While speaking, he continued caressing her cheek, never removing his deep, piercing eyes from hers and maintaining eye contact without faltering even once.
"He couldn't have done anything on his own, and that fact remains true to this day. He is still a dumb, low-class officer who puts his girlfriend as an afterthought over his detective obsession!" He seethed through gritted teeth and pulled her closer towards him, enjoying her presence while he could. "He can't be a proper lover to a magnificent woman like you, let alone a husband."
"Why... Why did you keep it a secret from me? You..." Victoria lowered her gaze, now filled with confusion and sadness, and then suddenly grabbed his shirt collar while glaring at him with moist eyes. "...you should have told me everything sooner!"
"Your family made me promise to keep quiet. They thought that if you knew about me having a role in your rescue, you would start paying more attention to me and fall for me instead. That's why." Richard explained with a gentle expression, wrapping his arms around her waist. "I gave in because, to be honest, I was a rich playboy who slept around with all kinds of beautiful women. And that wasn't going to change for you at that time."
"But didn't you say you weren't interested in meaningless flings anymore?" She raised her brows, demanding answers and pushing her head closer to his, making their faces just centimeters apart.
Richard paused for a few moments as he collected himself before speaking again.
"It was the day you told me that you had plans to introduce your boyfriend to me and others in our circle... that was when everything changed for me. Seeing you choose another man as your special someone drove me mad. It pained me and caused sleepless nights due to regret... regret that I lost you because of my stupidity and mistakes, regret that I didn't value you enough." He recalled the memories of those days spent wallowing in despair while running his hands gently through her hair.
"I admit it, I was a fucking asshole who never loved anyone and was always playing with girls without a second thought. I knew nothing about love and how it felt to lose something valuable until I saw you with him. Then, it was already too late... way too late."
"And a man like me doesn't deserve you, Victoria. But even so, even if I am not the one for you, that idiot Jason will never be worthy of a woman like you!" Richard declared while moving one of his hands onto her back, pulling her even closer. "You have a heart of gold! A compassionate soul! A keen mind for business! And a beautiful body that makes men weak in the knees!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Victoria grabbed his face and brought his lips down to meet hers in a sudden yet passionate kiss, making their breaths hot with desire.
While their tongues mingled together, they hugged each other tightly, with all their emotions welling up within them.
The sounds of their lips smacking against each other filled the air along with moans of pleasure, echoing throughout the night.
Victoria looked up at him, biting her bottom lip and giving him a coy yet sexy smile before whispering, "Do it."
Then, with the same lust-filled smirk, he pushed forward and thrust his hips, making a loud, pleasured shriek escape her lips.
"Ahhh!" Victoria screamed while placing her hands on his chest, clawing his shirt, and arching her body against his thrusts.
The sound of her moans and groans filled the room with their bodies colliding on the bed in heated passion.
Every motion created erotic music that served to heighten their excitement even further as her legs wrapped tightly around his waist, locking her feet behind his back.
Her expression transformed into a beautiful mix of arousal, joy, and blissful pleasure as she rocked back and forth beneath him, letting loose her feminine cries of ecstasy.
"It's so good, ahhhh!"
After a while, as sweat flowed off both their skins, soaking each other, both of them reached their peaks and embraced each other in a passionate climax while grunting and moaning in blissful abandon.
When they finished, Richard and Victoria stared deep into one another's eyes, still savoring the feelings coursing through their bodies.
"Oh, Richard... No wonder they call you the lady killer! You're just on another level." Victoria smiled and kept her eyes locked on the man hovering above her with a handsome face and messy hair.
"I haven't even started yet, love." Richard growled into her ears, kissing her earlobe before continuing, "I'll make you understand just why I am called the lady killer."
"AND CUT!!!!" James shouted once Richard finished delivering his line. "Fantastic job! The heat in your exchange was scorching. Vanessa and Lucifer, that was an outstanding performance!"
