Warning: Sexual content

"Elenora. Enough of this now. You need to talk to me."

No response. Just what he had expected. It looked like further measures were in order. Aro hated to be rude or unkind to her, he almost couldn't do it...but that was the only solution to this awful predicament she'd put him in. He needed to hear her speak, to have her near him. He'd do anything for that.

"Preziosa. If you would please defer from being so childish for five minutes, then Iโ€“"

"Childish?!" Nora zeroed in on the cruel, infuriating word and finally exploded, spinning around to storm towards Aro.

Ah, how quick she was to be overcome with rage. It was what he had been counting on.

Nora never failed to astound him with the pure magnificence of the fire inside her, fire that contested to be greater than Caius's in it's brilliance once she was turned and made immortal. It was something he couldn't wait to see.

Aro was pushing his luck with her though, that was glaringly apparent. Already he had irked her by persistently standing behind her, heckling her with nonโ€“stop failed efforts to persuade her leniency.

Half an hour later, and finally he had something to show for his annoying dedication, which is the only reason Aro allowed himself to feel victorious. She was talking to him now after all. Hadn't that meant he had won their little game?

Nora was rage filled as she approached him like an ireful Goddess, but it was better than the silent treatment. It was not something he wanted to experience again, not from her. Never from her.

Not after last time.

Nora stood toe to toe with him and jabbed her finger rudely into his rock hard chest, taking no notice of the pain she received for doing it or the way his eyes were practically sparkling with enjoyment as she mouthed off at him. Could he be anymore Masochistic?

"You are the childish one Aro! For a vampire over three thousand years old you are astonishingly immature. Your emotional intellect for understanding and being empathetic with others rivals that of a three year old!" She seethed, just verging on yelling, but Aro nearly made her hit the roof when he chuckled in a self satisfied way.

This was precisely what she was talking about. She was enraged and he was laughing. Laughing. Like this was funny to him. Some hilarious joke that only he understood the punchline of. Nora's mouth set angrily and it scared her that she physically felt that anger ripple through her body.

If it wouldn't break her hand, that 'holierโ€“thanโ€“thou' little grin would have been removed with savage ferocity from his face by her palmโ€“but she liked her bones kept exactly where they were, in the right place, so he was saved...until Caius came back. Then she'd sic him on Aro like the angry viper he could be.

It was Nora's turn to laugh now, because she really could, too. Caius was always looking for a fight, a reason to unleash his madness and he was never more ready to do so than when it involved her. Given the fact Aro was in neither he nor Marcus's good graces Nora thought he'd need no pushing to do it...but Aro would know as soon as he touched her that there was no weight or genuinity behind the thought, that she couldn't really do it.

Christ. The more she thought about it she couldn't believe she'd just fallen for that cheap of a trick. It was pesky and bothered her that Aro's giftโ€“or better worded when she was furious with him, his curseโ€“gave him the advantage of knowing exactly which buttons of hers to push to foster a reaction from her. Of course he would use it now, when she had been hellbent on pretending he didn't exist.

His plan to get her to calm down was failing hilariously...all by his own impudence and cheek to think that because they were together, he could do what he wanted and act how he wanted.

"You know what?" Nora, suitably provoked by him, grinned up at Aro who didn't like her mimicking his expression apparently, because his eyebrows narrowed making him look entirely too much like he was pouting; only proving the point of his misguided immaturity to her.

"If you're going to be so arrogant to gain my attention that you're even outshining Caius's prowess and pride, then I really don't see why I'm bothering here." Nora hmphed stroppily and marched back over to the window where she'd been ignoring him in the first place.

Crossing her arms over her chest, she watched the rain fall through the black night over the sleeping city and murmured a colorful collection of obscenities to herself that would have made a nun faint.

Aro huffed and tried to remain patient, pulling his hands from his trouser pockets. A new tactic was needed.

"Darling," He cooed, more of a husky and breathy sigh, his deep voice devilishly suggestive as he prowled closer to her.

Nora stiffened but didn't turn around. She chewed on her cheek painfully to focus on something else other than how hot he was when he was trying to win her over. If she listened she'd give in; he sounded like some sort of captivating irresistible siren trying to lure her to her end.

Aro held off a frown, intently coming to a stop behind her, his chest pressed against her back. So close that she shivered from the cold of him that banished any warmth from the air around her. "Be fair, la mia luce, you know I never meant to hurt you." Nora could have thrown her elbow back into his stomach for saying such an untrue thing, but she'd only end up with a bruise and him smothering her for acceptance all the more.

There was no point, as tempting as it was to see him doubled over in pain as she wished to be. It would only be a taster of her hurt right now.

"I was only trying to do what I thought was best. It's bound into my very soul to want to protect you. Do you expect me not to listen to my love for you that demands I seek justice?" Nora might not have realized she had done it, but her body immediately slumped back into him, thoughts of cussing him out forgotten.

He could be so charming...it was hard to resist.

Aro started playing with her hair, twirling strands around his fingers. He traced his other hand over the skin of her thigh and slipped it under her shirt, drawing patterns lightly on her hip bone.

Her voice was mad in spite of her body's surrender.

