L UMUHOD ito sa harap niya. Gusto niyang maparalisa sa tanawing nasa harap niya. Napapikit si Jade kasabay niyon ay ang tila pag-ikot ng paningin niya.
“I am what?” ani Kurt.
Alam nito ang tinutukoy niya at sa kauna-unahang pagkakataon ay may totoong amusement sa tinig ng lalaki.
Hindi sumagot si Jade. Humigpit ang yakap sa mga binti.
“Open your eyes.” Hindi matanggihan ng dalaga ang tinig nito at sumunod pero tiniyak na ang mga mata’y sa mukha nito nakatuon.
He cupped the back of her head and kissed her again. Subalit pilit kumawala si Jade. Fear in her eyes.
“Now, you’re very insulting, Jade,” ani Kurt na patuyang ngumiti. Hindi malaman kung ano ang iisipin sa dalaga.
Some women were a bit surprised with his body but the desire in their eyes were obvious as if they couldn’t wait enough to consume him.
At kung may isa mang bagay na hindi sila nagtalo ni Ellaine ay pagdating sa kama though she was a petite woman kumpara kay Jade na may kataasan.
Pero takot ang nakikita niya sa mga mata ni Jade. And she wasn’t faking it!
Gusto nitong mapahalakhak.
“Turned chicken at the last minute, Cherie? ” bulong nito and captured her earlobe and bit it.
Napaungol si Jade kasabay ng paggapang ng kilabot sa buong katawan. Kurt’s hand went around her and traced the softness of her back.
“But... Kurt,” protesta ng dalaga.
Kinabahang totoo. Ni hindi niya masabi na ito ang kauna-unahang pagkakataong ibibigay niya ang sarili sa lalaki. Natitiyak niyang mabilis pa sa alas-kuwatro na aalis ng silid si Kurt. At hindi niya gugustuhin iyon. No, not now.
And Kurt isn’t going to be gentle. Natitiyak niya iyon. Nasa isip nitong hindi ito ang unang lalaking aangkin sa kanya!
“Sshh... it’ll fit. I won’t take you until you’re ready, okay?” he said in a dry amusement as he flicked her earlobe with his tongue.
Tuluyang nalunod ang protestang nasa isip ni Jade. The man is so big that he’ll probably break her in two.
His mouth kissing and sipping. His hands roaming and touching her. And it’s too late to stop him no w. At wala rin siyang balak pahintuin ito sa kabila ng lahat.
Hindi lang niya mapigil ang mangamba.
At ngayon niya natiyak na kahit sa nakalipas na tatlong taon ay hindi ilang beses na ginambala ni Kurt ang kaisipan at damdamin niya.
“Sweetheart, how long has it been since you got f...ed?” bulong nito na hindi naman talaga naghihintay ng sagot. “A real one...? I bet Bradley had such a finesse ass. I doubt if he made you wild...”
She cupped his face and kissed him full. Hindi niya gustong marinig ang mga sinasabi nito tungkol sa ibang lalaki. Gusto niyang ituon ang buong kaisipan sa katawan nitong nanunukso sa ibabang bahagi ng katawan niya.
In her saner days, she would have been horrified and scandalized sa mga salitang ginagamit nito.
Kurt’s groaned dissolved against her lips. Then he swept her mouth with his tongue. Malupit ang halik na iyon at puno ng kamunduhan. Tumatanggi ang utak niya sa ganoong paraan subalit hindi iyon pinahintulutan ng katawan niya.
Dahil ang kamay niya’y kusang naglakbay sa katawan ng binata. Nararamdaman niya ang mga pilat nito sa dibdib and caressed each one of them. Nang mahagip niya ang pinong balahibo nito sa dibdib ay ipinaikot sa mga daliri niya nang mahigpit. Wala sa loob.
Napaungol si Kurt. In pain... in pleasure. He bit her lower lip back bago muling inangkin nang buong-buo ang bibig niya. While his hand moved down to her thighs. Touching her dampness... her warmth.
“You’re ready now, cherie,” bulong ni Kurt at kumawala.
He straddled her. Tinitigan ang dibdib niya. Her nipples were pink and hard. Muling yumuko and drew one nipple into his mouth.
“Oh, Kurt...”
Itinaas ni Kurt ang mga kamay niya sa may headboard. Ipinahawak sa pagitan ng mga brass rails.
“Hold on tight, mon ange . It’s gonna be a rough ride...” h e nudged her thighs with his knees and then roughly drove into her.
