Chapter 470: How Their Day Was Supposed to End

Damien checked the time on his watch as he pushed the door open to his bedroomit was almost two in the morning, and Katherine wasn't in his bed where he left her earlier. His brows instantly knitted and he scanned the room for traces of her but found nothing. "Katherine?" he called upon entering and closing the door behind him.

Just as he headed to the bathroom, she stepped out of it with nothing but a towel on, her hair was still damp that small droplets of water wet her shoulders. "Hi" she smiled.

"What are you doing up? You should be sleeping." He approached her and his gaze lingered on her exposed skinthe fold of the towel sat above her cleavage.

"I suddenly felt uncomfortable, so I took a cold shower"

Sighing, he grabbed a small towel from the bathroom behind her and started to gently dry her hair. "It's almost winter. You shouldn't be taking cold showers at this time. You'll get sick."

"I needed one. I had to clear my head."

"Everything okay? Is something bothering you?" he asked.

Katherine looked down. She was indeed bothered about something and she hesitated whether to tell him or not. "It was a long day And I was expecting and planning to take you out on a date afterward but well things happened."

Damien's hand stilled as he stared at her. She formed a small smile, took the towel from his hands, and entered the walk-in closet. She had stayed in his place several times already, so she knew where to find his t-shirts. Taking one from the top of the pile in his drawer, she was about to grab a pair of undies that she kept there when all of a sudden, his arms went around her waist and his chin rested on her moist shoulder.

She froze in place, waiting for him to say something but he was only quiet. "The towel is wet" she told him, turning her head to the side where his head was. However, instead of pulling away, he tightened his embrace, not even caring that he was getting wet. Seeing that he had no plans on pulling away, she relaxed and leaned against him. 

"You're tired" he whispered.

"I slept for a good hour, I think"

"No I mean You're tired from everything that's going on with you, aren't you?"

Katherine did not expect that he would see right through her. And she couldn't tell if she was happy that he did. Was she so transparent? Or was he really just that good at reading her?

When she didn't answer, he added, "I know you are. You don't have to hide it. I get it And I want all of this to be over just like you do."

Turning around to face him, she looked at him straight in the eye. "I just want to stop worrying about everything around us. Is it selfish of me that I actually wish not to do anything else but just constantly take care of you? Because that's what I want to do, Damien. I want to take care of you every day without having to worry that tomorrow, we'd both probably get shot at out of nowherewhat with Shadow still operating and all."

Damien softly laughed at her statement. It's definitely something she would saysweet with a hint of fun or thriller. "I know what you're trying to say. I feel the same way, Love. I want to take care of you and spoil you every day for the rest of our lives. And we will have that. I promise you."

"It's just too hard right now" she sighed and sadly smiled. "Every single day feels like a lifetime. It had only been about a month since I came back, yet so many things had happened already. It's exhausting. I just can't wait for it to be over."

"We'll get there. And when we do, we'll look back to this day and say that it's all worth it."

Katherine nodded, "We'll be okay, right, Damien?"

He tipped her chin with his fingers, leaned in and captured her lips, kissing her ever so gently. "Baby, as long as we're together, we'll be okay. Don't ever forget that."

"Okay"

"We're in a silent war at the momentwith possibly not only one enemy. These things take time, so we have to be patient. We can't risk moving ahead blindly or we'll lose even before we knew what hit us. We have to be smarter I'm sure you know that already."

"Mm... It's more important to out-think your enemy than to outfight him."

Damien smiled and nodded. "Sun Tzu," he said the name of the Chinese strategist whom she just quoted.

"I can't wait, Damien. So I'm really praying that the odds would be in our favor."

"Don't worry. After all this, we can go on dates wherever you want to go."

"Promise?"

"With all my heart." He kissed her again, his hands sliding up to her breasts. "But for now, we'll just have to make use of our bed for our dates." And he pulled the towel off herthe fluffy white cotton falling to the floor, around her feet.

Pressing her naked body against him, she hooked her arms around his neck and deepened their kiss. She allowed him to move her backward until her bottom touched the cold island counter in the middle of the room. Her fingers fumbled the buttons of his dress shirt and peeled it off him.

In haste, Damien removed his pants along with his boxer briefs until they both stood bare in front of each other. "On second thought, we could first make use of this counter right here," he said just as he hoisted her up on the counter and spread her legs apart as he settled in between her thighs.

"You can take me anywhere you want in this room. I'm all yours" She pulled him closer, her legs wrapping around his waist as she pressed her lips to his. She moaned when the roof of his erection poked her already wet entrance.

Trailing kisses on the side of her neck, he slightly pushed her backward so that she was slanted on top of the counter and he was hovering over her. 

"I want to hear you scream my name," he whispered against her skin just before he pushed himself inside her.

"Ah! Damien!" Katherine clutched his shoulders. He hadn't even moved yet but she could already feel herself reaching her climax. This was how their day was supposed to endor maybe they had just started?
