Under His Protection

True to his word, the devil refused to kiss Laura on her lip again. He had already stated that he would not kiss her until the love Mark he put on her neck disappears, Michael was punishing her for the action she did not even do or maybe the act she was not aware of, Michael said that he got jealous when he saw her flirting with japhet infront of him, he had told her not to play with his jealousy again in the future.

Here she is now sitting on the kitchen counter top half naked like him wearing only his crio white shirt from yesterday, while he was only wearing his pant displaying his naked chat as she let him devour her for breakfast.

“Michael….” She mumbled, with her eyes shut while his skillful lip travelled on her neck, “…. We need to stop please”

Michael hot breath tickled her sensitive skin, ” why are you stopping me? Iam having my breakfast”

Laura tried so hard to stop the sensation of his sinful kisses around her body every time he deviously seduce her with his touch and addictive kisses, she could not think straight as her poor brain stopped functioning, ” you have your third one few hours ago”

“So?” He finally Drew back from his exploration and had the nerve to ask as if it was a nonsense reply, ” Laura you have no idea how long I had been dying to do this with you, do you think I will stop now that I finally have you?”

Laura finally had the chance to see his beautiful eyes, “Not that iam complaining but iam starting to get annoyed by this”

A friend mark in his eyebrows, ” Why?’

She hooked her arm around his neck, she tried to close the distance between their lips, the devilish glint was back in his eyes, ” oops!…. No more lip locking for now until the hickey I gave you fade”

“You are impossible!” Laura informed him irritably, ” why are you punishing me for the misconduct I didn’t commit?”

“Because I got jealous”

She stared at him in disbelief, ” that is it? You are putting this nonsense between us just Because you got jealous of japhet?”

Michael eyes narrowed and darkened in her direction instantly upon hearing the name of her friend, ” Don’t you spark of his name infront of me Laura, I don’t like to hear his name, that bastard! There is something about him that is shady”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Laura rolled her eyes at his assessment about japhet’s character, ” I think you are being bias about him, japhet is a good man and a true gentleman”

“That is why I don’t trust him dearest” Michael told her bluntly, but she could not miss the way his hand slowly travelled on her naked thigh, ” like I said he seems to be too good to be true, I think he has other personality that he doesn’t show yet”

Laura choose not to answer him about his evaluation concerning japhet, instead she focused her attention to the busy hand that now rested between her legs, ” what do you think you are doing mister”

“Seducing you” he said, unashamedly. Michael eyes were clouded with desire, he was about to test if she was already ready when he cursed himself, ” damn it! I forgot to bring condom with me”

It was her turn to smile smugly, ” karma finally catch you for punishing me unjustly Michael, how does it feel to get interrupted from your seduction because you forgot to bring condom with you?”

“Oh! I won’t be so sassy if I were you princess” he retorted playfully, ” I can just bring you back to bed where the protection is safely placed on your bedside drawer”

Heat rosed into her cheek, Laura knew that apart from the night at the estate Michael never missed using protection since their love making even when they are frantically ready, she never thought she would store boxes of condom in her room even if Michael was the one who bought them, still..

He even once taught her how to put that elastic rubber in his manhood, she wonder what her father would do if he sees those things I’m her drawer, he would probably wring her neck with his bare hands. She stopped Michael hand and gave him a Stern look, ” that is enough for now, I will be late for work if you continue to mess with my head, excuse me”

“No you are not excused yet” he muttered softly refusing her to get down from the countertop, ” we are just starting”

“No!” Laura refused him flatly, giving him an ultimatum, ” until you kiss me on the lip, there will be no love making for you”

“Not going to happen my princess” Michael eyes glinted as the sunlight crept through the window, ” on a serious note, what are your plans for today?”

She shrugged at his sudden questions, ” nothing important, just a day in my shop. I need to finish the costume that is due for next week, why did you ask?”

He eyed her seriously, ” can I leave you for a moment? I just need to finish some business but I will be back as soon as I can, I promise. Will you be okay if I leave you for few hours?”

Laura rolled her eyes at him, there he was again treating her like a child, ” of course I will be fine while you are away, maybe this is also a good opportunity to pay the lunch i owe japhet”

“Laura…” He warned.

She shook her head, ” No, iam being serious Michael, this might be my chance to tell him that iam not interested in pursuing any relationship with him other than friendship”

Trouble showed in his eyes, Laura knew he doesn’t want her to see japhet since he was not going to be around, ” But….”

“Trust me Michael, will you?” She looked up at his worried eyes, he was silent for a moment before he answered her, ” I trust you Laura, it is that man I don’t trust, you have to understand where iam coming from. There is something about that guy that I cannot pin point at the moment”

“I will be fine dear” she reassure him with an encouraging smile, ” it is just a harmless lunch with a good friend of mine”

“Male friend” Michael corrected.

She rolled her eyes, ” okay, male friend but I promise you I will be fine and will not do anything stupid to make you worry”

Michael sighed deeply, Laura knew he still doesn’t want her to go but he finally gave in after a moment, ” I promise to pick you up as soon as I can, once iam done with my work, you are required to give me an update of everything, are we clear?”

Laura beamed merrily, ” I promise Michael”

He slumped his head on her shoulder and let out a groan, ” I will die early if you continue to make me worry all the time, iam probably the only man on this planet who let his girlfriend see her other suitors for lunch date, do you think iam such an idiot?”

“His girlfriend” he said…….

Those simple words really warmed her heart, she could barely contain the emotion that filled her with those words he spoke so casually, it was as if he had been saying those words for quite sometime now. Laura cradle his face so could see his anxious eyes, ” you do just fine, you must know by now that you are the only man I want right? You don’t know how long I have waited for you to notice me”

He kissed her forehead softly, ” I took notice of you from the start, it is just that I don’t want you to realize that iam interested in you my darling, so I kept it to myself”

She smiled lovingly as she Drew his face towards hers, Laura planned to steal a kiss from the mouth that kissed every inch of her body last night except her lip, it was a nearly perfect executed plan until he looked sideways and her lip just graze on the side of his mouth.

“Stubborn man!” She said with annoyance in her voice.

” You nearly got me there minx” Michael admitted with a devilish smirk on his face, ” I need to raise my gaurd next time, you are one cunning lady. I have told you before I won’t kiss your lovely lip again until you beg”

“I will not beg”

He gave her a parting chuckle before leaving her alone in the kitchen, ” we shall see princess, we shall see”.
