Chapter 9: The First Time.
By the time we left for home, I was glad I had not confided in Rob about Caius. Because the way he acted in the diner proved that I can't trust him. I love Caius and I trust him. How could I have considered betraying Caius?
At the end, Rob insisted on carrying everything in without any of my help. His way of impressing me no doubt. Cindy invited him to stay afterward. I was certainly not pleased; Caius would be coming down soon and Rob would be in the way.
During dinner I said little because I was so angry with Rob. I hope my rudeness would make him want to leave after dinner, but no. He even had a second helping of pie. Dad had the nerve to ask Rob to stay and meet Caius, the very thing I dreaded.
After Cindy took an unwilling Mikey to bed, dad led Rob into the living room.
''Caius is an interesting sort of man, ''he was saying, ''I think you will like him. ''
When Caius came downstairs dad introduced Rob. Caius shook his hand politely and smiled, but Rob seemed intimidated and unsure of himself.
Good. I inwardly thought with satisfaction. Rob was a clumsy awkward boy in faded jeans and a bulky T shirt and Plaid shirt. Feet enormous in scuffed work boots, his hair curly and untidy. His cheeks red as a child's.
''Bob showed me these, ''Caius said, making an effort to put Robbie at ease. ''And you are exceptionally talented.''
Rob mumbled his thanks and came to sit by me. As Rob got comfortable, I notice Caius's eyes darkening then he sat back in his own chair disappearing into the shadows.
Caius asked about formal training and where he intended to study. What he hoped to be when he was graduated. His interest in Rob made me a bit jealous because I sat there forgotten.
Rob stumbled through his answers and tried to answer intelligently. But it was obvious he didn't enjoy being the center of attention. Finally, he got to his feet. ''I told grandmother I'd be home by ten. She doesn't want me to be late.''
He edged towards the exit, but his eyes lingered on me. I had a feeling he wished me to walk him out. Quick to pick up on things, Cindy said, '' Show Robbie where his jacket is, Raina. ''
Not wanting to leave Caius's presence, I reluctantly led Robbie out of the cozy living room to the cold dark Hall. Behind me dad was saying something witty and Caius laughed, and I was missing it.
I quickly pulled Rob's jacket out of the cluttered closet and handed it to him. He took it wordlessly and stood there a moment as if he were struggling with a decision.
''I don't like him, ''he said at last.
How can you say that, Caius paid you special attention, he encourages you to continue your work. Was even interested in seeing more of it. Even praised your work. ''
Rob shook his head. ''He didn't mean a word he said. His tone was not genuine, Raina. ''
I Clicked my tongue. ''You're as bad as Mikey. ''
''People say kids and animals are best judge of character, ''Rob said.
''Don't be silly. Everybody knows animals are not to be trusted. Dogs attacked children. ''
Rob sighed and zipped up his coat. ''Maybe I'm just jealous, ''he said without looking at me then opened the door and vanished into the night.
For a moment I stared at the closed door in my face. There was a time I would have loved to have a boyfriend like Robbie Lawrence. But that was before Caius.
When I return into the living room, Caius smiled at me from the rim of his glass. ''What a pleasure to meet such a talented young man and so handsome too. ''
I didn't even look at him. What now, two jealous men? I bet Cindy concocted some sort of romance between me and Rob. Caius need not worry I have no interest in such a boy. Maybe that's what they were laughing at.
When Caius got up, as he ascended the stairs, he stared at me. He paused, considering me a moment, and then smiled. ''Goodnight, Raina. ''
I waited until dad and Cindy went up to bed then I closed my book and blew out my candle and went to my room.
Caius came to my window that night and the next night. Night after night, he led me for a romantic romp out in the snow. Although I wanted to know more about him, he had a way of avoiding the conversation by focusing on me. He drew every sorrow from my heart, every pain, he never grew tired of hearing my woes about my family problems.
The more I talked, the angrier I became about my parents. Even I was resentful with Cindy and Mikey. I knew instinctively I was a loner that's why I loved Caius so much. He was like me; we keep to ourselves. Caius was the only one to understand me. The only one to listen and cared how I felt. He comforted me with his tender words and sweet kisses.
One night, Caius came to my door. I heard him tiptoe downstairs. Sometime passed midnight. Stormy jumped down and darted under my bed.
''Raina, it's me, let me in. ''He called softly from behind the door.
Dressed only in my best silk nightgown, I padded towards the door in anticipation. Was it too good to be true, was it really him? Or was it a cruel sweet dream only to tease me. But when I opened it, Caius stood there with a bottle of wine and two glasses in hand. My breath hitched at the sight of him. He was dressed only in a black T shirt and jeans, and no shoes. His V Pennant glittered in the light of the lamp I had on. Outside snow fell and the wind howled.
''Caius? 'I asked.
''Yes, it's me, were you expecting someone else? ''He said teasing me.
I laughed and shook my head no. My cheeks were hot and pink.
''Rob, maybe? 'he went on and put the wine in glasses down on my desk next to my books.
''Never, all I want is you Caius ''I insisted
He smiled as he poured wine in the glasses. The red liquid swirled and swashed until the glass was full.
''Come, Raina, ''he said now sitting on the bed. He held out a glass towards me.
I haven't had a taste of wine since mother's wedding when I was only thirteen. It tasted fruity and so good, and it warmed my belly delightfully. No one cared then, everyone celebrated, and I was forgotten again. Now I suppose no one would care if I had a little. Besides Cindy was not my mother she had no right to tell me what to do. Dad was too worried about his book and Mikey to care if I had some. So why should I care?
