"Ah!" She yelped when she suddenly felt his body slide over her back and his semi-hard on land between her buttock cheeks. 

Fear erupted inside her as he cast his shadow over her. 

"Until when are you going to pretend and hide from me, my pearl?" His husky voice drew out close to her ear as he bit on top of her ear. 

Instinctively she bit her lips, feeling pleasure beginning to rise in her body. 

"Pearl." He licked the bite mark before kissing her neck, moving down to her shoulder and back, leaving small love bites in his wake. 

Noticing she had failed to cover herself in front of him, she attempted to do so but stopped halfway and let her hands down when he gave his order. "Stop hiding from me. I want to see you and touch you." She exhaled sharply. "Why do you keep on running?"

"Y-you…" She hesitated but when he covered her left breast with his hand, giving a light squeeze, she moaned forgetting it all. 

"Tell me." His lips found her neck once more, leaving Pearl weak from the pleasure.

"You said not to touch you," she managed to let out. He chuckled lightly and turned her in his arms so she was facing him.

"I did, so?"

"You…"

He captured her lips, kissing her deeply before giving her a chance to catch her breath. "I did for your good."
