The Devil's Temptation!

124 Cravings*

Anna felt her heart freeze as she stood still, looking impassive as a statue and she shook her head, not willing to let her mind believe that she was seeing someone who had a striking resemblance to her.

“It’s you!” Her voice came out as a whisper, as though the air in her lungs had been sucked out, rendering her mute, but the lady just chuckled lightly at her ghastly demeanor before taking a step towards the frozen Anna.

“Isn’t it weird to be afraid of your own reflection?” Asked the lady whose face beamed innocently, a complete contrast to the cold expression she saw in her dream the other day and she didn’t know which facial demeanor to believe.

“Who are you?”

“That’s too easy,” she waved it off, “you still have time, figure it out before your death day.”

She smiled and turned to leave, but then she stopped and her brows rose like she just recalled something, “before I forget,” she looked at Anna again, “with the little time you have left, I’ll advise you use it to make yourself happy, if it’s right or wrong, it shouldn’t matter now should it? After All you will end up dying so you’ll have little or no time to even regret it.” She hummed lightly, but Anna didn’t get exactly what she was trying to hint at.

“What do you mean?”

The lady wore her cloak back and turned her back to the befuddled Annalise, “you know what I mean, but if you keep denying it to yourself, you might not get the answer to it,” and she walked off.

‘I keep denying it?’ What is she trying to say? When Anna raised her head up to call her back, she was nowhere to be seen.

.....

“Anna.” Roshan’s voice instantly snapped Annalise out from her trance and she lifted her startled gaze to meet him. She was back in Ark Ville, back in their candle-lit room.

“Did something happen?” Questioned Roshan as he noticed a bit of worry contorting her face, “I lost you for a moment there.”

Anna opened her mouth to tell him exactly what happened, but then she stopped before the word’s could manage to slip from her lips. For some reason, she didn’t want to tell Roshan about it since she was unsure of what the lady who looked just like her was trying to pinpoint.

“I_” she sighed before shaking it off, “it’s nothing important actually, I was just..... interrupted.”

She looked away from him and it was clear her mind was in a state of mental rejection.

“I just need a bit of distraction, I’ll be fine.”

“Distraction?”

She nodded before avoiding his hypnotizing stare again, only now was she starting to realize that they were both sitting together on a bed, her bed and it rang an alarming bell in Anna’s head.

“I want_” she got to her feet, wanting to escape from the closeness but he held her hand and effortlessly pulled her back to sit on the bed beside him.

“Where are you going?” He asked and Anna just pointed at the bathroom without saying a word to him.

“Really? Or are you trying to avoid my presence?”

“No! I mean..I_”

His lips found hers when she tried to speak, earning him a kiss but it was only brief as he moved back quickly.

“Are you afraid I’d do something like that?”

“You just did.” She concluded and he smirked, “I’m not done yet.”

The room suddenly grew quiet after he made that phrase, so quiet that Anna could hear her heartbeat drumming rapidly against her chest.

She didn’t avert her gaze this time and those hazel-green eyes of his glowed like the sparks of fire, the golden light from the candles created a warmth that made his features look soft, but more taunting and she already pictured something unutterable in her head.

Her mind told her to get up and avoid this, there was still time to escape his heated gaze and those inviting lips, but deep down, she didn’t want to escape any of this, she wanted to know what it felt like to actually kiss him again, to hold him, to feel him and this was something she always nagged him for, but look at her, feeling all desperate on the inside.

Seeing she made no move to flee as he intentionally took his time before leaning close to her, Roshan’s sensuous lips finally found hers, leaving Anna’s eyes to close partly as those soft lips of his gently met hers.

Her heart missed a bit when his lips demandingly tugged at her lower lip, creating a friction that made her body hum to life as her eyes closed shut. Her fingers digging into the duvet on the bed.

His hand reached for the back of her head, angling it correctly as he sucked tenderly on her lips till they became supple and wet, and he kissed it, liking the outcome of it as they looked like two budded roses.

Anna didn’t raise a protest this time as his actions made her body heat up and she felt butterflies flying around her stomach, her mind told her how wrong this was, but at the same time, she didn’t seem to care at all, at least not now as she reciprocated against his sweet agonizing kisses that made her want to cry out.

He pulled back to meet her stare, watching her eyes flutter open and they glistened with untold fascination.

“I want you to touch me.” He coaxed before reaching for her fingers that buried themselves in the duvet, he brought her hands to his toned chest before claiming those luscious lips of hers again, his hands found its way to her waist, pulling her closer and a gasp left her lips, giving him the opening he was looking for as his hot tongue invaded her mouth, tasting and feeling every inch of her sweet carnals.

Every nerve in Anna’s body seemed like a harp-string ready to snap at his touch. She never knew kissing someone could actually feel this good, so good rather, or was it just like this with him??

Her hands crumpled his shirt as he took the kiss deeper and before she realized it, her own hands were ready to explore as they slid up his toned chest, feeling it through the fabric of his shirt before reaching for his neck until they made their way to the back of his head, burying her fingers into his soft silky hair and relishing the moment.

Roshan couldn’t explain what he felt at the moment, having her this close to him was already intoxicating enough. It was somehow foreign, he’s had women before, but what he experienced then, was nothing compared to what he’s experiencing now. He just wanted to eat the fragile woman up, but knew he couldn’t cross his limit and it frustrated him.

He pulled back to meet her blurry stare, still not satisfied with what he’s getting from her.

“I want more.” He kissed her harder, causing Anna’s heart to jump in her chest as they engaged in a wet kiss, their tongues twisting and mating with one another. Their bodies were already pressed against each other, but he pulled her closer as though the closeness wasn’t enough and Anna barely had time to catch her breath, but it didn’t matter because she was lost in the pleasure he was making her experience.

He explored her sweet mouth with his demanding tongue, to the point his Demons equally wanted a piece of her, she was his mate afterall and if he didn’t stop, he couldn’t picture what might happen next cause his self-control was already hanging on the edge.

Taking his tongue back into his mouth, he pulled back for real this time and placed a tender kiss at the top of her forehead.

He was selfish, he wanted her, he doesn’t think he has the strength to depart himself from her, she was his mate, the woman who does things to him without even having to do a thing at all.

It was too late to do anything about that now. She was his.

“Anna.” He made her meet his stare, her chest heaved up and down as she tried to take a breath and he could see she hadn’t had enough either, they weren’t satisfied, but they had to end it here.

“Roshan I_” she stopped herself from saying something that she might not be able to take back, he literally ignited the flame in her system and she wanted nothing more than to quench it.

“Not here.” He told her in that seductive hoarse tone of his and he knew she understood what he was trying to say, “not here.”

Knowing what he meant, her cheeks burned in response and he got to his feet, not trusting himself and his mind at the moment.

He went into the bathroom, leaving Annalise to recover in the bedroom. She hugged her body as a sudden crave to touch him again clouded her senses.

She craved for his taste again and she saw it as nothing but pure torture, knowing the person her body was hungrily craving for, was right in front of her, but it was impossible to reach him.
