Chapter 485

"You're engaged to my brother?" Christian ran his hands through his hair, then pulled his shirt over his head as he paced the room.

"WAS. I was his fiancée. But not even officially. He never asked me to marry him, he just assumed I would want to and began calling me that. And he's your brother? You're the elected King? Why didn't you tell me?" She looked as though the shock of the morning might break her into pieces right there in front of the still smoldering hearth.

"I thought you knew." He put his head down and took a deep breath.

"No. I didn't. And I am not engaged. I was having at your brother on the phone when we met. I ended things a few weeks ago but he keeps harassing me about it."

Christian closed his eyes and sat down at the kitchen bar, rubbing his temples. This woman had been a wonderful surprise, a golden fairy goddess and like all fantasy creatures, not tangible. He remembered her saying the name "Rex" while on the phone, maybe it was actually "Lex"? Either way, this couldn't continue. He had to speak to Alex and he had to end things right this second.

"Allegra, you know I never would have pursued you last night if I would have known about Alex." He wasn't sure if he said to convince her, or himself, but it needed to be said even if he doubted it.

"I know," She quietly said as she got up and gathered her clothes. He watched her pull on her jeans, trailing her back with his eyes, noticing a tattoo of a lily with writing… he followed the twist of the writing up to her delicate neck, the blonde, messy curls cascading around it. He still found himself appreciating her beauty, in spite of himself and the situation.

"Jesus, you're even more beautiful in the daylight." He couldn't stop the words as they fell so easily from his lips.

She blushed, her form moving in front of the sunlight peeking in from the window, making her look like an angel.

"Thank you," she said. "I should go, I don't know what to even say, I hate that this happened. I wanted so badly to ride this lovely wave of meeting this beautiful stranger that made me feel like I mattered, if even for one night. I will never forget it. Thank you for giving last night to me." She pulled her shirt on and reached for her purse and shoes, looking like the most perfect thing he had ever seen. He wanted to take back her entire relationship with his brother, take away her pain, take away all of it and have her for himself.

Why, why did she have to be his brother's anything? Christian was angry and he couldn't understand why the intense feeling to walk to her came over him like it did. He and Alex had never been close but he knew that this would change the dynamic that did exist between them.

"Christian…" she began as he came close to her, looking down into her eyes.

"How long?" He asked.

"How long what?"

"Were you with him?" He felt the impatience growing.

"I've known him for a couple of years. But we only discussed dating a few months ago. He was my friend."

Christian considered what she just said. "Why would he call you his fiancée then?"

She sighed and shook her head, the distance between them lessening with each sentence shared between them. "Because we talked about getting married one day. How marriages are the best when friendship is involved. But it was just banter, just talk."

Christian took a step and closed the space between them completely, feeling her chest rising and falling against his.

"Did he fuck you?" The words felt foreign to him, like the man he once knew wasn't recognizable in this situation. He was possessed my something, he felt actual rage at the thought of Alex touching her, knowing her body before he did. What was this thing inside of him?

"No. He never fucked me. Alex is.. not sexual, really. He is more about the intellectual intercourse. Alex is a virgin."

That's all it took. He leaned into her and smashed his lips to hers, taking her breath with the force. He loved the feeling of it but he wanted to take much more.

"Take your clothes back off, Allegra," he ordered. His eyes were crazed with desire, knowing that she hadn't been touched by Alex. She was his now, and he was going to make her his in every way.

She unbuttoned her pants, sliding them down while still making eye contact with him. He grabbed the bottom of her shirt and lifted it over her head, then unhooked her bra, letting it fall to the floor, leaving her standing completely naked in front of him.

"Fuck, you are so beautiful," he said as he stepped to her, pulling her face to his and kissing her again.

She said nothing, but her eyes told him she wanted this as much as he did.

"Go back to the blankets, Allegra, and spread your legs for me."

The corners of her mouth turned up into the slightest smile and she turned away from him, giving him a full view of her perfect backside, walking to where they had slept the night before. She laid down and back against the pile of pillows, propping herself up onto her elbows and slowly opening her thighs. Christian walked to her and fell to his knees, kissing her thigh, moving up to her mound and taking her into his mouth.

"Ummmm.." she moaned. Her smoky voice could bring him to climax just by how it sounded when she responded to him.

She was soaked for him and it made him even harder knowing she wanted him as badly as he wanted her.

"Stop wasting time, Christian. I want you inside of me." She pulled him from between her legs and up to face her, kissing him and reaching down to unbuckle his pants.

He let out a guttural moan as she reached for his painfully hard cock and ran her hand along the shaft.

He pulled his pants down and off and settled between her legs as she guided him to her entrance.

"This is going to change things for all of us,"

Christian said

"I sure fucking hope so," she whispered as she looked into his eyes.

"Fuck," he growled as he entered her, pulling her hips into him. He couldn't get deep enough, pounding into her and wanting her body to be as close to him as possible.

"Oh god, Christian," she cried. The sound of his name while he was buried inside of her drew something out of him he had never felt in his life.

"Say it again," he said, pulling out and slamming back into her. "Call out my name." He fucked her like a madman, thrusting while pulling her small frame onto his body. He couldn't get close enough.

"Christian…"

He could feel her begin to tighten around him.

"Cum for me, Allegra. Let your body show me how good I make you feel. Show me that I know how much you are worth."

She let out a deep moan and fell apart against him. He slowed a little, just to feel every movement, every muscle around him throb with pleasure.

"Jesus, you feel so good," he said, as he looked into her eyes, watching them roll to the side as she bit her lip. "And you are so fucking sexy, my god.. I'm going to cum so hard inside of you." And he thrusted harder, faster, picking up the pace to find his own release as her pussy continued to milk his cock from her own climax.

"Fuck…" he slammed into her, erupting and filling her with his orgasm. He needed to be deeper. He needed to fill her completely and he didn't stop until he was satisfied that he had emptied all of himself inside of her.

Coming down from the most intense orgasm of his life, he looked down at the woman beneath him. Her face was flushed bright pink, accenting her freckles and brilliant green eyes, which were set on his.

He felt a pang of guilt and an overwhelming fear come over him. He knew he shouldn't want her like this and that he shouldn't have taken her the way he did. But it was bigger than anything he could just decide to want or not want. He wanted this woman to be his, and his alone. And as he left her body, moving from on top of her to beside her, taking her hand in his, he knew she would never belong to anyone else, ever again.