"Of course not. You misjugde the reasonings of my anger, Aro. I understand that need you all have to protect me perfectly well..." Nora responded, her tone snippy. She shuddered when his hand moved to her stomach, skimming the band of her sheer, lace underwear. It would be pretty easy for his hand to dipโ€“no!

Woah.

She needed to cool off and focus. This was exactly what he wanted, the conniving prick. Even in their relationship his tactfulness couldn't be staved off.

Nora cleared her throat. "But what you thought was best obviously includes disrespecting me by not even telling me you had him, as well as upsetting your brothers so much they had to leave the room so they wouldn't ruin it again by trying to murder you." She pointed out, successfully playing ignorant of his advances.

"Something you know well, my love," Aro thought the nasty bite to her words was a little bit unnecessary. "Is that the road to hell is pathed with good intentions. That massively applies here, wouldn't you say?"

Aro wound his mouth to the side, deep in thought, neglecting to take her icy tone personally. "That is neither here nor there." He stated dismissively.

Nora battled to keep an amused grin from gracing her lips at his innocent act. He was playing this like he was an angel when he was far from it.

Boldly, Aro pulled his hand from under her shirt and wrapped his arms around her waist, bending so his chin was propped on her shoulder. From this position he could see the side of her face, the other half veiled as she stared stubbornly out of the window...she looked very very angry...murderous.

Aro sent praise to the Gods that he was indestructible.

"I was keeping him for you, love. I've only done it for you. You have to try to understandโ€“" Nora scoffed with indifference to his dilemma, but she started with a gasp and quieted her discontent when he nipped her warningly on the curve of her neck for interrupting him. It hurt and stung, but in an annoyingly good way that had her even more hot and bothered and pissed off.

Aro kissed her softly where he'd bit her to show her he wasn't truly mad, his cool breath tickling her skin when he grazed his lips on the shell of her ear. It was a fight, a feud within her. She wanted to let go of her cares and give in...badly. Her head was so fuzzy thanks to him that she felt dizzy and drunk.

"Understand me, Nora." A command. Not a request, she recognized. His confidence was without fucking limits today. "What he did to you, what you felt in that moment. I felt it and saw it allโ€“I only wish to return the favor. To have him struggle and plead and wait torturously for the end of his suffering like he made you." His mouth smoothed little pecks from her neck to her shoulder between each few words he spoke and every time he did, he chipped away at her reason.

"You know I would do anything for you. Anything. Don't you?" He was whispering so tenderly in her ear, appealing to that part of her that only ever wanted someone to do the things he had. Aro was too alluring to her...enticing and sultry and it was unfair, because she was only human. It was easy to transfix her and he knew that. He was playing to that.

He was like the demon on her shoulder encouraging her to give into the bad inside of her, the incubus tempting her away from her innocence. Nora closed her eyes reluctantly, her head falling back against his toned chest as he swayed them from side to side. He was being so gentle and sweet, everything he did was hypnotic and pushed her to ease back into him. He lifted his hand, using his thumb and forefinger on her jaw to tilt her head and guide her towards his lipsโ€“

"Waitโ€“No!" Nora's mind was broken from the spell and her hand shot up to push his face back, gaining a startled exclamation of shock from him.

She'd basically slapped him. It was unusual for her to do such a violent thing and he was blindsided, but he was oddly proud of her.

He was mildly annoyed at the unneeded smack, but he refused to let her go. Nora squirmed but he held fast, keeping his arms firmly fastened around her waist. He had been so close. So close.

"Aro! For fucks sake. You can't just worm your way out of this like that! You should have asked me." Nora stressed, still trying to get him off. It was pointless, obviously, but she was in no mood to be played with like she was an interesting little toy he could try and manipulate. She pulled at his arms so he'd free her but they were kept like steel barriers around her.

How idioitc was he? If he was trying to win her forgiveness, he was doing a shitty job. He was making her more annoyed and like all men he was only thinking with his dick.

It would take more than sweet words and loving touches to make her feel better. How weak of a woman did he think she was to expect her to fall for that so easily? Granted...it had nearly worked, but she was going to gloss over that.

"That's the whole point of this, the reason I feel so upset! You know how much it hurts me when people make decisions for me, when people keep things from me. You've seen my life, my pain and you know me better than anyone...or you were supposed to. That is why I am angry. Not because you have been torturing him, he deserves so much more than that and I honestly expected something like this from youโ€“but because you can't value our relationship or my opinion. If you did, you would have consulted me or asked me if this was what I wanted." Aro frowned then. Deeply.

She sounded so saddened, too sure he had no respect for her, when in truth she was the only person in the worldโ€“apart from his brothersโ€“who had all of his respect.

She had everything from him. Everything. It seemed he'd have to let her know just how special she really was.

He could feel the cries she was trying to keep in as she refused to look at him, her head pointed to look at the ground even when he pulled her back into his chest...those repressed tears were making her fatigued body quiver against him. He really hadn't meant to hurt her like this, especially not when she'd already had such an awful day: but here he was, yet again, the reason for her tears.

"You are right." He admitted, silently joyful when she stopped her fighting somewhat, lifting her face to aim a sly, doubtful look at him over her shoulder. "Forgive me. I should have told you, darling. For that I am guilty."

More than guilty, she wanted to add, but at least he was trying. She could cut him some slack.

