Kiss Me Not

Cedric kept on twisting and turning on his bed. He could not sleep at all so he got up from his bed and grabbed a bottle of whiskey from his bar. He needed a shot to knock him down to sleep or else he would be frustrated the whole night.

He was about to gulp his shot when his doorbell rang and he almost tripped as he rushed towards his door seeing Brione standing outside in the intercom video.

"Bri?" he whispered as soon as he opened the door.

Brione trod inside his suite without saying a word and walked straight into his living room. There she saw the open bottle and the filled glass, so she quickly held the glass to drink it down but Cedric grabbed her wrist and stopped her.

"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you here? And don't drink that! It's not for you!" he said as he tried to take the glass away from her hand but Brione immediately drank the shot in one gulp. She coughed immediately as the hard liquor went down her neck and curled her mouth with the bitter taste. But she needed more alcohol to get some courage before starting what she was about to do. Good thing Cedric had it ready there that instant.

She was about to pour another drink into the glass but Cedric stopped her.

"What are you doing Bri?" he asked with a furrowed brow.

"Drinking, what else!?" Brione vented out.

Frowning, Gavin barked, "You came here to drink?!"

"The result is out and your DNA does not match with uncle Damiel… Are you happy now, P.R.I.N.C.E?" She said putting stress on each syllable and then let out a bitter laugh, tears rolling down her eyes. She wiped her tears and sat straight looking deep into his eyes.

"Do you really think I will stop at this?" Brione whispered and her eyes started welling up again as a wave of emotions clouded her heart.

Cedric could feel her pain and his heart broke seeing her so devastated. How he suddenly hoped and wished at that moment that she was in the right so she no longer had to experience the heartache and live with the pain that he could clearly see in her amber eyes.

"I really don't know what to do Brione. I don't wanna lose you and I'm willing to be Gavin's shadow if that will be all it takes to keep you by my side always!" Cedric whispered. He no longer cared about anything else, not even his hope for Brione to look at him as who he was, as long as she would not run away from him!

"I'm willing to do anything to keep you with me," Cedric confessed.

"Kiss me," Brione whispered, almost a gasp.

Cedric's heart stopped beating for a moment and he thought he had imagined something, he blinked before asking, "I'm sorry?"

Brione tilted her head up and met his confused gaze. She stared at his eyes closely and said, "Kiss me."

Cedric was caught off guard as the words rang in his ear.

'Kiss me...'

Those words were like music to Cedric's ears but was Brione already drunk with just one shot of whiskey for her to ask him that when she clearly said that she had a kissing phobia?

"Why are you not moving? Am I going to die if you kiss me?" Brione challenged.

Cedric found it so seductive that he started breathing erratically.

"If I kiss you, you will not die but there is no guarantee that I will stop with just one kiss…" Cedric warned with a seductive smile.

Brione gulped, feeling the dryness of her throat so she quickly grabbed the bottle of whiskey and drank quite a lot from it before Cedric could even pull it away from her.

Cedric felt really confused thinking what was going on with Brione and why would she suddenly ask him to kiss her.

Could it be because she wanted to compare his kiss with Gavin but she has a phobia of kissing unless…

"You…" Before Cedric could start complaining, he was stunned and left dumbfounded when Brione suddenly snaked her arms around his neck and whispered, "so are you going to kiss me or not?"

He could smell the whiskey in her breath.

Her face was too close and Cedric was already drowning with the great sensation that Brione's closeness was bringing throughout every cell of his body. He was so close into snapping out and crushing his lips into hers but he was not sure if Brione was in her right mind at that moment. He wanted their first kiss to be something she could remember where her mind was clear and not clouded with frustrations.

"I will bring you back to me," Brione whispered in Cedric's lips as she moved her lips closer and finally landed onto Cedric's soft lips.

She was dazed as she closed her eyes and tears dropped down on her cheeks. She knew that she was never wrong. She had finally found him...!!

Cedric's eyes widened on the other hand. He froze right there but he quickly regained his senses back and devoured the softness of the lips pressed against his. He moved his lips as it sought out for more than being pressed by Brione's lips.

He began sucking Brione's lips gently like it was some delicate dessert as he enjoyed its sweetness. He sucked her upper and lower lips alternately and he was not satiated so he slipped his tongue inside her mouth to get more sweets inside like how a bee was sucking nectar from a fragrant flower.

He was consumed with the passion that each of them was sharing. Brione was answering his hungry lips with the same intensity with their tongues fencing together and intertwining, tasting each other's sweetness.

She was too delicious for him to let go easily so he wrapped his arms tightly on her waist, pulling her against him. He moaned when he felt his soft bosoms pressed against his chest. She was wearing her thin nightgown with a thin robe beneath. She was not wearing any bra and this made him feel the softness of her full bosoms against his hard chest.

He did not want this to stop at all but he knew he must initiate to stop or else he was afraid that he would end up taking her right then and there because his other hand on her nape was already itching to roam around and touch every part of her sumptuous body.

He did not want to take advantage of her current vulnerable state. Though he wanted to do a lot more things to her, but not tonight!

He gently broke free from the kiss and whispered with a tease, "I told you I won't stop with just one kiss so expect me to kiss you often from this day onwards!"
