Chapter 25: Finally, My Kate

“Because I love you, Kate… I always have, and I always will. I never stopped loving you,” Carlos said, his grey eyes looking straight into her blue ones. Everything around Kate stilled. She could not believe her ears. Silence engulfed her, and all she could hear was her heart beating. ‘He loves me. All this time, he still loves me?’ Kate lazily stood up. She gasped, all while following Carlos’ gaze. “Kate,” softly Carlos said. “Say something.”

Seeing the worried look on his expression, Kate leaned closer, her hands crawling up to his chest. She said, “Carlos, I.” A heavy sigh left her lips before she clutched her hands against his shirt.

Then, abruptly, she tipped her toes and pulled Carlos down, her eyes closed unwittingly, and her lips crashed into his. She felt the tenderness of his lips, but just as she kissed him, she noticed how Carlos froze in his stance. She looked at him for half a second, studying his reaction. Before she knew it, however, Carlos captured her lips, his arms wrapped around her waist.

Kate felt chills down her spine, tasting Carlos’ lips for the very first time. It started with small and gentle pecks, with Carlos biting on her upper lip. She welcomed the warmth of his breath and the way his lips moistened her own.

With Carlos’ arms tightening around Kate’s waist, he lifted her from the floor and settled her to sit on the table. He did so, breaking off the kiss for only a second. Swiftly and with dreamy eyes, he returned to savor her lips, and Kate willingly accepted.

Kate’s hands slid to his neck, hinting how she equally wanted him. Carlos’ tongue easily slid inside her mouth, and their tongues danced. When Carlos’ kiss became demanding, she kissed back with the same passion. She did not care about her amateur kisses. Kate simply wanted Carlos and nothing more.

Finally, out of breath, Carlos pulled away, his forehead resting on Kate’s, his hand behind her neck. He repeatedly gathered air into his lungs before asking, “Do you want to… go inside?”

Kate nodded. She watched as Carlos heaved, his face turned a shade darker. Carlos helped her to the floor, and in the next, they walked briskly in silence, going past the living room and the mansion staircase until ultimately entering Carlos’ bedroom. When Carlos slammed the door shut, Kate walked up to him first, kissing him with the same fever as they did on the patio.

This time around, being within the four corners of Carlos’ bedroom, their kisses became louder. They took small steps while their lips remained locked and landed their bodies on the enormous bed, their frames bouncing as they fell. On the bed, Carlos took the lead, kissing Kate while on top of her. Kate merely kept him secured, her arms around him tightly. The couple did not know for how long they kissed, but when it was over, their lips numbed, and they swelled from all the lip biting they had done.

Carrying his weight, Carlos pulled back. He watched Kate blush beneath him, her eyes only manifesting adoration for him. Warmth spread through his chest, still in disbelief at how he was there, having kissed Kate. Plus, because it was Kate who kissed him first, Carlos was over the moon. He whispered, “Kate.”

Kate’s chest was huffing. Hearing him call her name, she went for another peck. Her eyes closed while she was at it.
