Chapter 6

That kiss is still on my mind. It is my first after all, it didn't matter where it had come from.

Yesterday night, I couldn't sleep as I visualized the way he gently cupped my cheek his lips feeling mine. The way he kissed made me think if all the people in this world could kiss like that.

The thought was ruined when I tried to think if all the women he had kissed before tasted his sweetness. I am going crazy.

Marcy has been avoiding me and I don't know why. It's like she exchanged her personality with her brother only that her brother is uniquely sadistic. I haven't seen him since morning. Maybe he is feeling guilty. It sounds stupid though. Just after this stupid thought, I saw him making his way to the dining room. He is half naked, dripping wet. It was obvious that he was coming out of the shower. He sits beside me throwing me a glance as he looked around as if searching for someone.

When he didn't see anyone around he turned to me wrapping his arms around my waist. I was surprised by this sudden move. He lifted me up so that I sat on his lap. I tried to break free but to no avail. I became angry and looked into his eyes. They were beautiful emerald eyes that spelt mischief. He had a smile on as he looked at my lips.

"You have finally looked into my eyes again."

"Again?" I asked trying to make his grip loose.

"I can see that you liked the kiss, why are you struggling? I can kiss you again if you want." When he said he would kiss me again, I felt those tingles again. What on earth was he doing to me?

"Stop talking nonsense and let me g..."

I couldn't finish what I was saying because the player had already taken over my poor lips. He kissed them slowly as if he wanted to take his time. He licked my bottom lip as if he was asking for something. He repeated the same action. When he saw that I wasn't doing what he wanted, he let his left hand roam to my chest. I was shocked by his move and made a silly sound in the way opening my mouth through the kiss. He took the chance to slip his tongue inside. He started licking me, venturing to every nook and corner, his tongue rolling with mine for a couple of minutes. It is a first to taste someone's tongue in my mouth.

He roamed everywhere he could reach. I couldn't breathe so I started to lightly hit his chest. He stopped the kiss as he looked in my eyes. His were sparkling, the dull state I had seen before had disappeared. My hand was still on his naked chest. I could feel his heart beating slowly. It hadn't come to mind that I had my hand on a man's chest.

I had no intent to remove it. It felt like that's where it belonged.

It wasn't long as he claimed my lips again. It is as if I am becoming more and more used to these kisses of his. This time round when I felt him licking my upper lip, I opened my mouth to let his delectable tongue in. It was too tasty. When we heard someone coming, we got to our seats sitting a little distance away from each other. Rebecca entered the room and sat in front of us. She looked at her son then at me as if she knew what was happening, she tried to maintain her demeanour but her eyes betrayed her. They were showing too much happiness.

"My baby how you doing these days?"

"I'm doing fine mom, too great," Mason replied smiling.

"How about you dear?" She turned to me.

"I'm okay I guess," I answered indifferently pretending to get busy cutting the meat. Mason grabbed the knife from my hand and took my plate with the meat before he started cutting it for me. He was acting too sweet. What was up his sleeve? I decided to live it alone and tried really hard not to blush when Rebecca glanced my way. After cutting almost all of it, he grabbed my hand under the table and firmly held it. Luckily I was sitting on his left, I could use my right hand to eat. His hands felt warm. I could feel a shiver run down my spine and tingles rushing all over my body.

After dinner I left the two together as I made my way to my room. When I was about to sleep, I started to blush when I remembered the many times he had kissed me. At the back of my mind, I could hear a small voice warning me that he could be for no good. But I wanted to experience more of this feeling, especially with him. Even if he sees me like the other girls he has bed with I felt like I would live with that after all these feelings are hard to let go. It maybe a dream but I wanted to enjoy it after all it's happening and my heart can feel it too.

I slept feeling my heart thumping loudly. Somehow I knew I could at least love this man. He is lost after all. For all the relationships I have witnessed with my own two eyes, I have never saw one which was smooth. I am ready to fight all the challenges in our way to love.

Early in the morning I bathed myself and trotted towards the garden. I wanted to grow different types of flowers. It was yesterday when I asked Rebecca and Mason to start my own garden. And they agreed.

I looked around in the garden and found a good place for my project. I got busy, digging the area. I didn't notice Mason coming and hugging me from behind. I knew it was him, from the tingles he was leaving everywhere he touched. I continued as if I wasn't affected at all. He started kissing my neck as if there is no tomorrow. I let a moan slip out as he continued nipping at it. I turned to look in his eyes. Those I have got used to. They were sparkling in the sun. He stared at me as if I am the only woman he ever wants. But I know it is an illusion. I lowered my gaze looking at the ground feeling so sad. He saw this and kissed me on the forehead as if saying everything was going to be alright. He looked so sincere.

He dragged me to the shade. Letting me sit on his lap. He started caressing my hair. He was aching to kiss my lips but it seemed he wanted me to feel better. I could see a speck of pain as he tried to comfort me. I couldn't help myself as I voluntarily leaned in to kiss him on his right eye. He smiled taking over my lips. This kiss was different from the other playful ones, it was full of emotions and I heard a growl from him, ignoring it as I got lost in the kiss.
