Chapter 18

"What are you exactly doing, Ella?" He was sitting on the small table in the kitchen corner and I was roaming around the kitchen. I came home to meet him in a Migraine state. He had a migraine and he felt so weak. I tried giving him drugs but he rejected it so I had to force him downstairs to get some things for him.

"I am going to put a cold pack on your head first. We haven't had dinner yet so I suggest not to take anything heavy. Chewing food right now can aggravate the pain". I opened the fridge and took out a cold pack which I had placed a while ago. Wrapping a wash cloth around it, I placed it on his forehead.

"Hold it. I will bring coffee and your pain will vanish in no time". He didn't utter a word. He had complained and was now tired.
He couldn't even raise his eyes when I came in. But now, he seems better.

Something was simmering on the stove. I prepared tea not too long ago. I took a spoon from it and tasted it. "Uhmm, perfect".

"What are you cooking?" He asked out of curiosity.

"Hmm.. I found some strawberries in the fridge so I decided to make a strawberry custard".

"You are making custard. For me". He said smiling like a really excited kid. What's special there?

"Yes, who else would I make it for?" I said pouring the concoction into a bowl.
After some time, I felt a hand on my shoulder and no one had to tell me it was him.
"Ella".

"I will put it in the freezer. We can't over freeze it". I said and turned to look at him. He was staring at my face intensely. Holding my face, he kissed my forehead. I do find him extremely attractive and this gesture was extremely sweet. There was something in his eyes I couldn't decipher. Lust? Love?

Closing his eyes, he took deep breaths and shook his face. "What do you want us to have for dinner?" There was gentleness in his voice.

"I….I.. Uh..Uhmm..".

"Just leave everything Ella. I will order something for both of us". He started ordering dinner on the intercom.
"It will arrive in thirty minutes". He informed her. "Now, go freshen up. You must be tired".

"No, I'm not". I said with an over brightened smile. He sighed then pulled me up holding me by my shoulders, he turned me around and pushed me towards the stairs.
"Go freshen up". I took a deep breath and muttered "Okay".

When I came back the table was loaded with different kinds of food. Fried chicken with freshly baked bread, a tempting salad tray having Romain, bacon. Topped with coddled egg.
"You ordered all this just for me, Romeo. Seriously?"

"No, I ordered it for myself Ella! Just wanted you to accompany me". He was a perfect gentleman.
"I'm starving and our food is getting cold. Come on, let's eat".

We had a wonderful dinner on the patio. We were beside a swimming pool where soft light illuminated. It was cool.
"You like it?" He asked. He leaned back sipping water while I laid my head on his chest.

"It's beautiful". I stood up from him and went closer, holding the rails and enjoying the sight.
Standing there, I tried to suppress the burp but could not succeed and as a result I made an unladylike sound.
He started laughing and burped loudly himself.

My shoulders started shaking with mirth "I'm scared". I said. Immediately he stopped laughing and looked at me with concern.

"Scared of what?" He asked in a more serious tone.
"After this burping contest,soon we may start a farting contest". Listening to my gibe, he roared with laughter. He thought I wanted to say something serious. Seeing him laughing heartily, his migraine is much better now. He was clutching his chest and I was holding my tummy.

After some time,we were just sitting there quietly, enjoying each other's quiet company.
"Coffee?" I heard him say that.

"No, beer please".

He frowned with a side smirk "Really! Beer! Show your ID first"

"Excuse me!" I said frowning.

"I thought you didn't drink". He quipped with a shrug.

"Then, you know nothing about me, Alpha Romeo''. I winked at him.

I sat down and settled myself on the patio recliner chair by the poolside. Romeo emerged with a bucket carrying beer bottles in it. He handed over a bottle and sat on the other recliner beside me.

We both were staring at the pool busy in our thoughts. I was feeling so comfortable in his company, more like I knew him for centuries. Like we were old buddies who didn't need words to communicate with each other or express our feelings. I looked at him. He was wearing knee-length shorts with a white shirt unbuttoned at the moments showing his lean, muscular chest.

No! Stop Graciella! Don't go there! If he caught you staring at him. You will end up being teased and fucked by him. I chuckled loudly at my thoughts. I really missed my wolf.

He looked at me taking a big chug not understanding at all. "What?" He asked.

"I missed my wolf". He smiled at me and pulled me closer while I leaned on him. He offered me another bottle which I declined. "Not now!" I said, closing my eyes, enjoying the quietness of the night.

"How was the company?"

"It was great. I enjoyed myself".

"Aren't you too stressed out?"

"No. I'm okay. Larry is a good guy".

"Yes. Very competent. You will get to like him more".

"Pass me that second bottle of beer, will you?". I sighed. Taking a sip from my bottle, I was lost in my own thoughts, fighting some inner battles. I smiled gently through my pains and he was sitting down there waiting patiently for me.
He got up from the chair quietly and went inside to fetch a box of Kleenex. When he returned, instead of sitting on his chair,he sat with me. I sat with my back straight because I was trying my best to control my emotions and to block away from the past bad memories.

