A MAZE OF GREED - Chapter 419

Ruth and Edwin finally surrendered to their desires. The desire of having each other, tasing each other. Ruth was still gasping for air after their first kiss. Her face was flushed in dark pink, her pupils dilated in lust and her lips red and swollen from Edwin’s ruthless strikes.

The thing that poked her lower belly made her uncomfortable, yet it also sent shivers down right there. Edwin’s large hands roamed all over her, touching her, squeezing her, pulling closer to him if it was possible.

The trail his hands left on her body made her feel vulnerable, yet she loved that feeling.

Leaving her lips, Edwin’s mouth slid down to her throat. He left open mouth kisses on the length of her throat. Ruth had no idea that she was capable of making such weird sounds that did not feel like hers.

Edwin kept making that distinct sound at the back of his throat that sent bolts of passion through her veins.

His tongue licked her skin before grazing his teeth on it, only to lick it again. Ruth felt weak in her knees as this attack of passion was too much for her to bear.

Edwin picked her up without detaching his mouth from her skin. Ruth did not know what was about to come her way when Edwin pushed the things placed on the table nearby with one swift motion of his hand.

The clattering sound of things falling on the ground made her look that way. Edwin placed her on the table, and now they both were eye to eye.

He lifted his head up to gaze into her eyes with his dark ones.

By now, every inch of her skin where his mouth had marked its territory was burning… burning with need.

“I love you! I missed you so much my Luna!!”

His voice sounded strange to her ears. It felt like someone else was speaking from inside him, and it all was very confusing.

“Wh-who are you?” she could not help but ask.

She saw him clenching his jaw. Did she ask anything wrong?

“I am Edwin, Ruth. Your Edwin! The man you would and should always love!!”

No. This was not her Edwin. He had never ordered her around. He never tried to dominate over her. He was always gentle and considerate.

This man with unusual dark eyes could not be her Edwin.

Seeing the question marks swirling in her orbs, Edwin’s wolf got angry. Did she not trust him at all? Or was she having doubts about loving him?

He made another rumbling noise that vibrated his chest. Digging his fingertips in her cheeks, he held her face in his hand.

“Say you love me! Tell me that you missed me as much as I missed you. Say it!” He hissed dangerously.

She was scared. Yes! But then why his darkness allured her? Why did she think she could win over it?

“Edwin!” She warned bravely.

“What love?” He whispered sensually against her cheek.

Did she hear mischief in his tone?

Edwin’s hand reached for the front of her dress that covered her chest. He began leaving peppery kisses on every inch of her skin that his mouth found.

“Say it Ruth” He whispered against her delicate skin while his other hand began working on the hooks of her dress at her front.

“E-Edwin p-please”

The tingles in her womanhood erupted like a burning volcano. She curled her toes as she tried to press her legs together in an attempt of stopping those weird sensations in her core.

Before she got successful, Edwin pushed himself in between her legs, obstructing her tries at controlling her desires.

She felt him dragging a long breath in, then humming in satisfaction.

“Your scent is so damn salacious love!”

Ruth frowned. “Wh-what scent?” She asked dumbly.

Edwin raised his head up to her ear then whispered. “The scent of your arousal!”

Ruth’s eyeballs popped out of their sockets as his words came with another shock. He was done opening the front of her gown, and now his hand slipped inside to grab her left breast over her petticoat. The petticoat she was wearing under did nothing to obstruct the feel of his touch as it stuck to her skin like a second layer of her skin.

Edwin took the opportunity for his benefit when Ruth gasped in shock. He instantly attacked her mouth as he could not get enough of her sweetness.

This time their kiss was not only intense, but it was also passionate, filled with both of their carnal desires. Edwin kept squeezing her soft cushiony mound, rubbed its hard tip with his thumb.

Ruth had never felt such euphoria before. She had thought about the touch a male and a female shared, but she could have never imagined that it would feel so out of this world in reality.

