Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0166

I am shocked by Asher's sudden shift in personality. I am ready to send a search party out for the dark, mean and moody Beta I had so often encountered as he playfully teased me, taking my hands away from my face as I tried to hide my embarrassment at my own words. I had spoken without thinking, but I had noticed that seemed to be happening more and more lately when I was around him...

Though this time I had truly embarrassed myself... and was desperate for him not to be looking at me. Hearing him laughing was bad enough. He had my hands almost pinned either side of my head, and my whole body felt alive to his touch right now as he looked down at me. "Oh no, I don't think we will. I think I quite like the naughty side of you." he murmured, taking me by surprise, as his lips moved toward mine.

He was so gentle as his lips caressed mine, careful too, that his body was not pressing onto mine, but this suddenly felt an awful lot more intimate than it had when we were kissing outside... we were in my bed... maybe this was moving too fast... but it felt good...

I ran my hand through his hair, pulling him a little closer to me, allowing him to deepen the kiss. His tongue finding mine once more. I felt the urgency within our kissing shift, as Asher teased at my lips and tongue with his own, sending a shiver of pleasure throughout my body. I don't think I had realized I had wanted him like this...

I lowered my hand to slip it under his shirt, he gasped at the touch of my hand upon his hard abs, as my fingertips gently traced the warm skin underneath. Asher's body tensed under my touch, as he moaned, before pulling away from me, sitting himself up suddenly. He looked awkward. "I think we should stop." He whispered, awkwardly chewing his lower lip, seeming to avoid my gaze.

What had happened? His touch had felt so good... I am not sure that I had wanted him to stop... I know that is wrong. This was all so fast... but it felt right. It felt good...

"Okay." I nodded, sitting myself up, pulling down my tank top that had begun to ride up.
