Chapter 266: How much I missed you!
Ryle’s chin felt like it was scalded. Up so close, he could see her thick eyelashes as she narrowed those beautiful eyes at him oh so suspiciously.
’’N..Nothing.’’
’’You are stuttering.’’
’’You are too beautiful.’’
’’I am a mess right now. I haven’t even combed my hair.’’
Ryle frowned, ’’I don’t what I should do to make you believe that you can not do that for ages and still be the most beautiful woman in this world.’’
Daisy’s face felt rather warm under his searing gaze. She shook her head inwardly, reminding herself to not be distracted, ’’You stuttered when you looked away. Are you saying that the wall is beautiful as well?"
Ryle sighed.
’’Tell me what you have done.’’
’’Why do you think I have done something?"
"You... are being too sweet to me out of blue,’’ Daisy said after a momentary thought.
’’Sweetheart, are you suggesting that I am not sweet to you on other days?"
Looking at his wronged face, Daisy felt like she had misspoken somehow, ’’I didn’t mean it like that.’’ She slowly retracted her fingers from under his chin.
He scoffed, ’’How did you mean it then?"
’’It’s not that you are not good to me. But usually...’’ It’s a combination of good and rough that settles so well with me that my body thrums with anticipation. But today, it was all sweet and warm, exceptionally so, so much that I felt like I was a child who was being pampered and taken care of.
’’Usually what, Daze?"
Daisy pinched the spot between her brows, ’’Usually, you cannot keep your hands off me the moment I come back from work...’’ she mumbled under her breath, ’’But today, you did not.’’
’’Did you dislike it?"
’’I did not say so?"
’’Then why does it look like you are sulking about it?" Ryle took a step closer to her.
’’I am not... Ah...’’
The rest of her words got caught in her throat as Ryle hoisted her up with one of his arms wrapped around her waist. Daisy’s legs instinctively wrapped around his waist, ’’What are you doing? Put me down. Somebody...’’
’’Nobody will see us. They, my darling, are all asleep.’’
Daisy hooked her arms around his neck, meeting his teasing gaze, ’’Then we should sleep too.’’
A warmth trailed down her spine as his other palm rested on her back, his fingers drawing idle circles on her skin through the fabric of her nightdress, ’’Let me touch you well first. Well enough for you to realize how desperate I have been in your absence.’’
Daisy felt a coolness seeping through her clothes as he placed her on the kitchen counter, his palm gliding under her nightdress before.
’’I couldn’t tell,’’ Daisy quirked a brow, saying words that she was going to regret in every way later on, ’’After all, you did not even kiss me after I came back from work... ahh...’’
’’Shh.. You gotta be real quiet unless you want to wake everyone up and let them witness how much I missed you. It might be a good show for people...’’ he paused, flicking her off the surface before he flipped her around and entered inside her with a rough thrust from behind, ’’...but nobody other than me is ever going to see you like this.’’
Daisy gasped by the intensity of his thrust but the pain lingered only for a moment before being taken over by an intense pleasure that rocked his body. His obscene words, just as they always did, made her clench around him so tight that he groaned and slowed down his thrusts before slamming inside her even harder.
Ryle fisted her hair in a firm yet painful grip as he thrust inside her from behind, his other palm reaching out to cup her breast that was gliding against the cold kitchen countertop with every thrust.
And then, in every position, in every corner of the kitchen, Ryle touched her till it was 3 am in the morning. Till Daisy understood it loud and clear that it was not that he was unwilling to touch her or kiss her. But he was afraid that she was still sore from their morning activities, he was refraining from kissing her too plainly because he was worried he would not be able to stop once he did. Ryle wordlessly explained till Daisy was gasping and moaning, whispering in his ears that she knew she was wrong.
’’How wrong?" Ryle whispered back as he placed her back on the countertop, and adjusted her nightgown.
Daisy did not have any strength left in her to argue with him. She wordlessly wrapped her arms around him and pulled him closer, before pressing her lips against his.
Ryle held the back of her neck and deepened the kiss before parting from her. He then walked to the other side of the kitchen and poured her a glass of water before walking back to her, ’’You were thirsty.’’
’’That was hours ago,’’ Daisy’s voice sounded unrecognizable to her ears. As he brought the glass of water to her mouth, she let him do it.
Ryle’s lips curved up. It was rare to see her being so docile and off-guard. After she was done, he downed the remaining water and placed the empty glass aside.
"Open the windows,’’ Daisy cleared her throat as he looked at her intently.
’’Hmm? Why?"
’’It reeks of all that we have done here,’’ she rolled her eyes as he smirked and proceeded to open the windows, ’’The head chef will have a breakdown if he knows what we have done to his holy site.’’
’’You still have the time to care about other men? It seems like I did not do well enough..’’ Ryle walked back to her after opening the windows and carried her up.
’’Ryle!" Daisy stiffened, alarmed, ’’I... am sore,’’ she said after hesitating for a brief moment.
To Daisy, it could not be any more obvious that she was well-trained in martial arts and her strength was already rather commendable. But this man had a surplus of energy and it put her stamina to shame when compared to his. Once unleashed, he turned into a brute as if he could endlessly go at it without being tired.
