I AM SO SORRY!

Guys, I can't even tell you how sorry I am, because of the lack of update. During summer I worked and now, I am dealing with the university. Again. I usually spend 12 hours at there and after I get home, I don't have any energy. I AM SO SORRY!

When I had time, I always wrote a little and now finally I finished the new chapter. It's longer then usually, but it's a compensation for the long time.

WARNING: This chapter contains LEMON! And as usually, not correct English sentences.


When I had heard Teach's voice…. I can't describe what I felt: fury, rage, hate, despite… You can choose. But at that moment the most important was that I needed to stay away from him as long as possible, but keep an eye on him. Well, my only one eye. Lucas and Matt hadn't gone close to him either and I couldn't say Marco didn't notice the fact.


„Is something wrong with Teach, yoi?" he asked after a month.

„No, why do you ask?" I answered as I was tidying my room. Not the best activity, but there wasn't any other thing to do.

„Beside the introduction, you three don't say anything to him."

„And?"

„Why can't you just tell me the truth, yoi?"

„I never believed in the 'hate at the first sight', but life proved me wrong" and that wasn't even a lie.

Marco became very suspicious at that time, but he tried to cover it. I hated myself and I spoke about it with my brothers, but they both had said that it was the best way and he will understand when we will tell the truth. They could be right, but when I was alone, the guilt was so much, I almost split it out to him a few times. I loved him so much, but I knew it was for them, to keep them safe.

I sighed because he was silent and when I turned around, I saw he was deep in thoughts. I walked up to him and cupped his handsome face in my hands.

„Listen to me, Mr. Very Handsome First Commander; for once in the life, please let someone else handle the situation. You will know everything in the right time. Trust me, please?"

He watched me with an unreadable expression, but he spoke up.

„I have a feeling with this case, yoi. And it says someone will hurt you" his voice was dark, but it sure gave me chills and the good kind of chills.

„Don't worry about me. I am a big girl, I can protect myself" I pouted and the next thing I knew, he buried his head into my neck.

„Big girl, huh, yoi?" with that he began to kiss my neck and he didn't need too much time to reach that spot which made my body weak.

His hands travelled up on my skin, under my shirt, caressing me gently, but excitingly. My mind was covered with clouds and I knew that only he could put me in such a state that fast. I took a deep breath and began to roam on his body, but I was missing something.

„Marco" I breathed and he grunted in response. „Kiss me?"

He stopped and looked into my eye.

„You are doing this on purpose, yoi."

„What?"

„Your voice… it's like you desperately want me to have my way with you, yoi" he growled, my face red because of his words.

I wanted to say something, but we crewmates were so good at timing, that they burst through my door. I saw Marco tried to keep himself calm, but failed.

„Can't you knock on that damn door, yoi?" asked the commander Thatch, Ace, Matt and Lucas.

„We can, but where is the fun in that?" came the reply from freckle-face.

„You might see something which is not for you" smirked the blonde.

„Hey!"

„What's the problem?" I asked the others, while the two were bickering.

„Nothing, we have just come to tell you we reached an island" answered Matt.

„Really?" my face lit up at the news and I looked up at Marco. „Are you on watch duty?"

„No" that was the answer I wanted to hear.

„Okay. I need to go into the town, alone. Don't follow me, because I'll kick your sorry asses if you do" with that I started to walk on the deck, but a voice stopped me.

„Well, well. Are you going somewhere, princess?"

„And you ask this because?" I gritted my teeth when I asked back.

„Come on! We are crewmates! You should be friendlier with me. Zehahahahaha!"

„I shouldn't do anything what you say, so leave me alone" I hissed.

„Don't think you can speak to me like that just because you are Marco's whore!"

My tail, ears, claws and fangs instantly appeared, ready to attack him.

„She isn't a whore, so shut your mouth" I heard a voice and when I looked to my right side, I saw Izo and Haruta. They seemed a little angry.

„He is right. Cat is Marco's partner, girlfriend, mate, you can choose. But she isn't his plaything" nodded Haruta.

„I apologize" said Teach in a mocking tone and walked away. Even he didn't dare to start a fight with one of the members. At least not at that time.

„I don't like him" muttered Izo.

„You are not the only one" I sighed.

„He is an asshole, but he is a member as well and a lot of people like him" said Haruta.

„I don't really care, unless he picks up a fight with me" I shrugged.

„True. Where are you going without your bodyguards?" grinned the female commander.

