The Knight's Mysterious Maid-Chapter 451: First to crack (4)
Chapter 451: First to crack (4)
Rafael left Annalise alone and didn’t purposely do anything to distract her so she could eat. He joined her in eating most of the food they brought, but they could not finish what Phillip had packed for them.
While Annalise went to wash her hands, Rafael packed away everything that wouldn’t spoil by morning so they could use it as breakfast and not need to go to her parent’s house early in the morning. He then got rid of what would spoil and put aside the empty plates to wash later.
Rafael was now in search of Annalise who had gone to the second floor alone. He knew that she had to be up to something. Finding a way to seduce him. He welcomed it as he could never hate the woman he loved trying to lure him to bed. freeweɓnovel.cøm
"Annalise," he called as he failed to find her.
"I am in the biggest room straight ahead of the stairs."
Rafael followed her voice to the room that would become their bedroom. It had the most space to hold both of their belongings. He hoped that she wasn’t already getting any idea about where she would put her spider.
Secretly, he was enjoying that Herbert was nowhere in sight. He had yet to figure out where Annalise had put the kitten.
Rafael entered the bedroom and found Annalise looking out the windows. There was nothing to cover them so anyone in the homes nearby could see right in. Thankfully, up here was dark so someone would need to strain their eyes to see him and Annalise.
"The home was well taken care of though no one lived here. Others missed out by not buying this house before you showed up," Annalise said, turning from the window from Rafael.
Just as it was hard to digest she was engaged, it was also hard to get used to the fact they now shared a house. When Rafael had instructed everyone to address her as the lady of the manor, she had still thought of it as his home. This was a bit different. Right away she saw this as their home.
Annalise stared at Rafael, enjoying the sight of him instead of forcing herself to look away. The darkness couldn’t hide how good-looking he was.
"Forget it," she muttered, walking up to Rafael.
He had spent a lot of time getting the ring, putting together a space for the proposal, and even thought of buying them a house. Annalise wanted to kick herself for not kissing him already. Just this once she could admit defeat over this challenge and be the one who gave in.
With a man like Rafael around, how was she to stay strong and not want to touch him?
Annalise immediately tiptoed and placed her left hand at the back of his head to bring him down to her while her right hand went to his chest to feel him. She felt relieved now that she could finally do what was on her mind.
She was certain her body trembled for a moment as a tingly feeling came over her. All her sexual frustration went away as they kissed and her hand roamed his body. She paid no attention to the fact there were no curtains to stop anyone at this level from seeing them.
If word about what they did spread around, she wouldn’t care about it as she was bound to have a better night than most.
Annalise bit Rafael’s lip as payback for all that he did tonight. She continued to think that he was not innocent like everyone believed him to be. However, Annalise would gladly enjoy being the only one to see this devious side of him.
Rafael relished in Annalise being the one to stop their game and kiss him. He didn’t care to mention that he had won as he continued to believe that there were no losers tonight.
"I know you wish to say it," Annalise said in between the heated kiss when she could. "That...you won. I don’t mind."
"Now is not the time to be thinking of winners," Rafael said, looking down to find the first of the three buttons for the shirt Annalise wore. She didn’t need the shirt from this moment until morning.
"Had I known we would be stripping away our clothes to do this, I would have worn a dress that would be easily taken off," Annalise said, placing her hands on Rafael’s shoulder as he was busy undoing her buttons.
Rafael didn’t mind that she had worn a shirt and pants which couldn’t be taken off in one go. He enjoyed getting her undressed and slowly welcoming the sight of her body. It was a treat to him. They had all night long together so he would go slow. There was no fun in rushing.
Annalise kept her eyes on Rafael as he went painfully slow with getting rid of her shirt. He moved as slowly as he could with her buttons, letting his fingers slip inside her shirt to touch her skin. Though their pace had changed after the kiss, her desire to have him had not decreased. It grew the more he touched her.
"Cold?" Rafael asked. He had not started a fire up here in the fireplace since they were using the one downstairs so the room was cold because one of the windows was slightly open to let the breeze come into the room.
Annalise was a bit cold but she shook her head to lie to him. She could handle this much so they wouldn’t need to stop and go back downstairs. Once their bodies were tangled with each other, she wouldn’t be cold anymore. Rafael was still like a walking fire so he would warm her up.
Rafael reached the last of her buttons, pushing the shirt off her shoulders and down her arms to let it drop to the floor. He didn’t waste a second as he went straight for the button on the pants that she wore.
Some wouldn’t enjoy seeing a woman walking around in pants which were originally made for a man and were tailored to fit her, but Rafael quite enjoyed how Annalise looked in pants. It might be the fact that she was a bit more confident in pants as opposed to getting frustrated many times over her dress keeping her back.
The next time he returned to the border, he would come with pants for Annalsie to wear daily along with a few dresses because he still enjoyed seeing when she got all dolled up. Each side of her was beautiful.
"Are you still on your plan to torture me? I have never seen anyone be so slow with taking off pants," Annalise said, feeling her pants slip down her legs at the same time. "What timing could you have. Allow me to return the favour," Annalise said, helping him to take off his pants.
She chuckled as she looked down. "How did I miss the state you are in? I could have used this to my advantage and won. What a pity."
"Too late for that," Rafael replied, stepping out of his fallen pants and lifting Annalise.
