The Royal Mark-Chapter 407: Touch me

Elsa was so stunned that Chris followed her to her room. But what shocked her the most was seeing Chris crying in front of her. It immediately made her stop sobbing.

"W-Why are you crying?" she asked while sniffling.

Chris, however, was lost for words. He doesn’t know what to say since he acted on impulse. For him, she is his wife, his other half, and it is his job to make sure she’s alright. For Elsa, he is her boss, her neighbor... A complete stranger.

He stared into her eyes, his mouth opening and closing repeatedly as he hesitated to speak, unsure of what to say. Seeing her tear-soaked face pinched his heart. Not only did he not want to see her cry, but he also didn’t want her to feel the pain and heaviness in her heart that she was carrying.

The only time that he could accept her cries is when it’s from pleasure or joy... Right... It is only acceptable if she’s crying tears of joy. But how can he make her happy when the reason for her tears is him, his old self that she had forgotten?

"If I can’t bring back the old happy memories that you lost, then so be it. Let it be lost forever. I will replace it with new ones. I will help you forget what’s hurting you the most. All you have to do is trust me..." Chris uttered.

He has made up his mind. No more second thoughts, no more hesitation. He will make her love him without his past, their past. He will make sure that she will be happy every day and for the rest of her life so she can forget the man that he hit with her car that day.

The man who was once a King, her fated mate. He is no longer that man, he is now an ordinary human like everybody else in the place.

Elsa was so confused about what was going on. How could a man that she just met yesterday be so concerned about her? Does he know something that she doesn’t?

"W-What are you saying?" Elsa questioned as she wiped her tears.

Chris breathed in deeply before grabbing her face, "This is what I mean," and sealing her sweet lips with his.

’Oh God, I missed this so much,’ Chris thought when his lips landed on hers.

He tasted her a bit before diving in deeper. Her warmth was still the same, making him crave more of her. After taking his sweet time licking and sucking her lips, he gently slid in his tongue connecting with her deeper.

To his surprise, Elsa didn’t oppose his advances, as if she was enjoying it as well, she wanted him too.

But that’s what he thought. Elsa was lost, she didn’t know what to do, whether to push him away or not. However, deep inside her, she wanted it, she wanted him.

His lips, his tongue, and his touch felt so familiar. It was as if that was the one that she was longing for all these years. She felt at ease and at home in his arms. Is he the one that she’s looking for?

Elsa suddenly pushed him back. ’What have I done?’ she asked herself, panting.

She stared at his watery eyes that looked like his tears would fall once more any moment.

He was panting like her but kept his mouth shut. He stared back waiting for her next move.

’Should I ask him again? He didn’t answer me earlier, but why?’ Elsa’s mind was filled with a thousand questions. But her heart speaks louder at that moment.

She was afraid to ask him again. She was scared to know the truth, afraid to be rejected. ’What if he’s not the one? He has no reason to hide his identity, right? But what if there was, what if revealing his identity would put us both in danger?’

She was struggling inside. Her heart and mind were not in sync. It was so hard...

Her heart was pounding so fast. All her life, she always does what she thinks is right. But this time she will do what she feels is right.

Elsa brazen herself, and with one deep breath, she grabbed Chris’ collar and pulled him towards her. This time it was she who sealed his lips with hers.

She felt his arms wrap around her waist, drawing their bodies together.

He kept pulling her until she felt him carry her to the bed and hover above her. He then gently pulled away and gazed at her.

Chris brushed the back of his hand on her cheek as he stared at her face. Her hair was sprawled on the bed and she was no longer in tears.

"Elsa..." he murmured.

His voice felt soothing, the pain in her heart was slowly going away. The more he touched and kissed her, the less pain she felt.

So, once again, her hand grasped his shirt while the other touched his chest where his heart was.

"Kiss me..." she said.

Chris lost it, and the last bit of self-control that he was trying hard to hold onto vanished. He quickly lunged in and captured her mouth. He felt Elsa wrapped her arms around his neck.

’Fuck! I hope she won’t regret this... I can no longer hold it,’ he thought before his right hand started roaming all over her body while his left held his weight.

Elsa was completely determined to continue, it was all or nothing for her. Her hands moved down and unbuttoned his shirt, which utterly surprised him but put a smile on his face.

She slowly removed his shirt and her hands grazed his bare body.

’Why do I feel like this? Why do my hands seem like they touched him before? I know this feeling, my body can remember it,’ Elsa thought.

She wants to know what was happening to her and she’s willing to take it further. And there’s only one way to find out, and that is to not hold back.

Elsa took a step further, her hands traveled down his chest, and his abdomen, and finally landed on his belt. She unbuckled it but to her surprise, Chris grabbed her hand, stopping her.

"Are you sure about this?" he asked.

Elsa nodded and said, "Touch me... Touch me, Chris..."

Chris gulped and bowed his head, resting it on her shoulder. "You are killing me, love. You are fucking driving me insane."