"I hope you can take some comfort that I haven't let his time in captivity go to waste. Whether that angers you or not, I am sorry, but I need you to know this has all been about you. About redemption for you. I was waiting, until I thought you were ready...and that was completely wrong of me. It was never my choice to make." Nora caved then like she had wanted to do when he started this emotional tรชte-ร -tรชte.

She twisted around so his hands were on her hips and hers were trapped between them against his chest. It wasn't a full embrace, not yet. He may have been on the path to mending things but her anger wasn't urged away so quickly. She could dangle the prize that he wanted from her a little bit longer.

Aro's hands went up from her hips, laying over hers. His expression was spacey but when the trance his gift always put him in cleared, his face was clouded with paranoia and worry in its place. He gazed deeply, penetratingly into her wide eyes that still conserved suspicions. "I can feel that you haven't quite forgiven me yet Nora. I understand if it may take you some time to but please, if there is anything I can do to acquit myself, say it and it shall be done."

"Well..." She lapsed off pensively in thought, messing with the buttons of his shirt before an idea struck her like a bolt of evil lightning. Oh, here was a convenient opportunity. He really shouldn't have said 'anything'.

Nora smirked at him sinisterly and Aro felt his cockiness disappear. The tables had turned and now, he had accidentally given her the control. This was a mistake...Aro felt that already. His little darling could be quite cunning and crafty when she wished to be, only he had hoped to seduce her before she dug out that part of her he was wise to fear.

"You can start by accepting and taking whatever reaction Marcus and Caius have like a big boy. You know they are within their rights to react however they wish, even if that means you getting your ass handed to you." She was muttering things she'd made up on the spot while she thought about what she really wanted, but Aro nodded regardless and Nora realized with smugness that whatever she said would be set in stone.

"It is doneโ€“"

"Not finished..." Nora interposed, tapping him shortly on the chest while looking back into his eyes, so he could see how serious she was. "You have to agree and put up with whatever I want to do without complaint. Even if it's something you disapprove of."

Already Aro wanted to disagree but... he couldn't. He had said anything. He couldn't exactly take that back now, not unless he wanted to reinstate her ignoring himโ€“which he did not.

"If I want to go see my dad tomorrow like I have secretly been planning? I will go. If I want to give my feigned condolences to the Cullens and patch things up? We're doing it. Edward may have been a dumbass and a freak, but I want to give the others a fair chance at proving they aren't the same...Bella still cares for them after all. As they still care for her." Aro winced, his face dropping with distaste and not hiding at all how unappealing that plan was to him. Nora was certain Marcus and Caius would have much of the same response.

Tapping him on the chest again so he would look at her, Nora was eminently more stern and serious, perfectly conveying this was a deal breaker. This swayed her decision over if she forgave him or not.

"Do you understand, Aro? You will not follow Caius's example of not letting me do things because you're feeling a little overprotective. I am a grown woman, not some pretty little doll for you to protect and keep safe in her fancy gilded cage. I will not be babied and mollycoddled." Reproachfully, she waited for a response with a raised brow, but this demand had apparently thrown him off balance.

Aro was being a tad unfair, choosing to be so openly discouraged by what she wanted. Nora was justified to demand the world if she so wished and he made no fantasies or plans to not give her what she wanted.

It didn't mean he had to like giving in to her.

He had to, though. If he did this then he'd win some credit for later offences. After all, there were things he was still keeping from herโ€“but those things, like the danger of the newborn army he could feel was just waiting to come to a head any day now, were truly to keep her safe.

It also wasn't that he wanted to have control over her or coddle her as she had said. Nothing of the sort. Nora was his mate. His equal in everything. Not some slave who he wanted to bow to his every whim or cage away, like she thought; but what she was suggesting posed issues. Many, many issues.

The Cullens were the main problem since they most likelyโ€“no, they presumably did despise them all now. More than they had before. There was no telling what their reaction would be to the murderers of their son and brother showing back up on their doorstep to 'patch things up', as his sweetheart desired. It wouldn't be that easy. It never was with Carlisle's little family.

Inevitably, they would have had to reconcile thanks to their agreement to aid one another with the Seattle situation. But Nora didn't know. It would only pose more problems if the Cullens brought it up around her.

Another point was that he would have to meet her father. Ah, well, he did not have to but if Nora wished to go along and see her father it was a given that he and Caius would want to go with her. She could demand all she wanted from him, but she never specified her terms. Aro always, always, found a loophole and he knew she wasn't going to like that, but that was tough.

This only meant that they would have to think of some intricate story to sell to her father as to their involvement with her, who they were to each other, why she was going to be staying in Italy with them.

Marcus had failed to do this in the face of Charlie's interrogation, only getting to the point that they were together, they were a couple and Nora had stayed with him during her time in Volterra. When she broke the news that she wanted to go back, to move to Italy permanently, Charlie was going to want some answers and a damn good reason to let her go.

Marcus, during their short visit that had ended up leaving both men with more questions than they had started with, was labeled 'the boyfriend'. So who were he and Caius going to be? In sight of what Marcus had said of the man and his attitude, Aro was more than aware he would have to tread carefully with Charlie Swanโ€“but he wouldn't be letting Nora go into Forks alone when there was a coven of contemptuous vampires possibly plotting their demise. Any form of protection he could allot to her, it would be done.

