CHAPTER 113 (Her Dark Royals' Desire)
Skai barely had time to react or run. A second later their lips were intertwined. While she wished to resist, her body responded the only way it knew how — replicating his desires for her.
His kiss heated, deepening, a desperate exploration fueled by the knowledge of frozen time.
Damien's grip on her back tightened, pulling her impossibly closer as if afraid she might disappear.
Skai, initially shocked by the sudden turn of events, found herself melting into his touch and his tongue danced with hers slowly.
Skai never knew that the threat hanging in the air, the playful game of seduction and dare would morph into something more profound, igniting a spark within her.
Damien's hand roamed her back, sending shivers down her spine as his touch grazed the bare skin exposed by her low-cut blouse.
He trailed a finger down her arm, leaving goosebumps in his trail. Skai let out a soft gasp that escaped her lips as she moaned.
Damien's other hand slipped down her back, finding the smooth curve of her hip and squeezing gently. To both of their surprise, they moaned in unison.
"Don't be shy, love," he murmured against her lips, his voice husky with desire. "You know you want to."
Through the haze of desire, she registered a muffled sound – a low groan escaping Damien's lips while hers stopped. Her hand, which had been frozen in mid-air a moment ago, found itself drawn towards the source of the sound.
Heat radiated through his expensive suit, and a tremor ran through Skai's body as her fingers brushed the hard outline beneath the fabric.
Shame flared in her cheeks. Skai attempted to jerk her hand away from his groin, but Damien was a quick learner. A playful smirk danced on his lips as he captured her hand in his larger one, his touch firm yet gentle.
Skai held her breath when their eyes met. His voice, husky with desire, rumbled in her ear. "Don't stop now, love," he murmured. "Feel me."
His touch sent a jolt through her. Defiance warred with a burgeoning need within her.
This wasn't the plan. But as he guided her hand back toward its previous destination, his touch guiding hers as her fingers hesitantly explored the bulge beneath his suit, a spark ignited within her.
Damien moaned again.
The heat radiating from him was undeniable,
Skai's breath hitched. Shame threatened to consume her cheeks as she realized the raw need building within her.
She wanted this — as much as he did, if not more.
Yet, a strange sense of empowerment battled with her initial resistance. Damien's touch was intoxicating, igniting a primal desire she never knew existed.
His kiss deepened, Every groan that escaped her lips fueled his desire, his grip tightening on her waist as he pressed her closer.
Damien continued the kiss, his lips moving with a newfound urgency, his tongue delving deeper, teasing and swirling against hers, exploring the caverns of her mouth with a possessiveness that both startled and thrilled her.
With each stroke of her hand, a gasp escaped her lips. The shock of touching him so intimately was quickly replaced by a surge of desire. His touch was electric, sending shivers of pleasure radiating through her body.
The world around them faded away. All that remained was the feel of Damien's body pressed against hers, the taste of him on her lips, and the heat pooling between her thighs.
By now all of Skai's inhibitions melted away like snowflakes on a hot stove as she found herself surrendering to the moment.
Damien's lips moved down her jaw, trailing hot kisses along her neck, his touch sending shivers down her spine.
He reached the crook of her arm, his hand lingering on the sensitive spot before moving down and finding its way under her blouse as his cool fingers teased against her warm skin.
Taking his actions a notch further, he grazed her sensitive nipple through her bra eliciting a sharp gasp from her lips.
The sound seemed to spur him on, his touch becoming bolder, squeezing her breast.
A wave of dizziness washed over Skai. Her yearning increased, her body wishing for more of his treatment.
She found herself responding in kind, her hands roaming over his chest, exploring the planes of his muscles.
Her touch did more to Damien than he could explain judging from the ragged breaths escaping his lips and the way his grip on her tightened.
The cool air against her bare skin startled her, briefly interrupting the enchantment. A flicker of awareness returned, reminding Skai of the delicate nature of their situation.
"Damien," she gasped, her voice breathless, "We can't… do this here."
Damien paused, his eyes searching hers. A flicker of regret crossed his features, but it was quickly replaced by a steely determination.
"We can do whatever we want, Skai," he murmured. "Time has stopped for everyone else. This moment is ours."
Skai was tempted by the truth. Taking that moment of weakness, Damien scooped her up in his arms, ignoring her weak protests and placed her on top of her desk, clearing the files with his hand.
As he sat her gently onto the cool hard surface, Skai knew there was no turning back. The dam had broken, and the floodgates of desire had opened wide.
His fingers pushed her skirt up her thigh as he lodged himself between her legs. At once his lips found their way back to her neck, kissing her softly.
She tilted her head to the side, inviting him in as her hips arched forward, craving their physical connection.
Damien wasted no time as his fingers snuck underneath her blouse once more but this time they inched further going underneath her bra to brush the soft flesh of her breast poking out.
"Aaaaahhhhh~"
Skai forgot all her inhibitions, arching her back closer to his hands. Taking her moan as a go-ahead, her grazed her exposed nipple slightly as his lips found their way back to hers.
Eagerly she welcomed the kiss, her eyes closing tightly.
Suddenly Damien's pace stopped as something stirred within him. His ears perked up, his eyes turning a dark shade briefly.
'He's here.'
Rather than stopping, his lips stretched into a blown smile. 'Let him come.'
