Chapter 550: 550. Revealing

Mauve opened her eyes and noticed Jael was not in bed. She frowned, sitting upright immediately as she rubbed her eyes.

Even though she was already aware of her surroundings, it took her a couple of seconds for her brain to process it.

She wondered where he could have gone and just as she was about to get out of bed, the door to his room opened and he walked in.

"You’re awake," he said and she nodded.

Mauve frowned as her eyes rested on him, he looked like he had rushed out. His hair was in disarray and it wasn’t in its usual ponytail. Mauve thought it gave him a gruff roguish look.

"What?" He asked at her intense stare.

"I was just thinking you should let your hair down more often," she whispered.

He chuckled, the familiar sound teased at her ears. "That’s my line," he replied and got closer, standing at the side of the bed as he stared down at her.

He was scarcely dressed and he looked like he had just thrown the first thing he had laid his hands on. His outfit consisted of his coat from last night and a pair of unfamiliar pants.

His chest was on full display and his pants were low enough to show the start of his V-cut. Mauve’s eyes bulged as she stared at him.

"What now?" He asked as he took off the coat.

"Did you go out like that?" She heard herself ask.

"Yeah," he replied. "Lord Garth and his family are leaving before the first meal and he wanted to have a word with me."

"Did he now?" She asked.

"Do you not approve?" He frowned.

"I didn’t say that," she responded.

"What are you saying then? I won’t know if you don’t tell me." He crawled into bed inching closer to her.

"Don’t you think your clothes were a little too revealing?" She whispered.

"Revealing?" Jael looked at her with wide eyes.

It was obvious she wasn’t the only one shocked at her words but his outfit had bothered her and she knew normally it wouldn’t. She was pretty used to him strutting around naked.

Maybe it was the fact that she wouldn’t get to have him all to herself for as long as she wanted but for now that he was hers alone, she wanted to have a say.

"Yes," she replied, glancing at his chest and waist. Her eyes lingered on his waist as her eyes imagined what lay at the end of the V.

Before she had to share him, she wanted to keep every inch of him to herself especially his... Mauve almost smacked herself at her line of thought.

"If you keep staring at me like that I shall assume you want me to take my pants off," he grinned, his fangs caught the light.

Mauve blushed and forced her eyes up. "What did Lord Garth want to talk about?" She asked, changing the subject.

"Oh no, you don’t get to do that," he replied lifted her off the bed, and placed her across his legs. "You said my outfit was revealing. I’ve never heard that before. Would you explain?"

"No!" She pouted and hid her face from him. Whatever had prompted her to say that, she thought to herself.

"Mauve," he whispered, bringing his lips to her ear that faced him and nipping at it with his lips over his teeth.

"Yeah," she replied. Her entire system concentrated on his hold on her ear.

"What do you mean by my outfit being too revealing?" He asked. He moved from her ear to her neck kissing her lightly.

"But it was," she affirmed.

"But that’s even more clothes than I wear around you."

"That’s different. It’s fine if you’re shirtless around me..." her words drawled as he teased her with his tongue and fangs.

"I wasn’t shirtless," he replied with a smile.

"You might as well have been," she insisted. "Your chest was on full display, not to mention the lines on your waist."

Jael held back his laughter as he sucked on her neck. "What lines?" He asked.

"You know," she groaned.

"No, I don’t," he whispered.

His hands moved from her waist to her bosom, cupping them through her nightdress. Mauve moaned softly at the sensation. His tongue still teased at her neck.

"If you don’t explain, I won’t know when I dress up too revealing again." He added.

Was it the way he was touching her? Mauve felt very lightheaded and the words poured out of her lips.

"The diagonal lines around your waist," she groaned as he pinched her tips.

"Hmm," Jael whispered against her skin. "I am not sure of the lines you mean," he replied. "Could you point them out?"

Mauve nodded, her eyes half closed as desire flooded her system. She turned to the side a little, pulling her neck away from his lips so she could see Jael’s outline.

She stretched out her finger and pointed to his waist. "This," she replied.

"This?" Jael asked as he placed her palm against his skin. Mauve swallowed and nodded.

He used her palm to trace it and then slowly began to head downward. Mauve’s eyes widened slightly as he placed her palm directly over it. It could barely fit.

"I’d rather your attention be here," he whispered.

Still holding her hand in place he carefully lifted her chin and placed a sound kiss on her lips.

Mauve melted against him, enjoying the feel of his lips as he gently coaxed them to move in rhythm with him.

With her hands still on him, he gently guided her backward so her back lay on the bed. He looked down at her as they lay in close proximity before pulling away from her.

Mauve watched him with arousal in her eyes as he took off his pants in a hurry. He was back before she could even miss him, kissing her just as hard.

Gathering her night dress up, Jael invaded her most private of places, taking her to the land of ecstasy.

"Did you oversleep?" Mill asked as Mauve finally made it to her room.

She pouted a little, refusing to look Mill in the eyes, "Something of that sort," she whispered as she took a step closer.

She remembered that Jael had teased a neck a little longer than he needed to and the evidence was properly clear as day if her hair was out of the way.

"I am not surprised," Mill replied, seemingly oblivious. "Yesternight must have been pretty hectic. Did you get enough sleep?"

"Yeah, thanks. Didn’t you?" Mauve asked as she walked to where Mill stood with her bath water.

"Something like that. I had to help the servants clean up after the party so it took a while."

"Oh," Mauve said, immediately feeling like a bother.

"Don’t do that," Mill scolded. "By helping them, I mostly supervised. I didn’t do anything else."

Mauve laughed, "Am I that obvious?"

"You have no idea," the vampire responded.

Mauve laughed again as she slipped out of her dress and got into the water. The warm water almost made her cry out as she sank in.

Mauve wasted no time in helping her clean up and the Vampire didn’t mention anything about the marks on her neck, Mauve took that as a sign it wasn’t bright enough to draw attention.

Seated at the dresser, she heard the sound of the connecting door open and she knew who it was.

She didn’t even bother to turn around to look in his direction while Mill stopped what she was doing to bow at Jael.

"Aren’t you going to check to make sure my outfit isn’t too revealing?" Jael’s voice reached her ears. She could hear the amusement in his voice.

Mauve face reddened immediately and Jael chuckled. She hid her face from him by bending down.

"Mauve," he called and she forced herself to look.

The first thing she noticed was his hair. "Your hair is down?" Her eyes widened.

He smirked, "It looks good, doesn’t it?" He asked.

"It does," she agreed immediately. "I love it."

She was standing to her feet even before she realized, she closed the gap between them stopping right in front of him as she stared at his face.

"I can’t promise I’d always leave it down as it is annoying and I don’t like that it gets in my face but at least for the first meal, I can condone it," he replied.

Mauve nodded, sticking out her lower lip. First off, he had grown his hair out for her and now he was letting it down simply because she said so.

"Thank you," she whispered, and standing on her tiptoes, she placed a kiss on his lips.

Jael’s eyes widened and then they softened. He grabbed her waist and crushed her lips with his.

"What about my outfit?" He asked as he broke the kiss. "Good enough for you?"

She nodded with a laugh, "Yes, it is."

"Would I get a kiss for that then?" He asked with all seriousness.