Aro's displeasure for her courageous and bold request was displayed over every beautiful detail of his face, but he smiled tightly and gritted out his answer.

"I suppose I can do that." He relented, knowing he'd made the right choice when her face lit up with joy that thawed her anger.

Her happiness erased any doubt, as it always did. It was all he wanted for her in this life and for the rest of eternity. For her to be happy. That was something everyone else in her life had failed to ensure.

"Yes! Thank you." Nora beamed up at him excitedly and he practically melted when she leaned up and slid her arms up his chest to encircle around his neck, kissing him with enthusiasm like they hadn't been arguing moments before.

He pressed his lips just as fiercely against hers, moving them in a heated dance and perhaps a little urgently his hand fell to her thigh. He hauled it over his hip, pushing her back against the window with a lot more force than intended, but he could never help it with Nora. She drove him mad.

She grunted, from the cool of the glass seeping through her t-shirt but also from the way their hips fit snugly, perfectly together. Nora's heart skipped a beat as Aro slipped his tongue into her mouth to caress it against hers...in this position she could feel how excited he was and it only made her heart race and ache with longing. He twirled his tongue sensually with hers and Nora felt lightโ€“headed when he sucked on her bottom lip. She could barely breathe.

He kept her leg there when he pulled back, sliding his hand along the skin of the bottom of her smooth thigh while he stared at her with a smirk as she caught her breath.

"You know, sweet Elenora, there are other ways I can express to you how sorry I am. Ways that will have you forgetting the stresses and pressures of these last days." Aro enticed heatedly and Nora's breath caught, her mind filling with all of the possibilities.

His face was misted heavily with desire and Nora wondered how she was going to keep from falling into the lustrous depths of his onyx eyes as they followed each little reaction she gave him as she thought over what he said.

Nora licked her lips, feeling far too warm the more she tried to process what she wanted, even when standing so close to him. He was cool in every way, but none of the cold was distinguishing how hot she felt.

"Do you want me to show you?" Aro enquired in a voice that was made low with need, pressing his hardness into her so she was aware of how badly he wanted to give her a demonstration of his passion.

A sudden spark of courage and mischief took over her and Nora decided to get him back for trying and failing to manipulate her forgiveness earlier. With a smirk growing on her reddened lips, she batted her lashes up at him innocently and shifted against him, daringly and purposefully grinding against his erection.

Aro sucked a sharp breath of air through his teeth and grabbed her jaw with a firm hand, tilting her head so he could whisper coarsely in her ear. "You must if you are daring to tempt me so, vixen."

Nora broke her grip around his neck and braced her hands on his shoulders, biting her lip so hard she tasted copper when he scraped his teeth from the sensitive skin of her throat all the way to her collarbone.

Did she? The question was loaded with issues. She had wanted to for so long. Everyday she was surrounded by three beautiful devils, who wouldn't think what it could be like...to be with them, to finally be with them intimately? She'd had a small taster with Marcus, the question was if she could handle more...

"Iโ€“I..." Fuck it. She did. She really did want him. Now more than ever. Their argument had sparked something between them, a flame of yearning, and they were all aloneโ€“probably for hours yet...it was too convenient to pass up, too opportune and almost delivered to them from fate.

It felt like it was meant to happen now.

"...Yes, I do."

Aro smiled, small and wolfish, against her neck and hauled her up so her legs were wrapped around his waist with her arms back around his neck. She barely had time to react before the room spun dizzyingly around her, before she felt the soft covers of the beds edge digging into the back of her legs when he placed her on her feet.

Their embrace was short lived and Aro left her standing before the edge of the bed, stepping back from her. He looked down at her, his face full of some intense emotion, something that willed her not to take her wide eyes off of him for a second. She was still covered, mind in only a tโ€“shirt and her underwear, but under such a look she felt bare. Like he could see right into her soul.

Observing her slowly, committing every part of her beauty to memory, Aro never broke their eye contact when he began unbuttoning his shirt.

"Do you trust me, Nora?" He asked, abruptly rousing her from her staring, all the while continuing to undo his buttons. It was too slow for her liking and her sudden impatience surprised her...but he was undressing with no hurry to torture her. This she knew.

Nora nodded shakily, breathless when the silky garment fell to the floor. She appreciated every inch of his sculpted chest that was exposed. He was gorgeous. All toned muscle and supple, pale marble skin. He had light abs and a light trail of dark hair leading down. He was lean but flawlessly, deliciously muscular. It was one of the first times her brain recognized and registered him as the erotic creature of darkness that he was.

"Use your words, darling." He said with a smile touching his lips and Nora blinked, startled at the authoritative drawl of his voice filling the quiet of the room.

Nora nodded again automatically in response, trying to force away the everpresent shake that had rooted itself in her voice.

"Yes. Iโ€“I trust you." She had failed, but her soft pitch only seemed to make him want to lose control. When he licked his lips, it was like she was the helpless prey watching the hunter about to lunge for the kill.

Aro made a noise of content, but didn't approach her, knowing it would make her restless to have him near her. "Very good, love. Will you listen?" Nora nodded heavily as an answer, wordlessly for they had all but abandoned her in the power of his presence alone.

