75. Sweet Confession!

Veronica's POV

He looks like a star when soft moonlight touches his face. He tilted his head up and took a sip of his wine.

Is this man real? Because he really looks like a fallen angel, despite the fact that he is the devil inside.

He knows that I am looking at him and I don't care.

"I never thought I would get married."

He is still looking at the sky while twirling his wine in the glass.

"Never liked the thought of sharing my life with someone. Letting them invade my privacy but I knew that it's bound to happen because I need to give the heir to my Empire... I always thought that there will be some girl who will marry me for my reputation and power and I'll marry her just for an obligation..."

I listened to him.

"The thought was scary because I am not the man who value people. There are only few people about whom I care and that's it."

I took a sip of my wine and let him talk. I know he is not expressive and it's really good to see him speaking his heart. He is not making eye contact and it shows his nervousness. 

"But then I saw you..."

Small smile played on his lips and it's so beautiful, it always moves my heart.

"Running here and there to save people, completely forgetting yourself for the people whom you don't even know... Michelle always teased me saying that I'll get the brat and rich arrogant spoilt girl because 'good' is not my type... Little did he know that woman with sweet smile and calm nature will stole my heart... I love the way you live your life. The peace I had lost in my life, I found that in you... I was in pain when you did my surgery, I was hurt not only physically but emotionally too. Knowing that someone from my own people tried to kill me."

He finally looked at me.

"But then you came, your lips curved in a gentle smile and you asked 'How are you feeling?' while touching my arm may be to feel my temperature but that touch spread in my body like a medicine and all my pain disappeared... You became my serenity."

"I know I fucked up at some parts but I am not going to give up on you... You are my sanity, Vera... I go crazy when you are not around me..."

He placed his empty glass aside and laid back on the bed while looking at the sky.

"I have a fortune but I'll be the poorest man on the earth if I don't have you in my life..."

I placed my empty glass aside and laid beside him, placing my head on his arm.

We both fell silent and looked at the stars for a minute.

I dragged my eyes from the sky to him, he is still looking at the sky.

My hand travelled to his cheek without my consent making him look at me. He looked at me confused but I am sure his eyes must have widened and heart hammered when I placed my lips on his. 

I slowly moved my lips against his, gently caressing him. He closed his eyes and I felt his hand sneaking around my waist pulling me closer.

He didn't dominate the kiss, he let me lead. I tangled my fingers in his hair and devoured him.

I don't know why but I feel like making love to him. It's hard to resist and this man always makes it difficult for me to hate him.

I kissed him until we both were out of our breaths.

He looked at me with a smile.

"Are you drunk?"

I know he thinks that I hate him and won't do it until I am drunk, but I am sober. I know what I am doing.

I smiled and shook my head. His smile disappeared when I reached for the buttons of his shirt.

"No!"

He grabbed my hand.

"Not that!"

He said making me frown.

"Why?"

I asked.

He got up.

"Don't do it if you're gonna wake up in the morning and act like nothing has happened. I don't want it to be just sex. You really mean everything to me and it hurts when you want nothing from me but just sex..."

I got up and placed my head on his back.

"What if I want to make love to you..."

I mumbled and his back stiffened under my face.

"I don't want sex, I want love!"

He turned around and I looked at him. He didn't say anything when I unbuttoned his shirt and slid it down from his huge shoulders.

I gently kissed his cheek, neck and Adam's apple making him gulp. He closed his eyes and let my lips wander on his body.

I strangled his lap and gently pushed him down on the bed. He grabbed my thighs and looked at me curiously.

I grabbed the hem of my dress and pulled it over my head and let it join his shirt.

He took a deep breath when I unclasped my bra.

He quickly responded when leaned down and captured his lips. His grip on my thighs tightened when I started kissing down on his chest and torso.

I kissed his V-line while unbuckling his belt and his breathing quickened. He looked at me surprised.

I smiled and gently pulled out his hard length and started pumping it, I gave it a gentle lick and he arched his back. 

"Fuck, Vera!"

He cursed when I put it in my mouth and licked it.

His head arched when I started bobbing my head on it up and down. He hardened in my mouth.

His head arched back and fingers curled in my hair when I sucked on him well. 

He finished in no time and looked at me with heavy breathing.

"Fuck, what do I do with you!?"

He got up and captured my lips.

His kiss made me realise that I have lost the control of night and now he will lead it.

He gently flipped me beneath him and slid down my panties off my legs.

"You will be the death of me."

He said while kissing my neck.

"I save people, Mr. Volkov..."

I chuckled.

"It will be such a shame if you die because of me."

He laughed too and I squealed when he tickled me.

"You know how to back bite, don't you?"

I was laughing but then gasped when he stretched me with his length.

God! He feels so good.

I looked into his alluring eyes and we both didn't realise that we are lost now.