„Hey! They are not my bodyguards!" I pouted. „And I told them; I'll go into the town and I don't want them to follow me."

„What do you want to do there?" asked Izo curiously and my face heated up.

„Well… hehe… you see… I just… I mean… I need to go!" I yelled and run away from them and the ship, I only stopped when they were out of my sight.

How could I say to them that I wanted to reserve a room at a hot spring? Yes, I planned that. Marco needed to relax, because he was tired. He didn't say and he acted like it wasn't a big deal, but looking after an entire crew (and the Whitebeard crew wasn't small) took out a lot of energy and he deserved a break, away from them.

I wandered around the town and my eye spotted a building.

„Perfect."

I went there and an old lady greeted me behind a desk. She was short and has grey hair, pulled into a bun, but her blue eyes were still full with life.

„Good afternoon, my dear. Can I help you?" she asked me when I entered.

„Good afternoon! Yes, I would like to ask if you have a room for a night."

„Of course! Like you see, there aren't a lot of people here, so we always have some free rooms. Will it be for you?"

„Yes, but I'll bring a partner, so I need a room for two."

„Single or double?" she asked with a little smile.

„I think one bed will be enough" I giggled.

„Can I ask for a name?"

„Cathleen Wild."

„I booked a room for you, so if you'll come back, it will be ready for you, with full access to the hot springs."

I thanked the old lady, who winked at me, knowing why I wanted a room with one bed. Though, I didn't plan anything, but to relax, even I didn't know how the night will end. It was the truth, we almost did it a few times, but someone always had disturbed us, much to our frustrations.

I walked back to the ship, thinking about our relationship with the blonde. He was very, very protective. When a man had looked at me too long for his taste, a glare from him was enough to scare the poor man away. If he hadn't stared, than the public affection was still there; a passionate kiss, a mark on my neck, whisper into my ear, causing me to blush, things like that. The new crew members had learnt to don't mess with me or try to flirt, because he would give them cleaning or watch duty, which wasn't very nice. Although, I wasn't better. Sometimes I picked up fights with other women, because they tried to flirt with him. There was one special case…


Flashback

„A bar again?" I sighed when we arrived.

„Come on, sis! You like bars!" grinned Lucas.

„No, not really" I murmured. „Though, I met with Killer in one" I grinned.

„…" I felt Marco's aura turned into a scary one.

„We weren't together and if I remember correctly, you had sex with a chick, so don't pout" I said, not even looking at him.

„As I said, I was frustrated, yoi."

„Still not an excuse."

We sat down at a table, Marco immediately pulled my chair closer to him.

„It's like you keep her on a leash or something like that" told us Haruta.

„What? He is not!" I protested.

„You don't even know the half of it, yoi" smirked Marco.

„I am not some animal which you keep on a leash or command to it! I am a damn human!" I said frowning. „Think about it" I spat and stood up to order a drink. I needed that to calm down.

I hadn't been away more than five minutes, but when I turned around, a chick had sat down on my chair, next to Marco. She had long, blonde hair, honey coloured eyes, with long lashes, deep red lips, big boobs, and long legs. She giggled at Marco, who looked unamused and the others were watching my reaction.

I walked up to them and poured my drink on her head.

„What the hell? Are you crazy, bitch?" she screamed.

„Sorry. You seemed to be in heat, I thought you might want to cool down" I said in a monotone voice.

„Can't you see I am with someone?" she nodded at Marco.

„You are with him?"

„Problem?"

„Well, I have some. He is mine and I don't take responsibility if I'll do something with you, if you won't back off."

„You? With him?" she laughed hysterically. „Please. You seem like you can't even kiss someone and you are with him? Back off, little girl."

„I warned you" I sighed and grabbed her hair, yanked off of my chair. „It's my place, but I'll show you something. Watch, bitch" with that I straddled Marco and put my hand on his face, crashing my lips on his. Instantly, his hands landed on my hip, yanking me closer. At that time I was the one who forced my tongue into his mouth, exploring the familiar area. I slid one of my hands behind his neck, pushing Marco closer to me. Our chest touched, my other hand scratching his skin lightly.

But because of the need of air we separated, panting a little. I turned my head to the woman, licking my lips.

„You can back off anytime" I smirked and sat back in my chair again.


After that everyone said that I was just as possessive as Marco. I smiled at the memory and noticed that I got back to the ship. Right, how should I tell him-?

„Where were you, yoi?" speak of the devil.

„Hy Marco" I chirped and he raised a brow.

„What's the matter?"