Aro smirked, his features overshadowed with something she didn't understand and what he said to her had her weak in the knees.

"Good girl. Sit down, sweetness."

Nora immediately did as he said, her body sinking into the mattress as she sat apprehensively straight for him. His approving stare thrilled her, a tingle of suspense shooting up her spine. She was practically gasping for breath at this point, her heart thudding against her ribcage. Aro hadn't even touched her.

"Tell me amore," Aro started to unbuckle his belt, but he didn't remove his trousers much to her genuine dissatisfaction. "Are you comfortable enough to be bare before me?"

Nora gulped, her skin prickling with heat. She never had been exposed so intimately for someone under her terms, but she wanted to be for him. Her insecurities would have to be forgotten and besides, there was nothing in her that wanted to deny him. She only wanted to appease him.

"Yes." She breathed, remembering to use her words, a decision that appeared to please him greatly.

He didn't speak but Nora didn't need words to understand, the look of expectancy on his face said enough. He wanted her to undress.

Under his watchful eyes and with clammy hands, Nora pulled the black shirt over her head and threw it to the side, now left only in her lacey matching underwear. Nervously, she began to pull the straps of her bra down her arms, her timidness and the tremble of her body nearly making it impossible.

"Stop."

She froze in place at the order, her eyes flickering to meet Aro's. They were the blackest she'd ever seen, a deep obsidian and she was no longer able to clearly distinguish between pupil and iris.

Still with the intimidating aura of a hunter, he approached her rapidly and grabbed her wrist, hoisting her up. Her heart pounded dangerously in her chest and the gasp that breached past her lips went unheard when he spun her around and yanked her back into him. His patience had quite obviously run its course.

It was tense, not knowing his next move, but Nora wasn't left waiting for long.

With expert precision, it took but a flick of his hand for her bra to pop open without ripping it when all he really wanted to do was tear the offending item of clothing hiding her body from him off of her.

Nora tried not to, but she couldn't help the quiver that passed over her as he dragged it down her arms and ripped it completely from her body, exposing her to the cool air in the room.

As soon as he had dropped it, his hand traced a slow pattern up her stomach, over her waist and her ribs, eventually stopping to softly knead the sensitive flesh of her breasts. He was barely touching her heated skin, but it felt amazing. Nora's head fell back onto his shoulder, her eyes closing as she let her fear melt away with every soft touch that felt like burning trails of heat along her skin.

Aro buried his face in the crook of her neck and her hair, one arm around her hips to pull her back into him. She stifled a gasp as his erection pressed into her once more.

"Do you see what you do to me, Nora? Do you see how I feel for you?" Aro whispered gruffly, delivering a sharp bite accompanied by a harsh tug to the lobe of her ear when she took too long too react for his liking. Nora moaned at the sting, her hands grabbing at his arm that still restrained her hips. Her lack of response was only due to her wondering how he was making pain feel so good. "Do you feel how mad with desire you drive me? Only you do this to me, darling."

She felt it, how could she not? But words were still forgotten to her. Nothing intelligible was entering her mind. All she could fathom to think of was him, the way he felt against her, what sinful things he wanted to do. Her needs were just as severe as his...maybe exceedingly so.

Aro chuckled then, her racing thoughts filtering into his own mind like a beautiful symphony of carnal prayers. "All in good time, my love." She could have actually whined as he teased her, his hand dipping between her legs, so close to where she wanted him. "I plan to worship every part of you that you will allow me."

At this point he could do anything he wanted, anything, just so long as he touched her. Nora fet like she was dying for it and he was only making it worse as he continuosuly let his hand wander over her body.

When his teeth sank particularly harshly on the curve of her shoulder, no doubt bruising it straight away,ย  and when his hand worked in tandem, grazing over her inner thigh and the line of her underwear tantalizingly, Nora couldnt take it anymore.

"Aro, please..." Should she have been embarrassed she was begging? No, because she could not think straight enough to be.

Aro chuckled against her skin, laving his icy tongue over the red mark he had left and when he spoke, his cool breath caused the wet skin to tingle. "My, you are impatient my lovely little mate. I suppose I shouldn't keep you waiting any longer."

He felt her thoughts become more vocal as he finally promised to give her what she wanted and he could have bent her over right then and there and fucked the life out of her as he heard how much she craved and needed him.

Keeping his hand ghosting over her inner thigh, Aro used his other to cup her jaw, turning her face towards his. She thought that she would be consumed by the way he was looking at her...as if he wished to devour her. Bringing his lips to hers in a chaste kiss, they turned up sightly in a small smirk when he pulled back. Turning her too quickly for her lust addled mind to process, he gently pushed her so she fell on her back on the bed.

He took her in as he stood between her parted legs and Nora's face flamed red at the way his eyes roamed over every single inch of her body.

"So gorgeous." He mumbled thoughtlessly, his dominance softening for a moment. If she had been feeling unconfident, it would have been completely forgotten. His gaze alone was making her feel like she was the only girl in the world, like she was some beautiful Goddess.

