Chapter 222
“Would you like to go home now or is there somewhere else you’d like to be?” Knight asked once I was out. I remained silent as tears began to flow down my face again. “Cassie….” He called holding my shoulders gently. “Look at me.” I shook my head not wanting to face him looking like that. He pulled me into his arms and hugged me again, stroking my hair so gently that I felt consoled. “You’re going to be fine, I promise you.” He said and was able to get me to calm down.
“Take me to the beach.” I said and he did still for some seconds. That seemed to be random but that was what I felt I needed at this point. The wind of the beach hitting against my skin, the sand roughing on it. The wavy water underneath my feet. I just wanted to feel it all. The beach gave me a sense of freedom. I wanted to feel free.
“We’ll do that if that’s what you want.” He said and took me by my hand leading me to the car. The drive was an hour and half but we got there while the sun was still in the sky. Night would befall us soon but I didn’t mind, as long as I got to have my experience.
The moment we got there and the wind greeted my skin, my heart leaped excitedly and I shut my eyes to have a better feel of it. Knight held my hand later and walked me further. Today wasn’t so busy with people, just what I needed.
“You look happy.” Knight said and I turned to look at him. I found myself smiling more wildly as I took in his handsome features. The wind dragged his hair behind him showing his full face, a little smile played on his lips as he looked at me also.
“I am… Being here with you makes me happy.” I said and giggled leaving his hand to run off while letting the wind slap against me.
“Don’t run too far!” He yelled and I giggled again stopping to look at him. I gestured for him to hurry up and he just walked casually with his hands stuffed in his pockets and a sexy smile beaming his face as he watched me.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
We walked with that little distance between us while I kept giggling and spinning against the wind.
“Got you!”
I screamed and laughed as Knight suddenly lifted me up from my feet into his hand. I held his neck for balance and we both stared into each other’s eyes as he carried me the bridal style.
“You have the prettiest laugh Cassie.” He said and I found my heart beating faster than it should. I tucked my lip in to hold down a blush but failed woefully at the attempt.
“You’re eyes are alluring.” I said and could feel my pupils dilate as I gazed more keenly into his.
“I believe you.” He said and I blinked. “The way you look at me makes me believe you.”
I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder while he carried me to a spot where we sat and enjoyed nature at display.
Once the sky got dimmer, I knew it was time to leave. We didn’t bring our cell phones from the car but I knew Florentine would be worried since she had no idea that I had left the house. Mike should have told her though. At least knowing Knight was with me would set her heart at ease.
“I need to get you home now Cassie. We could come here some other day but it’s getting dark and your brother could get worried.” He said and I huffed. He just had to mention Angel. He stood up towering above me and stretched his hand for me to grab. I acted as if I wanted to grab it to stand but instead I pulled him down with all my strength.
He almost crashed into me but was quick enough to hold back his weight against me. I took advantage of that and rolled over him instead then I dropped a quick kiss to his lips.
Despite the sound of the wind and water everything seemed silent around us as we stared into each other’s eyes.
“Cassie…. You didn’t just do that.”
“I did….” I said in a sultery voice.
“I should do something about that then.” He said with an intentional smirk on his face. It tickled my heart and made my core throb.
“Catch me if you can.” I said and stood up before he could pin me down. At least that was what it looked like he was about to do.
I ran towards the waters giggling and he stood up as well.
“What are you doing?” He asked looking quite worried as I moved further into the waters.
“I said catch me if you can!” I yelled and fell so that the waters covered me to my breast.
“Cassie come out now that’s too dangerous.” He said but I scoffed, I wasn’t a kid who didn’t know the limits.
“Come get me….” I teased and began packing water, throwing into the air. I saw him hurrying towards me while asking me to get out but I just kept enjoying myself in the water then he got in and moved towards me quickly but I wrapped my arms around his neck and put a finger to his lips to hush him when he tried speaking.
“Just a little more.” I said and my hands found his face. I caressed them while staring at him with all the love I held so dearly.
He touched my hand and surprisingly kissed my palm, he was letting me have my wish. He wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me closer.
We soon got lost staring into each other’s eyes, seconds went by maybe a minute but we didn’t say anything but our body, hearts were speaking to each other.
“Say something….” I said softly unable to stand his intense stare. “Please….” I begged.
Knight left my waist and palmed my cheeks instead, his thumb rubbing my lips. I could see him gulp hard as he stared intensely at them and my mouth watered as well, craving for a taste.
“There’s something I’ve always wanted to tell you Cassie.” He said and my heart had swollen with expectations.
“Tell me.” I whispered and his thumb parted my lips. I swear that I was so fucking wet despite being inside the water. So dripping wet that I believed it would be an easy penetration despite being a virgin if we ever went down that road right now.
My entire body was enveloped with sensations that I didn’t know if it were the cold from the water or it causing me to shiver now. I just knew my core was throbbing so violently now.