The sounds of their kisses filled the room, and the wetness between Ruth’s legs pushed her to the cliff. The tension that began building inside her lower tummy made her scream and latch onto Edwin.

She needed the release, and only Edwin could give it to her.

Edwin could have gone on kissing her, but she was a human and humans gets tired soon. He let her gasp for air, and meanwhile, he shifted his target from her soft plump lips to her round breasts.

He began placing open mouth kisses on her exposed chest. The aftereffect of drenching in rain kicked in as goosebumps formed on her body.

Ruth could not bear the strikes of passion Edwin inflicted on her. He pushed her behind, and she obliged. Her head rested on the table, and now her whole upper body was presented to Edwin to devour and treat his wolf.

With one swift motion, Edwin untied the knot of her nightgown and now the dress fell to both of her sides, as the curtains pulled away on the stage before the beginning of his favourite play.

Ruth lay there, panting, her chest heaving up and down in only her petticoat. The thin cloth left nothing for Edwin’s imagination.

“Ruth…. you are so fucking beautiful!” His raspy voice turned Ruth into mush.

He dipped down and began trailing kisses from her throat, her chest, then in between her luscious breasts, then down on her abdomen only to stop just an inch above the line of her panties.

Ruth felt his lips even though the petticoat was still attempting to cover her from this predator.

Edwin’s wolf was taking over. He could feel it. He glided his hand up her leg then under her petticoat. His fingertips grazed her inner things and were about to touch her wet pussy when she suddenly held his hand.

Edwin’s dark eyes moved up to look at her frightened ones.

A couple of moments passed as their eyes spoke the silent conversation. She slowly shook her head. And Edwin knew what she meant.

But what about his wolf?

Edwin had to choose- his and his wolf’s needs or the feelings and care of his woman.

He did not need much time to decide, although only he knew how hard it was for him to restrain himself. He clenched his eyes closed, his body covered in sweat and shivering.

Ruth gulped down nervously, not sure if he would listen to her. Yet she prayed that he did.

He had his hand just where he wanted. An inch or two, and he would cup her womanhood and do whatever he wanted with her. And the way her body reacted to him, he was sure that Ruth would not be able to stop then.

But that was not Edwin’s concern. She wanted him to stop NOW when he had just begun with her.

Ruth released a shaky breath, which she was not aware of holding when Edwin fell on her chest. She felt him removing his hand from under her petticoat, and rest it on her waist.

“I know you are not ready.” He whispered.

He sounded exhausted and more like himself. That animalistic voice was replaced by his natural deep one.

“I… I am sorry!”

Ruth did not know why she was apologising, but at that moment, her words felt right.

Edwin looked up, and she was again taken by shock to see his eyes in their natural cerulean blue colour.

How?

“No need to say sorry, Ruth. You have done no wrong. It is good that you stopped me at the right time or…”

“Or?” She persisted.

“Or I wouldn’t be able to stop myself!”

A shiver ran down her spine. He said it more like a warning. So she only nodded wordlessly.

A minute later, she felt him moving and the next second, she lost the warmth of his body. Now with calmer nerves and with a sense of surroundings, Ruth felt shy looking down at her state.

She instantly wrapped her nightgown around her body. Edwin helped her get down the table.

“Our clothes are still wet. There are some dry clothes that we forgot to take with us in the past.” He said.

Indeed, there were clothes in the cupboard from the time they stayed there. Edwin left with his clothes to change in the next room, although he had just seen her in the most intimate condition.

Ruth pulled herself together and changed her dress. Ten minutes later, when Edwin returned, he looked more like his usual self.

“Erm… I think… I… I should lea-”

“Stay!” He pulled her to his chest before staring down at her.

“Stay this night with me.” It was more of a request than an order.

And just like that, she agreed without much thinking. Today this man proved that whatever was wrong with him, he would never do something that would hurt her.. And that faith made her sleep the rest of the night without any worries in his arms.
