Chapter 203

Cassie

The force of his kiss burned through me. There was so much feeling in it, so much passion that any thought of Megan and his relationship evaporated out of my mind.

My body curved into him, throwing my arms around his neck. I reached up on tiptoes and opened my lips to him. My tongue tangled with his. Our breaths mingled.

Kicking the door shut behind us, Julian's lips never left mine as he walked us towards the bed. Turning us about he gave a little shove. So I went sprawling into the mattress.

He didn't follow me down. Instead he just stood there and stared down at me. "I love you Cassie. You are my mate. It's time to start believing me."

My heart skipped a beat. He hadn't said wife or queen. He had said mate. He had said something like that before and then quickly amended it. Yet here he was now, saying it out loud and proud.

"Julian." I began to say but stopped when he caught my left ankle and swung it over his shoulder. Pressing a kiss there he turned his attention back to me.

"You are my mate. My fated mate and I love you." More kisses. "You feel it as well don't you?"

"Yes." I couldn't take my eyes off him. I had never seen him look so desperate or so earnest.

"That first day in the hospital, when I didn't know it was you. I felt it snap into place and then my mind got all jumbled. I was a pig, Cassie. A blind bullying pig but I'm not the same man anymore. I am not blind." He took a deep breath. "And I see you. I see you as the strong beautiful woman you are. Not as just my queen or as a mother but as a woman. If you want to go back to practising medicine then that's fine with me. You are too talented to keep you to myself and if you aren't ready, then that's fine as well. But one thing I want to make clear is that your happiness is important to me. I am going to make everything up to you. Starting now."

Dropping my leg, he pushed my knees up. He hooked his hands in my pjs and slid them off my legs. My top was tugged from my head and tossed away.

I fell back on the mattress. Breathing heaving as he raked his eyes all over me.

"You are the most beautiful woman in the world. The idea of me not wanting you is absurd." Using both his hands he parted my legs. Baring my pussy to him. "Beautiful." He whispered.

Pushing down his pants, he stepped out of them and knelt on the bed between my legs. "Your mine Cassie. You belong to me. And I'm going to prove it to you."

Reaching out he pressed his thumb to my clit and circled it. My back arched off the bed as a million feelings swirled over me. Julian's eyes never left my pussy which I knew was dripping for him. I could feel it seeping out of my body.

"Tell me your mine." He growled out an order. Pressing down even harder. I scrambled for his hand. Trying to get him to continue but he just withdrew his hand.

I fell back defeated, he had got me so close again and again he was going to leave because that's what he did. He made me want to believe his words and then left me heartbroken. I didn't know how much more I could take.

I turned my head away. Closing my legs.

"Oh no you don't." Spreading my knees he fell on top of me. "You don't get to look away from me. I want your eyes on me when I first enter you. I want to see your expression." Reaching between our bodies I felt him press against me. Only it wasn't him, not bare anyway. He had moved away to put a condom on.

"Protection?"

"Because you don't want another baby yet do you?" His eyes searched my face as he teased at my entrance. "Unless you do. Just say the word and I'll be bare inside of you and filling you with my seed." He arched an eyebrow  and I shook my head.

"There you are then." Catching hold of my wrists he forced them down and plunged into me. So hard and fast that my body tensed at the sudden intrusion.

"God I've missed the feel of your body around mine." Lifting both of my ankles over his shoulders he stared down at where our bodies were coming together. "Of watching you tighten around me." He ground out, "I've missed-"

His words didn't make sense to me, there was no meaning to them. There was only the feel of his thick cock spreading me open and filling me and the mounting tightening pleasure that pulsed through my body.

"I love you." I blurted before I could stop myself.

For a moment his pace slowed. He stared down at me like he coolant quite believe that I had just said that and then he fell on me. Catching me up in his arms , he plowed into me.

Wrapping my legs around his waist I met each of his strokes with his body.

"I love you too, but I can't do this." Retreating he ripped the condom from his body and threw it away. Sliding into me again with one long thrust.

"I don't want anything to come between us. Not ever again." Arms on either side of my head, he kissed me slowly. In time with his thrusts and I was powerless to do anything but cling to him.

Cling to him and love him.

"Please don't hurt me again."

I didn't know what made me say it but I couldn't take the words back.

Julian growled. Catching my face between his hands he stared down at me. His movements slow and jerky. "I'll never hurt you again Cassie. I love you."

Closing my eyes I nodded. I believed him.

"I mean-"

Surging upwards I silenced him with a kiss. "No more talking Julian. Make love to me. Make me yours again."
