A Demon's Love (The Demon King, #2) ON HOLD

Chapter 18 - Two More Years

~Two more years later~

"Happy birthday Isabella!" Everyone yelled as I walked into the room, jumping out as all the lights turned on. I laughed as everyone started cheering and singing Happy Birthday to me.

I was turning 21 years today and I felt so happy and excited. All my family and friends were here and I knew this party was organized by my very best friend Nina and my amazing boyfriend Tyler. Those two cared so much about me and they were always doing special things for me. I loved them both very much.

Tyler came up to me and pulled me into a hug, kissing me as everyone cheered us on. He pulled away and he was grinning down at me, his eyes bright and happy. I knew I looked the same, happy. I really did love him. It took me three years to get to this point but I finally got here and I was really happy with him.

I still didn't tell him but I was going to tonight. I was going to finally give myself to him. The past three years he's been so good to me, so patient and I loved him. I really did!

I know a part of me still pined after Dimitri and wished things had worked out between us. I still hurt sometimes but that was something I knew wouldn't ever change. I'd never fully get over him. That's just what it was. I'd never get over him. I might learn to push him away but he had affected my life in such a big way it would take forever to completely let him go. I had gone through so much for him, that wasn't something you could easily let go.

He was my first love but that didn't mean I couldn't find other loves. And I did. I found Tyler and I loved him. Maybe not the way I felt for Dimitri, but I cared for Tyler and that was all love needed to be.

Three years ago, I thought Dimitri and I would be together forever but life is unexpected and you never know what could happen in a few years. Maybe it was for the better that I caught Dimitri before it was too late and I had agreed to marry him. He never cared about me and I know it would have been so much worse if I had given up Earth and given myself completely to him. So sometimes things happened for the better.

After my birthday party, Tyler and I went home. I had moved out and started living with him and that's where we were right now. We were outside his apartment building when he pressed me up against the door and started kissing me. I kissed him back as he fumbled with the keys and eventually opened the door.

We rushed inside, closing the door as he pushed me up against the door. His hands running up all over my body. I wrapped my arms around his waist as he picked me up and carried me to our bedroom, throwing me onto our bed as I giggled. He leaned down, removed my heels before running his hands slowly up my legs to the hem of my dress. His lips followed his hands as I sighed.

He then pulled my dress over my head before pulling my bra and underwear off. He then grabbed my face and pressed his lips against mine while getting over me. While kissing me, he slid his hands down my body to in between my legs as I gasped. He grinned against my lips as I moaned.

"You're really beautiful Isabella." He whispered against my neck as his lips travelled down to my chest. I moaned in response as he kissed me everywhere.

After a bit more foreplay, he positioned himself against me, asking me if I really wanted this. I smiled up at him, grabbing his face in between my hands. "I know I've never told you this before because I was never sure before. But I am sure now. I love you." I said and he suddenly gave me the brightest, happiest smile he's ever given and it made me so happy to see. He leaned down and captured my lips in between his just as he thrust inside me.
