Love’n’Lust

“You don’t get to tell me who to stay away from or who to relate with, you don’t even have a right to be acting the way you are now, we are not in a relationship, are we?” She said her mind to him but realized late, that she shouldn’t have.

He came to where she stood and had her against the wall. Her breathing got faster because of the way he eyes got scarier.

“What do you mean by that?” His words were calm, unlike what she expected.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“….” She said nothing, no words were willing to leave her mouth.

“I should let you know that I don’t like to share what’s mine, Belle, and you? You are mine. Whether we are in a relationship or not, you are mine and no one else’s. I won’t tolerate anyone trying to have with you what I do if that ever happens,” he paused and scoffed, “that person is going to pay, Belle.”

Belle swallowed, trying to ingest his every word.

“If anyone ever does as much as touching you the way I do, that person will pay with his life. Do you understand?” He looked her in the eyes as he asked.

Belle nodded slowly.

“Good.” She heard him.”It’s your choice, I won’t tell you who to stay away from or be around, but if you ever let anyone as close to you as this,” he took both her hands and lifted them above her head, pinning them to the wall, and then bringing his face to hers, so close she could smell the alcohol in his breath.”I won’t spare that person.” He said and went on to kiss her pulsing neck.

Belle heaved a breath of pleasure. He was doing to her what she told herself she would stop him from doing. He was making her lose her senses with just a kiss on the neck.

Ben kissed beneath her lips next, seeing her lips quiver with anticipation to be touched by his.

“Would you rather I lie to you?” He asked her before sucking on her lower lips.”Would you rather I lie about loving you?” He asked and kissed her again.

Belle didn’t answer any of his questions, she couldn’t, he wasn’t even letting her think properly.

From her lips, he went down back to her neck. Holding both her hands now with just his left, he used his right hand to unzip her trouser. When it fell, he slid his fingers into her panty, it had Belle roll her eyes to the back of her head in anticipated pleasure, she knew what his hands could do whenever they went down there.

“Belle,” he called her name like he always did, he was enjoying the face she had on at that moment, he knew he was making her forget where she was with just his hands.

He suddenly stopped finger-fucking her. Belle looked at him with her eyes full of questions but he just let go of her hands which he held to the wall.

Belle was still looking at him astonished, with her mouth agape at how he suddenly left her when she was almost about to cum on his fingers. Her mind almost went crazy; he just put her on a high edge and left her hanging. She saw him return to where he sat when she first walked in. He poured himself a new glass and gulped it all at a go, then he sat relaxed, resting his back on the sofa and looking back at her still shocked face.

After a moment of just quiet breaths between them, it occurred to Belle that he was punishing her for spending time with Nathan. She inhaled a good amount of air and exhaled slowly after. She suddenly had the courage to tell him that she was also not happy. She was going to tell him all she had spent most of her day thinking about.

“It’s good you stopped,” she started and bent to pick her fallen trouser back up. Zipping it, she continued.”You know, I was thinking throughout today…” She paused again to renew her courage to look him in the eye as she spoke.”Maybe I’m letting myself get too addicted to you.” She confessed.

“I can’t have my heart hurt whenever I’m with you and have to remember that I will most likely never know what your love feels like.” Ben didn’t sit up to listen to her go on like she thought, he just sat and looked at her with a cold face; it encouraged her to get to the end of all she planned to say.

“You can’t give me your love, I know that and have come to accept it, so I’ve decided to give myself some time away from you, in that way, maybe my love for you can die off.” She concluded and waited for his reaction but his face was still as cold as before.

When he saw that she was done talking, he sat up and poured himself another drink, took a sip from the glass tumbler, and looked her in the eyes before he spoke.

“That won’t happen.” Belle heard him say with his voice so calm like all she just said to him was useless.”You are not going to give yourself time away from me, I won’t let you.”

“I’m not asking for your permission, I’m just letting you know what I plan on doing.” Belle didn’t know where her courage was building from but she thrived on it.

“You will not.” She heard him again.

“That’s not for you to decide. I already told you, you don’t get to tell me what to do or how I…”

“Where is all this coming from?” His voice reverberated over hers and stopped her from talking.

“From a lot of deep thinking,” Belle answered and got a sharp look from him.

“You are not taking a break from me,” he finished the wine in the glass and kept it loudly on the table in front of him.

“And what if I decide that I don’t want to see you anymore? Maybe I should do that because if my love is not going to be reciprocated then what we are doing is just…”

“I told you what I wanted from you, and you agreed to it.” He cut her words short again.

“No, I didn’t.” Belle folded her hands as she opposed.
