Chapter 72: Part LXXII

"What?" I breathe out in genuine confusion and fatigue, i think the ritual beginning to take it's toll on me. A sudden dizziness washes over me and I sit back down quickly as Sean rushes over to help me out.

"Are you okay?" He asks worriedly and sits closely beside me.

"Yes," I say, getting myself back together, "I'm fine just felt a little light-headed."

"You should get some rest. Here". He reaches down to unbuckle my shoes but I bend and touch his hand in attempt to stop him.

"You don't have to." I say but the moment my hand touches his, a warm sensation goes through my hand and I freeze in my spot, looking into his eyes that's looking back into mine. His dark eyes look at me with so much love that my heart melts and stomach flutters. He's a really fine man, with thick brows and long lashes that makes his already beautiful eyes even more stunning.

Slowly, my eyes travel from those enchanting eyes along his pointed and contoured nose down to his plump lips, calling out to me. They soon curve up into a smirk and I instantly get back to my senses as my face goes pink, sitting back upright quickly and letting him unbuckle my shoes in peace. Why did I drool over him that obviously like a smitten fucking kitten?!.

He discards the shoe on the floor when he's done and I feel a little relieved, itching to remove the dress as well. I try to unzip my dress but he instantly assists, unzipping it slowly and igniting a fire on the skin his hand touches. He feels so warm, a warmth that I badly need right now but now's not the time. I have to stay focused so I can find out all I need to know.

He soon finishes and I step out of the dress, not feeling embarrassed or anything of the sort as I walk towards the dresser in just my panty and wear the first t-shirt my hand finds. It's big and soft, just what I wanted. My eyes catch my reflection in the mirror and I almost jump in fright but soon realise it's just my new white hair. It was easier getting used to the black.

"You're beautiful Crystal." Sean says behind me, startling me a little as I didn't see him come towards me. My face goes red from the compliment and usually, I'd hide under my hair but it's not as long as it was before. I've really changed, physically, mentally and emotionally. I'm not who I used to be anymore.

"This colour." He says and puts his hand on my hair, stroking it gently and slowly, causing my stomach to ripple like disturbed water, "it suits your beautiful blue eyes." His fingers move away from my hair and runs along my chin, kindling an already sparking fire within me. I shouldn't, we shouldn't.

There's still a lot we have to talk about.

"Talk can wait and you know you want it to wait."

My subconscious calls me out and I sigh at her, accepting defeat as he brings his face closer to my neck, his warm breath fanning against my skin. He looks at me through the mirror and places his lips on my neck, kissing gently and slowly upward till he gets to my soft spot behind my ears. I suck in a sharp breath and he smirks, happy he found it as he starts to plant wet kisses there making my knees weak.

"We should stop." I try to say but only an embarrassing moan comes out as I feel his warm large hand cup my left breast. He immediately turns me around to face him, puts his lips on mine and I immediately kiss him back not holding back even a little.

We're married and I've become really attracted to him so what's the harm in doing this? Absolutely nothing. I need him, I need his warmth.

The kiss becomes deeper and faster as our tongues wrestle for dominance and I savour his sweet taste and soft lips. He carries me up and I wrap my legs around his waist, holding him tightly with our lips still connected as he moves towards the bed, laying me gently and towering over me.

He pulls back and looks into my eyes, his rapid breaths matching mine and he smiles making me chuckle a little.

"Fuck you're beautiful." He says in a deep breathy tone that turns me on even more.

"More than Anastasia was?" I ask and he chuckles, kissing me again for a few seconds.

"More than anyone I've ever laid eyes on."

My heart swells and I kiss him this time, not waiting for him to make the first move which he smiles at into the kiss. After few seconds, his lips leave mine and they get cold instantly as he hurriedly removes my shirt and I assist in removing his. Once we're successfully with bare torsos, his lips find mine again but not for long as he kisses down my chest and takes a nipple in his mouth while his finger nibbles on the other, my core getting wet instantly.

My hands tug at his hair and pushes his face deeper into my breast as he keeps on sucking and nibbling, my moans getting louder by the second.

His hands run down my body and he released my breasts, planting soft wet kisses down my belly, navel and waist. His lips dance around my panty and goes down towards my inner thigh, teasing me with his tongue making me wanna spank him and yell for him to fuck me already but I definitely love the teasing.

His lips and tongue kiss down my thighs and a knot forms in my stomach from the pleasure but it's soon cut short abruptly when he jumps off of me like he just saw a ghost.

Scared, I sit up and look at him confused but my heart breaks the moment I see what his fearful eyes is looking at. My legs. My scars frighten him.
