Aurora

Aurora felt something stir deep within her as she tried to process his words.

Matteo raised his brow at her silence. "I am a very impatient man, Aurora, and I do hate to repeat myself."

He crossed his arms over his chest, awaiting for her to comply to what he had instructed her to do. Aurora began to strip herself away from her shy nature that restricted her from having many sorts of interactions with Matteo, and fell into the submissive state of obeying his command.

She slowly began to turn around, making sure she didn't twirl too fast. She wanted him to see every inch of this nighty, his burning gaze settling on her body and ignited a hot fire in her blood.

When her back had turned to face him she could make out a few curse words leaving his mouth and for some reason, she felt good about this. In this moment of heat she felt good enough to please the eyes of Matteo as she gifted him with this exotic view.

Her eyes met his darkened ones when she had completed the full turn, and he walked closer to her. "Shit." he whispered.

Her head tilted further upward when he stopped in front of her. "You're so fucking beautiful, agnellino. Do you realize that, hmm?"

He grasped her chin in his hand, pulling her face closer to him. His hot breath fanned her face as she could feel her body shiver from his sudden dominating aura and immense amount of craving that she felt for him.

"Matteo." she whispered, her eyes flitting down for a second to his lips.

"My pretty little baby." He touched his thumb to her bottom lip, gently caressing them. "Pretty little vixen trying out seduction, hmm?"

Oh my.

This was a side of him that he must have never shown to anyone else. His words alone were enough to make her knees weak and she enjoyed the pleasure they brought her.

A little noise escaped her mouth at his question, too in a frenzy to even answer him. Her body along with her mind, both begged for more of him, more of his touch as the sensation she felt became addictive.

He seemed displeased by her lack of response and he slightly tapped her cheek with his index finger. "I need words, Aurora."

"Please."

"Please, what?"

Please? What was she asking for?

She was begging on the inside. She had no idea what it was that she was asking for exactly, but it was only established that it was something from him. More of his touch, more of him, whatever it was she needed it.

"Tell me what it is that you want." he gripped her chin a bit harder but not enough to hurt.

Her words could not be released from within her as she desired to express to him what it is she wanted, needed. She grabbed hold of his shirt, squeezing it with her fists as she peered up at him. She reflected everything it is she wanted him to know in her eyes, presenting the message hidden in her hooded eyes that resembled his darkened ones.

Her eyes spoke to him and she knew that he realized what she meant. With his free hand, Matteo brushed the locks of hair off from her shoulder, exposing the skin to him. He dipped his head down in order for his lips to come into contact with her hot flesh, creating a shock wave to spread through her body from the contact.

She gasped as he trailed soft kisses along her shoulder blade, continuing a path to where her neck connected with her shoulder. Her hands slid up his front, the bumps of his hard muscles pressing against her palms at the delicious sensation his lips brought to her body.

"Matteo." she whispered with a small moan slipping past her lips.

Matteo groaned softly at the sound, his hand that rested on her chin now gliding down her slim neck. His fingers wrapped gently around her neck, the coldness of his rings creating a contrast against her already hot skin that burnt with the strong tension in her body.

With his hand now grasping her neck, she felt the position to be even more erotic that it caused a tingling feeling to spark in her lower region.

"So beautiful." he whispered as he peppered her skin with delicate kisses. "So fucking beautiful."

Everything about this moment was hot and she didn't want it to stop. She leaned her head to the back, exposing more of her neck for him. His lips met the tender flesh of her sweet spot in her neck, and she, without realizing it, dug her nails into his skin.

She released a moan, one that was a bit louder this time.

She peered up to see that he had stopped with the assault of his lips on her neck. She was panting heavily as her shaky hands rested on his shoulders, gripping his shirt. There was so much in the air around them that she could feel herself slipping into the submission of wanting to be at his mercy.

Matteo cussed under his breath, his sudden mood change confusing Aurora during her state of new feelings emerging. He placed both of his hands on-top of hers that rested on his shoulders and took them off, holding them.

"Sorry. Fuck, I'm so sorry." he began to apologize, shaking his head.

She felt a prick in her heart.

Why was he apologizing?Did he regret what he did? If he did, she would be hurt by that and extremely guilty for wanting to seduce him into whatever it is she wanted.

"What-"

He kissed both of her hands, his lips lingering on each of them. "You should get some rest. You must be pretty tired from all the shopping today."

"What? No, I-"

"Aurora." he stopped her. "We'll talk tomorrow, okay?"

She didn't say anything to him, dumbstruck by how quickly he had changed. He gave her one last look before turning around and leaving the room. He left her confused with so many thoughts and emotions swirling around inside of her.

She must admit she was actually sick of this happening all the time. Her heart was still racing and her body still tingled from where his lips had been, leaving an imaginary mark on her that engraved into her skin.

She was still lost in the heat of the moment from what had transpired between them, and her confidence couldn't be shaken from a slight rejection.

She wanted to hear it from him why he had run away. She balled her hands into fists, adamant on not leaving this matter for tomorrow. She marched out of her room, to get across to his where his door was closed shut.

She flung open the door, not bothering to knock knowing that he would most likely not open it either way. Matteo spun around, his shirt was unbuttoned clearly showing that he was in the middle of undressing for bed.

He opened his mouth to say something but Aurora had already beaten him to it.

"Have I done something to upset you?"

Matteo sighed. "You haven't done anything wrong." He took off his shirt and threw it onto the couch.

"Then why did you leave?"

"We can talk about this tomorrow, Aurora."

"No." she said stubbornly. "I want to talk about this now."

Matteo turned around and she gulped harshly at how hard his stare was. His brows were dipped and his jaw had clenched.

"Watch your tone, Aurora." he warned.

"I'm sorry." she whispered, lowering her gaze. "You always do this and I really want to know why."

"Do what?"

She played with her fingers, her burst of confidence now fading away. "You would always say or do something and then leave, as if you regret it. Why?"

Matteo didn't respond to her question and that made her even more upset. She could feel tears begin to prick her eyes and wet her lashes.

"I know you regret what happened and I'm sor-"

"I don't regret what I've done." he said plainly.

Aurora grew even more confused and agitated. She looked at him, tears brimming in her eyes as she clutched the material tightly between her fingers.

"You don't?" she whispered.

He stared blankly at her and that was enough to confirm it. She bit her lip, fisting her hands tighter.

"Then tell me the reason. Why is it that you do that all the time? What happened earlier-"

"Is exactly what I never wanted to happen."

Her head snapped up, shocked by what he said. Matteo closed his eyes for a brief moment, but when he opened them he turned his head to stare anywhere but her.

He clenched his jaw. "I've never touched a woman in my life nor desired to experience intimacy with one. Whether they had worn clothes that could show much more skin than what you've shown, it never interested me."

He locked eyes with her. "And yet I lost self control just by seeing you in a fucking nighty."

Her breath hitched in her throat.

He chuckled to himself, rubbing his forehead with his hand. "God damnit Aurora, what the fuck are you doing to me, hmm?"

She didn't reply to him. She had no idea what to say to him.

"I shouldn't be this way, yet I am."

"Matteo." was all she muttered.

There was nothing left to say from both of them. From her side she was left speechless, only because of the things that she didn't expect to hear from his mouth. She knew that Matteo wouldn't indulge further in this simply because he was a man of honesty but especially since never overshared.

He wouldn't dwell further on this topic and that was the reason for the silence that enveloped the pair. She felt awkward standing there just gaping at him so she urged her body to move towards him. When she was a few centimeters away from him, she rested her forehead on his chest and closed her eyes.

For some reason, she was feeling extremely happy.
