Page 33 of Kian's Devotio
“Will you dance with me? We didn’t get to finish our last dance.”
She bit her lip and looked down at her hands, “I don’t know.”
Kian grabbed her hand and lifted it to his lips. “Please Kara.”
She searched his eyes for he didn’t know what, but finally nodded.
Then he pulled her from her chair and thankfully Emery’s DJ was on point, because he played a slow song.
Kian put Karalee’s hands on his shoulders and kissed her wrist lightly and then put his hands on her hips and drew her close.
Not too close, because she would be certain to feel something that had gone hard the second her hand touched his, and he didn’t want her scared away.
They danced for a few moments in silence, “Have you had a chance to think about everything I told you? I haven’t really had the chance to tell you the rest.”
Karalee’s eyes widened a fraction and then she shook her head and looked down at the buttons of his shirt.
“I haven’t. It’s been busy at work and then helping with the wedding. I want to. I do. I just am terrified of it all Kian. What if I give you my heart and you break it again? I have dealt with too much heartbreak in my life. I don’t want to get hurt more.”
Kian put his forehead to hers, “I don’t want to hurt you either. It wasn’t my goal and again, I am sorry. I knew that if I was to pay heed to my mother and her wants, that I had to push you away. Otherwise, I would have taken you. Claimed you as mine, and you would have no doubts in your head just exactly who you belonged to then and now.”
Her eyes went comically wide and she let out a gasp and then looked around, then she hissed at him, “You can’t say stuff like that to me.”
He shrugged, “I meant every single word. I did what I had to do. So that you weren’t pressured and that I didn’t hurt my ma. But I hurt you and I didn’t mean to. I was trying my damndest to be respectful of you. And my body hated me for that decision. Trust me. I have had so many thoughts of you and what you look like naked for years. I can’t wait to actually find out. That will fill my spank bank for the rest of my life. That image of your perfect breasts and your pussy?”
She gasped again, and he grinned down at her, “Yeah. I have just had to imagine and hope that my fantasies live up to reality. But I doubt it. You are perfection, so even in my fantasies, they won’t stack up. I have jacked my cock to those thoughts for years. Fucking years Kara.”
Her eyes hadn’t gone back to their normal size and she was practically panting. She didn’t notice that they had slowly moved off the dance floor and to a dark corner of the yard.
There was a large tree and he pulled her behind it.
“What are you doing Kian?”
He smiled down at her, “Giving you a proper kiss. Stop me now if you don’t want it. Okay?”
She swallowed hard and he leaned down ever so gently and kissed her soft lips with his.