Aro crawled onto the bed and hovered over her, one leg between her parted ones, rubbing torturously against her clothed heat. She wrapped her arms around his neck, every line of his body pressing into her and the cold from his chest caused her sensitive nipples to harden against him.

Aro groaned, his mouth descending and claiming hers when he felt this, a hand raising to lay over her cheek and jaw to draw the kiss out for as long as possible.

His tongue quickly won dominance over hers and when they could bring themselves to separate he demanded, "Open your mouth, preziosa."

Nora's brain short circuted at the order he gave when he pulled his lips from hers, his hand leaving her jaw only to brush his knuckles over her cheek to get her to focus. He could feel she was losing herself in him and though prideful at the effect he had over her, he wanted her to pay attention to every single thing he was going to do to her.

Doing as he said, Nora parted her lips, feeling a little silly doing itโ€“but that was enough for Aro to slip two fingers between them into her mouth and taking incentive, she wetted them with her tongue without him needing to tell her to.

"Good girl." He purred out his praise, knowing how much she enjoyed to be told such things, watching every bashful flutter of her eyes and shade of pink that colored her cheeks closely as he pulled them out.

He bit and sucked heatedly along her neck as a reward for behaving so well, focusing on the sensitive spot just below her ear that made her squirm, before he reached down and ripped her underwear off with little to no effort and absolutely no warning.

"Aro!" Nora cried in sudden embarrassment and jumped at the sound.

She thought her her heart had been racing before, now it was practically trying to jump from her chest as she realized she was completely naked in front of him. He would have seen her like it before in her memories, there was no doubt there, but this was real. This was the first time she'd allowed herself to be so vulnerable for a man. Not even Marcus had been given the pleasure.

Aro let her adjust, giving her time to stop him if she wished. When Nora didn't make any move to do so and simply bit her lip and shifted against him shyly, staring up at him and waiting patiently...nervously for him to do something, his hand between their bodies crept down her stomach to where she truly wanted him.

Nora let out a drawn out, husky moan in surpise at the sudden rush of feelings, her back arching off the bed, her soft breasts against his chest again when he swirled a wet finger over her clit; rolling it in a fast, rythmic pattern that had her hand clutching at his shoulder desperately as pleasure encompassed her.

Nora panted his name and let her head tip back, her hair sprawled over the cream linen sheets and he answered her prayers with a growl of pure desire, his hardness straining against his tight slacks.

He longed to be inside her, to feel her warmth around his cock as he fucked her senseless, but he had to prepare her first. He would not neglect her needs.

Her halfโ€“lidded eyes met his and he licked his lips hungrily at the pleasure marring her face, pleasure he was giving her. To see how good he was making her feel, to hear her soft soft little sighs of his name made his thirst for her spike and he let his forehead drop against hers, whispering sensuously to her, his needs enhanced with every little honeyed moan and whine falling from her lips.

"Does that feel good, darling?" She didn't answer him at first, too focused and consumed by the way he was making her feel. He pressed the pads of his fingers harshly against her swollen bud, eliciting a startled cry and a jerk of her hips at the shock of pleasure. Her attention was fully on him now and the tension behind his gaze made it so she couldn't look away even if she wanted to.

"Hm?" He prompted, his voice low and gravelly. Nora had never felt like this before in her life. If he asked, she would do anything for him. "Tell me, sweetheart."

She nodded wildly, tightening her arms around him as he increased his pace. "Yes! Yes..." She took in a shuddering breath, her hands knotting in his hair, tugging persistently. He could hear it when she finally snapped.

"I want more, Aro. Please." He grunted at her soft pleading, his urges uncontainable, waiting to be released. He bit back a groan that even now, she could somehow enchant him with her sweetness and innocence.

She was so wet as he rolled her clit between his fingers that Aro knew she could take what he wanted to do next. His wandering hand left her suddenly, but he didn't give her time to complain as he coated a digit in her arousal and slowly, very slowly, pressed it in, earning a satisfied moan from her.

The stretch was uncomfortable and painful and what she had expected at first, but Aro took his time to let her get accustomed to the feeling before he began to thrust his finger in and out of her wet heat, building the speed of his movements when she made no complaint.

Aro saw no issue adding a second digit as Nora moaned and grabbed wantonly at his sturdy shoulders, his hair, his backโ€“any part of him she could. Her mind was begging and pleading him for more, her hips undulating in time with his thrusts to try and chase the growing tension.

He fucked her gently and slowly, letting her get used to the feeling, his fingers thrusting in and out at a steady pace and dragging deliciously against her clenching walls.

He curled his fingers inside of her as he pumped them in and out and it was fascinating to him as the small change pushed her even more towards her release.

He could feel she was close to her climax, so close and as he hit that spot inside her that made her jolt her hips for more, her beautiful moans a reverent call of his name and the heel of his palm bumping against her clit, Aro smirked wickedly and pulled his hand away right as she had nearly achieved her climax.

Nora blinked up at him, lost and confused, a quiet and disappointed whimper escaping her that she couldn't feel ashamed for. Not when she was so focused on why he had stopped. She even tried to close her legs to relieve some of the ache as her orgasm receeded, but his leg nestled between them didn't allow that.

