The Devil's Rebirth

CHAPTER 29. Devil's Sweetness

Hope's Point of View

(Traveled back before the party)

I woke up with the tingling kisses on my face and neck,

"Emir, stop," I whimpered, slightly pushing him but still he didn't stop.

I felt his hands start to roam around my body and I abruptly opened my eyes when I felt his other hand getting inside my loose sleeping shorts and cupped my sensitive part down there.

"Emir no," my deep rejection but I suddenly moaned while biting my lower lip to suppress my noise when he starts parting my lips down there and starts caressing his fingers in between my slit.

"I love you," he whispered in my ear while teasingly biting it.

He moved and went down to level lower abdomen and there he showered me with his kisses, twirling his tongue on my navel that sends shock waves throughout my system.

He just told me last night that he will not be forcing me but what he is doing now. Well, it's not like that he is forcing me because my body wants his way, no doubt of that.

He suddenly stops what he is doing and when I open my eyes and look down at him. He is already settled in between my thighs while gripping my waistband with his finger, his eyes are looking at me asking for my permission. I didn't respond to him and he suddenly kissed my throbbing core above the fabric and I am not denying that he never fails on making me want him and now I need him badly. I guess he really doesn't need my approval because he knew it already and slowly pulls it down revealing my glistening sensitive part.

Making love with my husband first thing in the morning feels so refreshing in the mood, he keeps on telling me how much he loves me and I can feel his sincerity especially when he looked at me in the eyes,

'But why does he need to have another woman? Or am I lacking something for him to look for attention from someone else?' I deeply thought while looking at my husband who is now sleeping beside me.

He looks very exhausted because he does all the work while making sure he satisfies me. Well, I really am satisfied, I feel like all of my insecurities suddenly fades with his every kiss and praises.

I carefully got up from bed not wanting to disturb my husband from his dream and went to the bathroom. I decided to take a relaxing bath and put a bath bomb in it, I inhaled the rose aroma before stepping inside and soaking myself.

But just a minute later, I shrieked when suddenly I heard the door slide and my naked husband entered without any warning.

"Emir! What are you doing here? I thought you were still sleeping?" I asked while sinking my body deeper in the bathtub, I never had a shower with him ever so I felt weird having him inside a small room while both naked.

I felt my cheeks heating up while he was towering in front of me with his bare body, I diverted my eyes at the water to avoid seeing him because I suddenly felt uneasy even though he is my husband.

He didn't utter any words as he started to step closer and get inside the bathtub. I moved to the other side before he could touch my skin while the water spilled when he settled himself inside.

His eyes never leave me as he glued them with my every move.

"Why don't you take a bath in your own bathroom instead?" I asked curling up my body but he stretched his legs and got me. He made my body tense.

He locks me up using his strong legs and feet, and when I was about to stand he quickly stops me by caging me with his arms and body around me.

"You're shaking," he whispered looking at my eyes.

"You're making me terrified," I told him but he only chuckled and kissed me on the forehead.

I felt my heart jump with the gesture and I know I'm blushing at the moment. I saw him smirking and I know he noticed me too.

He turned my body facing my back to him and pulled me closer, he embraced my body. He let me lean against his body and it felt more relaxing, I smiled.

"I love you Hope," he whispered to me again, but I refused to respond and just closed my eyes, but I heard him sighed and that made me look up to him.

"Emir? What happened?" I asked.

"Nothing my love," he answered.

"What do you mean nothing? Last night you've been scolding me for drinking coffee for dinner and now you suddenly become so…" I don't know how to say the word.

"What?" He chuckles,

"So… sweet and..." I mumbled with hesitation in my voice.

"And?" He repeated.

'Affectionate,' I suppose to add.

"Nothing more, just that," I said, diverting my eyes.

"Why? Is being sweet doesn't suit me?" He asked, holding my chin up to meet my eyes.

I swallowed seeing him smiling warmly at me, I moved and turned my body above his, now he is under me.

"Have you forgotten?" I asked, kneeling above his large body while my hands are on his chest for support.

"Forgot what?" He asked,

"You said being sweet is childish," I reminded him,

"Well, I think I'm enjoying being one." He said and held my waist pulling my body closer to him.

"Do you have any idea how many times I travel back in time just to have you back in my life?" He asked while our faces are only inches apart. I am almost laying on top of him and I can already feel his hard member poking on my lower abdomen.

"You're talking nonsense how can you even do that?" I asked in an almost whisper voice. Our breathing is already mixing in the air as we speak nearly to each other's mouths. Now I felt like I just ran around the mansion because of the way I gasped.

"Magic," he said and closed the tiny distance we had left as he pulled and kissed me on the lips.

Maybe he's telling the truth because of what's happening to us now since this morning and it is truly magic.

After our steamy bath together Emir went back to his room to get dressed, while I am now looking at my reflection in the mirror trying out the gowns he brought last night for me to wear at the party. I am now wearing the yellow gold satin gown with a criss-cross strap from shoulder to the back and has a front seam slit. This is the only gown that catches my attention but I don't think I look good at it.

While staring at myself the door suddenly open,

"Emir!" I shrieked.

"What?" He asked while chuckling,

"Don't you know how to knock!?" I asked stubbornly.

"Come on darling, it's just me." He said walking closer to me.

"So, is that what you want to wear for the party?" He asked.

"Uh, I don't know yet," I said looking down at myself.

"Why? It looks good on you," he said, roaming his eyes at my whole.

"Don't you think I'm too skinny for this?" I asked, remembering what he said last night, but he suddenly just chuckled at me.

"What?" I asked with furrowed eyebrows at him.

"I never thought you'd be concerned about your body after committing a hunger strike," he mocked me, which made me pouted.

"Come on take it off already and let's have breakfast, I'm badly starving after our morning workout." He whispered and winked at me, but I just rolled my eyes at him.

"You know, if you aren't comfortable with it then we can ask the shopper or Jessica to look for a new one for you, just tell them what you like," he added.

"Emir, I missed Jessica, would you allow me if-"

"No," he shortly stopped me.

"You can't, I mean, I am working on something and you can't be away from me, I hope you understand." He tried to explain.

"Of course, I understand," I said with a bit of irritation in my voice while I start taking off the gown and change into my casual sundress.

"Hope,"

"What!? I already said I understand, what else do you want?" I asked and now I am really annoyed, thinking that he only wants to keep me locked up in this huge lonely mansion.

'What's new anyway?' I thought and walked out of the room, but he stopped me.

"Hey, please don't do this." He said calmly holding my arm.

"Look, I just fired Henry because I found out that he is betraying me and I just want you to be safe," he explained.

"I don't understand what you are talking about, why would he betray you? And I remember last night he just drove you home because you're too drunk," I asked confused.

"I know it's hard to believe but he really did betray me and now I'm trying to find out the reason why and I'll be needing your help to able to do that,"

"Me? What help?"

"Because he's with Nicolo, and Nicolo is using you against me, and so I need you to be safe until the party."

"What? Emir, are you thinking that I'm helping them against you?"

"No, no of course not, you are my wife and I trust you, I know that even if I'm always cruel towards you, I believe that you will never do anything to harm me, right?" He really does sound different today, but he's right, I will never do anything stupid that could hurt him.

"Are you really Emir Villafranco? My husband?" I suddenly asked out of nowhere because of the confusion he provides me.

He laughed at my question and pulled me for a hug.

"If there is another Emir Villafranco, I'll make sure he will never get close to you or even touch the tip of your toes." He whispered, I look up to him and smiled,

'Yes, he really is my Emir,' I thought.
