The love that burns

~Chapter1~

Issabell
The morning light fell through the window waking me up from my deep slumber . 8:15 showed the clock . Time to wake up I thought grumpily hating to get out of my comfortable warm bed in the chilly winter morning.
Half asleep I tried to make my way off the bed but the warm blanket seemed to pull me back , annoyed I tried to fling it of me only to find a strong muscular arm wrapped around my waist .
It wasn't a dream , he was back , he was here . I froze ,last night had been real. I looked at him closely studying his features. His raven black hair fell over his face , his chocolate brown eyes closed shut as he slept soundly . God he was one handsome man with his chiselled face and God what a beautiful body her man had . The impatient grumble of my tummy broke my line of thoughts . With the return of Rome my appetite had also returned ,I smiled ,I  was in a mood for bacon and pancakes.
Trying to remove his strong arm without waking him up proved futile as his arm refused to budge . Giving up on my gentleness I slapped his arm . "Ouch" he grumbled half asleep raising his hurt arm for examination this being my cue to leave the bed . Wearing my jacket I turned towards the bed ready to give him my speech of displeasure and anger for his disappearances but was surprised to find him asleep , my position had now been occupied by my pillow . He snuggled into the pillow hugging it tightly smiling contentedly , for a powerful man he sure was very adorable .

Pouring myself some coffee I smiled. I was happy he was back, relived even, but he would not know this ,the only emotion he is going to see is my anger . This was not the first time he had disappeared . He had done it many times , each time I worried , I cried . He was a busy man I realised that , running a chain of big hotels and restaurants wasn't an easy job . He was the ceo of morello and co. which obviously proved to be a more demanding job than my employment as a pre-school teacher.
He would just go away saying he would be back but wouldn't come back for 2 days or even more . Nearly two years we had been together . A good one and a half years . He was a good man , to many he seemed intimidating scary even but to me he was an extremely muscular teddy bear . He was one mysterious man , it had been one of the things that had attracted me to him. I was aware he had a troubled past , he never told me what it was, all he said was that he wouldn't taint my innocence with something so wicked . I had laughed brushing it as a joke , giving him his privacy to keep his secret. I knew he loved me , he never forgot to remind her this . He had always been on the demanding controlling side , he liked things in his control , he said it was the result of his childhood. I was aware of his hot temper. He was possessive about me ,insecure that I would realise I deserved better . So many times I had told him he was all I wanted all I needed .
I loved him he loved me, or did he ? According to missy my very eccentric Besty he was an old man taking advantage of me, was he ?
She said I was young and obviously good on the looks scale , she said I was crazy not to see my beauty and he was using me . She had an obvious dislike for him . He wasn't worth my time she said.
I was happy with him very very happy , I didn't feel used I felt loved.

Taking a bite of my pancakes I moaned in pleasure at its taste, God I hadn't eaten well since he went on a business trip for 3 days which then turned to 18 days without a single text let alone a phone call. My anger and hurt came rushing back with this thought ,tears pricked my eyes . Before I could dwell more on it a large piece of my pancake was stolen from my plate and into the mouth of the man who had been the reason for my concern
"Hey get your own you ass."
"Good morning to you to fiorella " he exclaimed with his characteristic smirk .
"How could I get my own when you're to angry to cook for me , I would think you would know that I am not as good in the kitchen as I am in bed ,si , one can't be good at everything "

"Don't flatter yourself you cocky idiot . You are as good in bed as you are in the kitchen " I smirked happy with my comeback.

"Never heard you complain my love ,only heard you moaning in pleasure wanting more" he said amused , sneaking another bite from my breakfast

I blushed and huffed in annoyance . Clearly happy with my reaction he took a piece of bacon from my plate and sipped on my coffee taking a seat next to me . Snatching my mug back I glared at him, pushing my chair back with a screech ready to remove myself from his frustrating presence but of course he wouldn't allow that .He pulled me onto his lap.
" what about my good morning kiss ? " he asked .
Trying to push myself of him , I was now super angry , how dare he act as if everything was okay .
I lost my cool, my plan of ignoring him forgot .
"No ,no do not behave as if everything is okay , this is not fair , Ro you promised you would not do this again . But instead you went away for 18 days without so much as a text . This has been the longest you have disappeared on me , it's like you are mocking my feelings , I told you I didn't like you disappearing without a word and you went and did this , would it kill you to inform me, can't you at least text me a simple 'hey ' so I wouldn't worry you were dead . Why , why? Is it fun to see me hurt , huh?
Do you love me or is this some sick twisted game to you ? I am not asking you to stick by my side 24/7 , just inform me you still breathe . But no .
Would you like it if I told you I would be back in an hour and disappear for days without a single phone call ? Would you ?"
In my anger I had changed my position and was straddling him , looking into his brown eyes I could see he was sorry . Good he should be .
He didn't say anything for sometime just stared .
" I am sorry "he said as he kissed my forehead ." I am sorry " he said as he kissed my nose then my cheek then the corner of my lips ,my neck all the while mumering how sorry he was . " I am so so sorry , so very sorry " he looked into my eyes and I saw his sincerity shining through his brown ones . He gently stroked my cheek finally pecking me on my lips gently.
I smiled and pulled him towards me and gave him a long kiss on the lips , breaking the kiss before he could respond . He chucked I giggled , he gave me a warm long peck on the lips , I giggled again .
We looked in each other's eyes and like magnets are lips smashed together in a warm sensual kiss with a bit of urgency . Are lips moulded together , our tounges playing a game of there own , I moaned into the kiss as the warmth spread through my body , I could feel his arousal through his suit pants standing in its glory . Suddenly I was hauled onto his shoulder . I yelped in surprise .
" it's been to long , to long baby " he said as he slapped my behind playfully , still breathless from the kiss rushing towards my bedroom .