My eyes went down on Knight’s lips as he began pulling close to mine, slowly while I waited eagerly.
I closed my eyes when the tip of his nose touched mine and I tightened my hold on his shirt. I enjoyed every single tingle our contact introduced then finally, our lips brushed against each other, and I felt his lips in-between mine, stroking deep while grabbing my upper lips as well.
“Mmmhmm….” I found myself moaning and his groan came soon after driving me insane. His hand trailed up my neck and weaved it’s way into the back of my hair, he pulled me gently towards him and deepened his kiss inside my mouth. A whimper left my throat and my finger quivered as sensations travelled down to the tip of it.
The wind blew chill air over us and carried the waters to hit against our bodies.
I let my other hand grab his neck digging my finger into his skin while he kept tasting every corner of my mouth with a deepened and passionate kiss. His groans filled my ears and my moans did same to his.
I could tell he was enjoying this kiss as much as I was. The warmth of his lips on mine enveloped me causing my body to ignite in flames despite the nature of our sorrounding
“I swear I can’t get enough of you Cassie.” He breathed and I swallowed hard craving for another taste of his lips.
“Kiss me Knight… I don’t want this to end.” I whispered back and soon our lips locked again, and knight intensified his possession of my lips. Stroking his tongue into my mouth while I sucked on it.
We tilted our heads from side to side wanting to have every single inch of each other without reserve.
It got so intense that soon I felt my legs floating in the water as Knight carried me up to his waist. He held me up with one arm over my ass and the other grabbing my hair.
We drilled back into each other’s lips kissing, stroking our tongues into each other, entangling our lips together. We sucked each other up and left no drip while letting our moans echo into each other’s ears.
Once we had burnt out the fire that blazed through our skin but still lingered in our heart, we pulled away slowly and Knight let me down as well immersing me into the water.
We still held each other close enjoying the quiet moment we now shared. Knight caressed my cheek once again and I closed my eyes feeling those tickling sensations spark through me.
“Look at me Cassie.” He said and I did.
“In my whole life, I’ve never met anyone who made me feel the things you make me feel.” He said and I felt hopeful spark lit my eyes.
“Knight….” I breathed blinking as my eyes stung with tears of joy.
“I’m sorry I hurt you in the past, but I was scared that you didn’t know what you wanted. I’m scared even now Cassie….” He said and I could tell with the look in his eyes. I shook my head, if only he knew just how much he had captivated my heart. It beat for him and only him.
“Don’t say that.” I said palming his cheek. “I may have been young but believe me nothing has changed. I tried to get rid of whatever I felt for you but I couldn’t Knight. Your stuck in my heart. You’re a part of me and I know better than to try to get rid of you from my life. You’re the only man I want, the only one I….”
“I’m in love with you Cassie.” Silence befell us for some seconds before I found my voice to speak.
“What….?” I muttered in shock. My heart sank and rose up drumming louder than it should be permitted to. “What…?” My voice came out shaky and my eyes pooled with tears. My heart danced in joy, overwhelming joy.
“I’ve loved you for longer than I wanted to admit Cassie. At first I thought I was just happy having you cling to me, I enjoyed it a lot and tried to convince myself several times that you were just like a sister to me but the truth was that I kept lying to myself. I felt disgusted that I’d think of you in a way I shouldnt.” He said and paused to catch his breath but at this time I was already shedding tears of joy. He had loved me all these while. I was heartbroken for nothing.
“Why didn’t you tell me then.” I asked, I wanted to know why. Why I was allowed to suffer that much thinking he didn’t feel the same way about me.
“I started seeing you differently when you turned seventeen. That was why I pushed you away because it was wrong. You’re were a minor and I hated myself for daring to feel anything for you.”
“… But then I turned eighteen and confessed my feelings to you.”
“It still didn’t seem right. Believe me, I tried to get you out of my mind but I only fell deeper.” A sharp gasp left my mouth. I couldn’t believe it, he had loved me all these while.
“You have no idea how much I’ve loved you Knight. I’ve loved you with my heart and soul. I never felt anything real like it.” I said amidst my tears.
“I’m sorry I made you wait.”
“It felt like dying everyday since you rejected me. I don’t even know how I survived through the pain.”
“Cassie….” He called wiping off my tears “I’m sorry I hurt you so much but right now I want to be worthy of your love. I want to show you just how much you mean to me. Let me show you Cassie that you mean the world to me.”
He said and I let tears spill out my eyes while I shut them. I nodded to him, this was what I prayed for. To have his heart and now I did.
“I love you so much Cassie.”
“I love you too Knight.”
We both confessed and sealed it once more with the most intense and passionate kiss of our lives.
it was the most enchanting thing ever, kissing the man I loved and confessing our feelings in the midst of nature.
