All These Years

Chapter 11

I was unaware of how long I had actually been asleep as I awoke to a loud noise from the front door. I blinked rapidly trying to force my eyes to adjust to the darkness that filled the room. I lay there against my pillow still lost in confusion and staring at my door. Suddenly my beautiful white wooden door burst open, swinging wildly on the hinges and landing hard against the wall behind it, causing a squeal to escape my lips. Three men stood just inside my doorway with what looked like guns pointed in three different directions. One straight at me, one to the window at my left and one to the bathroom on my right. The tall man in the middle stepped forward towards my bed, still holding his gun out. One step landed him in a ray of moonlight shining in from the cloudless night sky.

" Shane?" I finally managed to whisper as my eyes landed on his. " what the hell?" I finished with as realization spread his face, causing all three guns from all three men to quickly go back into their suit jackets. I could see the concern all over Shane's face as he stood stiff in the moonlight.

" Thea?" He questioned just as quietly as I had, then he stepped forward closer to my bed putting his weight on it and crawling towards me on top of my fluffy covers.

As he crawled towards me the other two men, who I now knew to be Ham and Finn, walked out into the living room shutting my door behind them. As Shane slowly reached me he caged me with two powerful arms on either side of my pillow, ever so gently putting his weight on my body, only my blanket separated us. He leaned forward placing his forehead against mine, his eyebrows furrowed together before he spoke again.

" you didn't show up for dinner when you said you would. I waited hours before coming, thinking that you were just taking extra long to get ready, or lost track of time or even just needed some space after today." I could feel his pulse as I brought my hands out from under the blanket and brought them up to cup each side of his jaw. " but when you didn't respond to my texts or calls, I lost all control that I had and told the guys to come prepared."

" Shane, did you assume something bad happened to me?" I whispered into the miniscule space where our hushed breaths mingled. He answered me by closing the space between us first kissing my rosy lips then peppering my face with his kisses.

" from the moment you stormed into my office, I've worried about the repercussions having you in my world would bring; Not to me but to you. Then you didn't show up and I couldn't reach you, Thea, I thought the worst."

I wanted nothing more than to touch him, to make his concern vanish. I brought my hands off his face and down to his waist, pulling on his crisp navy and white paisley shirt so I would have access to his skin. I successfully pulled his shirt out of his deep navy blue suit pants and slid my fingers under the material onto his back. I watched as Shane's eyes closed above me as I traced my fingers over the rise and fall in the muscles in his back.

" I'm sorry I made you worry, I fell asleep after my shower, I just had no energy. I meant to wake up but forgot to set my alarm." His eyelids shot up, raising his eyebrows in surprise. Shane cocked his head like a curious puppy before lifting his right arm to pull the blanket off my chest. He groaned as he saw my chest covered only by my fluffy black towel. My hands stilled on his sides as his groan vibrated my body.

" you're laying in bed with nothing but a towel on?" He questioned as one eyebrow shot up and a smirk covered his lips.

I whimpered as he rolled his weight off my body making me feel empty at the loss of pressure against my skin. He slid off the side of the bed and walked over to my vanity by the window. I watched as he slid his suit jacket off and laid it neatly on the back of the vanity chair. Shane pulled the knot loose in his tie and pulled it over his head laying it with his jacket. Next was his beautiful paisley shirt followed by his belt. I couldn't take my eyes off his body standing in the moonlight shedding every article of clothing he wore. I watched intently, biting my lip as he unbuttoned his suit pants and slid them off discarding them with the other articles of his ensemble. Standing there in the stream of moonlight flooding my room, Shane looked angelic. He slowly walked back towards the bed.

" You're biting that lip again love." He growled as he crawled back on top of the covers. The soft material between us was frustrating me. " I cannot handle when you bite your lip, it just does something to me." He told while me, not taking his eyes off my lips.

I slowly released the grip I had on my lip and let it gracefully fall back out of my mouth. Shane had my bottom lip covered by his as soon as I released it. The kiss he placed on me was hard and hungry for more. He quickly lifted his weight off me and yanked the blanket down to my knees with his right hand. I lay there in front of the only person I've ever loved, in nothing but a towel and intense desire. I arched my back silently giving him the Go ahead to discard my towel anywhere as long as it was off my body. Shane understood my hint and gently pulled the towel from around my body, then discarding it across the room. I lay bare waiting for his return to my lips. However Shane had other things in mind as I felt his lips on my inner thigh. I lay my head back on my pillow and completely lost my mind as his lips traveled further up my thighs.
