Chereads / Saving A Stranger (On Hold) / Chapter 23 - Only Mine

Chapter 23 - Only Mine

They both became the center of attention as people stared at them in awe, the scene of a man dragging a suitcase and holding a woman's hand in his looks very eye-catching, plus the ambiance the man was emitting is very frigid while that of the woman was warm, which they thought was perfect, they were simply a match made in heaven, some onlookers took out their phones and quickly captured this scene on their phones unaware to the pair.

Those pictures and videos were surely going to cause some ruckus delinquent. Renly opened the door for Zilvshun, she sat inside and buckled the seatbelt. Renly placed the suitcase in the trunk of the car before hopping into the driver's seat and igniting the engine as it purred softly without protest.

Zilvshun didn't say a word throughout the entire drive as she was too exhausted to do so. The silence in the car didn't bother her but it seems like it was suffocating for Renly because he kept glancing her way now and then. Zilvshun frowned seeing that they were taking another path out of the city instead of going home.

" Where are we going?" she asked herself inwardly but didn't ask the man who was driving which he noticed, knowing that she was not asking him made nervously. Renly drove for ten minutes away from the city and five minutes into the woods, still the woman didn't ask him anything, not even a single word.

The car came to a stop in front of a small story building, lights were on the trees and around the walls of the house, it was beautiful, Zilvshun unbuckled her seatbelt, got out of the car, and shut the door behind her while Renly walked around the car and towards her nervously.

He grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the door of the house with a smile, he hopes she liked his arrangements. Renly took a deep breath as he grabbed the keys to the house and inserted them in.

He opened the door slowly while Zilvshun took a step inside the house with a surprised look, she took several steps into the living room which was lit up with candles, she walked towards the kitchen and dining with a smile as she saw that a table with two chairs facing each other was set with a red table cloth on the table, a bottle of wine laid in ice, two plates laid on each side of the table with cutleries and two glasses each on the side of the plates with candles lit around the table. She walked back with a smile, she wondered why he has done all this, she was surprised that he has done all this just to welcome her back.

" Why all this?" she asked with raised brows as he walked towards her with an intense gaze. Renly took her hands into his gently before snaking a hand around her waist and pulling her to himself. The attraction was getting stronger and stronger or maybe it was something different.

"I'm sorry for what I did last time, I'm truly sorry for everything," he apologized sincerely as he caressed her cheeks gently.

"I understand and besides I have no right to feel angry or jealous. It's your past and no one can forget their past and move on quickly so I don't want to dwell on what happened last week, I just want peace and I want you to feel peaceful around me, even if we don't love each other, I want us to respect each other, that is all I ask for, " she said with a smile. Renly couldn't believe his ears, how could she be so compassionate and forgiving? He thought she would have said something like, "Let's end this relationship or take me out of here".

"Thank you," he whispered as he hugged her tightly and kissed the side of her neck before letting go, he didn't want to go far while they were both still strangers in a relationship.

" Let's get something into your belly, you must be starving," he said as he pulled her towards the dining. After having dinner, they both cleaned the place they ate before going upstairs, upon reaching the room Zilvshun's mouth opened widely, she couldn't control her emotions.

Petals were everywhere in the room with scented candles lit at every single corner of the room. She turned around to look at the young man with mixed emotions, what she felt at that moment was hard to describe but she knew what it was and she was shocked herself.

She walked into the room with her head spinning with the discovery of her feelings. Renly's brows drew together when he noticed her unease, does she not like it, if she doesn't like it then it is fine. He would clean it up and tell her it was okay even if she dislike what he did.

" Are you okay," he asked instead of asking if she doesn't like what he did. Hearing his husky voice made her heart beat widely in her chest, she placed her hands on her chest as she closed her eyes while the man walked behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist but she quickly untangled his arms and headed for the bathroom door while muttering just a minute.

Renly sighed as he took off his leather jacket and boots before sitting on the bed while Zilvshun quickly took a shower and used the door inside the bathroom to get into the closet, she put on one of his shirts and boxers before exiting the closet using another door which led to the bedroom.

She stood before the man who was busy typing away on his cell phone with a scowl plastered on his handsome face. He looked cute with his lips pursed tightly while he furrowed his brows in displeasure which made a harmless giggle left her mouth causing him to look up immediately.

Renly gulped looking at her, she was wearing a shirt of his with her beautiful legs exposed as she walked towards him. Renly stood up suddenly and walked towards her, meeting her midway as he wrapped his arms around her and started leaving wet kisses on her face, lips, and neck, the more he lowered his lips on her skin, the greater the fire blazes between them.

Ooohhh..." he heard her moan softly as she thug at his hair making him groaned slightly. He was burning with desire, the lust wasn't helping at all. He ran a hand up her smooth thigh as a gasp left her lips, that single gasp made his trouser tighten painfully, and his hands continued to explore her skin until he got to her belly which he caressed tenderly.

"Aaa....mmmmm.." she moaned against his lips, her hot breath fanning his face as he groaned possessively.

"What are you doing to me Hermosa," Renly asked in a whisper after breaking the kiss. He has never felt anything like this before, not even that woman he dated in the past could melt him with words or even a simple kiss but the stranger in his arms could do that and more.

" I don't know how I feel but I know I want you, I want you in many ways. I want to have you to myself only, I crave a taste of you Hermosa," she heard him say, looking into her eyes with complicated emotions. " Goodness, nothing can describe what you do to me and how much I want you," he muttered under his breath. "I want to you and only you," he said pleadingly.

"Then take me," he heard her reply softly but firmly which shocked him." I want to do it with you too," she said rubbing her thumb on his lips as his breath hitched. " Are you sure, I don't want to hurt you, I don't want to bring pain into your life because this relationship might not hold," he said trying to step back but Zilvshun held him in place.

" I want this okay or do you want me to go and do it with someone else..?" she replied and asked coldly causing him to stiffen. Renly who heard her clenched his jaw tightly as he pulled her to himself possessively.

" You can only do it with me, you are mine and I am the only man who has the right to do that with you. I will kill any man who would set his eyes on you or try to take what is mine," he told her possessively, the way he spoke his words made her eyes go wide. She has never heard anything like that before.

"I know," she muttered which he smiled at before capturing her lips in a searing kiss. Zilvshun has made up her mind that whatever happens she would just go with the flow, she didn't want to let go of this man, even though she was aware that she might lose him in the end but even so she decided not to push him away, from now on she would stand by him.
