When His Strength And My Spirit Joined

Chapter 14 : Long Day, Painful Recovery :

Adrian's POV :

I woke up feeling very, very sore. I couldn't move my hips properly. Dimitri wasn't next to me and I was naked. I felt the urge to go to the bathroom but the pain I had was much stronger. I closed my eyes waiting for the pain to disappear but it didn't. I just felt a strong pair of arms holding me out of the bed. And his voice whispering to me. "Here, let me help." I just sighed resting my head on his bare wet chest.

"I'm pathetic." I murmured feeling sorry for myself.

"No, you're not." He told me. "You're my love and I'm going to spoil you as much as possible." I locked my arms around his neck feeling ashamed 'cause of my state. "I'm sorry I was too tough last night." He said while pushing the bathroom's door by his foot sounding guilty.

I just kept my mouth shut, I might cry 'cause of the humiliation I felt. He respected that and didn't add a thing while putting me down next to the toilet then giving me his back. He was in a towel only, I bet he just got out of the shower 'cause his hair was wet and messy. I emptied my bladder totally. Then he held me up to lift me down on the bed wrapping the sheets around my naked body. It was cold. Then he just spooned me from behind stroking my arm with his gentle fingers.

I closed my eyes waiting for something to change, to my negative feelings to change. But nothing changed and Dimitri stayed silent.

Awhile later he cleared his throat. I didn't move but he knew through the bond that I wasn't sleeping and that I was listening. "Are you mad at me, Adrian?!" I shook my head. Thinking that I was mad at my fragile self. Like he read my mind –of course he could- he pulled me closer to him. "I'm sorry. I'm such a stupid savage boyfriend."

I was shocked, that made me talk. "Why saying that?!"

"Because I don't deserve you. When you did it to me for the first time you helped me without making me feel bad also you healed me so I could move freely without feeling guilty for bothering you though you wouldn't complain. You made it easier for me, you did it the most gentle way, you wore a condom to be sure you wouldn't release in me so you wouldn't cause me any pain. I recovered fast and I was very happy. And now look at you, you're in pain 'cause of my roughness and savageness. I totally understand that. I wouldn't talk to myself if I were you."

"Shut up, okay." I told him turning around to face him. "It's not your fault."

He nodded. "Yes, it is. I'm such a barbarian caveman. I don't know why you love me?!"

"Dimitri Belikov, if you didn't shut the hell up I'll kick you away from the bed." I snapped at him. "It wasn't your fault. It's just me. I never thought that I'd be in such state. Or that I'd need awhile to recover from sex. And by the way it was the most amazing greatest love making I had ever shared with someone. So stop being an ass and stop regretting last night, 'cause I don't regret it. I'm grateful for it. Understood?!" I glared at him.

He nodded. "Can you at least show me these feelings instead of letting my think what I did wrong last night?!" He told me.

"Maybe if you were less of an ass." I told him with a smirk.

He kissed the tip of my nose. "I love you."

I pushed my body closer, tasting his lips more urgently then saying. "I love you too."

He kissed my forehead. "So are you tired so you want to have more sleep or are you more hungry that you want to have a lovely breakfast in the bed?!"

I smiled biting my lower lip. "Umm, I dunno.." And my cellphone rang. Dimitri handed it to me and I answered. It was Lissa. "Hey there, cousin."

"Adrian Ivashkov, where are you?!" Lissa asked me.

I laughed. "Gee cousin, I'm here, what's up?!"

"I mean we're at the Belikov's we thought we'd find you there. But you're not there." She told me and I bit my lower lip when Dimitri started messing with my hair.

"Well, obviously we're not there." I told her playfully.

"Yeah, that's why I'm calling. To check on the two of you." She told me.

"We're fine." I told her. "More than fine if I have to say myself."

"Jesus, Adrian. I don't need to hear that." She told me. "So you're okay?!"

"Yep, so okay." I told her and laughed.

"And let me guess, we're not meeting you today?!" She asked.

"Nope. We'll come back tomorrow as I suppose."

She sighed. "Okay, honey. Have a wonderful time and say hi to Dimitri for me."

"You get it." And I ended the call. "She's saying hi."

Dimitri shook his head with a smirk on his face. "You're a really bad boy."

I laughed. "And you really like it."

"And we're having breakfast in bed." He told me and I nodded.

"And you better feed me some good food." He nodded getting out of the bed to call the room service.

After he came back I was still in the bed –where I could be?!-. "Hey there."

I grinned but seductively. "Hey there, sexy Dhampir. Wanna come to have some quality time with your boyfriend."

He scanned me with a smirk. "Maybe!"

"Oh please I can see it in your aura." I told him.

He laughed. "I can read your thoughts" And he climbed the bed coming closer to me.

I laughed. "That's good so I don't have to repeat myself."

"Nope. You just have to let me do good things to you." He told me and I giggled to hide my flushed cheeks.

Dimitri pushed me to lie on my back and hovered over me. "Like what?!" I asked while tracing his back muscles.

"Umm, let me see." He said thoughtfully with a smirk, moving his fingertips gently downwards to trace my erection, I couldn't suppress my moans. "That's good, huh?!"

I pulled him to me to attack his lips murmuring. "Umm so good."

We were busy making out when someone interrupted us by knocking on the door. Dimitri tried to get up but I stopped him whimpering. "Nooo. I wanna kiss you."

He chuckled. "I wanna do more than that just let me open the door and bring the breakfast, okay?!"

I shook my head. "Nooo."

"Adrian, honey." I kept shaking my head. Dimitir finally sighed. "How about when I come back I'm going to have a very long conversation with your lovely little friend down there."

