What in the world has my girl this embarrassed? | reach out to take her hand. | don’t want her to be embarrassed or


    ufortable telling me anything. Ever. | want her to feelfortable sharing every part of her life with me. | certainly had no


    idea such a simple question would elicit this response from her and now I’m desperate to know what it is. In the past desperate


    to know what it is. In the past when I''ve used this as an ice breaker on dates, the answer | get is something like, ‘I got my first


    kiss at seven.‘ Or ‘I


    walked in on my parents having sex in the kitchen.‘ Silly things. Whatever this is, it’s important to Cara. And now | really, really


    want to know.


    She continues to look down at her napkin. “Promise that you won’t make fun of me?”


    | know | sound intense when | reply. “I would never!”


    Asoft smile breaks out across her face before she lifts her eyes to mine. “This is the first date I''ve ever been on.”


    I''m stunned. | blink. Once. Twice.


    How is this possible. She’s nearly 18. She’s a Guardian. She is known to have spent time with Liam, but she’s never been ona


    date? | thank the Goddess that | chose this restaurant as our first date. Her very first date ever.


    I can see myck of response has made her ufortable and she’s looking down again. | reach my hand under her chin and


    lift it up so she’s looking in my eyes. | lean in so our lips are barely touching. “I’m honored to be the first man to take you ona


    date. | don’t know how or why | got this lucky, but | don’t care. And | hope that this is one of many firsts that we get to share


    together.”


    | can see her eyes go shiny with unshed tears. Did she really think | would be mad or rude about it. I’m thrilled! It means I’m not


    measuring up to anyone. | get to be all of her firsts.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    This time it''s Cara that bridges the distance between our lips, kissing me with a passion that | will one day stoke to a roaring fire.


    But for now, | enjoy her passion, listening to her quiet moans and enjoying the taste of her sweetness.


    Acough interrupts us again. Jessica is getting on my nerves.


    “Here are your appetizers. Can | get you anything else right now?”


    It''s Cara that replies. She hasn’t removed her hand from my face and she doesn’t take her eyes off me. “No, we''re good for now.”

    | see Jessica leave out of the corner of my eye. | smile at Cara and take her hand, sliding it to my mouth so | can kiss her palm.


    Watching her, | take my tongue and make slow circles on the inside of her hand. Her eyes darken and her mouth falls open as |


    hear her sharp intake of breath. Keeping her hand in mine, kissing her palm again, | look at our food. | take a piece of cheese


    and bring it to her mouth. | watch as she bites into the cheese, her eyes closing and a groan leaving her lips. “Take a sip of


    wine.” | tell her softly. “It will be even better with the taste of the cheese.”


    She does as | request, watching me over the rim of her ss as she sips her wine. “You''re right. It’s delicious.”


    She sets her wine down and looks at the te. She takes the hand that I’m not holding and puts a piece of prosciutto on a slice


    of bread before bringing it to my lips. | keep hold of her hand but move it in between us and open my mouth, letting her feed me.


    We go back and forth like this until our appetizers are gone. There is something so intimate and sexual about feeding each other.


    | have a moment of absolute rity when I realize, not only do | want this the rest of my life with this woman. That no matter what


    happens, | will make sure that we have it. Together.
