Femme Fatale: The King's Deadly Temptress Chapter 81 - So, Baby, Let's Just Turn Down The Lights ♪

After Damien took his shower, the two of them were getting ready to go to sleep — or at least, that's what Katherine thought.

"So... Where do you want them to be?" he asked as soon as he slipped in the bed and laid next to her. 

He was now wearing a thin white T-s.h.i.+rt and sweatpants — his usual sleepwear. Katherine couldn't care less about what he's wearing as he would always look good in any clothes… or most probably, even without them.

"What do you mean?" She watched as Damien s.h.i.+fted on his side with his hand supporting his head. He was looking at her with an unreadable expression yet his eyes were clearly on fire as though he was ready to swallow her whole. And it wasn't exactly something that she would be against with. She gulped.

Without warning, he flipped to hover over her. She could feel his weight on her and it was surprisingly and utterly s.e.xy to have Damien on top of her. How could she deny that she was without a doubt enchanted by him?

"Have you already forgotten what I told you before I left, Katherine?"

His voice was like melted golden chocolate in her ears. The fringes of his hair fell before her, tickling her forehead and making him look desirable than when he neatly combed them away from his face. His manly jaws and piercing stare, combined with his scent that wafted in her nose sent her into the precipice. Why was this kind of man allowed to walk on earth? It should be illegal!

Damien didn't know what was on her mind yet seeing the way she was undressing him with her eyes, his desire was woken up. Katherine was dangerous but at that moment, Damien swore if he wouldn't be able to control himself, even the word dangerous wasn't going to cut it. They hadn't seen each other for five days and he was aching.

"What?" Katherine realized he asked something but she was far too busy ogling him that his question didn't register.

"Looks like you have really forgotten. Would you like me to remind you then?"

With his fingers, he turned her head to the side and with his other hand, he brushed her hair away, exposing her neck.

Without being able to look at him, Katherine's stare was fixed on the nightstand next to the bed and the next thing she felt was his soft lips brus.h.i.+ng on the side of her neck, she instantly closed her eyes.

"Didn't I tell you…" Another kiss touched the skin just below the first one. "...to remember…" And another…"...the touch…" And another…"...of my lips…" And another… "...on your skin?"

His mouth was now on the base of her throat and the only thing that she could do was curl her toes and grip his s.h.i.+rt with her hands, pulling him towards her.

Jolts of electricity shot through her abdomen when she felt his hot wet tongue draw circles on her skin as his mouth traveled back up towards her ear, nipping… licking… and making open-mouthed kisses until his teeth found the lobe of her ear. 

"Now tell me, Katherine, where do you want me to kiss you next?" His voice was breathy and hot against her skin, she was already blus.h.i.+ng red when Damien grazed his teeth on her ear.

Wasn't he already doing that? Was he going to do more?

"I… I…" Katherine was totally dizzy. She couldn't think straight because of what he was doing to her.

He ran his nose on her hair, smelling her sweet delicate scent that he loved so much and he exhaled, "You smell so good, Katherine…" The way he said her name was so sensual and feeling the touch of his lips on her was driving her crazy.

Lifting his head, he stared down at her, meeting her hazy eyes. Without warning, she pulled him to her and captured his lips with hers, kissing him and locking her arms around his neck, her fingers threading through his hair.

His hands skimmed to her side and found the seam of her s.h.i.+rt. Slowly, his hand slipped under the fabric and he felt the smoothness of her skin beneath his hand. She moaned into his mouth as his hand dangerously inched higher and she flinched as though she was scalded by his burning hand.

Katherine suddenly pushed him and the little action broke his trance that he was immediately off of her in a split second.

"I'm sorry." His back fell on the bed and his hand was over his mouth when he realized what he had done. "I'm sorry… I got carried away."

She laid still next to him, panting and not knowing what just happened. Everything was fine just then until… until she felt Damien's hands on her bare waist that she panicked and pushed him.

Without turning his head, he softly spoke, "I… I'm sorry I crossed the line. I understand that you're not ready… Sh*t. Did I hurt you?" He closed his eyes and breathed deeply, afraid to look at her at that moment. 

Her delicate arm wrapped across his torso and pulled him close, making him turn to her; he was unsure of what he was going to see.

Katherine pursed her lips into a thin line and met his questioning stare. "You didn't do anything. I'm sorry, I panicked."

Damien shook his head as he raised his hand to tuck her hair behind her ear. This woman thought that it was her fault and it was making him feel bad. "You shouldn't be sorry. It's my fault. I don't want to do anything to you against your will. I wouldn't force myself on you… you know that right?"

Nodding, Katherine believed him. She trusted him more than she trusted herself.

"Don't worry, Katherine… Unless you're absolutely ready, I won't do anything to you."

She continued to gaze at him in the eyes and wanted to tell him - it didn't mean that she didn't want him, she was just a little scared of it is all. "Maybe… slowly?" she asked and he understood what she meant right away.

"I understand." He brought her hand up to his lips for a kiss and to clear the atmosphere, his sly smile appeared on his face once again, "I can do slowly… I guess I'll have to start training you then?"

Katherine reached for a pillow and smacked Damien's face with it.

"Aw!"

She turned to face the other side with a scoff, her back facing him. In an instant, Damien pulled her towards him so that they were now spooning. "How were the kisses? Did I miss some parts?"

"Stop asking me questions that I don't know how to answer!" She buried her face in her hands.

"Why not? How hard could it be to answer the question?" The foolish man had a wide grin on his face, enjoying that he got to tease his little minx once again. He had missed her so badly the past few days.

Thinking that she needed to prove a point, she turned to face him again, her face flushed with a hint of red as she spoke fast in one breath, "It's so embarra.s.sing to answer them okay? You wouldn't be able to answer them if I throw the question back to you! Tell me then, Damien, did you like kissing me?"

"Yes."

"What?" Katherine was caught off-guard by how bold he answered her question. How was it so easy for him?

"I said, yes, Katherine. I absolutely loved kissing you," he said without blinking, his eyes bore into her.

She swallowed. With a heavy sigh, she averted her gaze away. "I give up. You are far too shameless."

She felt the rumble of his chest as he laughed at her words. Damien Park was such a bully — but he is her bully.

"Now it's your turn. I can't be the only one who likes it… Or I would start thinking that you don't like it."

Heat crept up on her neck as she buried her face onto his chest. "Gosh, can you stop? Okay, fine! I like them okay!? Will you please let it go now?" Her words were m.u.f.fled as she refused to look up to him so she spoke while she hid her face.

Curling the corners of his mouth up, Damien encircled his arms around her and placed a kiss on her head. "See? You're learning now. We have got to do a regular training session."

He heard her groan on his chest, making him laugh once again. "Okay… I'll stop teasing you now."

Reaching the lamp from the nightstand, he switched it off, dimming the entire room. "It's late. Let's go to sleep, Katherine."

"Damien?"

"Yes, baby?"

Katherine blushed at the way he just called her. He could call her anything and it will sound just as s.e.xy.

Shaking her thoughts aside, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks for coming home safe. I missed you while you were gone."

She felt him stifle a chuckle just before she heard him say, "I think I know how to start your training. I realized that you become so honest when the lights are turned off."

"Oh my G.o.d, Damien! Just stop it, already!"
