Caroline’s POV
We stepped into Ryan’s guest room. The door closed, and Draven immediately pulled me into his arms, holding me so tightly I could barely breathe—but I didn’t mind.
He pulled back slightly to look into my eyes.
"My love,I’ve missed you so much," he whispered.
I couldn’t control myself, standing on tiptoe to kiss his lips. How I missed him! I sighed when I broke the kiss and looked into his violet eyes.
"What am I going to do with you?" It was more of a rhetorical question. Inside,I was torn between throwing myself into his arms and keeping some distance after everything we’d been through.
"You know I’m yours. And you know you’re mine. How long are we going to keep suffering? It’s your decision, my love. But I won’t give up on you," he whispered these words in my ear and kissed behind my earlobe, making me shiver all over.
"I can get down on my knees, I can crawl if you prefer, I’ll do anything you want to make you understand how sorry I am for being such a jerk and how much I regret it. I love you, Caroline. I messed everything up, but I want you back, and I won’t give up."
Draven held me as we sat on the bed. I looked into his eyes, and it was impossible to resist. He was truly sorry and suffering, just like me. I placed my hands on his face and pulled him closer, closed my eyes and breathed in his delicious cedarwood and musky scent. It was captivating, warm and seductive.
Draven didn’t move or pull me in for a kiss. He just let me decide what I wanted. That was even more powerful than kissing me. I couldn’t let him go.
I pressed my lips to his, feeling their warmth as our mouths met. I ran my tongue over his lips, tasting him. He gasped and I slipped my tongue into his mouth. I pulled at his hair and deepened our kiss. He kissed me back passionately but kept his hands still, letting me control the pace. The more I kissed him, the more I knew I belonged here. Our tongues moved together, hot and needy. This kiss said everything we couldn’t put into words.
My body was on fire and yearning for his touch, but he wouldn’t touch me. So as I kissed him, I sat sideways on his lap and wrapped my arms around his neck, letting him know I was his and couldn’t bear to stay away any longer. Only then did he wrap his arms around me, one hand on my neck, deepening our kiss even further.
When we pulled apart, we were completely breathless, but I couldn’t stop gazing into his eyes. They were shining like two violet beacons. I couldn’t live without him anymore.
"I guess this means you’ve forgiven me," he said with that dazzling smile that fascinated me. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
"This means I can’t live without you, that I will forgive you, but you still have some explaining to do. Starting with Liz," I said, trying to keep my voice steady despite the jealousy that flared up at the mention of her name.
