In Heat

In Heat: Chapter Six

Chapter Six

     Hearing that deep musical voice sent my heart racing, I could feel their hot breath against my already heated skin. I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself but having such a strong male presence this close to me was sending my body into overdrive. A delicious tingling sensation spread deep down inside me. As he took another step towards me, his hard chest was pressed up against my back. I could help but gasp at the sudden contact between us, the effect it was having on my body was overwhelming. I began to pant and get a little light headed, the muscles deep down in my stomach were ablaze, almost painfully so.

    “Aren’t you going to say hello?” he said, with his lips brushing against my ear.

I closed my eyes and bite my bottom lip as I turned around the face the man who had sent my body crazy. I slowly opened my eyes and raised my head, finding myself face to face with the oh so charming and ever so attractive Liam. His blue eyes burning into mine, with such passion and wildness.

    “If you keep biting that lip of yours you’re going to make it bleed.” He said huskily as he brushed his thumb over my bottom lip, making me release it and catch my breath.

After another second or so I finally managed to recover from his sensual touch.

     “Hello Liam.” I said quietly almost breathlessly.

     “Are you feeling better now?” he asked as his eyes slowly travelled down my barely cover body. “You look you better, although to be honest you always look good.” He said as his eyes reached mine once more.

     “Umm y...yeah. I…I’m feeling a little better.” I stuttered in reply.

     “Do your parents know you’re out here like this all by yourself?” he asked as tucked my hair behind my ear.

     “No.” I replied.

     “Well I think you should probably be getting inside. Seeing how some of the males around here are looking at you, I don’t think you’d be safe out here all by yourself.” He said with a smirk on his lips and hunger in his eyes.

     “I was just heading in when you came along.” I said gripping my hands together.

The longer I stood here with him to more and more I longed to touch, to see how he felt under my fingertips. Fearing that I might lose my self-control I took a step back and slowly turned to leave. Before I could even take a step he had hold of my arm, not tightly but his touch was enough to make me stop in my tracks. My breath caught when I felt his chest against me and his warm breath on my ear.

     “Well then I’m sorry for keeping you.” He said softly before leaning in closer so his lips brushed my earlobe. “I look forward to seeing again soon.” He whispered and then stepped away from me.

I glanced over my shoulder at him and smiled at him briefly before running into the house. As soon as the door was closed I leaned back onto the cool wood, hoping to get a grip on my thoughts.

     For the rest of the week I managed to hide away in the house, anyone form everyone except family. Although the way Liam made feel was incredible it scared me, something just didn’t seem right. I hated the fact that I didn’t seem to have much control of my body but he did. Yes I didn’t touch him or anything else that had crossed my mind, but it took all my strength to resist. He on the other hand only had to take a step towards me and body was responding to him, responding in way which recently seemed to be a regular occurrence. All I knew now was that I need to be able to get a hold of myself before I saw him again; I need to gain back myself control. What doesn’t help is the occasional burning inside me. Once or twice now I have had to run into the shower quick to try and relieve the pain, at the moment it seems to be the only way I can seem to get rid of it. Although something tell me that soon it’s not going to be enough, soon it’s going to take something a lot greater to ease my pain. Unfortunately tonight, even though I was hoping to have a little more time before I saw a certain person, Harper has invited my family over for dinner. Luckily not all of us as he would run out of room, it’s my parents, Sapphire, Ruby, Amber, Amethyst and I. I sat on my bed brushing my damp hair, looking at the mirror on my desk. I couldn’t help but noticed the bewildered, fearful look and my eyes and the blush of my cheeks, which had become a constant feature. Apart from my cheeks the rest my face looked quite pale and I could see the beginning of dark rings forming around my eyes. I could also tell that I had a little weight, not enough for anyone else to notice but enough for me too. Despite the slight sickly appearance of my face I couldn’t help but to also notice that my face and body had seemed to have matured slightly. Even though my body is quite developed already it was taking on a much more adult womanly shape. My curves were becoming more defined; the slight puppy fat that I had been carrying has seemed to just disappear. Not that I looked fat before, I just had a slightly fuller figure but not so much anymore. Luckily no one has really noticed as I hide behind my baggy clothes once more. Tonight though I won’t be able to hide away so easily, my mother would go mental I walked downstairs planning wearing my normal attire. After another moment I finally got up and made my way over to my wardrobe. My mother, who was pleasantly surprised at the bonfire to see me in more fitting clothes, decided to buy me a whole load of new clothes. Not overly worried at what I was going to wear I just grabbed the first thing I saw, a plum coloured halter neck, knee length dress. Chucking it onto my bed I walked over to my chest of drawers and grabbed myself some underwear. Slipping on my black lacy knickers I headed back towards the dress and put it on. As I tied the halter neck straps around my neck my door came bursting open, revealing my older sisters. For a moment they just seemed to stare at me in disbelief I guess, their mouths hanging open and their eyes wide. I quickly glanced down at my dress and ran my hands down the back making sure it wasn’t bunched up but it was fine. Within seconds though they had regained the composure and glared at me sourly.
