Emeliano's pov
I was pissed.
If there was any other word to describe pissed, then I'd take that. Rafael stuck to his words, he called Rebecca. He was determined to destroy our relationship. But I won't let that happen. I can't let that happen.
Rebecca and I have been through enough already, we've learned to fight off our differences and we've coped to live with our flaws. It wasn't the perfect relationship, but it was promising. It was leading to something perfect. And now... Rafael.
It was like the universe didn't want us to have anything to do with each other...There was always one thing threatening to tear us apart. Even from the start.
The secrets.
Secrets that were too strong to share with the other. The secrets I keep would definitely be the thing to tear us apart. There's no fucking doubt about that.
I needed to speak to that bastard.
I will not let him destroy Rebecca and I. We have come too far already.
I picked up my phone searched for his number quickly, and dialed it. He picked up on the third ring.
"Boy, to what do I owe the displeasure of your call?"
"Why did you call her? If you say you want to protect her, then why do you want to destroy the only thing that matters to her." I shot at him immediately, going straight to the point.
Rafael gave a snort over the phone. "You still haven't changed. You're letting unnecessary things bother you... Tell me boy, when will you grow up?"
"I'm trying to be serious you fucking bastard. I don't want you to call her anymore. Leave Rebecca the fuck alone."
"And what would I gain by doing that... Where's the fun in letting you both have the happily ever after life?"
"She's your daughter... Don't you want what's best for her?"
"I do, that's why I'm trying to rid her of you. You are dragging her down to your lonely as hell world... You're manipulating her to think that the both of you could be like Rumple and Belle. That's not how it works boy... You know that."
I paused.
This isn't working, I have to take another route into this matter.
"What do you want?"
"I beg your pardon?"
I let out a harsh breath of frustration. "What do you want? Is it money? If I give you money would you... Would you keep your fucking mouth shut and leave us the hell alone?"
Rafael chuckled. "Oh, my boy... I knew you gathered some traits from me."
"Answer the damn question Rafael."
"I'll let you know, Boy." With that, the line went blank dead.
Taking the phone from my ear, I squeezed the life out of it, but it wasn't breaking... In frustration, I threw the phone straight to the wall close to the door of my study.
And just on cue, my study door pushed open, revealing Rebecca.
Her eyes moved from me to my shattered phone. She looked puzzled for a bit, before closing the door gently... Locking it with the key.
"That's like- the second phone this month?" She asked, coming over to me, her eyes never leaving mine for a second. "What's wrong." She reached to touch me but I pulled back.
"I'm sorry Rebecca. But I gotta tell you something. And this something is bound to ruin this- this."
"What do you want to tell me?" She asked. Shutting my laptop and pushing it to the far end of the table. She got comfortable on my table, staring at me like I was about to disappear any minute.
"I- the thing is- Before I-" I couldn't find the right words, my brain wasn't able to cook up the right words.
"Come here." She simply said.
"I don't-"
"Come here." She said again.
Sighing, I walked closer to her, standing right in front of her... Our heights were almost matching because she was sitting on my table.
Her hand ran down my left arm, as she continued to stare deep into my eyes. Breaking my every reserve with her far too innocent eyes.
Without warning, her lips landed on mine and her fingers went straight to my hair. She kissed away my worries and thoughts... She kissed away the words that were too difficult to even come to the surface. But why was she kissing me like it would actually be the last time she'd ever kiss me? Does she know? Was she hurt? Did Rafael by any chance tell her anything?
I pulled away but she was reluctant to let go.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing." Her voice was barely above a whisper.
"I can tell something is wrong Rebecca. What is it?" The worries I felt before, decided to showcase itself again.
She kissed me again, this time, coming so close to me... I felt the heat of both our bodies, it made my heart jump widely in my chest, it left a strain in my lower body.
"Rebecca-"
"Shut up." She said, dropping her lips from mine, as she proceeded to trace hot and lingering kisses down my jaw to my neck.
"Rebecca, what are you doing- stop-" I pulled her away from me. "I really need to tell you something."
"I don't wanna hear it."
My brows furrowed in confusion. "What?"
"I don't wanna hear it. You said it was going to destroy our relationship. I don't want our relationship to be destroyed, so... Please don't tell me. It's In the past. What's in the past, stays in the past. Okay? Don't let it destroy the future. Our future."
I blinked.
"Now, don't," Her fingers moved to unbutton my shirt, one by one. "Interrupt me."
Taking my shirt off, she placed a kiss on my lips again. When I didn't respond, she took my hand and looked straight into my eyes. "Put your hands to me."
This was so unlike Rebecca, my mind couldn't comprehend it at all.
I still didn't respond, so she did it herself, she moved my hand to her breast. My whole body trembled with the feel of her breast on my palm.
No one told me twice before I finally responded, I kissed her deeply, giving a moan of satisfaction when she gave me full dominance over her ever so tempting lips.
My fingers roamed down her back to the hem of her shirt. Lifting it above her head, my hand tossed the shirt away, not to my surprise, she wasn't wearing a bra, I knew before hand when she placed my hand over her breast. I continued to kiss her lips, then to her attractive neck, my hand moved to caress her luscious breast. The moan she gave, stirred my groin.
I had no idea why she just decided to do this here at my study, but I damn well don't mind it at all... If anything, I needed this, I needed her. All of her.
My fingers found their way in between her thighs, which was already hot and awaiting. I pressed on gently, memorizing the way her moan changed, memorizing every single after effects of my touch, her fingers, raked my hair like madness as I continued to stroke her treasure area. She arched her back, giving me more entrance.
My lips found its way to her breast, teasing her until she came undone before me.
I would never stop loving this woman. She was my world, my dream... My heart. She was my every thing. My sun, moon, light... My every damn thing- she was special to me, she was extraordinary. She was perfect. Too perfect.
I wasted no time, easing my way into her. I knew this wasn't an appropriate place to make love. On a table, something I never thought Rebecca would accept... But then it's Rebecca, she doesn't seize a moment to prove me wrong.
Ever since Rebecca paved her way Into my heart, my life changed. My heart opened into the real meaning of love. I knew what it was like to finally find the one you wanted to spend your life with.
I vowed to never get tied up by a woman, ever since Camilla. I vowed to never think of going to a ring store or proposing to any woman. But now, all I could think of was forever. I want to make Rebecca mine forever, I want to break that stupid vow. This was it. This was her. I want to take this to the next level... Build a family, have kids, grow old together... I want this life with Rebecca.
And I want it now, not next month or the month after.
I love her and I knew that no matter what the secret was, no matter how big the trust issue was... Nothing would ever separate the both of us.
I won't let it happen. And I knew Rebecca enough, to know that... No matter what? She'd stick with me.
Always and forever.
