Chapter 157 - Can't sleep

Kris turned on the light to his empty home. Lena walked in and stared at the familiar place. It's been a while since she was here.

She walked to the guest room and closed the door. She knew the house like the back of her mind. She locked the door and went to take a shower. Halfway through, she noticed Kris has no toiletries... She just took a shower without shampoo or body wash.

Kris did not mind her. As long as she was here and not down there with that stranger. he went to his room and took a shower.

When he got out, he went to check on Lena, but the door was still locked. It was already very late. He looked at his phone and he got a goodnight text from Lena. He went back to his room and laid on his hard bed.

He placed a hand on his heart. He was feeling.... happy. And happiness was a good thing. He looked at the picture of his mom and a younger version of himself that was on the side of his bed.

He only had a few days until her birthday... he does not know if he was ready or not.

Kris turned off the lamp and tried to go to sleep. He found himself continuously tossing and turning on this "supposedly" comfortable bed. Why was it that he could not sleep tonight? Was it because he was lying down so peacefully on Lena's bed before that he does not like this bed anymore? Does he like a soft bed instead?

Kris got up. He grabbed the master key from his drawers and went to Lena's room. He quietly opened the door. He saw her sleeping soundlessly. What kind of woman can sleep so deadly when there was another man around?

He walked up to the bed and pressed on it. It was soft and squishy like Lena's bed. He looked at Lena again. He ninja picked her up and moved her to his room. His other guest room does not have a bed.

He went back to Lena's room and plopped himself on the bed. He closed his eyes. A few minutes later, he opened them and continue to toss and turn too. It was not the bed.... He sat up. He was tired but he can't sleep. What the hell?!

He went back to his room and picked Lena up again. He placed her down back in the guestroom. He covered her up with the blanket and stared at her sleeping face. He slowly removed the hair her hair that was blocking his view.

Kris yawned. He was getting very sleepy now... was it because of her? He laid next to Lena and stared at her. He gently placed a hand on her cheek and caressed the soft small face of hers. He looked at her long lashes and down to her pink lips.

He smiled. Those were the lips that kissed him... no, it was the lips that he kissed. He softly pinched Lena's cheeks but she did not budge one bit. Looking at the beautiful face, Kris knew... Lena was not a friend.

Kris went on all fours; hands and knee between Lena. He was above her motionless body. "You're mine and I am a dangerous man."

He placed his right hand on the side of her face and bent down to kiss those lips that he had been staring at all night. The lips that have been haunting him in his dreams. He knew that it was wrong, but the cowardness of him would not be able to do this if she was awake.

His cold lips touched the small lips of Lena. He pressed gently on hers and parted away after a few seconds. He was not missing home, nor Lena's home... he was missing her.

"That was practice, let's do it for real now." Kris whispered in a deep husky voice, using the same exact phrase that Lena said to him.

He dived into Lena's tender lips and sweetly sucked on the top and bottom lips. He kissed her deeply, just how she taught him. He pressed her nose and she opened her mouth instinctively to breath.

The instant it opened, he stuck his tongue in, exploring every crevice of her mouth, trying to recall every single part of it. He did not want to overdo it so he left the inside of her mouth, licking any excess liquid that escaped his exploration. He sucked on her lower lip gently before lifting his head to look back at the pretty lady once more.

His hand was still caressing her now warm cheek. "That's punishment, for being a bad liar. For pretending you don't remember what you did to me... now you really won't remember this."

He kissed her forehead and use his fingers to wipe her lips dry. He promised himself to stop after one time... but he had still not punished her for openly letting a man inside her home, feed him HIS food, and letting him stay.

He bent down to Lena's bottom lip and bit it until he could feel it bleeding a bit.

"Ah.." Lena softly let a small cry of pain. She slowly opened her eyes but Kris put his hand over her eyes. He licked the blood and then kiss her forehead again.

"You're dreaming... go back to sleep."

He had one arm under Lena, holding her head. He pushed it toward his chest and he rolled over to the side to be next to Lena instead of on top of her. His hand that was covering her eye, he removed them and patted Lena softly on the back so she would go back to sleep.

Once he was sure she was sleeping again... he let his arms relax but still hugged her tightly against him. "Sorry... but I am a selfish man.. the best fish in the sea." He smiled and closed his eyes.
