FROST AND FLAME

The tension between them had simmered for too long, neither Sabi nor Levi could resist any longer. As the rain outside poured in heavy sheets, the sound of thunder rolling in the distance only heightened the storm brewing between them.

After Sabi's whispered confession at the gate, Levi hadn't let her go. His fingers stayed wrapped around hers as they walked back into the palace. Despite the rain and the thunderous noise, Sabi could feel his warmth and hear his heart race. Her heart was racing also, she feared they could be caught by someone, perhaps one of the servants of even Paris.

When they reached his chambers, Levi pushed the door open with a quiet determination, leading her inside. Sabi hesitated for just a moment, her heart pounding so loudly she was certain he could hear it. But the warmth of his hand, steady and firm, anchored her in place.

Levi shut the door softly, his back against it as he turned to face her. The dim glow of the fireplace cast flickering shadows across his sharp features, making his eyes burn with an intensity that sent shivers down her spine.

"Sabi," he began, his voice husky, laced with emotion. "If you stay, there's no turning back."

Her breath hitched. She looked at him, her eyes searching his face for any sign of doubt, but there was none. Only desire, raw and unapologetic. She stepped closer, her resolve melting away under his gaze.

"I've already made my choice," she whispered, her voice trembling but sure.

She never thought she would be able to make a move in a situation like this, considering the fact that she had never gotten down with any man, she was indeed wild.

That was all Levi needed. In two strides, he closed the distance between them, his hands gently cradling her face as his lips found hers. The kiss was soft at first, exploratory, as if both were testing the boundaries of this fragile new reality. But it didn't take long for the dam to break.

Levi's hands moved to her waist, pulling her closer until there wasn't an inch of space between them. Sabi's fingers tangled in his hair, her body responding instinctively to the heat radiating from him. The kiss deepened, their breaths mingling as the world outside faded into nothingness.

Levi broke the kiss, his lips trailing down her jawline to the sensitive curve of her neck. Sabi gasped, her head tilting back to give him better access. Her skin burned where his lips touched, leaving a trail of fire in their wake.

"I've always dreamt of this, yearned for you," he murmured against her neck, his voice thick with longing. "I've tried to stay away, to keep my distance, but I can't."

Sabi's heart ached at his confession, a mix of guilt and exhilaration flooding her. "Levi..." she breathed, her hands sliding down to rest on his chest. She could feel the rapid thrum of his heartbeat beneath her palm, matching her own.

He leaned back, his eyes locking onto hers. "Tell me to stop," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "If this isn't what you want, tell me now."

Sabi shook her head, her eyes glistening with tears. "I don't want you to stop," she admitted, her voice trembling with honesty. "I want this... I want you."

Levi groaned softly, like her words turned him on the more, his restraint snapping like a taut string. His penis grew wild, begging to be released from the capture of his trousers. He captured her lips again, this time with a hunger that left no room for hesitation. His hands roamed her back, tracing the curve of her spine as he guided her toward the bed.

Sabi's pulse quickened as she felt the cool silk sheets against the back of her legs. Levi paused, his hands framing her face as he studied her expression. "I've never done this before" she whispers softly.

Levi paused for a while. "You're beautiful," he said, his voice filled with awe. "I don't deserve you."

Sabi shook her head, tears slipping down her cheeks. "You don't have to be perfect," she whispered, her hands gripping his shirt. "Just don't break my heart."

His lips found hers again, answering her plea without words. Their bodies moved in unison, each touch igniting a spark that threatened to consume them both.

He unraveled his zippers and Sabi's eyes caught his penis. She gasps as she held onto it, and started stroking. This made Levi groan and gave way for her to do what he felt she wanted to do.

She knelt before him and worshipped his penis with her mouth. Levi almost doubted that she had never done it before.

The excitement and eagerness to penetrate her was so strong, he lifted her up on her feet, lay her gently on the bed, and gently undressed her.

In less than seconds, he found his way into her. Sabi screamed as he penetrated, a mixture of pleasure and pain for the first few penetrations till she was more comfortable with him in her.

Outside, the storm raged on, but within the walls of Levi's chambers, a different kind of tempest swirled. It was reckless, raw, and dangerously intoxicating, a bond that neither of them could deny, no matter the consequences.
