Chapter 19: If only...

Chapter 19: If only...

The room was silent for a while as their eyes remained locked and Damon patiently waited for Alexander to say something.

Alexander inhaled sharply.

This was it. He was going to tell Damon that he wanted him and even though he was a bit nervous, Alexander was certain that this was what he wanted.

His lips parted slightly to say the words on his mind.

"I want you, Damon." He admitted and Damon’s lips curled up into a bright smile as he placed his hand on his nape and pulled him closer.

"You have absolutely no idea how long I have waited to hear you say those words." Damon admitted before their lips met in a soft and sensual kiss that made both of them shiver slightly from the feverish passion that coursed through their veins at the kiss.

Alexander’s hands found their way to the back of his head and tangled his thick silver hair, pulling him closer like he wasn’t close enough.

Oh yes...he had missed this and he felt like he could kiss this man forever.

Alexander shamelessly deepened their kiss, devouring his mouth with a heated and sensual passion that had Damon moan softly in approval.

If only he wasn’t injured...

Damon thought as they pulled away, their eyes hazy and their breaths coming out in soft shallow puffs.

Alexander let his forehead gently rest against Damon’s as his mind registered what had happened between them.

This time he was sober and he had liked kissing this man.

A smile adorned his lips as he leaned in and placed a brief kiss on Damon’s lips.

"You taste delicious." He breathed and Damon’s cheeks flushed at the confession.

"Alexander being sweet and cheesy. That’s new." Damon whispered and Alexander kissed him again.

"You are the one that has made me this way." Alexander admitted, feigning a painful smile.

"If only you weren’t injured then we could..." Damon admitted his thoughts and Alexander’s cheeks burned.

This man was making him blush.

"If only..." he repeated teasingly and Damon’s hands found their way to Alexander’s abdomen, his hand landing just above his navel as he leaned in, his cheek brushing against Alexander’s.

Alexander shuddered at the familiar touch, losing his ability to breathe steadily as Damon started a slow upward trail up his chest.

"I cannot wait to have you..." Came that low seductive voice beside Alexander’s ear.

He shivered as his hands daringly found their way towards Damon’s waist, pulling him and rolling him over so that he was laying on the bed, beneath him.

"That feeling is mutual." Alexander admitted as he leaned in and kissed his neck.

Damon groaned softly as his eyes met those of the man that was looming over him, glad to see his desire reflected back at him.

His stomach rumbled slightly from hunger and the action snapped both of them from their daze.

"You are hungry." Alexander stated the obvious and Damon blushed, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I have not eaten dinner yet. I was working late with the builders that are doing the castle repairs." Damon blurted out and Alexander chuckled at how cute he looked when he was totally flustered.

"What’s funny?" Damon asked, slightly irritated.

"Nothing, the color red suits you. I happen to like it when you blush." Alexander voiced his thoughts and the blush that covered Damon’s cheeks deepened.

"You..." Was all he managed to murmur as he made his way off the bed.

"Have you eaten?" Damon asked as he smoothed out the invisible wrinkles in his shirt and run a hand through his hair that had loosened from it confines.

Alexander watched him, mesmerized at how good this prince looked with his hair messy.

"Yes. I ate a little hours earlier." Alexander admitted and Damon did not look pleased at his response.

"A little?" He asked and Alexander grimaced slightly.

"I didn’t really have an appetite." He admitted.

"You should eat more, you need the energy to heal." Damon pointed out and Alexander kept quiet because he knew the man had a point.

"I will have someone bring us some food." Damon added as he walked towards the door.

"You are going to eat from here?" Alexander asked, finding it a little strange.

"You don’t want me to?" Damon asked and Alexander blushed.

"I do but..."

Damon cut him off.

"Then it’s sorted and besides, I need to watch over you and make sure you eat enough food." Damon said, his voice final as he turned the door knob and left.

Alexander couldn’t help feeling like he was being pampered and he was quite enjoying Damon taking care of him. He couldn’t complain.

Damon returned minutes later with two maids that were carrying trays following closely behind.

After they had set up everything, Damon thanked them and proceeded to sit down besides Alexander.

Once the maids had left, Damon picked up his cutlery and started to dine, glancing at Alexander every after a few mouthfuls to see if he was eating.

Alexander looked at the nicely arranged plate of Irish, chicken and a few vegetables but his appetite still quite low.

Knowing that it could please Damon, he ate as much as he could and at the end of the meal, he had cleared more than half way his plate.

"Alexander, you should eat the veggies too." Damon said as he looked at the untouched vegetable section of his plate.

Alexander glared at the spinach leaves like they were his new found enemies.

"You should know that I don’t mind feeding you." Damon added, his voice as serious as he could make it.

Alexander’s cheeks flushed as he hurriedly picked up his fork and ate up the vegetables.

Damon smiled as he watched him. This man’s actions never seized to amuse him.

"See, that wasn’t so bad." Damon chuckled once he was done.

Alexander faintly glared at him as he swallowed down his last mouthful.

This prince surely knew how to make him act.

After the plates had been cleared, Damon locked the door behind him and looked at Alexander, his blue eyes intense from suppressed desire.

Alexander looked so alluring, seated in bed with his upper body exposed and that seemed to affect him as he walked over.

"I am going to sleep with you." He said and before Alexander could say anything, Damon jumped into the bed.

Alexander smiled faintly as he inched closer to him and cuddled him, his chest pressing against Damon’s back as his arms wrapped around him.

"Good night, Damon." He whispered beside his ear, earning a small shiver from Damon.

"Good night, Alexander." Damon replied, his voice low as he let himself savor the warmth of this man’s embrace.

Damon got lured into a deep slumber minutes later, his heart content at the fact that Alexander was finally his.
