Chapter 118 Where Do You Want to Touch?
At ten o'clock in the evening, Nathaniel's car pulled up to their villa in Silvershore Falls.
By this time, Aurelia had finished her shower and was lying in bed, preparing to sleep. She heard the noise outside, and a sense of foreboding crept into her heart. She propped herself up, barefoot, and indeed saw Nathaniel getting out of the car. His shadow stretched long under the streetlight, accentuating his tall figure.
Aurelia never expected him to come chasing her so late at night. She was just an insignificant assistant in the design department, so there should be no need for this.
Ultimately, she had made a rash decision, agreeing over the phone with Luna to return, but now she was reneging on her word. Anxious thoughts raced through her mind as she lay back down in bed. She couldn't come up with a good excuse, so she decided to pretend to be asleep.
Nathaniel went upstairs directly to Aurelia's room. He saw her lying still in the middle of the bed, the covers pulled up tightly to her neck. He thought to himself, "Isn't she worried about overheating in this heat wave?"
He first took a shower, spending a long time in the bathroom before emerging.
Aurelia kept track of time in her mind. She heard him finish his shower, wash his clothes, and use the hairdryer. When he lifted the covers and got into bed, her heart suddenly tightened.
"Why are you naked?" she asked.
Nathaniel grabbed the pillow dominantly and reached out a hand to her. "Are you done pretending to sleep?"
After three years of sharing a bed, he knew all her sleeping habits. She always curled up like a cat when asleep, with the blanket tucked between her legs. She couldn't be lying so straight and neatly asleep unless she had been kidnapped.
Aurelia found herself face to face with his chest and abdomen. Unlike the overly developed muscles of a fitness trainer, his natural muscles were lean and strong, each curve just right. It was a gift from his genes.
She was momentarily distracted. It had been a while since the two of them had been lying in bed like this.
Nathaniel felt her warm breath on his chest, and his chest trembled slightly.
"Feel free to touch," he said.
She liked to touch his abs, and he knew it. Every night, she had to touch him to fall asleep.
Aurelia swallowed, not wanting to appear too weak. In a split second, her thoughts were read, and she found herself being controlled by this man in front of her.
"Why aren't you wearing pajamas?" she asked again.
"I rushed over and didn't have time to pack my things. You, on the other hand, decided to play the runaway game with me," Nathaniel retorted.
Aurelia fell silent, then stubbornly said, "I didn't run away!"
"Not even a word of goodbye, just packing up and leaving. That's considered running away in my book!" Nathaniel retorted.
Aurelia was left speechless. "Go put some clothes on."
Nathaniel stretched out his long legs lazily, adopting a relaxed posture. "It's hot, I don't need to wear clothes. It's most comfortable like this. If you feel guilty about taking advantage of me, why don't you undress, too? That way, we'll be even."
Aurelia felt exasperated.
Nathaniel was so shameless, speaking so casually as if it were the most natural thing. She wondered who was the one trying to take advantage.
Noticing her hesitation, Nathaniel picked up her hand and placed it on his chest, allowing her to feel it. He closed his eyes to rest. These past few days had been exhausting for him, and lying next to her at that moment felt inexplicably relaxing. He could easily fall asleep just by closing his eyes.
But her hand began to wander restlessly, and he couldn't help but chuckle. "You have quite the aim. Where else do you want to touch?"
Aurelia, uncertain if he was fully naked below, wanted to test, and her hand inadvertently touched Nathaniel's erect manhood. She quickly withdrew her hand, her heart pounding nervously.
"I didn't mean to. I just wanted to check if you were wearing pants," Aurelia stammered.
Nathaniel found the topic intriguing. Propping himself up with half his head, he fixed her with a dangerous look. "How about I take them off for you to touch? Or any way you prefer?"
Aurelia pulled her hand out from under the covers, feeling embarrassment and anger. "I don't want to touch you. I just wanted to check!"
Nathaniel let out a light laugh, slightly teasing, "You don't even believe that yourself! If you wanted to know if I was wearing underwear, you could have touched the outside of my thigh instead of going straight for the inside!"
She had taken advantage of him and refused to admit it. So hypocritical!
Aurelia was at a loss for words. "If you insist on thinking that way, then so be it."
Nathaniel rolled over and pinned her beneath him. "Am I wrong?"
Aurelia turned her face away, agreeing with him, "Yes, you're right!"
Nathaniel felt frustrated. She had seen through all the tricks of a playboy, usually said by men to women, but now she was using them on her own man.
"Come back with me tomorrow," he said.
He leaned down and kissed her full lips, feeling frustrated but not angry. He had been unhappy in Imperick, but seeing her at that moment, he couldn't muster a single complaint. All he wanted was to take her back with him.
Nathaniel controlled her head with his hand.
Aurelia muttered, "Can I say no?"
"No," he replied bluntly as soon as she finished speaking.
"Can I have a say in this? We've been married for three years. Are you tired of me?" she asked.
Nathaniel's gaze swept over her undulating curves. In a composed tone, he said, "No, I'm not."
He leaned in for a gentle kiss, knowing that once they were intimate, she would comply.
"Aurelia, the company's new quarterly launch is next week, followed by a celebration banquet. The planned product had an issue, and we need your designed pink diamond bracelet to save the day. As the designer, you must attend."
Aurelia felt a tightness in her chest. "Don't you think it's imitating someone else's style? It's not deserving. The Heilbronn Group's quarterly masterpieces shouldn't resemble those of other designers."
Nathaniel realized she was retaliating against him and was still getting angry over this issue.
While kissing and soothing her, he said, "You designed that piece, and it received acclaim from tens of millions of internet users. That's your ability. I've never doubted your skills."
All the rewards were given, prizes were distributed, and salaries increased. Everything that should have been done had been done.
"You don't mind me imitating now, do you?" she challenged.
Nathaniel had probably eaten some candy before coming, as his words were sweet and soothing.
"Once you've put your touch on that piece, it becomes unique. Beautiful things are meant to be shared at events like this to bring joy to all. Don't you want to see the finished product?"
Aurelia softened under his coaxing. In a moment of distraction, her pajama straps had already been pulled down by him.
He fell silent and began to kiss her like a devoted worshipper, his hot kisses trailing down from his chin to her chest, then to her sensitive areas, his tongue delicately exploring.
Aurelia's mind was racing with desire.
She tried to remain composed, control her emotions, and not give in to him. Her arms felt weak, and his touch was more sensitive than she had imagined.
He was like rosemary, tempting her emotions to detach from her body. Her mind seemed to lose control.
"Nathaniel, we can't..." She tried to hold herself back, but her hands reached up to grab his ears on either side of his head. She thought she was exerting force, but to Nathaniel, it felt more like being scratched by a kitten.
"Be good. Don't move," he said, his voice tinged with restraint. His amplified desire blended into the boundless night.
Once that line was crossed, it unleashed a fierce flame of burning desire.
Aurelia felt like she had been tossed into a boiling pot, and before she knew it, both of them were completely naked.
"Nathaniel, stop!"
