Chapter Twelve - The Hint of a Spark (Teaser #2)

Edward stood up without warning, making me gasp with surprise, then gently cupped my cheek in his hands, a small smile playing on his lips.

“Fuck the rules,” he said softly, gazing into my eyes. I nodded weakly, my breathing shaky as our bodies pressed together, the magnitude of the moment hitting me hard and fast.

“Fuck the rules,” I agreed, then let out a soft moan as Edward slowly lowered his lips to mine...

"Did you sleep okay?"

“I slept…” He seemed to struggle to find the words again. “Alright, I guess.”

“I’m sorry,” I murmured, smiling sadly. He shrugged.

“It’s not your fault, baby,” he sighed, gently pushing down on my lower back to coax me closer so he could press his forehead to mine. “If it weren’t for you being here, I’d have been lucky to sleep at all, and even then, it would be plagued with nightmares.”

“I wish there was more I could do,” I confessed softly, stroking his cheek with my thumb. “I feel… helpless.”

“Baby, you do enough for me already,” he breathed, smiling. “Last night… Last night, you gave me everything. Every single part of you… you gave me that. And that was more than I ever…” He trailed off, shaking his head as his smile grew. I glanced down at his chest, feeling my eyes well up with tears.

“Bella?” He sounded worried. “Look at me?”

“It’s okay, Edward,” I assured him, using both hands to push down his pants before sliding the fabric further down his legs with my feet. “You’re safe. I’m not going to let them hurt you.”

Edward kicked his pajama pants off, then settled between my legs again and whimpered when he felt the tip of him brush against me. I knew my hand wouldn’t be enough for him anymore; he was far too worked up, so I slid my arms around him instead, allowing him to thrust against me.

“B-Bella,” he choked out, pressing his forehead hard against mine as his length slid against me. “Oh, God…”

“Shhh,” I soothed as I tilted my face up and kissed him softly, only to break away with a gasp as the very tip of him accidentally slipped inside me just moments later.

“Oh, please,” he whispered, clamping his eyes shut. “Please.”

I swallowed nervously. “Okay.”