Hindi mapigilan ni Jade ang pagkawala ng impit na sigaw. Hindi niya malaman kung paano siya naiusog patungo sa headboard.
Dahil ba sa higpit ng pagkakahawak niya sa rails ng headboard at sa sakit ay nahila niya ang sarili? Or the way Kurt drove savagely?
Kurt tensed.
Her tightness is unbelievable that it hurt his sex. He thrust again. Malakas na suminghap si Jade kasabay ng pag-ungol.
Muli’y bumaba ang tingin ni Kurt sa mukha ng dalaga. She was writhing in pain. Malupit at nag-aapoy ang mga mata ng lalaki sa pagkakatitig sa kanya. Habang si Jade ay pinamumukalan na ang mga sulok ng mga mata ng luha.
“Damn you!” marahas nitong bulong. Naglalabasan ang pawis sa noo. Ang mga ugat nito sa leeg ay nanggagalaiti sa galit sa kanya. “Damn... damn you! So you want me to initiate you, huh? I’ll give you what you want.” h is eyes and words cruel.
But what he did next was even worse, his right hand moved down and cupped her buttocks and raised it ruthlessly. Groaned and pushed very hard.
And Kurt wished he’d die.
He took her in anger. At kahit pa siguro hindi’y wala itong alam na ibang paraan upang mabawasan ang sakit.
Jade fainted!
JADE opened her eyes at huling-huli niyang sinisipa ni Kurt ang dingding at ang walang habas nitong pagmumura.
May ilang segundo lang siyang tila nawala sa kamalayan kaya alam niyang katatayo lang ng lalaki. She noticed the bedsheets that covered part of her body.
She smiled silently. He wasn’t that uncaring afterall.
“Now, I believe you...” she whispered na nagpalingon kay Kurt sa kanya. “I fainted just as you forwarned me...”
“Shut up!”
“And I broke your record, Kurt...”
Kitang-kita niya ang matinding galit sa mukha nito.
“What record, damn you!”
“You said you always make your women come. I didn’t.”
“Well, I’m sorry,” he said insincerely. “I’m a lousy guy!” Humakbang ito patungo sa pinagbagsakan ng tuwalya at akmang dadamputin nang awatin niya.
“You won’t leave me like this, Kurt. That would be the height of selfishness...”
Muling napatingin nang matalim sa kanya si Kurt. Kung nakamamatay ang mga titig nito’y kanina pa siya nalagutan ng hininga.
“You’re many things... but a selfish lover is not one of your bad attributes, is it?”
Hindi sumagot si Kurt. Patuloy sa pagtitig sa kanya. Sa pagtaas-baba ng dibdib nito’y alam ni Jade na nagpipigil ito ng galit. Naroon pa rin ang butil-butil na pawis sa noo nito.
“It doesn’t hurt that much the second time around, does it?”
He was furious. Wala itong malamang sabihin. But the thought of what she’s saying made him grow again that he ached.
At kahit ito’y nagulat sa reaksiyon ng sariling katawan.
Jade wasn’t shock anymore by his immodesty but she was mesmerized. From half-arousal, she saw him hardened to the fullest. And he was beautiful and proud.
Sa pagkakataong iyon ang takot ay may kasamang init na gumagapang sa buong pagkatao niya. She’s hurting but the thought of him inside her made her hot and damp again.
Tumaas ang mga mata niya sa lalaki. “Make it up, Kurt,” bulong niya.
Totoong nasaktan siya nito. He couldn’t help it. Kahit sa anong paraan ay masasaktan pa rin siya.
Pero ginawa iyon ng lalaki sa galit sa sarili at sa kanya.
Umikot sa gilid ng kama si Kurt at niyuko siya. Padahas na ibinangon mula sa pagkakahiga. Napaluhod siya sa kama kasabay ng pagbagsak ng kumot.
“You broke my record, too,” he whispered back. “I didn’t come either.”
“Why didn’t you?” Her voice hoarse. She could feel him in her stomach.
“Who wants to screw an unconscious woman?”
Lumunok siya. Lumaki siya sa barakong kapatid at mga pinsan pero ang mga iyo’y banayad kumpara sa lalaking ito. Romano will probably kill this man kung malalaman nito kung paano siya tratuhin. Not to mention her family.
“You’re so crude and vulgar, alam mo ba iyon?”
