and let me crawl inside your veins. I'll build a wall, give you a ball and chain.
She has learned to play many roles in her life, but being herself had always been what she struggled with the most. Somehow, she had given up her charades with Lie long ago, and even though it was nothing new for her to not feel like she needed to play a part around him, there was still this strange sensation that this was the most naked she has ever been. Maybe because they are, finally, no longer pretending that they don’t want each other; maybe because she is no longer pulling away at the smallest sign that things were about to go too far, because as he kisses the back of her leg, she knows they are already there.
He breathes her name and something about the sound sends a shiver racing up her back, and the feel of his shadows coiling around her throat causes her heart to jump. She can feel her breath quickening when he touches her, and a combination of his touch and the shadows tightening around her neck thickens the light-headed fog that she was already lost in. “Lie,” she manages to gasp, pressing herself into him. Her body begins to quiver uncontrollably, her breathless moans becoming more urgent, and she can feel herself getting so, so close, until he suddenly stops.
Knees weak and trembling, she doesn’t resist when he drags her closer, his teeth scraping her skin and forcing something like a cry and a moan from her mouth. She wishes, for once, that he could read her mind. That he could read how desperately she wants him, that he could hear the way she is pleading in all the ways her body and voice can’t. But even without it, she knows that he can read her, plain as day. Her star-studded body is still pressing needily back into his, her skin is quivering everywhere his teeth and lips land, and her voice is tremulous and breathless when she says, “Yes,” just one word at first, but it is filled with a wanting ache. “I need you…” Her voice trails off for a moment, trying to keep the desperation at bay, but with a tilt of her silver head her intense blue eyes find his, and there is a plea so clearly written there when she says, “I need you to show me you’ve been wanting me as badly as I’ve wanted you.”
