Secrets in the Shadows

Chapter Sixteen

A loud noise coming from outside made them glance towards the kitchen window. Maev breathed a sigh of relief, somehow she was glad that something had distracted Kramer. If he had stood there for another minute staring at her like she was a piece of candy, she would have probably melted against his lips. Maev stood by the door as Kramer hurried towards the kitchen windows. He turned and glanced at her, putting a finger to his lips indicating to her to remain quiet. Kramer slowly pulled the curtain back and looked outside. He stood there staring outside with narrowed eyebrows and Maev was curious to find out what was he looking at with such a serious face. She slowly tiptoed towards him and stood behind him.

" Can you see anything?", she whispered.

" Nothing! That noise was as if something or someone was so close to the cottage!", he said walking towards the kitchen door and opened it.Kramer ran upstairs and got changed rapidly, grabbing the key he came downstairs and found Maev standing in the sitting room.

" Go to your bedroom", he said," I'll go check it out", he continued.

Maev didn't think it was a good idea for him to go outside alone. She didn't know why but she feared something could happen to him just like his brother.

" I'm coming with you!", She said walking towards the door behind him. She's crazy this one! Kramer said to himself when he heard what she had said." No!, and you better stay inside!", Kramer said with a serious tone. His dark eyes glaring at her made Maev take a step backward and obey. Kramer unlocked the door and walked outside closing the door behind him.

Maev stood by the window and looked outside, she couldn't see Kramer anywhere.

" Where is he? What's going on out there?", she whispered. She tapped her fingers impatiently on the wooden frame of the window, she stared at her reflection in the glass window, she couldn't believe that she was worried about her enemy! Shouldn't this come as a blessing, if something happens to Kramer she will be free. But, on the other hand, whatever was out there, if it hurts Kramer it will find its way to her and the maid. Maev gulped at that thought.

Maev quickly turned her attention towards the front door as she heard what sounded like someone was playing with the door handle. She took a step away from the windows, her full attention was now on the front door. Kramer walked in and he looked at her with narrowed eyebrows as she stood there smiling at him and he was more puzzled when she quickly walked up to him and wrapped her arms around him tightly. Kramer didn't even know how to react, he cleared his throat and Maev opened her eyes and stepped backward.

" Sorry... I'm just glad nothing happened to you", she said softly with a stutter.

" Did you see anything or anyone!?", she asked anxiously changing the subject.

Kramer shook his head indicating no and after he removed his jacket and hanged it, he turned and looked at her with a serious look on his face.

" Why are you glad that nothing bad happened to me? I thought you will be glad if I died so you can be free.., it might be your people out there coming to get rid of me, just like they did to my brother!", Kramer said with a slight pinch of anger.

" Here he goes again! We cannot have one-minute peace between us and have a proper conversation!", Maev said and then she added, " you are just impossible to please!".

Kramer smiled and walked towards her,

" You want to please me Maev?", he asked in a whispering tone when he was standing right in front of her.

Maev was taken aback by his question and didn't know what to say. She turned to walk away when she heard him say," I doubt if you would ever be able to please me", and Maev felt the sarcasm in his voice. She squeezed her eyes shut and clenched her fists as she took in a deep breath. Maev turned around and looked at him, she walked towards him, their gaze locked. When she was in front of him, she slowly put her hands around his neck pulling his face towards her and she kissed him hard on the lips. She felt his lips curved in a smile and she looked at him.

" You call that pleasing me! You thought that's what I meant?", Kramer said with a smile, and Maev felt humiliated and she quickly removed her arms around his neck and stepped backward. She turned to hurry back to her bedroom but Kramer grabbed her from behind pulling her towards him.

Her back was leaning against him and he moved her hair away from her neck and whispered against her ear," I didn't say you can leave", his voice was soft and seductive that Maev felt a tingling sensation in her stomach. He slowly turned her around and looked down at her, Maev looked at him, she was hypnotized by the look in his eyes. She knew that he wasn't using any magic on her. It was just her whole body needed him in ways that she had never needed a man before. He pulled her towards pressing her small frame against his hard chest and she could feel his arousal and she nearly pushed him back. This was all new to her, she didn't know how to react in such a situation and she felt that she was just going to humiliate herself more.

Kramer lowered his head towards her and captured her lips in a passionate kiss. She tried to keep up with him following his every move. He picked her up and pinned her against the wall. Maev wrapped her legs around him not taking her lips away from his.