He said eyeing my hard erection. I bit my lower lip and let him go. He put on his clothes very fast and ran to the door. Then he came back again. He left the breakfast in the living room and I'd to laugh.

He smacked his forehead. "A second, okay?!" And he ran out, then came with the tray of breakfast. He put it on the corner of the bed and hovered back over me. "Hey there."

"I hate you." I told him.

He held his laugh back. "Why?!"

I wrapped my legs around his waist pulling him closer. "'Cause you're an ass for leaving me to bring the breakfast. And 'cause I love you. And my little friend down there doesn't want to talk to you."

He kept holding his laugh. "Why?!"

"'Cause you left." I told him with a shrug.

"But I came back, didn't I?!"

"Too late." I told him while pushing his messy hair away from his face. "You see when you left I made some kind of a deal with my little friend."

"And?!" He arched an eyebrow.

"And we found that you're guilty. So we've to punish you." I told him in a fake seriousness.

"Umm, really?!" He asked while kissing and nibbling my earlobe and my neck.

I nodded. "Yeah, my little friend was so angry that he decided that. He said you're making him lonely a lot lately."

"Oh, poor your little friend." He said with a fake sympathy.

I pouted. "Yeah. He really is."

"Why don't you let me try to talk to him?! Maybe I can fix something with him. He seems so lonely that I can't let him like that." He said tracing my appendage with his forefinger.

"Umm.." I thought about it, but before I could answer, Dimitri was tracing his way down and I'd to pull him up by his hair. If he got there I wouldn't be able to resist. It was hard enough that way. "Noo." I shook my head to him.

"Why?!" He asked me while kissing my neck and my collarbone.

"'Cause I said so." I teased him. "Besides, now I feel so hungry. You can't make love to a hungry me, believe me." I told him seriously.

"Oh, then I better feed you." He told me and I nodded.

He brought the tray closer to us and I looked at the food in front of me. I'd to attack it.

Dimitri laughed and instead of attacking his food like a normal person he took the honey and separated it on the back of my shoulder, I didn't see him doing it till it was too late.

"Dimitriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii." I grumbled at him.

He chuckled. "Relax. I'm having my breakfast only."

"Oh really, how's that?!" I snorted.

He chuckled again. "Like that." And simply like he was doing it every day to me he started licking the honey and I had to moan and groan. "Umm, you're delicious." He told me while I could feel his warm breath on my bare skin. His wet mouth and tongue tracing the honey on my shoulder. Then good things started happening.

And Dimitri invited my little friend to have some honey, Dimitri lick all the honey he put it on it. I cried in pleasure and moaned madly. He was killing me with every move and every way.

"Wow." I said after I took my breath, Dimitri worked me very good with that honey that I surely enjoyed it.

He kissed my lips. "You liked it."

"Surely. I love you." I cuddled closer to him as he embraced me tighter.

"I love you too." He whispered to me.

I nodded and yawned as I let sleep taking me away.

Okay, that day was painful and long, that I admitted it. But in other way it was amazing, it was good and it was delicious and candy. I'd as much of him till we were both exhausted. Of course I had have sex with him but nothing rough, nothing to union, no penetration. But I had a lot of making out and foreplay and tons and tons of flirting and spoiling.

Dimitri had held me everywhere. He'd taken the shower with me. He'd fed me. Everything.

I was in heaven and I didn't want to leave. But sadly the ring worked his magic and I was feeling better, not the let's do it again better, but the hey I can walk myself and do every day's things normally. So I was going to his family's home, but I'd have my conditions.

"Are you ready?!" He asked me while squatting in front of the couch. I was sitting on it.

"We're not leaving till you promise me several things." I told him with a pout and frown.

He arched an eyebrow. "Did I ever deny you something?!"

I shrugged. "You've to promise." I was in the gay boyfriend mood, it was a dirty mood.

He chuckled. "Okay baby boy, what shall I promise you?!" He said that while putting his hands on my thigh.

I shivered. "Noooooo. You can't do that or I'll go very horny to your family, it's not a good thing to watch."

He chuckled taking his hands off. "Okay." But I put them again. "Now it's okay?!" He gave me a smirk.

I shook my head. "No, but we're making quickie before we leave so I don't mind."

He smirked his sexy smirk and started squeezing my thigh. "So Lord Ivashkov, what are the things you want?!"

"Let me see." I moaned 'cause he was moving to my inner thigh. "I'm sleeping with you in the same room." I told him.

He nodded. "Sure." Oh god he was massaging my inner thigh so good.

"And.. ahh.. um." I moaned. "And we're sharing shower."

He nodded. "Sure a thing." He started undoing my belt then my jeans then unzipping it. I could feel my throbbing erection.

"And I want kisses, a lot of them and making out." He looked at me surprised. "Yes, you can't say no 'cause we're in the same house with your family. I've sexual needs." I was serious.

Dimitri chuckled and nodded. "Absolutely." And he took off my jeans then my boxers. "Hello there."

I grinned happily seeing that Dimitri really liked my little friend. "He's happy to see you."

Dimitri chuckled and bent closer to kiss it softly, I moaned. "Anything else before we move to the next subject."

I couldn't wait I just shook my head. "Umm.. I'll tell you when I remember."

He chuckled again before we went deep in our 'subject'.

So that was it.

Hope you like it,

AN : As for the recovery, I want to say that I don't know about that for a fact 'cause I'm a girl and never did such a thing but theoretically so no flame. But I thought that Adrian isn't used to pain so his tolerance to it would be different.

And the Boyfriend mood he talked about, well, I've more of it in the next chapters. And I promise to UD soon. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe.

Be happy safe and in love.
