Chapter Twelve: Birthday

"What?" Mayhem exclaims and then tries to pull away but I didn't give him the chance. I tighten my embrace around his broad back while letting out tiny chuckles.

"Happy birthday, crabby man." I say again. After a while, I pull away to look at his attractive eyes. "I wish you've told me. I wish I knew...at least I could have prepared something special for you."

"There's no need for that." He replies, his hand caresses my face. I place my hand over his hand while feeling his warmth. I close my eyes at the reposing sensation his warmth proffers. "I have the most special gift right in front of me." I open my eyes when he said those words and my lips automatically form a smile.

"Then... I could have wrapped myself at the least." I joke which he smiles at.

"I'd rather want to undress you."

Quickly, I push him with my eyes glaring. The jerk only laughs.

"You didn't mean that."

"Sweetheart, I do. I am not a fan of lying. So it's yes, I mean what I said." I pout at him, watching him walk closely to me. "But it doesn't mean we are going to do it."

"We will do it." Mayhem's eyes widen. "Maybe after a thousand years."

"Oh. Okay. I'll keep that in mind." He answers before claiming my mouth to shut me up. Every moment with Mayhem feels like forever. Every kiss from him makes me ask for more and so that night, we just share a thousand kisses.

"Violet." He whispers while his lips are pressed against my neck. The shivers I get from the warmth of his lips and breath against my skin feel good. I don't want him to stop giving me that kind of feeling.

"I love you."

Shocked, I open my eyes after realizing what I just said. Mayhem stops kissing me as well. I end up meeting his eyes that are now questioning me.

"I want you." I hear myself add. "I need you, Mayhem."

"Baby..."

"I mean it. Can we just stay this way forever?"

"Oh Violet." He murmurs before tasting my lips again. With expert hands, he slides them inside my shirt leaving shivers to the areas his hands lingered. "You're driving me crazy." He whispers closely and then claims my lips once again.

Tiptoeing, both of us silently walk in the cabin to find harborage in his room. After closing the door, he pins me against it while he kisses me passionately. I let out soft moans as our lips are locking each other. Both panting, we stop to gaze at each other. But while looking in his eyes, I am just lost for words and all I want in that moment is to feel his lips against mine. I draw my head closer to reach for a kiss but Mayhem stops me by pulling himself away.

"Stop teasing me." I bawl out.

"We are just... driven by our emotions." He explains which is not making any sense. "Violet, we have to sleep. You have to rest."

"Ugh. Fine." I say in a crabby manner. He's so annoying. How could he do that?

"Violet, I just don't think you are ready for it." He tells me after I lie down the bed with my back against him.

"Yeah." I answer lazily.

I don't hear a reply and it makes me more pissed off. However, after a few minutes, I feel his weight on the bed as he joins me there. Hands wrapped around my waist, he pulls me closer to him.

"I love you too." He whispers which instantly shoves away my aggravation. I roll my body to the opposite side so that I could see his gorgeous face.
