Page 26 of Mika's Heart

Atka

I’m just finishing loading the dishwasher when I hear Mika come through the front door.

She moves past the kitchen quickly, heading I assume for her room so I poke my head out into the hallway.

“Hey you. I put dinner in the fridge.”

She stops at her door, looking back at me.

“I’m sorry. I went to eat with Arin and Taylor. I should have called.”

Walking further into the hall, I shrug my shoulders.

“No worries.” I answer with a smile that slips once I get a good look at her face. “What’s wrong?”

I can tell that she’s upset about something so I move closer to her. She looks down at her feet but I lift her chin with my hand.

“No tears but you are still upset about something. Do you want to talk about it?” I ask softly, staring into those beautiful eyes of hers.

She sighs, relaxing her face into my hands.

“Why do you make me feel this way?” She asks instead.

“Like what?”

“Like you know me. Like I know you.” My hand slides down to her throat where I can feel her pulse beating rapidly.

My own skin prickles with awareness. Moving slightly closer to her, I lean my forehead to hers.

“As I told you. The Gods of my people sent you to me.”

My lips curve into a grin when I hear her giggle.

“You are so weird.” She whispers.

“There’s nothing weird about this.” I answer back, pulling her as close as possible.

There’s no way she can miss the hardness in my jeans pressing into her.

Pulling my head back slightly, I look deep into her eyes.

I need to know that she wants me. If she doesn’t, I’ll walk away right this minute.

Her tongue slowly comes out of her mouth to moisten her lips.

My cock jumps inside my jeans, making her gasp.

She presses herself closer but I continue to stare into her eyes.

“You have to say it.” I whisper.

“Say what?” Confusion evident on her face.

“That you want me to take you Mika. That you want me to push you into this room, strip you naked and worship this body the way that I’ve wanted to do since I found you in my shower.”

Her mouth opens slightly as she looks back at me.

All of my muscles coiled tightly like springs, waiting for her response.