I hesitated only once as he padded the empty place beside him. I moved almost tripping over my own feet. I took the offered glass from his slender white hand. I settled down beside him. I watched him take a small sip then placed the glass on the table beside of the bed. I raised my glass and looked into the red liquid. I studied the rich color before I took a drink. I smelled the sweet intoxicating fragrance and gulped it down in one shot.
''Whoa, my darling, '' he said taking the empty glass from my hands. ''That will do.''
The wine swirled in my belly warming my whole being, and making my cheeks go all aflame.
Caius's dark eyes grew impossibly darker as he sat back and eyed my Silk nightie. Its low v revealing my cleavage and plump breast. It was so cold in my room my nipples were hard, scraping painfully against the smooth surface of the garment. My heart began to pound rapidly as I saw him reach for me. As his hands gripped my bare flesh of my arm and electric pleasurable sensation caused me to gasp. Caius 's lips parted, and his soft cool breath breezed over my face. Astonishment graced his handsome features. He felt it to, this I knew.
I froze. The look on his face, one of a man in need, in lust. One of his hands brushed across my breast and the electric sensation entered my nipples and they promptly responded getting even harder.
''Very nice, Raina, ''he sighed softly, ''unbelievably beautiful. ''
I had to agree with his assessment. I did have nice breasts, high and firm a decent size for a young woman. To my delight, he started to stroke my breast, cupping them with gentle loving care. I just sat there looking at Caius, feeling hot all over now especially hot and low under my stomach.
Caius took ahold of my spaghetti straps and casually pulled them down as he smiled in my face. With a warm handsome smile, his head dipped low under my chin. I sighed as my exposed breasts were now covered by his cool lips. My head fell back as I moan softly. My hand flew into his blonde silky locks.
This was my first time, I never been touched and loved like this. If I could imagine what my first time would have been like. This would have been it.
''Good girl, ''he said pulling back. ''Now lay back on the bed for me, I want to worship you tonight.''
Good girl? I was hardly feeling like I was good with all the thoughts of him ravishing me making me go breathless with desire. As I obeyed him, He took that moment to strip his clothes. His body, like a swimmer's physique loomed over me as he kneeled between my spread legs. His bulging biceps accentuated by the firm grip he had on my quivering thighs.
Caius started rubbing my pussy, building up an arousal that had already started. I was breathing hard, hot, and ready, waiting for what was coming. I watched as Caius stroked the head of his cock back and forth along my slit, teasing me, making me wait.
''I know this is your first time and I will be very gentle, just stay still and do as I say. ''He directed.
''Please …Caius, 'I'm ready. 'My voice alien to my own ears.
It was Husky and wanton. I was coming undone with need. He lingered above me, his eyes, those Violet eyes, seemed to glow ever so slightly. Crawling forward, his cool sweet breath breezed over my face. My breath came out hot and fast contrary to his. This detail startled me. With the tip of his member inside of me I gave a small groan of relief when he started to push into me. I gasped from a slight pinch of pain.
Caius growled sensually and pulled out, disappearing between my legs. My fingers instinctively clawed into his scalp as he licked at my clit. His moans mixed with my cries of pleasure filled the room, as the winter storm raged outside.
After what seemed like forever, he lifted his head to peer at me above my heaving breasts. I noticed at the corner of this mouth where blood stains.
He rose and climbed over me again. blood? Was it mine? Noticing my quizzical brow, he smiled and wiped the remaining blood from his corner of his mouth with his finger and sucked on it.
''Virgin blood, the sweetest kind there is. ''He said with ecstasy.
''Caius? ''I questioned.
He said nothing but positioned himself at my opening once again. ''Mine. ''
With that he pushed into me a little more but not too rough. He swooped down and kiss me desperately. I matched his desire as I mirrored his movements. He began to rock in a gentle rhythm. Things were heating up rapidly. Caius pulled back and arched his back. He seemed to be struggling with what, I didn't know.
''Are you alright Caius? ''I ask with the worried expression.
He came back down and kiss me some more then looked into my eyes.
''I can never lose control with you, ever. ''He said placing his forehead to mine.
''You won't, I trust you. ''
''You shouldn't, but since you do, I will try to honor that trust and do my damn best not to hurt you.'' He said and with that he moved inside me once more.
Now that he started again, Caius got going steadily. He banged slowly but his size and strength brought me over the edge.
''Oh my God! ''I cried out.
''Yes, my love, ''he echoed.
Suddenly my walls of my channel spasm and I gashed my climax. He growled out and hissed as he raised his head to look at me.
''My turn. ''
We both went off with a bang at approximately the same time so I guess you can call it a tie. Our excitement level started coming down. He groaned as he softened inside me. He laid his head on mine as he relaxed his body. He waited for some time after his cock slipped out of my pussy, now limp and fulfilled.
He pulled back moment and smiled at me. I was just catching my breath, coming down from my high. I returned his smile that he took as a sign that I was alright. He sighed happily and rolled, pulling me on top of him.
''I did it, Raina. ''He said smiling into my hair as I laid my head on his pale chest.
''Yes Caius, it was wonderful. ''
I lay there throughout the night listening to the wind howl. The lonely sound continued into the night that sometimes sounded like a mournful cry. In Caius's arms, I drifted into a dreamless peaceful sleep.
