Chapter 165: Chapter 165

Amelia could not remember how she came to be pressed against the chair with Killian loaming over her. Her once neat hair was now messy thanks to his fingers skillfully running through it, tugging and releasing it to get her riled up.

She felt his weight on top of her but it wasn’t enough to squash her. Amelia was reminded of how large and muscular he was in this position. Her hands had found their way to the back of his neck to press him down against her as their lips continued to move against each other.

"Ah!" She gasped the exact moment Killian’s right hand, which was just in her hair a moment ago, settled on her breast and gave it a gentle squeeze.

Her reaction excited Killian who viewed it as an all-clear for him to leave his hand there. He continued to palm her breast a second more, waiting for any more objections and when there weren’t any he twisted her hardened with his fingers which brought out another sweet sound from her.

"Shit," Amelia released a word her grandmother would hit her over the head for saying. She squeezed her legs shut to get rid of the sensation she felt there.

She felt Killian bite her bottom lip before ending their heated kiss to start trailing kisses to her neck where he remained. "Ow," she winced after he bit her neck but then his tongue licked the spot.

"If I had known such a woman was in the Blackwell kingdom, I would have come for you sooner," Amelia heard Killian’s mumbled words against her skin.

"Who is to say I would be here with you now if we met each other earlier? We would have never met outside my carriage and I would have never intrigued you. You might have killed me if the lie played out any differently," Amelia replied.

Killian squeezed her breast once more, enjoying the fullness in the palm of his hand before trailing down further. He pushed his hand under her dress and smoothly ran it up her thigh.

"Killian-"

"I know," he cut in, already knowing what she was going to say. "I won’t do anything more before our wedding. I was only getting a feel of you. You sure have a wonderful way to convince me how comfortable you are," he said, lifting his upper body to get a better look at her.

Her plump lips thanks to him biting them and the force of his kiss along with her chest rising and falling as if she had just got running around tempted him. Amelia brought more excitement to the hardness in his pants when she bit her lip.

"You are looking at me as if you are changing your mind about waiting until after the marriage, princess. We will stop here before you find yourself writhing under me. It is time for bed," he said then pulled her up. Killian kept one hand behind her back to keep her up.

Amelia sat silently, thinking of what she just did with Killian. They only did a bit more than kissing but it was enough to make her crave his touch more. Outside of her romance books, she didn’t think it would be possible for her to lust after a man the way she wanted Killian.

It was all scary to her. She was starting to have more feelings for him. Not only feelings because she wanted to be intimate with him but his kindness and the way he cared for her had opened up her heart. Trusting others was always hard for her and now that she was trusting Killian more than anything else she feared having her heart broken.

"Amelia," Killian said to snap her out of whatever she was overthinking. "Did I scare you?"

Amelia looked at Killian who seemed genuinely concerned he had done something wrong. Scare her? He made her want to forget about tradition and pounce on him to start making their heir.

"You scared me but not the way you think. I feel like I am a different person around you. I melt from your touch and I feel vulnerable around you. I might be falling hard for you and I fear getting my heart broken one day," said Amelia.

"I don’t plan on breaking your heart, Amelia. If you give all of your love to me, you will not regret it. You are not the only one that feels vulnerable here. You are the first person I have become close to in years, be it a man or woman. Alastor does not count."

Amelia hadn’t considered this would all be new to Killian just as it was for her. He seemed to be someone who likes to be alone but he welcomed her into his space. From the way he touched her a moment ago, his feelings were far past being intrigued by her. Just like her, Killian was starting to love her. Maybe he fell for her at first sight but he hadn’t realized what it was he felt.

"Then I should try my best to not break your heart. If you have one," Amelia added because of the many times Alastor spoke of Killian not having a heart. He spoke of it so seriously each time that she started to believe Killian didn’t have a heart.

Amelia felt around his exposed chest to feel for where his heart was.

"Amelia," Killian said, holding her hand to stop her. "I’ve just started to calm down, do not tempt me. You are forgetting that I am a demon. Our need to have sex is much greater than your own. I suggest you stop searching for the heart that I do have."

"Sorry," she apologized. "Is it hard for you to be close to me?"

"Very," Killian replied but he was referring to something else. "Hearing you speak is enough to make me want you. Time for bed," he said again. This time he lifted Amelia to take her to the bed to end this moment.
