Her heart skipped a beat as she heard his voice. She forgot how to breathe as she heard her name from his mouth.

"Was that for real?"

"Is that him?"

Before turning back, she contemplated about a hundred and one questions inside of her tiny little head. She hesitated for a moment and paused, but then turned all of a sudden, to find him sitting on her bed, looking at her with his eyes filled with nothing but pure desire.

"Why... why are you here?"

She stammered and her panicked heart blurted out without a second thought.

"Because I thought you wanted me here?"

And saying that he got up from the bed and slowly started walking towards her,

"What are you doing?"

"Trying hard not to scare you away."

Hearing his lines, she again looked into his eyes which looked like they were stoned and asked,

"Why are you always this smug?"

"Tell me how you want me to be."

He said and inched even closer.

She started retreating back with every step that he took to increase his proximity. Grabbing on to her towel tightly she was continuously schooling her heart which just wanted to cave in and run into his arms.

She had fought with him and wanted to continue the fight properly. But she never imagined that he was going to make it so hard for her to stay angry with him.

Pouting her lips she looked at him and said,

"This is so not going to fix my madness. I am still angry with you."

"But I heard you say so", Raymond replied with a smirk.

"What do you mean?"

Inching the gap in between he came closer and said,

"Someone just told a couple of minutes back that I am apparently the only medicine that she needs."

Akira looked at his smug face all surprised and then understood the whole thing.

"This is unexpectedly taking advantage of the tracking device. If you keep doing that, then I am going to stop wearing it someday"

The moment Raymond heard her say that he came even closer making her rest her back on the wall. He had her pinned and with one jerk, he could have made that towel fall. But instead, his eyes turned all fierce and he spoke,

"Never !!! Like ever do you dare to take this locket out" and saying that he pulled her hand lower which was holding on tight both the ends of the towel and plated a kiss right in between her bosom.

Just with his touch, she lost all the control over her body and mind and closed her eyes. Her hands turned all non-tactile and the grip that she had around the towel loosened.

But he held it tight.

Looking at her soft blissful face he knew that she had melted. His job was done, but there was no stopping for his own greed.

He looked at her and wanted instant gratification. His heart ached for her touch but seeing her all unarmed and in surrendered mode, he took a deep breath and pulled the towel up and wrapped her up like a toffee.

Feeling the soft embrace of the towel all-around her, she opened her eyes and looked at him with her eyes filled with surprise. She was expecting him to touch her, to violate her in every possible way, but Raymond, being that perfect gentleman that he was, had wrapped her up, knowing that there was nothing underneath.

"What do you want?"

She asked looking into his eyes.

"All your trust and all your love. I want is all back Akira. I can't see you angry with me. I cannot live like that. It suffocates me", and saying that he slowly pushed away the strands of wet hair from her face and said,

"I promise that from now on I will be like water with you. All transparent. All open. You will see."

Taking a deep breath Akira looked at him and said,

"I trust you. In fact, I trust you more than myself. I can walk on the daggers if you ask me to Raymond." And saying that she tiptoed and kissed his lips softly.

"Why would you risk so much and come here?", she asked and looked at him with nothing but love-filled in her eyes.

"For this kiss", and saying that he sealed her lips with his own.

For a moment she stood all breathless, trying to assimilate the surge of feelings inside of her. In response to his wet and warm touch, she parted her lips like a door for him, to barge in. And he came in all strong and all wild, tantalizing her with the action of his tongue, rendering her all breathless.

As she whimpered and moaned he detached himself all of a sudden for the lord had been aroused.

Looking at her with his sultry and demonic eyes, he said,

"Let me help you finish your bath first."
