chest but also Atlas. And instantly she heard a moan vibrated on his throat.

"Ugh," ang ungol ni Atlas and he pulled her even closer almost crushing her soft breats into his hard chest.

"Ugh, I love how they felt," ang sambit ni Atlas and instantly she felt his rough palm on one of her breast and he began to knead one of them. And that second she was the one who started to moan.