Aro tutted down at her, feeling her annoyance rise as he made no move to continue to pleasure her. "You will cum when I want you to and tell you to, darling. Not a moment sooner or later." A deep, pleased rumble vibrated from his chest when heat bloomed over her entire body at his crude words.

She tried not to admit even to herself how much she liked what he had said, but it was futile and she scowled at him angrily, but Aro knew better. This was what she enjoyed, someone taking charge, teasing her. She could try and pretend she didn't but he smelt the divine scent of her arousal become stronger.

"Aro..." Nora was not above pleading right now to get what she wanted. It had felt so good and he'd just taken it away. She needed him and she could have screamed in aggravation, both from her lack of release and the fact she knew there was no hiding her desperate wishes from him.

"Hush, my darling." He soothed, her tense body automatically relaxing at the comfort those simple words kindled in her. "You'll get what you want my sweet. Now, let me take care of you."

She allowed him to disentangle her arms from his neck, one of his hands disappearing from her sight. There was the rustling of clothing, a loud rip, and at the feeling of his uncovered legs against hers Nora assumed he had divested himself of his trousers at last.

Nora tensed, anxiety hitting her full force, steadily replacing her irritation. Aro felt the shift in her mood and his demeanour softened, one hand holding his body up, the other delicately pushing the tousled hair from her worried face as he smiled down at her.

"Try to relax for me, mia anima. I will not hurt you and I will not start until you tell me to. If you wish for us to stop, you need only say so." He comforted, knowing how nerve wracking this must be for her.

"No." Nora immediately disagreed, her hands darting up to cup his face as if she feared he would leave her. She might have been afraid, but she didn't want him to stop. She couldn't let physical affection be ruined for her forever.

"Jโ€“just...please be careful?" She asked a little fearfully, the past the culprit as it played in the back of her mind.

"I promise, my sweet girl, you will feel no pain." Aro assured softly. He wanted this so badly, but if she couldn't handle it he'd happily end this now.

Nora relaxed then at his honesty, at his promise, and she let him know how much she appreciated him by hitching a leg over his hip, a position which showed him she was ready and unwilling to give in to her fear.

Nora bit her lip, anxiety plain on her face when she felt Aro position himself at her entrance...and then he started to gradually ease himself inside of her.

And fuck, he had been wrong. It did hurt.

It stung, only slightly, as she stretched to accommodate his rather girthy size and instinctually she wound her arms back around him for comfort, her face hidden in his neck, trying to focus on anything else. Just feeling his cold skin against hers, his murmurs of praise and encouragement and his heady smell, made Nora unclench her stiff muscles.

"Ah, my Nora." Aro groaned, finally resting the entirety of himself fully inside of her. He was in complete ecstasy that he was the first to do this with her, that this was truly happening. "You feel so good...Sei cosรฌ stretta."

He moved, only slightly, to place kisses from her warm cheeks to the already bruising marks on her neck as he let her adjust, feeling the way her legs shook as she tried to get used to the discomforting twinge of the feeling of him inside of her. He was small in no means and she was pure. Pain, unfortunately, would be inescapable.

"Wrap your legs around me, darling. It will make it easier." He ordered, trying with all his might not to move yet, but she felt so fucking good and he was almost driven to the point of no return when she moved, her walls gripping him and coaxing him to give in to his urges.

Obediently, she listened and lifted her other leg to drape over his waist so she could give him more access. The new position allowed him to go deeper inside herโ€“God, she'd never felt...anything like this before.

Nora inhaled shakily at feeling so full and stretched. It was strange and uncomfortable, but Aro wasn't moving and true to his word, he was waiting for her to tell him it was alright. Her nerves wouldn't leave her even as she repeated the mantra in her head that she was fine, that she'd be okay.

It was only when the initial throbbing pain ebbed away slightly did she give the signal for him to do it with a soft whisper, her eyes truthful. "I'm ready."

Aro made sure to pull one of her arms from her death grip around his neck. Their intwined hands pushed back against the bed, her other hand twisting to get a hold of his hair. When he was satisfied she was okay, he moved.

Nora whined at the discomfort, squeezing the hand he had given her.

"It's alright, piccolo." He hushed her.

He pulled completely out, before he plunged back in just as quickly. Nora's eyes closed at the mixture of pleasure and pain. It felt amazing, but it hurt so much too. She wanted more in spite of the pain, so much more. Aro's thrusts were shallow and slow, knowing if he took her as overwhelmingly as he wanted he wouldn't be able to stop; but Nora didn't want him to. She wanted what he was so thoughtfully denying her.

He was being so careful, not to hurt her physically or mentally and from the look on his face, the languid and considerate pace was extremely difficult for him.

Nora felt something change in her then, watchingย  him struggle. Her fear and her slight discomfort were all forgotten.

Determinedly, she surged upwards and captured his lips in time with a well placed, deep thrust that had her crying out his name against his mouth, her eyes screwed shut when she broke away and collapsed back against the bed. His attention solely on her at the musical noise, she strained to nod encouragingly up at him, her chest heaving up and down only making her small breasts look mesmerizing to him.

"You can go faster, Aro. I can take it." She promised weakly, her legs tightening around his waist trying to make him do as she commanded.

Aro was doubtful and far from convinced, but her thoughts didn't lie. It was what she wanted and he groaned with delight that she was focused on him feeling good too. Even now, she was so considerate.