Scooping me in his arms, he made me lie on him. His one arm was holding me while the other was rubbing my back gently. My chin was resting on his chest. I really hate showing my weak side to anyone. He sensed it. Because his strong arms took me in a tight embrace and his firm but gentle voice told her "It's okay sweetheart. You're safe here, with me. I will protect you, okay. You are mine now and I'm yours".

I placed my chin on his chest and looked at him. The concern in his eyes has transformed into admiration. She kept her fingers crossed hoping to God that she won't regret this. Hoping she would always cherish the moment she met him. Hoping and praying that nothing should come their way.

He clutched me tightly to himself, making me smile. I felt safe in his arms and I was wickedly happy when I imagined Zarina's face and disappointment when she saw me this happy. I didn't know when sleep engulfed me but I knew that I was happy. Even in my dreams, I was the happiest lady.

When I opened my eyes, I felt relaxed. A smile spread on my lips. I was wide awake but still did not want to get up. I stretched and lifted my head a little, meeting two intense eyes looking at me.

"Good morning” I blushed as I stared into his super cute face.

Holy Molly! How on earth can a guy be this pretty, huh?

Look at the hair, the eyes, the lips, his words and actions…
Geez! I just felt like grabbing him and kissing him.

I still couldn’t believe he was mine.

“You slept well, huh?” He asked, giving that lopsided grin and I nodded bashfully.
I tried to get up but the two eyes did not let me. He was shirtless, I realized.

I felt pressed immediately and I rolled off from him. Avoiding his gaze, I stood up. He was staring at me, I could feel his gaze on my back. Like why the hell am I pressed early in the morning? Is this a new way of having a hangover? I couldn't decide what I was looking for but he made it easy for me by pointing in one direction in an amused voice "The restroom!"

I didn't know what he found so hilarious while I rushed into the bathroom to take refuge in it.
After brushing my teeth and taking a shower, I got out of the bathroom. He had left the room. I sighed in relief and picked out clothes to wear. Yea, I'm going to work today.

After getting dressed, I picked up my handbag and went to the living room. I saw him standing beside the window with a glass of water in his hand, pressing his phone. The moment he saw me, he dropped his phone and smiled lightly at me "What do you want for breakfast, ma'am". He bowed a little. I blushed lightly.

He came closer and breathed on my neck and bit on my earlobe.
"You look so pretty today, sugar plum".

I wrapped my hands around him and kissed him. He massaged his hands on my waist as he intensified the kiss and finally, he unlocked it.

“Can I……go for just 60 seconds?” He asked softly, making me confused.
Or maybe, I actually wanted to be confused cause I didn’t want to believe that was what he was referring to or I wanted to believe.

"F….For what?” I stuttered, my eyes dripping in anxiety.
I’ll be quick and gentle” he whispered and dipped his hands into my skirt, ripping my pants off.

Whaaaat???

He rolled my skirt up and got on top of me after unhooking his belt.

“Romeo….” I mumbled his name when I felt him bring out his ‘thing’.

Oh God! Isn’t it a little too early for this?

I hope he doesn't kill me with this one day.

He teased my entrance with his already hard and wet dick and I groaned.

“Just count to 60, Ella and I’ll be done”he said into my ears and inserted the dck afterwards.


“Ahhhhh!” I shrieked and held on tightly to his shirt.

Oh my gawd!

He caged me with his hands and forced his full size into me. He grunted as he did so and luckily, it didn’t take much time before he got his size adjusted.

“Oh…
"Romeo…..” I moaned as he started thrusting into me.

Romeo's Pov
I groaned lightly as her warm tight area sheathed me.

There was no damn space to occupy my size and it just gave me the perfect warmth I needed. That tight moist embrace coming from her hole.

Oh! Graciella!…I know I shouldn’t be doing this…

I know I should’ve given you enough time to rest. But I simply can’t. I just couldn’t control it.

I felt like tearing up

She kept groaning and moaning my name and her cries were only like music to my ears.

Oh Graciella. You have no idea what you’ve done to me.

By accepting to be mine, you just became a part of me. You just became my responsibility.
Although, I messed up the first time, but with you, I’ll try my best to give you all I deserve.
I’ll protect you with my life and anyone who wants to touch you would have to kill me.

You’ve just become my property.

I finally reached climax and pulled out of her, leaving her to catch her breath.

"I will drive you to work". I said while she was still catching her breath. She hummed and stood up from the couch.

"You informed the driver already". She said while wearing her dress.

"Yea. And I already made breakfast".

"Really!" She said while her face lit up. "I will freshen up then". She walked up the stairs towards the bedroom while I served the food in the dining room. I'm a good cook. Living alone for centuries made me extraordinarily good.

She came back and pulled out a chair sitting on it. I dished out her food.
"You're such a good cook". She said and moaned while eating it. She doesn't know what she's doing to me. I felt turned on. If I can have sex with her the whole day, I will. I really can't get enough of her like she does. When I get redeemed, I just hope she won't leave me. I want her to stay with me. I want her to be by my side, always. I can't stand being without her.
