Love knot

He sat next to her, holding her hand. She pulled back her hand, glaring at him that very instant. "Are you okay?" he asked looking into her eyes. She nodded.

"It's half past nine. You haven't eaten anything yet. Are you feeling too tired?" he asked. If she didn't know better she'd say she saw concern in his eyes for her.

"I'm hungry" she admitted when she thought she couldn't control her hunger any longer. He smiled, holding a plate for her. She frowned, not liking him anymore. She tried to sit up but fell back into strong arms.

"Did I faint or something?"

He nodded. "Lean forward."

He arranged her pillows and made her rest against the head board. She held her hand out but he didn't give her the plate. Instead he fed her the soup.

It was heavenly. She tried taking the soup from him but he denied, again. He fed her more. She remembered how amazing her life was with him, until she..

She wasn't letting that moment interrupt her happiness. She smiled at him holding back her tears. He smiled back at her.

He was so gorgeous, she blinked. He placed the tray on the side table. "Why are you holding back your tears, Honey?" he looked into her eyes.

She closed her eyes. How did this man know everything? Was she so predictable or was it that he understood her more than anyone ever could!

People told her that she was unpredictable. But he seemed to look right through her soul. She found him extremely close to her just as she opened her eyes.

She moved back, biting back a gasp and he followed effortlessly until their lips were only inches apart. His breath was fanning her cheeks and they turned crimson red. Their lips brushed but she didn't know who had caused it.

It must have been her as she was bending forward. He kissed her and softly bit on her lower lip. She moaned and that made him go mad with desire.

He pushed forward, pressing her back against the head board. His hands supported his weight as he leaned in. There was a knock at the door, making him groan and break the kiss.

He muttered a curse before moving away from her. Mrs Molly came in, bringing a glass of lemonade. "Drink this and you'll be fine no time. It'll help you regain your strength."

She drank it and kept the glass on the tray which Mrs Molly took with her before shutting the door. Nick looked at Honey relieved to know that she hadn't seen Mrs Molly wink before she had shut the door.

"What happened?" he asked sitting on the bed. She moved away from him which brought a sinful smile to his lips. "I don't know. I thought I had just slept" she replied honestly. "You didn't even wake up when I shook you with all my energy" he chuckled.

She didn't say anything to that but looked at his strong muscular arms. "If you're done sightseeing, might I  have my turn?" he smirked.

Her cheeks turned pink and she turned away. "You've become very thin" he commented watching her. Her eyes widened "You mean to say I was fat?" her tone was accusing.

He sighed. "That was supposed to be a compliment, but clearly you have a different idea" he told her before getting up.

He looked at her fuming face once more and walked to the door. She threw a pillow at him with all her might, he dodged playfully.

He smirked as he picked it up. "You do look pretty when you're angry" and threw back the pillow at her. It softly collided with her face and he walked out.

She wanted to scream but she wasn't going to hurt her throat. She had fainted without realising and Nick had rushed to get a doctor. Once the doctor had checked on her and said she was fine, Nick was relieved.

Why else would she get the special treatment? She managed to close her eyes, unknowingly falling into deep slumber. When she tried to turn in her sleep she realised something very strong was stopping her.

She opened her eyes to find a hand resting on her waist and she looked at it's owner. Nick!! He was peacefully sleeping and he looked so damn sexy.

He wasn't frowning or ordering her around and she loved it. He was all she wanted and she wanted him to want her as much as she wanted him. But it probably wasn't the case.

Woah!!! Hold on..why was he here? In the guest room??

She moved here because she didn't want him with her. But here he is. She pushed his hand off, roughly.

His eyes shot open and he pinned her to the bed under his body. Everything happened very quickly before she could even think of reacting. He looked at her and sighed.

He rolled off of her, one of his hands went under his head and the other rested on her waist. She gasped when he placed his hands on her waist and pulled her close.

"Stop it N..Nick!" she managed to speak. He cuddled up and closed his eyes. Was he even awake? Was this man even aware of what he was doing?! "Nick, get up" she said shaking him.

Soft snores made their way to her ears and she had never been more happy to listen to them. She felt safe and comfortable in his arms. She fell asleep in the hands of her husband whose snores sounded melodic to her.
