Chapter 85: I own you, do not forget that
Ming Tao stayed still. He let his wife’s tongue into his mouth and let her kiss him. Mira shoved him closer to her and let her hands wrap around his neck till they intertwined behind him.
Now she devoured him. Dominating his mouth with her tongue as she fiercely claimed him. Ming Tao belonged to her, only her and the only woman who would be good enough to be in his bed and carry his baby would be her. No one else, and this was only a little display of that.
That bitch Shu Hua needed to know the Mighty cheetah was Mira’s man and back off. Or Mira would make her back off by making her disappear, for good.
Ming Tao’s hands found Mira’s waist and settled behind it. He pulled her to him, holding her possessively against his groin. His cock thrushed against his pants at their body contact. He felt her body heat collide with his and it bloomed into a dark desire.
He did not care who was there, all he wanted to do to her was breed. All night. Non stop.
Mira moaned. Ming Tao changed the trajectory of the kiss and dug his tongue into her mouth, twining it against hers roughly. His fingers were roughy and raw against her skin, holding her like the sin he always wanted but never had.
Another moan slid out her throat, right into his mouth. Ming Tao groaned at that. He let his teeth catch her bottom lip and sucked hard. He wanted more of this. More of her. His hand found its way into her leaves skirt and he gripped onto the softness of her behind.
For a moment, the world came into a blur and the only thing that existed was the two of them and their bittersweet desire. Mira parted her lips sharply to catch her breath. She did not expect this. She thought this would be a simple kiss but it seemed Ming Tao had other plans. It seemed that she plus be laid after all.
"Wait, wait." Mira panted onto his face. "Let’s go to the bedroom." She breathed. Her voice was a ravaged purr.
Ming Tao stopped. Like a switch in his brain finally clicked into place, he let his hand fall down her ass and let go of her waist. He broke their body contact in an instant and cleared his throat. "I’m sorry." He worded quietly into her face before standing upright. Now, he redirected his attention to the cheetah standing in front of them.
Shu Hua did nothing but watch. And her eyes were wide with shock.
"I will reassign you into doing something else, Shu Hua. You should be grateful that I do not demand your head after that stunt you pulled." Ming Tao said. His voice was still breathy but stern.
Shu Hua shivered backwards and bowed. "Forgive me, I have committed treason." She apologised, her voice broke but Mira knew a fake apology from a mile away.
"You’re dismissed." Ming Tao uttered and Shu Hua scurried away into the room next door and shut the door. Now. It was just Mira and Ming Tao alone standing in front of the open door that led into Ming Tao’s bed chamber, completely out of breath due to their little activity. Ming Tao stared down to face her, he let his eyes linger all over her face till it rested on her lips. There were pink. Plump. And shiny from their make out. He swallowed. He wanted to taste her lips again. It was like his very own undoing.
"Do we continue what we started?" Mira asked, staring deep into his eyes. She knew he was hard. She felt his erection brush her stomach when he pulled her to him. And her pussy pooled with desire to have sex with him but with how quickly he let go when she uttered those words, she was so unsure of everything.
"No." Ming Tao said. He ran his hand into his hair. "It is late. We need to retire."
"I do not mind, Ming Tao. I would rather stay up all night with you and-"
"No. You need to retire. You have a big day tomorrow." She stated, his tone firmer this time like he didn’t want any objection. Was that an order? Was he seriously ordering her to sleep? In a world ruled by female supremacy? Was he serious?
"No I do not." Mira shot back at him.
"I do." He stated, his tone was calmer this time.
Mira could not understand. . . was he scared? She understood that the old owner of this body had not let any of her beast husbands touch her and that the old Mira did terrible things to each of them, but she was not her and she thought he already accepted that she had changed. "Ming Tao."
"No, Mira."
"I command you to-" She began, using her authority although she doubted she had any of it.
"I decline your command." Ming Tao shot back. "I need sleep tonight."
Mira had nothing to say. She was furious. He let that stupid cheetah Shu Hua touch him and when she kissed him, he kissed her back then why was he refusing to mating?
"Do I repulse you?" Mira questioned.
"No!" He responded so quickly in a heavy breath. "Far from that." He added.
"Then why? Tell me why. I am your wife, Ming Tao."
"Yes, you are. And you have already proved that. Now that you have achieved what you wanted, you can sleep happy about it."
Mira’s eyes twitched. He was being so infuriating right now that she wanted to smack him and drag him by the ear then kick him out of his own home.
"Do you really think I kissed you simply to prove a point?" She searched his eyes for answers as she asked that. This was new to her. Even on Earth, despite her being a virgin, any man would dive on the chance to get between her legs so why was he different? What was all these mixed signals? It should be her giving the mixed signals, not him!
"Isn’t that why?" Ming Tao replied.
Mira frowned. Her face reddened with rage. "Sleep out. It will save me from strangling you!" She barked then walked in and shut the door. She was running out of time and something was wrong with Ming Tao, she just had to find out what before giving into the other instinct, the one that required drugging him.