„Nothing. Are you free tonight?"

„Yeah, why?"

„Great!" I grabbed his hand and dragged him away. „He won't be on the ship tonight!" I shouted up, hoping somebody will hear it.

„Where are you dragging me?" asked Marco calmly.

„Surprise! Anyway, I hope you will like it. I was thinking about it quite some time" I told him.

„Okay, I am curious now, yoi."

We arrived at the hot spring and the old lady winked at me again.

„Your room is ready and feel free to use anything what you need."

„Thank you" I took the key from her and the funny thing was that our key number was 1. „Look, we got the number 1 key" I chuckled and Marco smiled at me.

I opened the door and a nice little room had come into my sight. In front of us there was a huge bed with a small night table next to it, a wardrobe, a desk with a chair and a door on the left side of the room-probably the bathroom's door.

„Why?" asked Marco.

„You are stressed. You need a break away from them and I am more than happy to keep you company, but I can leave you alone. You can choose" I turned to him, but his arms already caged me.

„Don't go, yoi. You don't even know how much that means to me" he sighed. He looked extremely tired.

„You deserve it" I whispered and gave him a light peck. „Come on, I want to try the hot spring."

He chuckled and after we arrived to the dressing-rooms, we separated. I was a little nervous, because he will be able to see my tattoo of him. And of course, because I will be naked under a towel. It took a little time to gain some courage to walk out the bath and when I did it, a half-naked Marco was sitting in front of me, with his back turned to me.

„You sure took your time, yoi" I knew he was smirking and when he turned around, there was that smirk.

„Y-yeah" I blushed and went closer to him.

„Are you okay?"

„Uh-huh" I nodded and stepped into the water. „It's so hot!" I yelled hissing.

„They don't call it 'hot-springs' for nothing" he smirked.

„Smartass" I muttered as I slid into the water, trying to hide my back.

„Why are you so far? Are you afraid, yoi?" asked Marco.

„N-no" damn it. I stuttered again, but then again I sat closer to him and he sneaked his arm around my waist, pulling me closer.

As the tense left my body, my breathing became calmer and I rested my head on his shoulder.

We were sitting in silence, enjoying our time without the others.

„How about I wash your back?" I asked whispering, not wanting to wake him up if he were sleeping.

„Sometimes I think you read my mind" he said wide awake.

I grabbed a sponge and after he turned around, I have begun to rub his skin. I could feel his hard muscles in his back and I had to say, it was enjoyable. He let out some grunts of satisfaction and I was happy, knowing he enjoyed it. I continue to rub his back for a good 30 minutes and after that, I put down the sponge and my hands returned to massage his hard muscles.

„That feels good" he murmured.

„Glad to help" I chuckled and kept on massaging, but he had enough because he turned back to me.

Without a word, he stood up and picked me up into his arms in bridal-style. I let out a gasp from the sudden move, but didn't protest. He brought me back to our room and gently let me down to stay on my foot.

„Marco? What-" I couldn't finish it, because his lips were on mine, catching them in a passionate kiss.

I shuddered between his arms and I put my own around his neck, pushing my body against him.

„We are alone, yoi."

„Yes" I sighed.

„Nobody will interrupt us" he growled as he peppered my neck with kisses.

„No."

„That's what I wanted to hear" said Marco and pulled me back to a rough kiss.

Our teeth clashed, our tongues were fighting for dominance, but the kiss slowed down and turned into a passionate one.

„Marco" I breathed heavily as we pulled apart to breath.

„Cat" he panted. „Do you feel what you are doing to me, yoi?" he whispered into my ear as he grinded his hips against me.

I felt his half-hard cock pressed against me, making my body hotter than already. His hands were grasping my hips, but one of his hands went up to my hair and pulled it gently back to expose my neck to him. He lowered his head to there and nipped at my skin. I shuddered at the feeling and caressed his upper body. I couldn't think straight, the pleasure was too much and it was only the foreplay.

I didn't even notice that we moved until my back hit the bed. He was above me, watching my expression.

„Please" I whispered as I looked at his dilated eyes.

I didn't need to tell him twice. He kissed me again, his hands roaming on my body, but he didn't take off the towel of me. The fire was already burning in me; I desperately wanted him on me, to feel his skin, his weight, and his kisses.

I had enough and took the action. I tore off the towel, throwing it somewhere in the room.

Marco raised an eyebrow as he watched the scene with a smirk.

„Tease" I huffed, but I gasped as he palmed my breasts.

