56 I WANT TO TRY SOMETHING
Placing his palms on her cheeks, Torak said, "You are beautiful my angel, do you know that?" in a deep voice while looking straight at his mate's beautiful black eyes.
Raine's low self confidence had been bothering Torak, she was the most beautiful creature that he had ever seen, not because she was his mate, but because she was indeed a beauty, adorable and the aura that came from her was so genuine.
He liked her wholly.
Raine could feel her cheeks heat up, suddenly she was confused where she had to lay her eyes on?under Torak's intense stared, so she chose to look on his chin, but this gave her free access to stare at his sexy lips the moment he talked.
"I want you to know that." Torak caressed her cheeks with his thumb, stared down at her, savoring every inch of her charm.
"May I try something?" He asked softly.
Raine was lightheaded with Torak's enchanting voice, she didn't even know what Torak wanted to try, but she nodded anyway.
Torak leaned over very slowly as if he was asking permission to move closer. His warm breath brushed against her skin. The tranquility that followed and the quietness seemed to force her to close her eyes and relished the proximity between them.
Then ever so gently, Torak pressed his soft lips against hers.
The sparks that erupted between them gave them a thrill. The feeling was surreal. It felt like there were millions of butterflies on her stomach alive and flickering through her veins. Her heart was beating so fast.
It felt like so natural for her to lean closer, let Torak bite her lips softly before he pulled away.
He rested his forehead against her. "What should I do to you my little angel…"
Raine didn't even hear Torak's helpless whisper as she nibbled her own lips. Torak had just given her first kiss.
==============
Late at night.
The moment when the darkness engulfed her surroundings and Torak wrapped his arms protectively around her body, Raine's eyes wide awake.
She had just woken up and couldn't fall asleep again, as soon as her mind kicked in, the scene in the restaurant played again and this gave her a sudden urge to giggle.
When Raine was still in the orphanage, she often overheard girls around her age talking about their boyfriend, how their boyfriend treated them and how they got their first kiss. They would talk while giggling and whispering to each other.
At that time, Raine could only lower her head and looked at her shoes while sweeping the floor. Her life was so miserable and seemingly without any hope from getting better.
She believed their words, because what they said to her?was true and reasonable, but it was still hurt to know there would be no one who wanted her.
But, who would want a girl like her? Someone who couldn't even talk, and was able to see something that most of the people couldn't see? She was already half crazy with the last fact only.
Until she met him, on that fateful night, and everything changed.
She couldn't thank him enough to show up in her miserable life and became the knight with shining armor for her…
Raine turned to look at Torak's sleeping face, he was fast asleep and looked less cruel than how he appeared during the commotion in the meeting room earlier that day. She couldn't forsake his livid image at that time.
But deep down her heart, Raine knew that Torak did all of that to ensure her safety and that gave her a warm feeling. He was angry at all of them for her sake.
He was the first person who did something remarkable for her sake genuinely after her long nightmares–like–life.
And Raine wanted to do something for him too…
