Gavriel continued feeding Evie one bite at a time as his gaze remained fixed on her face, full of contentment. His grey orbs were dreamy and filled with so much love. However, there was a hint of something else in there as well… something different. It was as though he was scrutinizing her at the same time, attempting to read further into her mind and heart.
Moments later, Evie finally stopped him as she raised both her hands in surrender, laughing as she saw him arching his brows as though not believing that she has had enough.
"I'm full Gav." She then moved to catch his hand that was holding the fork and guided it back to his own mouth. "Eat." Her voice came out like a strict order and Gavriel chuckled. His eyes twinkled at her. "You were so busy feeding me, but you have yet to fill your own stomach." Evie's brows scrunched up a little as she felt a little guilty of completely basking in Gavriel's pampering of her and temporarily forgot about reminding him to take care of himself too.
"Your wish is my command, my queen." He declared with a flourish and Evie felt her face became hot as she watched his seductive mouth clamp around the same piece of steak that he had tried to feed her a few moments ago, all the while his intense eyes stared at her through his thick and dark lashes. Slowly, he chewed on it and Evie found herself unable to look away from those spellbinding lips of his.
"Stop looking at me like that, wife. Do you really want me to continue eating? I might really end up pinning you down on top of this very table." His deep husky voice echoed across the dining table and Evie jolted out of her trance. "I might change 'course' and feast on something else altogether…" And his magnetic eyes caught hers and held them captive.
She immediately imagined what he had just said, and she blushed even harder. Goodness! The god of seduction is back! And this god was her one and only – no one else's. Her heart shivered with that knowledge before filling up with a feeling so sweet that made up for all the agony of being separated from him all this while.
Shaking her head slightly as she tried her best to regain her composure, Evie grabbed at the glass of water sitting before her and gulped it all down a little shakily while Gavriel naughtily flashed her his wicked smile, totally loving the way she reacted to his every actions. But at the same time, he was also regretting what he said to her earlier as of right now, he really… crazily wanted to do just that. He was only a breath away from fulfilling all those words and making them come true. His eyes glimmered as he took in a deep breath that brought the tempting natural fragrance of his wife that had perfused the air around her into his flared nostrils.
"I… we need to go out first and check on everyone. I want to ensure that they are alright." Evie quickly grasped at the first thing that crossed her mind and changed the topic and Gavriel tilted his head. The naughty smile that was hanging across his lips not fading. However, he took another deep breath and tamped down on that beastly instinct to pounce on her.
"First…" he drawled, "that means when we come back, you're going to allow me to do just that, right here in the dining hall, are you, my love?" Gavriel teased her further, enjoying the responses his words evoked in this little wife of his.
Evie's mouth hung open and she literally could feel smoke rising from her head. She had forgotten how much this man loved doing this to her, teasing her to the point that her face' color would look like a cooked lobster. And it was such a shock that her immunity towards his naughtiness seemed to have regressed back to square one, judging from her inability to retort wittily again. She could not help but feel slightly aggrieved at this as she silently mourned her fate.
"Right here in the dining hall?" she squeaked out as she could not believe the words that came out of her mouth as she looked down at the long table that they were seated at. She then abruptly pushed her chair back and rose from her seat. She had heard how she sounded when she uttered those words, and she almost hid her burning face into her palms.
Gavriel rose as well and when Evie turned to face him, he bent over, jailing her between him and the table. "Yes, love." He murmured breathlessly as his gaze on her was smouldering hot. "You want to try it here too, right?" He then nuzzled her in the crook of her neck, causing delicious shivers to travel up and down her spine.
She swallowed. Goodness gracious!
"Gods, I want to pin you down now and spread you out and… eat you… I would then savour every part of you… because nothing in this world would ever taste better than you. No… nothing is even close…" he whispered those words as he nibbled along her jawline and Evie's bones just melted, turning her into a helpless puddle capable of only dangling there in his arms.
Her will was rendered absolutely useless now. What will? There was no such word existing in her vocabulary at this moment! She was seduced wholly and thoroughly with just those words alone and the way he looked at her. And just as she was about to reach out to kiss him, Gavriel pulled himself away – but not without much difficulty.
"But yes, you're right, my love. We need to go check on everyone else first. That is only the right thing to do.." He said seriously as he stepped back when Evie grabbed him and pushed him down to sit on her chair.
