Chapter 109 : A Love Unleashed 1

Karenina

He means it... As she thought with teary eyes, she knew it was true. She could see it written all over his face and in his eyes. All this time, she had thought that he had such little feelings, never seeing a hint of emotion on his face since the first day she met him a few years ago. But she was wrong. Xavier did have feelings, and judging by his expression, he felt a lot of things. So much so, that she could practically hear his heartbreak, and somehow, it only mended her own. The veil that shrouded him had been lifted, and what she saw had removed her resentment for him, taken away her bitterness, and left only the love she felt for him swelling in her heart. As she ran towards him, slamming into his chest, Karen increased her strength, causing his body to be pushed back slightly, but he remained upright and didn't hesitate to wrap his arms around her. The desperation in his hug confirmed his words, chasing away the darkness in her heart.

"I forgive you," she whispered into his chest.

He shuddered at her words and cupped a hand behind her skull.

"Don't say words like that. Not to me. I don't deserve your forgiveness," he repeated in a hoarse voice.

But he wanted it so badly - so desperately. Holding Karen in his arms when he thought she would never exist again... He felt shattered by her, helpless.

"I love you," she repeated quietly.

"Karenina…"

Just then, a bright light flashed between them, and they turned away in surprise. Karen hesitantly raised her hand to her chest and fumbled with the sacred moonstone beneath the folds of her dress. When she opened the stone, it was no longer shrouded in black clouds, but was clear and bright, shining like moonlight among the clouds.

"Gemstone..." She muttered in amazement.

Within seconds, she felt a change within her, a shift, a warmth, and a glow. As if her soul had released a heavy burden she hadn't realized before, the taint on her spiritual energy dissipated, leaving what she feared gone forever.

"Karenina..." He murmured to her meaningfully, sensing the change in her aura.

Staring at him with her heart in her eyes, seeing him reflecting back at her, Karen reached out and wrapped one of her arms around his neck, dragging him towards her and lifting her toes to kiss him hard. He did not hesitate or ask questions about her sudden action. The kiss was savage and wild, with heated tongues and breath, yet she quickly ended it, definitely landing her feet on the floor.

Looking into his eyes, she said, "Take me to your room, Xavier."

Xavier

How many times will she keep making his heart skip a beat? How many times will she keep surprising him? Knowing what she wanted from him, what she asked for, was in the series of expressions that she gave him. And he couldn't deny her, even himself, what they so desperately wanted.

Wordlessly, he took her in his arms and strode out of his study, running through the winding hallways of his own house, ignoring the startled guards and servants, and quickly closed the door to his room, then went straight to his king-sized bed and laid her gently beside him. But then he hesitated.

Placing his hands on her shoulders, Xavier stopped her just as she was about to wrap her arms around him.

"We don't have to..."

"...Just shut up and kiss me."

And that was the end of his attempt to stop what was about to happen between them.

Although his cock had hardened to a full erection, straining to the point of filling his pants, Xavier was in no hurry and went back to kissing her passionately. When he slipped his tongue into her mouth, he was not used to her newly sharpened fangs, and bit down on himself. Neither of them cared when the taste of copper flashed between their kisses, neither stopping nor breaking their passion play and soon he was panting, his body heat rising along with his heartbeat.

His arms caged her against his body, pressing her plump breasts against his muscular chest, their thighs pressed against each other, and there was no way Karen couldn't feel how she was affecting him. His erection poked into her, long and thick, and instead of being shy, she moved forward into him, grinding against him. A moan escapes his throat as she rocks her hips on his cock, rubbing his thick cock against her flat stomach.

Her scent reaches his nostrils. The desire of Karen is so strong and intoxicating, that it makes him dizzy with lust. Their clothes frustrate him, and it's hard not to use his sharp claws and the strength of his nails to rip off the clothes that cling to her body. Instead, Xavier lowered his hands to the knots on her back, pulling a little harder than necessary to release the knots on her back. Luckily she was only wearing two thin layers of clothing! Xavier found that he didn't have much patience left to strip her of the multiple layers of clothing that most of the women from his circle usually wore.

After her straps fell to the ground, Xavier spread the folds of her dress, breaking her kiss so that he could strip her of her outer layer of dress. Before he could move on to the next part, her hands grabbed his waistband, unbuckled it, and let it fall to the floor. He froze under the touch of her fingers, barely breathing. He did not stop it when she tugged his shirt out of his pants, or when she undressed him and did the same with the second shirt, leaving him shirtless under her heated gaze.

"Wow... That's hot," she murmured to herself, gazing at his broad chest.

Although he had been called that before by many other people, this was the first time he really felt happy that his physical appearance attracted the attention of others, especially Karen. He wanted Karen to find him attractive, wanted her to desire him and only him.

A second after she finished whispering the compliment, she leaned towards him, and her lips came into contact with his. His hands grabbed her upper arms, holding her tightly, but didn't stop her when she started exploring him with her lips and licking him with her tongue. When her teeth grazed his ribs, Xavier threw his head back and took a deep breath, his chest heaving from his heavy breathing. This should not feel this good. Never before had such an innocent touch aroused him to this extent. He wasn't sure why this was so different with Karen, other than that he truly loved this woman. Karen was not one of the many women he had been involved with. After all, after all these years, that physical touch meant something.

When she found his left nipple and sucked on it, he let out a curse, gritting his teeth hard. He squeezes the back of her head, holding her there, wanting more of it. His reaction seemed to encourage her, make her bolder, as her fangs grazed his hardened nipples. Xavier shuddered and moved his hands to her shoulders and pushed her back as far as his arms, his head bowed, his hair covering his face as he panted.

"Xavier..." She whispered in a raspy voice.

He lifted his head to stare at her with a lustful gaze and removed the last of her clothes in a frenzied motion. "You wear too many clothes, my lady."

"Karen," she corrected with a flushed face. "I-I want you to say my name."

"Karen," he obeyed willingly, his voice hoarse with pent-up lust, pushing the clothes off her shoulders.

"You really got me hot," he said to her, staring at her naked body with eyes that went from head to toe.

She was not wearing any footwear or socks, so Xavier lifted her into his arms once more before laying her gently on his bed. Without hesitation or embarrassment at her naked state, she instantly welcomed him into her arms. Holy shit, she welcomed him like this, letting him get so close and intimate with her, touching her. More hastily than gently, Xavier took off his shoes, then crawled over to her, leaving his pants on. But then... He shivered at the thought, feeling like he was with his first woman. No, because never before had he ever felt like this, like he would die if he didn't touch her, taste her, and possess her.
