--------------------------------------------------------------

I should not have done that. I should not have done that.

I kept repeating the same thing in my head for the duration of my walk back to the inn. It was very late at night and my mind was everywhere except my head.

I had stood hidden in Claire's closet for at least an hour. My limbs were sore, my eyes were tired, hell my soul was tired and traumatised, to be honest.

I ran a hand on my face trying to get the images out of my head but it was impossible. I went straight to Gerard's bedroom not caring to take note of my surroundings. It was just too much...

Gerard was like my piece of serenity in the midst of chaos. An anchor to a far away harbour. The eye of a storm.

'You are late.' he stated sharply. His voice snapped me from daydreaming and I blinked trying to locate him in the bed but the covers were drawn. I searched the dim-lighted room and found him perched on the wall his hands crossed in front of his chest.

His eyes bore into mine alight with their azure flame and my dirty mind immediately travelled down his beautiful body. He wasn't wearing anything but his nightshirt, and what a sight he was!

My mouth watered at the thought of running my hands down those hard planes of his muscles and caress the whiff of dark hair on his chest. To mischievously reach my hand lower in the apex of his legs... Suddenly a pair of white arse-cheeks invaded my mind and my stomach churned.

No, Foxy. Don't go there just yet.

'Ruined your bedtime?' I snapped feeling extremely irritated that my mind couldn't extinguish the abhorrent events that had occurred only an hour ago. I stripped all the way to my shirt and without sparing another glance at him for fear of reigniting the bad memories, I skittled to the bed and buried myself in the covers.

I closed my eyes and took deep calming breaths forcing myself to sleep and forget this day happened. The light behind my eyelids disappeared as he turned off the gas lamp and then I felt the bed dip from his side. His massive figure rested just at my front and the heat the emanated from his body had already started warming the covers.

His breath landed on my face and then I felt his fingers in my hair, tucking them behind my ear. He huffed loudly clearly letting his irritation towards me go.

'Come here.' he ordered and only after a moment I complied, only eager to burrow myself in his arms, placing my head on his chest and breathed in his palatable scent.

'Let us just be done with this day.' he kissed the top of my head. 'Goodnight, Emily.' We both fell asleep content that night. 

-----------------------------------------

 I felt Gerard press a kiss at the side of my neck and then I heard him breathing in my scent. He squeezed me in his arms, almost crushing me in his embrace. My back pressed at his front.

'You reek of liquor and tobacco, woman.'

'Then don't sniff me, hound.' I groaned and tried pushing him away. The key word being tried. The man was like mount Olympus, unmovable! I settled once again in my pillow and tried to ignore the looming presence behind me. Just a little longer...

His hand rose to my chin and turned it sideways and I was forced to open my eyes only to be captivated once again by his beautiful orbs. I sighed gazing at the vest depth of his iris almost reaching his roguish soul.

One corner of his mouth quivered up in a smirk and then he closed the gap capturing my mouth in a fiery kiss. Our lips melted into each other following a tender rhythm at first. I gave in to his desire with no hesitation for there was none to be. I could kiss that mouth of his all day and I am sure I could never get enough of him.

I turned on my back throwing one leg over his hips, drawing his body closer to my own, as sparks started flying all over my body. The desire that man evoked in me was beyond anything I had experienced in my life and it was so easy for him to light me up.

I captured his hair pulling him closer, wanting his taste like air, desperate to go deeper and deeper, as far as I could reach.

He broke the kiss abruptly, his grin almost ripping his face in half.

'Wipe that smug look off your face.' I tried swiping my hand over his face annoyed, which he effortlessly grabbed. He didn't have to gloat of his ability to get me riled so easily. Prying my fingers apart he opened up my palm and placed a kiss right in the middle of it making me gasp at the suddenly tingles that travelled from that spot all the way to my groin.

His gaze that never left my own, now grew hungry as he peered at me through lowered lids.

He pushed my leg off of him and he realised my hand only to cup very high in my inner thigh. He lowered his mouth to mine but denied me my kiss.

'I will rectify that scent of yours, my sweet Emily. Hope you don't mind.'

Mind? No. Let's go back to kissing.

I smirked and tried pulling him in for the kiss. He held stiff and when I looked at him puzzled he smiled wickedly and raked his hand all the way to my...

Oh Hell N...Yess!

I moaned so loudly I think somebody heard. Gerard silenced me with his other hand smiling broadly.

'Shhh' he cooed looking at me seriously.

'We don't want anyone finding out, now do we?

I nodded and dug my nails in his back, biting my lower lip to contain the ecstasy.

He leaned and kissed me slowly all the while his fingers kept petting my sensitive flesh but never plunged in me.

Soon I had had enough of him teasing me and demanded more biting and growling. His response was to chuckle and not long after he increased the pressure on my aching bud until I exploded.

'Fuckk!' I hissed writhing in his arms, digging my nails in his back and closing my eyes in pure bliss.

He laid kisses all over my jawline humming approvingly, letting me return from the heavens.

'I really like the face you make when you come.' he whispered in my ear, licking my earlobe, making me gasp in the process.

And then he started again.
