**Azrael**






I gazed into those beautiful green eyes, glossy and framed with a faint trace of red after all those tears, my hand moving to gingerly wipe away her wet cheek.

She'd been hurting for way too long, spending so much time blaming or punishing herself for every single bad thing happening to the ones she loved and cared about.

Such a heavy burden hanging over those frail and delicate shoulders of hers...

Another sigh traveled past her reddened and mildly swollen lips, feeling that state of serenity and belonging taking over her body and mind through our bond, after those words we had previously exchanged.

She lightly smiled, pure happiness and contentment reflecting over her dainty features as she silently gazed at me for another few moments, before she tried to move away from my lap.

"Wait, where are you going? I'm not done with you," I told her as I wrapped my fingers around her thin wrist, careful not to hold her too tight in my attempt to keep her in place, a one-sided smirk tugging at my lips as I noticed that surprised look on her face, along with that faint blush tinting her cheeks.

And before she could even react I pulled her close once again, earning myself a breathless gasp before I covered her lips with my own, robbing her of a few breaths and shivers as I trailed my hand under her tank top, gingerly caressing her soft skin.

At last I had her in my arms again, after months of pain and pointless suffering...And I had no intention of letting her go. Ever again.

The only thing I desired was to love and pleasure her, make her forget, if only for a few sweet moments of all the pain and sorrow...

And so I gently laid her over the carpet, leaning closer to plant kisses over her forehead, cheeks and nose, hearing that twinkling giggle of hers as her eyelids fluttered closed, feeling that excitement flow through her body.

I mildly smiled and robbed her of another tender and long kiss, eliciting a few small moans and whimpers of hers as I then created a trail of hot kisses over her neck, chest and stomach, hearing her heartbeat and breathing pace a little faster, trembling in anticipation as I took my time to pepper kisses and feather-like caresses over her entire body.

She let out a surprised squeal as I efortlessly picked her up from the floor and carried her in my arms towards the bed, earning myself a heated and passionate kiss from her as she wrapped her arms around my neck, feeling her delicate fingers trace through my hair.

She refused to let go as I climbed in bed with her legs and arms still wrapped around me, trailing my hand under her tank top to take it off as I held her in my lap with the other, leaving her half-bare.

I stopped for a moment to just look at her, entranced by those glinting doe eyes, parted lips and rosy cheeks...the delicate lines of her neck, and chest...

"Beautiful..." I murmured, making her blush even harder.

She was the most beautiful being I had ever laid gaze upon.

"Words cannot describe how happy I am that you are alive...And that you are mine..." I whispered to her, tenderly gazing into her forest-colored eyes as I moved my hand to the side of her neck, feeling that shudder in her breath before I gave her another kiss.

Pulling back to look at me, she sexily bit her lip as her hands skimmed under my loose tank top, feeling her heated caress before she bunched it up and took it off, burning lust sparkling within her eyes as she trailed her gaze over my body.

Her breath hitched within her throat as I traced my hand over the side of her waist and gave her a mild squeeze, laying her down on her back over the bed before I left another trail of kisses bites over her skin, getting rid of her shorts and panties as well.

She peered up at me as she laid there completely bare, eyes clouded with heavy desire, her dewy skin shimmering under the faint and warm light provided by a small lamp nearby the bed.

She was absolutely stunning...And she was all mine...

I smiled in delight, carefully leaning over her frail body after I had discarded my last clothing article, feasting on her luscious lips and gingerly caressing the side of her forehead with my thumb as I slowly entered her, as always taking note of every tiny reaction of her body as I did not want to hurt her somehow. She was much smaller than me after all.

I could feel her fingers digging into the scars on my back as she tightly held onto me, letting out a loud and long moan as I slid all the way in, letting out a shudder of pure pleasure of my own.

“Yes...” She breathed as I slowly started to move, in and out, keeping a leisure and sensual rhythm, feeling her whimper and moan beneath my lips with every thrust.
Yet I was not satisfied. I wanted to hold her as close as possible. And so I took ahold of her hips and swiftly picked her up, earning myself a startled squeal as I placed her in my lap again, carefully easing myself into her once again as I held her by the waist.
I watched her beautiful features contort with pleasure as she let out another prolonged mewl, that sole image driving me crazy with pure adoration and love...

Even after all this time, I still couldn’t believe that this mesmerizing and fragile creature before me was destined to be with me. To be a part of myself.

My grace.

My everything...

My essence powerfully pulsed within me, dancing in sync with her soul as they once again connected to the deepest level, allowing me to feel everything she was feeling, hear her every thought...uniting us as one as she held onto me, skin on skin as I dug my fingers into her hips and moved her body up and down against me, sensually sliding in and out of her as she mewled and cried out loud in utter ecstasy, screaming out my name until she let go at the same time as I did, those vibrant green eyes vividly glowing for the briefest moment as she slowly came down from her high.

“***Our souls as one...***” Her nephilim essence whispered from within in the old language used only by the angels, making me stare at her in utter shock before she collapsed into my arms, fallen in a deep and peaceful slumber.
