Imperfect Desires

201 Closer To You

***WARNING!!! Enter at your own risk!***

Darren never thought in his life that he was this easy to seduce. But he knew only this woman before him, was able to undo him in the way he never thought it was possible. There was a Chen Xiu in his life who taught him what loving someone felt like and then there was this Bai Xiu who taught him what desperately wanting that love closer to you felt like.

Because for Chen Xiu, he always wanted to see her happy but for Xiu before him, he wanted to see her happy with him. He wanted to become the reason for her happiness. The way she was looking at him was pure torture and he wanted to hide her from the world.

"Sweets, don't test my self-control," his breath was tickling her ear and she felt a strange feeling crawling up her nape.

"Federico Garcia Lorca once wrote, 'To burn with desire and keep quiet about it is the greatest punishment we can bring on ourselves.'" She placed her hand over his chest and added, "What's the point of punishing yourself? You can't win anyway." Xiu leaned forward and bit his ear playfully as she whispered, "Do you think you can win this?"

Feeling the touch of her soft lips on his ear made Darren's body to itch with desire and passion. He clenched his fists and took a deep breath before he replied, "I lost the moment I first saw you."

Before Xiu could ask him what he meant by that, he grabbed the back of her head, pulling her towards himself and crashed his mouth hard against hers. Unlike previous times, he wasn't being slow, he was gentle but his lips moved fast against hers and Xiu had a bit of difficulty keeping up with his pace as he let her drown into the kiss while he ravished her.

The fingers of his one hand were running through her damp hair while the other hand traveled down to her lower back at an agonizingly slow pace. His tongue swept against her lower lip and Xiu gladly opened her mouth for him. When his tongue made contact with hers in a fierce battle of domination, Xiu couldn't help the hum that escaped from the back of her throat. It's necessary to make it clear that she wasn't the least bit embarrassed about it.

She wasn't embarrassed that her whole body yearned for him. She wasn't embarrassed that she wanted to feel him and make him completely hers in every single way.

His hand at her back was running up and down slowly. She could feel the burning hot sensation even through the bathrobe she was wearing. Darren slowed down the kiss and slightly pulled back, only giving her enough time to catch her breath as he rested his forehead against hers and said nothing.

His gray eyes peered into hers as if to look for answers. As if asking whether he could continue. Xiu placed her hand on the side of his face and trailed, "Darren..."

Darren leaned into her hand before placing a kiss on her palm and saying, "Regan... I want you to call me Regan."

Xiu reached over and let her soft lips meet his in a light touch, she wanted to tease him as she breathed out against his lips, "Regan..."

Hearing his own name from her for the first time clicked something within him. It felt really strange, how he wanted to consume her then and there. And before she could pull away from him after teasing him, Darren's hand behind her back didn't let her move at all as he pulled her closer to deepen the kiss once again.

His hand moved to the belt of her bathrobe and with a single tug, it came undone. His hand held her hips as she wrapped her legs around his waist tightly. Xiu draped her arms around his neck, over his shoulders.

Xiu couldn't help but moan into his mouth as she felt his hardness brushing against her nether lands. Her cheeks flushed in excitement as she kept their lips locked. He carried her to the room and Xiu only came to her senses when her back touched the softness of her mattress.

She opened her eyes and looked at him. His eyes were taking in her expression and only now he noticed her red lacy undergarments. Seeing how he wasn't moving at all, Xiu felt apprehensive. She didn't care how her body looked but she was worried whether he was holding himself back again.

"You're not planning on running away again, are you?" Xiu asked anxiously.

His lips lifted up in a smile before he pulled off his jacket and threw it carelessly. Who knew where it landed, he didn't care anyway. His lips came close to her ear as he whispered, "The only place I want to be is... Closer to you."

Soon, his lips found themselves on her neck, trailing over her skin temptingly. His kisses dropped along the length of her neck as he sucked and nipped on her skin in a way that it made Xiu arch her back in excitement. His tongue darted out to lick her skin and Xiu had to hold onto the bedsheet to keep herself from squirming.

While his lips trailed towards her collarbones, his hands roamed around her body. Xiu again wrapped her legs around his waist to hold him tightly close to her body. She was afraid to lose the heat that her body hadn't felt in almost forever. He kissed between her breasts and Xiu's hands found their way to his thick hair.

He moved further down kissing his way down to her navel but stopped just right above her panties. His eyes searched for her eyes and when they locked their gaze, Darren found her intense gaze looking back at him. He smiled at her and said in a low voice, "Did I mention, you're beautiful?"

"I don't think so," replied Xiu in a voice that sounded so foreign to herself.

He kissed his way back up to her chest as he said, "Then let me show you how beautiful you are."

Although this game of seduction was started by Xiu, she knew that she was the one who gave in first. Because how could anyone win before him?Please go to