He softly kissed her under her neck and Maev gasped as he started to suck on her skin softly. She felt desires overflowing inside her, she had never been with a man before and now she was experiencing all of these things with her enemy, who was also her husband. She dug her nails in his back and as he captured her lips again she felt butterflies fluttering in her abdomen. He slowly pushed his tongue inside her mouth and she didn't stop him as she allowed him to teach her everything. As he put her down and her feet were on solid ground, Maev felt a tingling sensation throughout her entire body and a delightful flow of moisture in between her legs and she wondered if that's when you know you are ready for a man.

With one swift movement, Kramer picked her up and carried her upstairs. Using his magic he opened the door to his bedroom, walked towards his bed, and slowly placed her on the left side of the bed. The King looked down at her and for once Maev saw something different in his eyes, there wasn't any anger or sarcasm there. The door to the bedroom shut and the lights slowly dimmed. Her heart started to race as the thought of them going to consummate their wedding crossed her mind. Maev looked at him as he removed his clothes and she wondered if she should do the same. He walked towards her and Maev gasped at the sight of his arousal. She wondered if she will be able to please him. Kramer gently took her hands and she stood up. He slowly started to remove her clothes, gently brushing his fingers against her bare skin. As she stood there naked in front of him he took in a deep breath as he savored her beauty. She was a beautiful creature, that he couldn't say otherwise. He slowly removed the last piece of clothes left on her, her silk panties. He gently ran his fingers in between her legs and he heard her gasp.

He could feel she was ready and he hoped that he wouldn't hurt her, he didn't know if he could control himself. He had never been known as a soft kind of lover, he liked to be in control and pleased his woman until she would cry out in pleasure.

He slowly pulled his wife towards his naked body, their bare skin touching almost made him growl. He had to control himself, he has a Virgin for a bride and she wasn't the same breed as her. She was a witch and for him, it will be a first time as well with this species. He gently kissed her on her forehead, then the tip of her nose before he captured her lips in a tender kiss. Kramer pulled away and looked down at his wife, he gently picked her up placing her on the bed. He climbed in bed and Maev's heart beat faster. Kramer lowered his body on top of hers, he looked down at her and brushed away a strand of hair from her face and she smiled at him as if giving him the go-ahead sign. He gently kissed her lips whilst his fingers explored her body. Every brush of his fingers against her skin made her gasp softly, she was feeling things that she had never felt before. She felt like she could turn into a fairy and start flying around. Now she knows what it's like when her friends had told her about the powers of the fairy dust. It makes you float, your entire body feels lighter and happiness fills your entire body.

Kramer couldn't believe how he was enjoying touching his wife. Her soft moans sounded more like a symphony to his ears. As he slowly pushed his arousal inside her, the way she dug her nails into his flesh confirmed that she was indeed a Virgin. As he pushed himself deeper inside her, he opened his eyes and looked at her. her eyelids slowly fluttered open and she looked at him. He noticed the tears slowly rolling down her cheeks. He wanted to stop and as he moved to get off her he heard her said in a pleaded voice,

" Please don't!".

Kramer kissed her softly on the lips and she wrapped her legs around him and tilted her head back as he kissed her under her neck. She ran her nails up and down his back and moved her hips forward asking him to take her. He couldn't hold it any longer he wanted her badly as well. As they moved as one, Kramer for the first time was soft and took his time with Maev. He loved the sound of her moans and groans as he moved inside her. They kissed each other passionately, he guided her throughout and he devoured her entire body with his lips. It was like he couldn't get enough of her. Maev felt her legs were trembling, at first it was softly and then it became more intense when Kramer dug deeper into her. She opened her eyes and looked at him as they both exploded in ecstasy! She held on tightly to him and he kissed her softly on her forehead. He rolled over and for a moment Maev expected him to tell her to leave instead he looked at her, moved closer towards her, placed a pillow underneath her head, and told her to get some sleep.

Maev slowly opened her eyes , at first she wondered where she was and then she saw him sleeping next to her and everything flashed back through her mind. She stared at Kramer’s back with a soft smile on her lips, she wanted to reach out and run her nails along his flawless skin. The smile slowly disappeared as she remembered who they were, enemies, and she gave herself to him.

Well regardless he is your husband and you had s*x with him,she said to herself not for her to feel bad. She slowly got up from the bed, grabbed her clothes on the floor, and got dressed . She looked at him one last time before she left his room and quietly made her way downstairs.
