Chương 555: Third Arc (Fallen Heart) - 320. Desire
Third Arc (Fallen Heart) - 320. Desire
Rose responded eagerly, her own reservations fading as she gave herself over to the moment. The nervousness that had been coiled within her began to dissolve, replaced by a deep-seated need to be close to him, to connect with him on every level. She could feel the strength of his desire, but more importantly, she could feel the love that underpinned every touch, every kiss.
Without breaking their kiss, Angel effortlessly lifted Rose into his arms, his movements fluid. She instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, holding on to him as he carried her to the bed.
Rose had always seen herself as a strong, independent woman—someone capable of handling anything life threw at her. She had survived political intrigue, imprisonment, and the weight of royal responsibilities. But in Angel's embrace, she felt a vulnerability she had never known before. It wasn't weakness, but rather a surrender to the deep trust she had in him. In his arms, she felt protected, cherished, and, most importantly, loved.
Angel gently laid her down on the bed, their lips still locked in a passionate kiss. Rose's heart pounded in her chest. This was different from anything she had experienced before. She had always been in control, always guarded, but with Angel, she found herself wanting to let go, to give in to the emotions that were swirling inside her.
There was a freedom in surrendering to this moment, to the love that had been growing between them for so long. Rose's hands moved with a deliberate tenderness, helping Angel peel off his clothes. Each movement was slow, unhurried, as if they were savoring the intimacy they were finally allowing themselves to share.
When her hands touched his skin, now bare and exposed, Rose couldn't help but pause. Her breath caught in her throat as her eyes traveled across his chest, taking in the marks that marred his flesh. There, just above his heart, was a large scar, jagged and deep. And as her gaze moved further, she saw more—scars criss crossing his back, smaller ones on his arms.
The sight of his scars pained her in a way she hadn't anticipated. She had known Angel's past, but seeing the physical reminders of those struggles up close made it all the more real. Her fingers traced one of the larger scars, her touch light, as if afraid to hurt him.
"It hurts, doesn't it?" she whispered, her voice barely audible, thick with emotion.
Angel's eyes softened as he looked down at her. He could see the sadness in her eyes, the way she winced slightly as her fingers grazed his scars. It touched him that she cared so deeply, that she was affected by the pain he had endured. But he didn't want her to dwell on the past, on the suffering he had gone through. He wanted this moment to be about them, about the love they were finally allowing themselves to embrace.
"I told you, it's all in the past," he whispered back, his voice gentle but firm. "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Rose met his gaze, searching his eyes for any sign that he was holding something back. But all she saw was sincerity. She nodded, accepting his words, though the ache in her heart lingered. She wished she could take away all of that hurt, but she knew that it was a part of who he was—a part of the man she loved.
Angel moved with a gentle resolve. His hands found the edges of her clothes, and with deliberate care, he began to peel them away. His touch was tender, reverent, as if he were unwrapping something precious. He didn't rush; instead, he took his time, savoring each moment, each new inch of skin revealed.
Rose felt a mixture of vulnerability and anticipation. She had never been this close to anyone before, never allowed herself to be this exposed, both physically and emotionally. But with Angel, it felt right. There was no fear, only a deep sense of trust and connection. She watched his face as he undressed her, noting the way his eyes softened, the way his breath hitched slightly as more of her was revealed.
