Love Rewritten: Chasing Her Back のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 101 - チャプター 110

♛ Aurora: The silence between us after I finished eating felt comfortable, and not awkward. I leaned back against Adrian, still sitting on his lap, my head resting on his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around me, fingers gently tracing patterns along my sides. “Better?” he asked quietly. His voice was soft, and low like it was meant for me alone. I nodded, feeling a small smile creep up on my lips. “Yeah. I think so.” “Are you ready to go home?” He asked after a moment of silence. “No.” I answered almost immediately, because I wasn't ready yet. I wanted to stay in his arms a little longer, and I wasn't ready to leave him yet. He nodded slowly, and we stayed like that for a while. His hot breath against my skin somehow started a warm itch on my core. I pressed my lips together, burning my face on the crook of his neck and breathing slowly. Despite how tired I felt, I wasn't feeling sleepy yet. And at that moment I didn't exactly know what I wanted anymore. Except that I

♛ Aurora: Short gasps escaped my lips as my eyes finally fluttered open slowly. I could feel my heart beating rapidly in my chest, still trying to catch up with everything that had just happened. My thighs trembled, and the heat between them was still there. Adrian’s fingers were no longer touching me, but their absence was louder than the way they’d moved before. I blinked, barely able to keep my gaze steady as I looked up at him. He was staring at me like I was something precious. And something easily breakable that he was scared of gripping tightly. He slowly pulled his hand away, carefully after leaving a peck on my belly button that sent a shiver through me. I looked down and froze. He was hard, full-on. Clearly circumcised and completely ready. Then, with a harsh breath, he reached down and adjusted his boxers, tucking himself back in, and cursing under his breath as he did. His jaw clenched and his eyes fluttered shut for a second like he was fighting something insi

♛ Aurora: I couldn’t understand how someone who had hurt me so deeply could also make me feel so safe. Like home wasn't a place; it was this man. I sat up slightly on the bed, pushing a pillow behind me. “You didn’t think it was strange? Keeping everything around like this?” His gaze didn’t shift. “No.” “No?” I raised a brow. “I thought it’d be strange to erase you.” His voice was calm, and he brushed his fingertips on my jaw, leaning closer to me on the bed, and settling his weight on an elbow. I swallowed. “So, you just walked around the house every day pretending I still lived here?” His lips curved slightly, a sad smile tugging at the corner. “Some days, yeah.” I didn’t know what to say to that. I noticed the way his brows curved up into a frown, like he had an unpleasant memory, but then he brushed it off just as it came. I brushed my fingertips under his chin, feeling more alive in the moment; Adrian closed his eyes at the touch. “What about the espresso

♛ Aurora: “Rory,” Adrian's voice was raspy, and he sounded almost breathless as he muttered my name. Swallowing the tight lump in my throat, my fingers brushed against his sturdy chest, and I held his gaze as his breath fanned against my skin. He murmured my name again, almost like he wanted me to respond, but right before I could get a word out, he pressed his lips against mine, cutting back the words that were close to spilling out from my lips. Adrian kissed me like someone who had been starved for years. The kiss wasn’t gentle, nor was it the restrained kind. He bit my lower lips and I gasped. The moment I did, his tongue slid inside my mouth, searching for my tongue. It stole the air from my lungs and replaced it with heat. His fingers traced lines around my navel, and the only sound in the room was our gasps for air. My shirt was somewhere above my ribs, and his fingers skimmed the skin of my waist like he was reacquainting himself with something he thought he had forg

♛ Aurora:A rumble of satisfaction came from his chest, and he rested his forehead against mine.His body was still trembling when he dropped beside me, the last of his shuddering breaths warm against my shoulder. I felt the sweat cooling between our skin, his chest rising and falling rapidly in time with mine.A minute passed, and the only sound in the room was that of our rushed breath. After a while, Adrian broke the silence. “That was…” He paused, like he didn’t know the right words to term what just happened. His abs tightened against my fingers as I brushed them against his chest.He didn’t finish his sentence, and I doubt he knew exactly the right words for it. He sounded like he was feeling everything as much as I was and couldn’t utter a thing.Then he lowered his head, just enough to kiss me. His hand slid under my neck to cradle my head, his other arm curling around my waist to pull me into him, like I might slip away if he didn’t hold me tight enough.I sighed softly agai
