Married to the Devil's Son novel Chapter 114

114 Chapter 54

Lucian couldn't stop thinking of what Roshan had said to him. He couldn't stop recalling his mother's sad eyes. He couldn't stop recalling what it had felt like when she had hugged him. The way she had made him feel warm and safe. Lucian couldn't understand why she had abandoned him but he thought that she probably had a good reason. He hoped so at least.

The sweet scent of Hazel suddenly filled the air. It made Lucian turn in bed so that he could see her. She had just changed into her nightgown and was letting her hair down as she walked toward the bed. These days she seemed to glow even more and he fell in love with her all over again.

She came and sat on her side of the bed with legs crossed. She seemed happy. "Roshan and Klara, Isn't that amazing. They look perfect together."

Lucian agreed. He was glad she found someone. He could still remember the pain in her eyes when he had turned down her proposal.

"Are you uncomfortable with her being here?" Hazel asked.

"No. You seem to enjoy her company."

"I do." She smiled. "She is stiff but she is genuine."

That's what he thought about Roshan. He was annoying but he was genuine. The genuine couple.

Hazel turned to him and studied him with eyes glowing with desire.

"Don't look at me like that." He warned.

These days she had been more craving, whether it was food or sex. She had never come at him like that before, without shying away. He wondered what changed.

"Are you tired?" She asked playing innocent.

"Yes." He said just to see her reaction.

She nodded but he could see the disappointment in her eyes. He couldn't understand why he enjoyed this version of her so much.

"Goodnight then." She forced herself to smile and then tucked herself under the sheets turning away from him.

"Hazel…"

"Sleep if you are tired. Hearing your voice in the dim light makes it more difficult for me." She admitted.

Lucian couldn't stop smiling to himself. He was glad that he wasn't the only one struggling to control himself sometimes. He thought of letting her experience it for a while. But Hazel was restless. She kept turning back and forth in bed unable to sleep.

Once she even called his name to see if he was awake but he pretended to be asleep.

How could he be so cruel? He thought to himself.

With a sigh, she turned the other way again.

Lucian opened his eyes. He watched her back for a while than ever so slowly he reached his hand out and trailed his fingers down her back.

"Hazel," He shifted closer to her. She turned on her back and looked at him surprised.

"Did I wake you?" She asked.

Lucian nodded.

"I am sorry. I just…" She tried to come up with an excuse.

"You just what?"

"Hazel, it's autumn and it's cold outside."

"Oh yes, I…"

He knew he was being petty, wanting her to admit what she wanted.

"I won't bother you anymore." She said apologetically.

"But I want you to bother me."

It took her a while to understand what he meant and then slowly her eyes gleamed again. Lucian leaned down to kiss her unable to stop himself but to his surprise, she pushed him away and down on his back before placing herself on top of him.

Lucian was stunned by her sudden strength but didn't comment on it. He was too caught up in the moment and didn't want to ruin it. The way she looked at him, it was as if she had never seen him before or as if she just fell in love with him again.

Hazel leaned down, capturing his lips in a soft kiss while her hands trailed down his bare chest. The simple touch of her fingertips inflamed him but he stayed still. Tonight he would let her be in control. He was curious to know what she would do to him.

Hazel kissed a path down his jaw and neck. "You smell so good." She murmured.

"And how do I taste?" He asked breathless.

"I'll have to taste again," She said before capturing his mouth again.
