Chapter 8 Stolen First Kiss
“Come” he pulled her into the shower with ease, even though she tried to resist him.
“W-What are you doing?...LET ME GO YOU MONSTER...!!!” she shouted at him as the water muffled her senses along with her voice.
He just stood there and watched her struggle to put a distance between them while he held her close with both arms. She even tried to claw at his arms but had no avail. Her hair was soaking wet, her lips trembling with cold. The white dress she wore clung to her body, betraying the curves and her pebbled nipples.
Quisito could feel his anger from earlier melting away, just by holding her close, but he wasn’t done with her.
Ignoring her protests, he lifted her up by the hips and she instinctively wrapped her legs around his middle and held on to his shoulders, in order to prevent herself from falling on the floor. Before she could gather her bearings, he cupped the back of her head with his large palm and took her lips in a passionate kiss, breaking the trance provided by the water.
Kate wanted to push him away, or maybe even kill him, but at that moment, she was too shocked to even think of doing anything other than staying still.
Her brain cells ran in random directions screaming the obvious- Don Quisito is kissing me!!!
He nibbled on her lips while she closed her eyes, his tongue exploring her mouth as ripples of pleasure spread through her veins. Her heart beat skyrocketed. She was no longer cold and every inch of her body felt like it was on fire. When his tongue grazed against hers with a groan, she felt liquid heat pool between her legs. She was also terribly aware of his growing erection beneath her butt that ever so lightly brushed against her core.
Her body was reacting positively but her mind was disgusted by his act because if at all anyone comes to know about this, it would be the end of the world for her but Quisito will easily escape.
The whole act was illicit.
Her lungs burned from lack of oxygen as she couldn’t breathe through her nose because of the water and she tried to pull away but an unyielding hand at the back of her head prevented her from doing so. When it became clear to her that she was going to pass out, she dug her nails on his shoulders and that generated a response.
He slowly freed her lips and instantly her head fell on his shoulder, panting for oxygen.
Quisito took that opportunity to nibble on the side of her neck, eliciting a moan from her. His hand held her neck a bit more accessible while he gave her the first hickey.
While breathing heavily in his arms, under the shower, she realized one thing – He had stolen her first kiss and that too when she hadn’t kissed him back. Her eyes welled up with tears but he didn’t notice it because of the stream of water falling on them.
After giving her hickey one last swipe of his tongue, he gently lowered her to the ground. Kate felt like her legs were made of jelly. He gawked at how her chest rose and fell under his scrutiny. Her plump lips were parted, still tingling from the kiss. He was mesmerized by all of it.
After squeezing her into a light hug, he let her go; But as she began advancing towards the door, her footsteps wavered because her head was still spinning with the thought of what had happened mere seconds ago. She still couldn’t believe that the devil dared to kiss her.
Quisito on the other hand watched her leave with a victorious smirk on his face, still savoring her essence that lingered on his lips....
Kate managed to walk back into her room with her phone, her body soaking wet, leaving a trail of water behind. Within moments she dried herself and changed into a new outfit. And by that time, her heart was burning with anger.
How could he do this to me?
Her anger burst into flames when she thought about the guy in her dreams. He had introduced himself as Chris and always assured her that he would come for her. As dumb and senseless as it may sound, Kate wanted Chris to be her first kiss.
Most of her notebook backs have the scribbling ‘CHRIS WEDS KATELYN’. She did all of that because she was sure that in real life, one day, he would come for her. Chris was always patient with her, even made her laugh every now and then. He was one thing that made her feel alive every day, despite the circumstances.
She desperately wanted to get back at Quisito for stealing her first kiss, for marking her like one would brand cattle.
Evening part of the day slid in. People, animals and birds were getting ready for the night but Kate’s eyes were glued to the phone, which she used to google ‘Different ways to take revenge’, but she had a sour luck in finding something that excited her.
Groaning in defeat, she opened YouTube to watch some funny content but then her eyes landed on a news about a forest fire. A bright and dangerous idea illuminated her mind making her lips curl into a smirk because she knew that she was going to score against him, undoubtedly.
In order to execute her plan, Kate waited patiently till dinner time and as usual she asked the maid to bring her food to her room. After wolfing down the food in a hurry, she spied on Quisito to see what he was up to and just like she had expected, he was having dinner downstairs with a few of his men.
Gathering some courage, she slipped inside Quisito’s room and eyed everything suspiciously. She scanned the entire room with intense care so as to find something valuable. He only had a few things scattered here and there but none of them seemed important.
Kate walked closer to the bed with disappointment but stopped suddenly when her foot touched something hard under the bed – It was a briefcase!
After checking back on the door one more time, she got down on her knees and pulled it out. She lifted the heavy box and placed it on the night stand but accidently knocked down a half open water bottle, causing the open laptop next to it get bathed in water.
“Shit. Shit. Shit” she cursed as she rushed to the device and began drying it with the hem of her shirt. She knew how important the data in these were and one mistake might cost many lives – her father’s words.
Suddenly the screensaver came on because her hand drifted over the ENTER key. The image that appeared on the screen froze her whole being.
It was a childhood picture of her, taken beside a bunch of flowers. She was rendered speechless.
