The Secret Between Us
Chapter 5

The taste his lips left on mine is sweet, intoxicating and even addictive. I’ve never met a man like this before, since yesterday that his gaze won’t be erased from my mind, that his words are repeated over and over again inside me and that I carry the image of him engraved in my head. He’s nothing like anyone I’ve met so far and that’s what’s driving me the most crazy as we arrive in front of a luxurious building located in the heart of Las Vegas.

-Do you live here? – I ask as he pulls into the building’s garage.

He shakes his head, “It’s an apartment for when I want to be away from my home. – He explains.

-As a bachelor…” I correct and he laughs.

-For when I don’t want to be with people. – he insists.

-And what am I? – I question with a chuckle.

He finishes parking the car, unbuckles his seatbelt and leans towards me -I’ve never brought a woman here, you’re the first one. – He says to me millimeters away from my lips.

-And you are also a virgin… aha…” I add sarcastically and he laughs.

-If you’re interested in that fact, I stopped being one when I was 17… but I tell you, s*x and love don’t always go hand in hand…” she whispers to me with those green eyes staring at me… I feel my heart is about to burst out of my chest and not to mention the ridiculously hot temperature that burns my whole body.

-And what do you mean by that? – I ask and intentionally bite my lower l*p.

-That, if you don’t want me to touch you tonight, I won’t… that I want to conquer you because it’s not just desire that I feel for you. – He answers and I lose my sanity when his fingers tangle in my hair and play with it.

-I should tell you no, I should tell you that I’m a decent woman who doesn’t spend the night with strangers, I should play hard to get with you… -But…” he adds.

-But…” she adds, stealing a smile from me.

-But I’m sick of playing at being who everyone expects me to be and if I’m honest, I’ve loved you ever since I saw you last night in that club dressed in that masculine and sensual way. – I confess and the way his hand is now placed on the back of my neck, seduces me in infinite ways.

-With me be whoever you want to be…” he encourages me and it is me this time who k****s him urgently.

I can’t explain what happens to me with him… it’s a madness I’ve never experienced before and I don’t know if it’s because I’ve never met a man as confident, as handsome and as sexy as him or it’s because my father practically sold me out to his new partner without me knowing it. The only certainty I have is that I want to be free and that I love him. -Let’s go upstairs…” I ask him on his lips.

-Let’s go…-he agrees and quickly gets out of the car and then comes running to my side to open my door making me laugh.

-I could do it. – I say amused and he takes my hand.

-I’m a gentleman, even if you don’t believe it. – He defends himself and by his hand I walk through the parking lot to the elevator.

We go up, he presses the button that says “PH” and puts a key while I look at him surprised -pent-house? – I ask.

-The best view of all… although tonight it will be you. – He tells me sensually and approaches me, cornering me between his body and the wall. -I don’t know what you did to me, but I’m crazy about you… tell me yes. – he confesses leaning his forehead against mine.

-To be your girlfriend? – I question and he nods.

-To be your girlfriend? – I question and he nods.

-Yes…” she answers and the elevator door opens letting me see an impressive apartment incredibly decorated in a modern way.

-We’re here…” I say when he doesn’t move and we laugh. He separates from me so we can get off the elevator and once we enter the pent-house I stand still at the amount of pictures hanging there -Who are you? – I ask.

-Izan. –

-What do you do, Izan? – I ask and he looks at me in a strange way.

-Do you really want to know all that? – he asks me amused and I deny.

-Not really… -I admit.

-Why do you ask then? – he asks.

“That’s a good question…” -Because I’ve never done anything like that. – I confess.

-Accept an invitation from a complete stranger? – he questions and I deny.

His gaze is fixed on mine, the distance is too short and this desire for him burns me… I take my fingers to the straps of my dress and slowly I slowly pull them down and then open the zipper on the side of my garment and let it slide down my body until I’m in a black lace lingerie set in front of his eyes -wanting a man I met less than 24 hours ago to make love to me like a madman. – I finally answer as I pull my feet out of the garment that fell to the floor.