"Please, baby. I...I need you." She whispered.

That did it. Aro's face darkened and he wasted no time to acquiesce, his soft rhythm completely gone.

His hips started to snap against hers with ferocity and now he was pounding into her, the need in her voice driving him into a frenzy, his control he so often admired was a distant memory. He would have felt awful if he couldn't hear how much satisfaction she was getting from him treating her so roughly.

Nora let out a melody of piercing cries, over and over again as his hips slammed against hers and his cock rammed into her ruthlessly. It might have hurt at first, but this was exactly what she wanted.

"Fuck, yes!" She was an uncontrollable mess of moans and pants as he fucked her with a brutal amount of force, her legs locked around his hips to push him as deep as he could go.

Nora had never felt so good, so euphoric in all of her life and that only got better as his hand left hers to sporadically rub her clit just as roughly as he was fucking her, her pleasure spiralling.

Her hands tangled in his hair tugged and pulled incessantly, her head thrown back in senseless pleasure that was only made more potent by the lewd noise of skin slapping against skin, of lustful growls and moans echoing in the room.

He hit that same spot in her, the one that had nearly made her crumble when he'd taunted her with his fingers. When she let out a high pitched keen as his cock ground against it Aro grinned lazily with satisfaction and focused solely on keeping his thrusts there, rocking into her until Nora forgot everything that wasn't him, just like he had said she would.

The way they were holding one another by this point would have been painful for her if they were both not completely and utterly immersed in one another.

"You're mine, Nora. My bella ragazza." He snarled possessively, the sheets beneath his balancing hand tearing as her tight cunt squeezed and fluttered around him. He laughed breathily, watching her writhe and pull at him to come close to her more fervently, her nails raking harshly against his scalp.

It seemed she liked that...to be called his.

He was so quick, so aggressively imposing and powerful and just...glorious, like some wild, untamed animal and fuck, when he had claimed her with words as well as his body, she could have lost it right then and there.

Nora felt that satisfying feeling of completion creeping up on her once more and remembering his warning, his demand, Nora looked up into Aro's wild eyes that hadn't left her face and shamelessly begged. If she did not, he'd only refuse her and she couldn't take that again.

"Please, baby." She yelped and let a hand fall to clutch at his defined bicep as he responded to her plea's with a particularly hard and approving slam of his cock impossibly deep inside of her.

"Iโ€“I'm...I'm gonnaโ€“" Aro smirked, pleased she had listened to his warning, his own unnecessary breathing ragged as he felt her beggining to clench exquisitely around him.

"Let go for me, piccolo." He crooned and with that she came undone with a loud cry of his name, her eyes shut tightly and her mouth agape as she panted for breath and arched her body into his, a flush of heat rippling through her trembling body. She revelled in her climax but hissed out a sudden whine of shock and mild pain when Aro only seemed to go harder as he felt the wetness of her arousal spilling over his cock.

"Aโ€“Aro! fuck!" Nora quivered and could only succumb to him as he brutally ravaged her.

She was in so much overstimulation as he continued to thrust into her and abuse her sensitive clit, that tears actually glimmered in her eyes as a second agonizingly pleasurable wave washed over her. Just the sight of her so unravelled, writhing in sweet bliss beneath him by his own hand had him spilling himself inside of her with a vicious snarl, his hips stuttering to a stop, his brow pressed to hers.

They could have laid there for minutes or hours, neither knew. All they could focus on was one another. Nora was clinging to him hopelessly as she struggled to regain her breath and Aro doubted she'd ever let him go.

He finally managed to wake up from the high of claiming her, at last, when her legs began to tremble from presumed exhaustion. He started to pull out of her with his thoughts solely focused on taking care of her but, he was surprised however when Nora wouldn't removed her legs from around him.

He looked down at her, her face and neck flushed red, her eyes lazily blinking up at him. "Dolcezza, I need toโ€“"

"No!"

"No?" He repeated, confused when she wouldn't let go of his arm, either.

She tilted her head and placed a kiss on his wrist, her voice sturdy and unrelenting and still as thick with need as it had been before they even started.

"I...I still want you, Aro." He shuddered then as he felt her arousal heighten.

Immediately, he could have resumed fucking her so fiercely that the only two things filling her mind would be his name and the complete control he had over her, but she was human and she was tired and he was sureย  she most likely didn't even know what she was saying.

Aro held his breath, knowing if he smelt how much she hungered for him he would loose control once again. "Nora, I can'tโ€“"

She cut him off before he could finish speaking and rocked her hips against his erect cock still buried inside of her. Aro ripped the covers to pieces in his effort not to give in.

"Nora, if you do not stop..." He didn't need to finish his warning. They could both feel it was a losing battle and with each little movement from her she was only edging him further and further away from the limits of his control.

"I don't want to stop, Aro. What I do wantโ€“what I...long for is you, just...please?"ย  She was whining, moaning enticingly with every grind of her hips against him. The tension between them rose as they stared at one another before Aro just couldn't take it anymore. Who was he to deny her what they both so vastly craved?

"As you wish, my love."

It was safe to say, by the time they were done and the sun rose over the waking city, Nora had definitely forgiven him.
