"I'm not impressed." He said and Kalina guessed the laughter in his words. "Still." She returned, trying to match his amusement and completely failing. That man had a knack for annoying her, that was for sure. ¿Why? Kalina didn't know for sure. She felt a little stupid about the discovery, but there was something else. Something attracted her to him, that was undeniable.
Valian had torn her breastplate so cleanly that Kalina didn't even notice when she had lost her short-sleeved shirt.
"You're killing me Kal… My Asahi." He whispered without stopping pressing kisses on her neck. They were against a wall just outside the balcony of the emperor's chambers. They did not have time to reach the bed. "I wish to possess you in an absolute way. I want to be the only one…."
"You're the only one…" She tried to say but Valian silenced her with a demolished kiss.
Kalina whimpered a mixture of pleasure and surrender to him. Then Valian let her take a breath.
"The only one who can catch sight of you, the only one who can talk to you, the only one who can breathe the same air you breathe… These are my dark thoughts, Kal. I'm like a possessive madman. That's it, I have confessed." Valian finished, his lips pleasantly teasing Kal's ear. Then he bit her on the lobe very close to the earring he had put in.