His gaze runs over me from head to toe making me feel like his fingers have caressed me completely without even getting close to me, finally he takes two steps forward shortening the distance and arranges my hair to the side – tell me yes please… I swear the more I look at you, the more sure I am that you are the one I dreamed I would be the woman of my life.

would be the woman of my life. – he says and I nod.

-Yes…” I finally answer and his triumphant smile steals my breath.

-I will treat you like a queen, I promise. – He assures me and suddenly, his arm is around my waist, pulling me to his body in a way that melts me. His mouth takes mine burning me in such a way that I feel I lose all will and so in the middle of k****s and caresses, he lifts me in the air as if I weighed absolutely nothing and makes me wrap my legs around his waist. My hands hold his face wanting to deepen our k**s much more and it is so urgent that I can’t look at anything around me, I only know that he walks until we enter a room and he places me carefully on the bed.

I watch him standing in front of me and enjoy the spectacle of watching him take off his clothes. He starts with his jacket, continues with his shirt and while their feet help each other take off their shoes, he tries to unbuckle his belt, but I kneel on the bed and approach him and then bring my hand over his -let me do it. – I ask him and he immediately removes his hands.

I slowly unbuckle the belt and I can notice how he closes his eyes when my hands brush his manhood over the fabric, he’s sexy and I love everything I discover about him… -you’re going to kill me…- he complains smiling.

-Not yet… wait a moment more and you’ll see…” I warn him and like a naughty girl, I finish unbuckling his belt and his pants and then pull them down under his now attentive gaze.

-You’ll drive me crazy…” he murmurs and places his fingers under my chin to lift my face and k**s me again.

It is in the middle of our k**s that he finishes stripping off his clothes and forces me back on the bed so that I then fall on my back and his body on top of mine. This level of madness is absolutely new, it’s so unique that I could get addicted without any inconvenience and it all gets worse when his fingers start to work magic on me. They touch me in a sensual, irreverent, and naughty way… they make me see the stars even inside these four walls and I just want more.

-What are you doing to me? – I ask him between k****s as he is now taking off the few clothes that were left on me.

-Loving you… I’m loving you as I always imagined I would with the woman of my life and you’re finally here…” he says between k****s.

-How can you be so sure that I am the woman of your life? – I ask incoherently when my breasts are already attacked by his lips.

-I just know… just like I know that behind the clouds there is always the sun and that no matter how strong the storm is, it will always be there. – he explains to me between k****s.

This may be really crazy, but what I’m feeling is unprecedented… I could miss an eternity with him. He k****s me full from head to toe making me feel so desired and so much desire, I feel like the air is not getting to my lungs. My fingers desperately undo his boxer shorts and I feel his e******n rubbing against me and want to feel him in me once and for all.

-Do you have it? – I ask as best I can and he nods. I hate for him to pull away from me, to stop kissing me, but he reaches for his pants on the floor, pulls out a condom and quickly kneels in front of me to put it on. -You’re quite a sight, Izan,” I say, leaving the name in the air.

-Izan De Lucca…” he finishes saying and once he finishes putting on the condom he leans down again towards me. -Izan, the man you conquered in record time… the one you drive crazy and the one who desires you in infinite ways. – he says and k****s me -your boyfriend… your lover… and whatever you want him to be. – he says over my lips and when he k****s me again, his body melts into me creating a universe of new sensations I was unaware of.

“What is all this madness?” I ask myself while I feel that his body and mine have been made for each other… I feel that I could survive from his k****s alone, from his caresses, from his body and now I understand what he told me.

-Izan…” I pronounce his name incoherently as he moves in me. He looks at me, slows the rhythm of his thrusts and waits for me to speak, “Now I know what you’re talking about…” I say in agitation and cling to his back.

-What? – she asks confused.

-I know you’re the man of my life too,” I say and k**s him again. – I tell him and k**s him again.

I have no words to describe what I feel now… it’s the most incredible madness of my life, the most worthwhile and the one I would repeat infinitely if I had the chance to do it. Her body and mine are burning lava that burns us making us lose our minds and here I turn her back into my salvation board in the middle of this shipwreck that has no end and I don’t think it will have one.

The best of my life has a name and surname and looks at me agitated after having fallen into an endless abyss that makes us feel full and happy.
