Cascading Empire

Chapter 14

Eric had placed Saphire nicely on the bed before he sighed in worry and placed his hands to his hips. While watching her breath slowly in and out, he turned around, ready to leave before a cold hand gripped on his wrist.

In surprise of the cold hands gripping his limb, he turned around to see that Saphire had her eyes slightly cracked open, a tear slowly sliding down her cheeks. "Don't leave me.." She whimpered and Eric gulped. She looked extremely vulnerable, her tough exterior broken down while her cheeks were noticeably flushed even through her dark skin. He sat down quietly as Saphire began to wiggle, eventually climbing up to Eric's lap and laying down on it.

'Awe.. she looks kind of cute."

Eric gulped at the thought once again, watching her as she laid down peacefully, resting her hands on his thighs with her thick eyelashes softly laid on her cheeks. A slowly breath of air escaped her lips, before she inhaled again and once again puffed out a soft breath. However, the alcohol smell didn't escape from him.

Slowly, she fluttered her eyes open, slowly widening them as she traveled her hands up his thighs slowly. In confusion and wary, Eric jumped before grabbing her thin wrist, stopping her from traveling up to his privates, "W-What are you doing?"

She went quiet as she slowly stood up, her dark hair following her movement, brushing against the soft mattress quietly. ".. I feel like doing it," She declared proudly as her shadowed eyes were lowered, her lips slightly parted and she slowly straddled Eric on the bed, gripping his shoulders while staring at his neck.

In a panic, Eric grabbed her hands and swallowed, "You might regret this tomorrow morning, Saphire." He warned and Saphire pouted, ".. I feel like doing it," she repeated. She threw his hands away before grabbing the bottom hem of her dress, before pulling it over her head in one fast movement. Her bra was now in hindsight as he turned his head away, embarrassed. "Don't do this, you're drunk right now."

In a fit of anger and annoyance, Saphire pushed down on his shoulders, pressing him onto the soft bed, "Stop that. It's annoying," she stated before leaning in, her hair cascading down on her shoulders and onto his. "Saphire.." he slowly groaned as she nipped on his neck, but continued to stay resolute.

He was panting himself, and kind of turned on, but he knew he was currently the one who was logical in this situation. Saphire didn't reply, but continued to suck on his neck, slowly traveling down and pulling on his shirt, struggling. Grunting in frustration, she pouted once more as she stood up, "Remove your shirt."

Eric closed his eyes before opening them, his eyes slowly changing into a glare with a more dangerous glint. "You asked for this.."

Eric flipped the two over onto the bed, his hands roaming on her chill body while her cold hands rested on his chest. He glanced at her face, while her eyes were lidded and her mouth agape for air, and immediately went to kiss her. His thinner lips pressed against her full, red ones, while his hands slowly traveled down her body, gripping onto her thin waist before gripping onto her thighs hard, knowing it'll probably leave a bruise.

Saphire grinned, watching him kiss her neck down to her chest, and thought, 'This'll be a fun night.'

May woke up on the bed, meeting with the sigh of Callex on the circular chair, reading a book while the sun slowly beamed on the side profile of his face. Glancing over, he saw that she was finally awake and grinned. "You're awake," he stated and May didn't reply, lifting herself on the bed.

"..Who carried me here?"

"Me."

May held her head and let out a sigh, before removing the blanket on her and stepping out, realizing she was in pajamas and not her normal work clothes.

Quiet in a moment of realization, she slowly turned her head to Callex with her eyebrows furrowed. "Did you.. also change..?" "Yeah."

May's eyes widened as a her face slowly turned redder and redder, enveloping the tip of her ears and her cheeks. "Don't worry, I turned my face away," Callex said calmly. He was right in the sunlight, so May couldn't see his faint blush on the tip of his ears as he thought to when he was changing her clothes.

Callex brought May into her room, laying her down on the bed while he hair was sticky with sweat and tears. She was peacefully laying on the side, but he looked down at her clothes, which looked a bit uncomfortable to sleep in. Her dress was folding up and Callex sighed before deciding to take action, turning his head away while a blush developed and slowly lifting the shirt, making sure not to touch any part of her body like it was lava.

She was currently really warm, and he continued to slowly raised it over he head, only slightly peaking to make sure she wasn't getting hurt with his actions or waking up. Finally getting the rest off of her, he folded it inside-out neatly before folding it and placing it on the table she used to work. He remember that she wore earrings, and a ring that might be uncomfortable so he turned his head again, gripping her arm and traveling down her thin wrist, before reaching her rings and taking it off. Blinding aiming upwards, he missed and instead of reaching her soft cheeks, he reached another thing which was just as soft, but it didn't have the properties of a face.

The he slowly touched down with the tip of his fingers and reached fabric and his expression darkened immediately.

He ended up touching her.. her chest.

He yanked his hands away and covered his mouth, blushing as he looked away, turning his entire body to the door and slapping himself. "I.. disrespected you, I'm sorry."
