Chapter Eighteen

~~Darius’ Apartment~~

    I groaned as I woke up from a dreamless sleep. My body ached all over. I pulled the pillow out from under my head and covered my head with it trying to get away from the light coming in through the windows.

    “Hey... I was wondering when you’d wake up.” Darius’ voice came playfully to me. The bed dipped as he sat down beside me. I felt his hand stroke my spine. “How do you feel this morning?” He voice hinted to a pain he was feeling.

    I lifted up an edge of the pillow so I could look at him. “I’m sore but other than that fine.” I reassured him which he immediately relaxed. He smiled as he twisted and put both his hands on my back. Slowly he started to knead every one of my sore muscles. I closed my eyes and relaxed to the feeling of his hands working magic on my back.

    The bed moved and then I felt Darius straddle my rear end. Soon his hands dug a bit deeper into my muscles. His hands slid underneath my wings to reach those muscles. I moaned and felt his smile through his hands. Whenever he hit just the right spot that needed work, my tail would flick against the sheets.

    “Are you still feeling sore?”

    “Umm... You’re wonderful.”

    I felt him move and I felt his forearms rested under my wings against my back. “You didn’t answer my question, but thank you for the compliment.” His fingers moved to the base of my wings and massaged a bit. “So... How do you feel?”

    “So not worthy of you right now. My body feels so good because of your magical hands.”

    “Oh magical huh? I think I love your choice of words.” His hands spread wide and moved out and down my arms. “How's that for magical?” I moaned loudly and felt myself purring as he stroked my arms again. He chuckled. “Guess that answers that.”

    Darius continued his massaging assault as he turned around, moved the sheets away, and massaged my legs. He laughed every time my tail flicked about when he hit another spot that he then lavished with attention. I wiggled and squirmed when he was messing with my feet. He found it really funny when he did that and found it so fun that he continued till I bucked him off of me.

    “You... You...uhh... You...” I tried to be mad at him, but I couldn’t. No matter how much I hate to be tickled, the way he does it just felt good. It felt playful and caring. I had to bite back the smile that wanted to spread across my face.

    Darius raised up on his side of the bed with a grin like the cheshire cat. “You know you loved it.” He cradled his head in his hand with his elbow on the bed. “You better?”

    “Yes thank you.”

    He leaned over and gave me a quick peck on my lips. “Good.” He butted his forehead to mine as he looked into my eyes. I saw pain there and uncertainty. “I hated when Parro froze last night. He looked like he was caught watching something horrible. When he snapped out, he basically yelled at me to hold you as quick as I could. I didn’t know what was going on. You looked peaceful enough, but when I touched you, your whole body relaxed at once.” A tear escaped from my eye and I couldn’t speak.

    He pulled me to him and held me as if he almost lost me. I held onto him too not wanting to remember the feeling I felt when I wanted the man gone. I was rejecting him with every ounce of strength I had. It was so indescribably painful. I just want to forget it and move on.

    “I think from now on, I should hold you at night. All night.” His head rested on my shoulder. I nodded holding him closer. I didn’t want to feel that ever again. The pain. The violation. The wrongness of it all. “That makes me feel better. Thank you.”

    After a while I pulled back and Darius lifted his head. Once he was looking at me, I pushed our lips together. We both melted into each other almost instantly. I could feel that he felt the ache in his heart too. An ache that only feels better when we are together. There’s something between us that is joining us together and it feels right. We feel right.

    Slowly I felt his hand glide gracefully and delicately down my body. Around my butt. I moved my leg to rest on his side and his hands went around the back side of my leg. I moaned loving how he was touching me right now. It was arousing and very intimate.

    Darius pulled away and we were both breathless. “I think...” He swallowed hard fighting what he was feeling. “We should stop and breathe for a bit. Not have our thoughts clouded by what happened.” He groaned stroking my leg more. “Though I want to, we shouldn’t.”

    I moaned as I laid back on the bed. “I want to too, but I know you’re right.”

    He leaned forward bringing his hand up to my face. “But we can still kiss each other for a bit longer.” He said with a grin as his lips came back to mine. He kept his hands away from anything below my waist. He did tickle me a bit once and awhile just to keep us playful and not wanting too much.

    “Come on. Lets get out of bed.” Darius said against my lips. He smirked. “I’ll make breakfast this morning since you got me used to having them now.”

    “Oh, have I now?” I smirked at myself giggling a bit.

    “Yes. God you have messed me up big time. Though I’m not really complaining, this is just all new to me.”

    “Ohh... I messed you up?” I giggled more as I pushed him onto his back. I straddled him this time. “I have that much power huh?” I looked him in the eyes becoming a bit more serious. “Sometimes I feel like I have gone insane to have moved on with you. You make me feel confident. If anyone else had pulled my tail, I might have scratched them. But when you did it and I felt fine with it. I knew you were just playing around with me. Everything you do makes me feel so much better. Thank you. I don’t think I could ever thank you enough.”

    He smiled at me. “No need to thank me. I do everything of my own free will.” He sat up pushing me to be sitting up too. “Now. How about breakfast? But first...” He looked over my body. “I think you should get ready for the day though I love seeing you in this lingerie.”

    I chuckled as I got off of his lap. “You would since you helped me pick it out.”

    “The best day ever in my life.”

    I stopped at the bathroom door and looked over my shoulder. “Was that because you got to see me from so many angles?”

    “You know it!” He exclaimed as he hoped up from the bed. I laughed as I grabbed my outfit for the day from the closet that is attached to the bathroom and closed the bathroom door behind me.

    I took my time in the shower. That was till the smell of bacon and eggs hit my nose. That essentially made me speed up my cleaning time. I even dressed in a hurry for how hungry I found I was. I was brushing my hair as I exited the bedroom.

    “That smells wonderful.” I complimented as I strolled through the main room.

    “Thanks. I got the delivery service to better stock my fridge with things for breakfast. It was delivered yesterday while we were out.” He glanced back at me from the stove. “If there is anything that you want me to add to any delivery, just tell me and I’ll add it.” He turned around with a skillet in hand and added the freshly cooked eggs to two plates waiting on the bar.

    I took my seat and breathed in the delicious smells of the breakfast Darius made. He even made the bacon how I like it. Semi-soft and not crunchy like people from the south love to have it. “Umm.” I purred as Darius came around with the plates. He already had a glass of orange juice and a cup of tea set out where I have been sitting. A cup of coffee set where he sits.

    We sat and ate as if we had been doing it for years. I know I keep saying it, but it never feels wrong to say. It just feels natural being around Darius. I have totally fallen for him and I really don’t care anymore. Let me be blissfully happy being insane if thats what I am. I love being like this. Everything else means nothing. The man beside me is now everything to me and I don’t care if it is right or wrong. I finally found true happiness and I’m not going to over think it or deny it.
