Chapter 481: Young night

Noah again licked his lips and sat on his chair while Aria was still frozen in her place. Her mind had short-circuited the moment Noah had kissed her and had stolen her cake right from her mouth. Her lips felt numb, and her brain was in a mush. Though they had shared kisses before too that ranged from being passionate and deep to gentle and slow, this was the first time Aria felt herself lose control. The man completely dominated her body, mind, and soul in just one kiss.

Aria touched her lips, and a smile made its way on her lips. She was now blushing furiously, her cheeks blotched pink. Noah had been observing her, and the moment she touched her lips, a fire ignited in him. Her reddened cheeks and glazed eyes only added more to his desires. All Noah wanted to do was take her to bed and have his way with her.

But he controlled himself, for he was still not sure if Aria was ready for him or not. The girl was giving him mixed signals that confused him more. At times, she would lose herself and succumb to him, allowing him to do as he pleased, just like the kiss they had shared now. There were some rare instances where Aria herself would initiate a kiss, forcing him to allow her to dominate him and Noah would gladly relent to her wishes. But there were also times when Aria would run away from him. 

Noah was confused, and he did not know if he were to take the last step or not. Judging Aria's reaction, it at least confirmed that she did not hate whatever he did to her. 'Let me take a level up. After that one instance, we have not indulged in anything sexual. Let me try something today if Aria is willing to." Noah thought to himself and looked at the girl again.

An idea popped up in his mind, and he smirked evilly at the girl who had no idea what was awaiting her. Aria was still in a daze when Noah gently wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her to him. She stumbled on her feet and landed on his lap. Aria's first instinct was to move away from him. But Noah held her in her place, not allowing her to even protest.

"Noah," Aria stared at the man, flustered.

"Hmm?" He mused, gazing at her as he brushed her cheeks with his finger.

"What are you doing?"

"What am I doing, darling?" Noah twisted her question and threw it back to her.

"Let me go." Aria tried to get up again. But his hold on her was firm, she could not even move.

"And where do you want to go?" His other hand was wrapped around her waist, and Aria was feeling tingles as he ran his fingers lightly along her waist. She was now hot and flustered, and she wanted to get away from him before the man found out her disposition.

"We have to eat our dinner." She racked her brain for an answer, and she found one for her relief.

"We can eat like this. Don't worry." The man's reply was instant, and Aria was lost. She did not know how to come out of the predicament he was in.

Without waiting for Aria's response, Noah opened the packets and opened the boxes in them. He did not waste another moment to place the food on his plate. When Noah was busy pouring the carbonara on his plate, Aria tried to get up. But Noah was quick to stop her, and he raised an eyebrow at her. "What are you doing, darling?"

"Noah, don't you think it would be easier if we were to eat separately?" 

"We are eating separately, dear. It is not like I can eat for you and me. Right?"

Aria rolled her eyes at his ridiculous attempt to crack a joke. She glared at him, and Noah just chuckled at her cute face. He picked another packet and retrieved a box of ravioli from it. 

"Noah, what I meant was that we eat on separate seats, not like this..." Aria pointed back her forth, stumbling on her words, and Noah stifled a laugh after seeing her trying so hard to move away from him.

"I like the position we are in. I like the closeness." Noah answered shamelessly, without batting an eyelid. Aria's jaw dropped, and at once, she tried to wriggle away as far as possible from him. Wrong move.

Noah's grasp tightened, and he gritted his teeth. Aria's innocent move was making him lose control, and he was just short of devouring her whole. Aria did not see the changes in Noah as she continued to move, pressing on a particular place that was slowly getting excited. 

"Aria," Noah hissed, and this time, the girl felt the danger she was in. She met Noah in the eye and was shocked to see his darkened eyes. There was an obvious desire in them, and at once, Aria stopped moving. She did not want to take the risk, not when Noah had all the intentions to eat her alive.  Noah took deep breaths to calm himself down, his grasp on her not loosening even a bit. 

"Noah, please let me go," Aria begged, hoping that the man would let her go. However, it was all her wishful thinking. Noah had no intentions to let her go.

"No, Aria. We will stay this way." Even though it was agonizing for him, he did not want her to be far away from him. He was liking her body pressing against him.

Aria now had no idea how to refute him. So, she gave up and moved again to find a comfortable position. But stopped the moment Noah hissed lightly. 'I should not provoke the man further. I don't know what he will do to me. I should stay still.' Aria decided and waited until the man was back to normal.

"Shall we eat, darling?" Noah picked up the forks and handed her one. Although he wanted to feed her, or even better Aria fed him, he decided to let the poor girl. She was more than flustered, and he did not want to scare her more.

However, nothing as Noah intended to do happened, and this was not the end of Aria's problems. The night was still young, especially for this couple, and they realized it when they started eating.