“I never pretended otherwise. And yet you still want me,” paismid itong ngumiti. “Women fascinates me.” He bent his head and brushed his lips across hers. Then claimed her lips fully in a gentle but passionate long kiss while his fingers fondled her breasts.
Iniwan nito ang mga labi niya at bumaba sa leeg niya, kissing and sipping the delicate hollow of her throat. Bumaba sa dibdib niya at isinubsob ang mukha sa pagitan ng mga ito.
Kumawala si Jade. “Naninibago ako,” she said huskily. “I guess I’d like it better when you devour me. It makes me feel like you wanted me so very much you can’t have enough of me.”
“And I want you so much I could die.”
Subalit hindi isinatinig ni Kurt iyon. Sa halip ay muling inangkin ang mga labi niya. His kiss gentled, moving in and out of her mouth. Savoring every sweetness. Ang kamay nito’y humahaplos sa buong kahubdan ng dalaga.
At sa pagkakataong iyon, sinikap ni Kurt na maging maingat at banayad. But the passion was overwhelming and uncontrollable. Parang dam na sasabog kapag hindi binuksan ang mga gate ng tubig upang bawasan.
Ang mabanayad na paraan ay pansamantala lamang dahil hindi niyon kayang subhan ang init ng mga damdamin. He was biting, kissing, and touching her at the same time.
Roughly... wildly... His hands can’t stay in one place long enough.
Jade was submissive and pliant. Strange that she liked his ways. She was kissing and caressing him back softly. Revelling at the pleasure of touching his hard sinewy body.
At hindi sanay si Kurt sa paraang iyon ng dalaga. Kahit si Ellaine ay hindi ganoon. Women he went to bed with shrieked wantonly and uttered obscene words shamelessly. Rich and cultured women and yet in bed are vulgars.
They hurt him as he hurt them in passion.
Jade moaned, cried, gasped, writhed and wiggled wantonly too. But with finesse. Kanina’y sinaktan siya nito nang hilahin nito ang mga balahibo niya sa dibdib. But Jade didn’t mean it. She was too gentle to hurt him.
Damned woman! Too classy and decent for his style.
“Touch me, Jade,” he commanded harshly. His desire bordering on anger. “Squeezed me... tight...”
“I–I want that...” k ung lumabas ang tinig niya’y hindi niya alam. Ang alam niya’y tila siya isang masunuring estudyante at ginawa ang iniuutos nito.
At kahit siya’y namangha. Sa mga kamay niya’y ang kaibahan ng lalaki sa babae. She could feel the throbbing desire of his sex.
At si Kurt ay hindi ordinaryong lalaki.
And she was so delighted sa response mula kay Kurt. He groaned like a wounded beast.
Padahas na kinuha ni Kurt ang mga kamay ni Jade at itinaas sa rehas ng headboard. And then his hands joined hers. Their fingers interlaced. His chest crashing her breasts. Their sweats mingling. Then he hammered into her.
Jade gasped and tensed momentarily as a little pain registered. Gasped even more when he withdrew and embedded himself inside her.
“Don’t faint on me, Jade,” babala ni Kurt as he thrust into her over and over again in absolute possession.
Hindi niya alam kung ano ang sinabi niya. Her thoughts were incoherent. Her breathing harsher, tulad din ng kay Kurt.
“Tu m’appartiens, Jade... laisse-moi t’aimer, ma cherie...”
Her mind was in haze but she was sure Kurt was harshly whispering endearments in French. Something like she belongs to him and that letting him love her. Hindi ganoon kahusay ang French niya pero kahit papaano’y nauunawaan niya. Iniisip marahil ni Kurt na wala siyang maiintindihan sa sinasabi nito. He must have slipped and probably never meant what he said dahil ang sumunod nitong ibinubulong ay obscene na... at sanay na siya roon. At kataka-takang nagdagdag lang ng ningas sa naglalagablab na apoy sa katawan niya.
But she was more aware of the big man inside her. Possessing her wildly. Na para bang ang bawat gawin nito’y hindi pa sapat.
And she almost fainted when Kurt gave her her shattering climax.
At sa kauna-unahang pagkakataon sa buhay ni Kurt pagkatapos ni Ellaine ay hindi ito umalis sa ibabaw ng isang babae matapos ang pagtatalik.
Sa halip ay ibinagsak nito ang sarili sa katawan ni Jade at isinubsob ang mukha sa leeg ng dalaga.
His teeth caught the soft flesh as he tried to recover his breathing.
