DELILAHThe next morning I was excited. I was happy. Too much. Only because I was going to have a ride with him. He was going to drop me off at the campus. I was happy because I could see him. I could greet him and probably bathe in his manly fragrance which always envelopes me. I was helplessly falling for his fragrance, too. Dad noticed my happiness. He grinned, watching me hopping downstairs like an excited kid on his first day at school. Well, not all students are happy on the first day of school and I was not one of them. I enjoyed my first day. "Wow, you're so happy… what's the reason, Del?" He asked as I approached him. I grabbed the strap of my knapsack and pulled it slightly, passing him my toothy grin."Just like that." I shrugged, fighting back the huge grin trying to spread on my lips. I was already smiling like crazy. I could not afford to earn his suspicion. "It's probably because of the magic of the sweet fragrance of my strawberry scent hair shampoo. You can smell i
DELILAHI came out of the building and I was surprised to find him at the main gate, standing near his car. His hands stuffed into the pockets of his trousers and his eyes were set in my direction. When I noticed him there, I could not take my eyes off him again. I was stuck. There was something so magnetizing about his appearance that it demanded hundred percent of my attention. Once I would look at him, I could look away at all. He was the man of my dreams. The girls around me gasped, watching that handsome man from far away. The handsomeness he possessed was kind of rare. His emerald eyes were the most beautiful feature of his. Their darkness was mysterious and they attracted the hell out of everyone. Not just me, but the girls on my campus also got lost in admiring him. Some of them were whispering into each other, wondering who the man belonged to. The boys were jealous. I sighed, not minding what girls whispered about him. Of course, they were drooling over him. Even if he w
DELILAHMy eyes slightly widened as I stared at him. His eyes were closed, and his lips were locked — with mine. His scent engulfed me and soothed my nerves. My heart has already skipped a few beats. And the moment he softly sucked my bottom lip, I gained my senses back and my eyes shut down, my soul asking me to enjoy the moment. It felt beautiful because I was sharing my first kiss with the man I dearly loved. His hand came to cup my cheek. He tilted his head and licked my lips, spreading our mixed salivas upon the flesh and then sucking it once again softly. He was so gentle, so tender with me like a slight force applied by him would break me. His lips were soft, just like the snow on the fourth of December. His touch was warm against my cheek which was burning hot due to my shyness. I could not believe he was kissing me. It felt wonderful. My nerves were at peace, my soul as if smiling inside. I was never treated this way — with such tenderness. I could never forget that day —
DELILAHDad was not home. He was out for his work. I went to Nathaniel's house who was Nicholas for me at that time. As he invited me. It was Sunday and I had no classes but dad had a meeting to attend. He worked as a manager in that work area. So it was urgent for him to be there. Standing outside his house, I inhaled deeply. I was a bit nervous. I just wanted to look good before him. I knew it was just a simple meeting so I wore a red sundress with white boxes on it as patterns. My hair was open as he liked me. Still, I was anticipating that he would not like my dressing style. Well, he never questioned. He just praised me. I pressed his doorbell ring and waited for a moment. He opened the door and I smiled at him. He was wearing a blue t-shirt with a pair of grey sweatpants. His biceps got my attention as the t-shirt hugged his torso perfectly, and loosened around his waist. His hair was a bit ruffled up and there was a smile on his lips. A smile of admiration. "Is it done scann
DELILAH"Wow, that was awesome! You're amazing, Del!" It was Reed, uttering in my ear, walking beside me and trying to catch my speed but I could tell it was hard for him. "I know, Reed, you've told me already enough! Stop yelling in the corridor for your own sake!" He laughed when he heard me but I could only roll my eyes at him. He was so clingy. Always. Reed Scott was a guy on my campus who had a crush on me and I knew about it because his actions spoke louder than his mouth. He knew that not only me but the whole campus knew about his huge crush on me but still he never tried to hide it. He made sure to let everybody know that he was trying hard on me but unfortunately I was interested in somebody else. Reed was good-looking. He was charming. He had a nice physique, too, and he was grateful to football for this. That was the reason that most of the girls on my campus were head over heels for him and because he was chasing after me, they were jealous of me as well. At first, I
DELILAHThe second time I saw his jealousy, I started trembling with fear. It was the first time I saw him like this. That form of his was very different. It felt as if someone else was standing in front of me, not my Nicholas. And I feared that side of him the most. It was nighttime. Like every time we both went out to spend time with each other. He wanted to take me with him to some club. I did not deny him because I liked being with him anywhere. It was never my habit to complain to him. We had a lot of fun there that night. Nicholas was not unfamiliar with such a place. Maybe he used to come to such places often but I came to such a place for the first time because I trusted in him, and I thought it right to drink liquor with him. He did not complain about it. But he found it amusing, I could tell it by his facial expressions. It was my first time, so I felt the effect very quickly, but he put his hand forward with the idea of handling me without grumbling. He was always pati
Give a chance to my another book "Beta Nicholas" too. It's a werewolf romance. ———————————DELILAHWe had been together for two years and I was both surprised and happy that I had completed two years with him. The surprise was because Nathaniel's temper was very delicate. He had temper issues and I understood that. He used to get angry at trivial matters but I knew how to tame him at that time. It was quite easy for me. No one could even see me, that is what he wanted, after all. His possessive behavior used to scare me sometimes. I never considered Nathaniel to be weak in mind who would be so insecure sometimes but whenever he used to stare at someone because of that he tried to look at me, I tried my best to make him understand because I would never want him to be involved in some fight and then face the consequences which could be dangerous like the matters to the police. It never happened that he had to answer the police. Those whom he beat must have filed a complaint, but the
DELILAH"M-Marry you?" I whisper, looking at him with my widened eyes, while pushing myself back so that I can avoid our proximity. He is too close to me and we are practically sharing the air to breathe. "Yes, Del, marry me and I'll let your father live," he says, his deep voice as if vibrating my whole entity. He stays like that, close to me and I look at him with anticipation. This is not what I want though. I do not think we are good enough for each other. Besides, he is not a simple citizen. He is not normal like us. He is a Mafia prince. I swallow hard, impatience touching its elevation inside me. I begin twitching due to uncertainty, and nervousness crawling up above me like wicked bugs. "Speak, Del." I did not even realize until now that I was frozen in my position. So much panic was rippling inside me, and he made sure of it. I knew he knew about that, too. He wanted to impose fear inside me from the advent. "Nathaniel," the sense of his name on my tongue, perceives so u