„They perfectly fit in my hand, yoi" he announced satisfied. „Like you were made for me."

„Yes" I purred and as my hips lifted to his own, he let out a low growl.

„Patience."

„I can't, I want you too much, please Marco" I practically begged to him, but he decided to ignore my plea.

Once again, his lips were on my neck, sucking and licking the skin there, claiming to the others that I was his. After he was pleased with the marks, he went down, until he reached my breasts. He wasn't satisfied with the touching, he licked and playfully bit down. I arched my back to feel his lips more and he complied. Marco slowly, playfully nipped at my nipple, making me gasp and then sucked on it. I moaned loudly at the feeling and lifted my arm to my mouth to turn down my noises.

„I want to hear you."

I shook my head, not trusting in my voice.

„I want to hear how much pleasure I can give to you. I want to hear every moan, every gasp, every word, you" he murmured into my skin.

„Marco!"

„And of course I want to hear my name from your mouth" he grinned confidently.

I couldn't answer. He overwhelmed me in a way nobody had done before. I felt so powerless, but I also felt safe around him. I grabbed his face and kissed him hard. I had enough of his teasing; I felt how wet was I am and I wanted to show him too.

I took one of his hands and put it to my womanhood.

„And can you feel it what are you doing to me?" but the other things I wanted to say stuck in my throat when I felt his finger at my entrance.

Marco pressed that finger inside me and I let out a shaky breath as he began to move it in and out. After a while, he added one more finger, scissoring them.

„You feel so tight" he said as he kissed me gently.

„I-I-ah! Marco, please! I can't take it anymore! I have to feel you inside me" I was on the edge of tears.

I couldn't bear the sensation. Was it because I was in love with him? Was it because he made my heart beat faster? I didn't know, I only wanted him, to make love to me.

He opened my legs wider and finally took off that towel. His cock stood proudly and stiffly and I began to worry. He wasn't enormous, no, but he was indeed big and long.

„What's wrong?" he asked.

„Nothing…it's just, you are so big and it was really a long time ago, since…" I didn't finish it, because I didn't have to.

„That's good to hear" he smiled. „Don't worry, wildcat, I won't hurt you."

I knew that, but hearing it relaxed me a little.

He lowered his hips to mine and I felt his hardness. He rubbed his cock against my clit, lubricating it in my wetness. It sent waves of pleasure through my body and that was exactly what he wanted.

„Do you feel how hard I am? You did this to me every time when we were alone and I got close have you, but every time someone interrupted. Less than a minute, I will be inside you" he said huskily.

„Yes! Please!" I nearly screamed.

He guided his cock to my entrance and slowly started to push in. I moaned at the feeling, wanting him to go deeper. I lifted my hips up a little and he slid in a little faster, but suddenly my eyes went wide as he reached that point where nobody was further.

„Relax" he murmured into my ear.

His deep voice soothed my nerves and he could slid in to the hilt. We both moaned; he filled me up completely. He started to thrust in slow motion and my hands roamed on his body. I grabbed everything I could. His hair, his shoulders, his back, his ass. It was amazing how he moved and I lifted my hips to meet his thrusts.

„Fuck… you feel so good" he growled into my mouth.

„M-Marco!"

„Yes, say my name!"

I repeated his name over and over again, until I screamed out as he hit the right spot inside me.

„There! Again!"

He complied and I felt something building up in me. I moaned and gasped shamelessly, repeating Marco's name.

When one of his fingers started to rub my clit, I nearly lost my mind. The pleasure only grew in me to the point where I couldn't bear it anymore.

With one hard thrust, he hit the spot again and I lost. I screamed his name and my inner muscles clenched around his member. The pleasure crashed down on me and through my ecstasy, I could feel he tensed and released inside me.

He laid on the top of me, but his weight was welcoming. He panted into my neck and I tried to catch my breath.

„Are you okay, yoi?" he murmured.

„I am doing great" I smiled as I caressed his head. „Thank you."

„Anytime" I could tell he was smirking and I laughed a little.

He rolled off of me and pulled me close to him.

„I should thank you, not the other way" he said as he peppered my face with kisses.

„Marco?"

„Yes?"

„I love you."


So. I know. It's a lame lemon scene, but that was all I could do for now. Sorry :( But, Cat finally admitted her love to Marco! Yay! ^-^

And thank you everybody who favorited and followed my story. In the next chapter I will write down every name, who did that since the last chapter. Please tell me your opinion!

Thank you again! Love ya all! ^^
