Chapter 95 - [Bonus ] His Nightmare
Heat crawled on her face as she remembered last night. It was a wonderful feeling and new experience. Surprising she didn\'t feel any ache or sore right now. The medicine Atlas had given her worked wonders.
"No..NoMom"
"Wake up.don\'t leave me"
Atlas suddenly cried and her heart thudded violently in her chest.
"CassandraNo.No" He panted.
"Atlas! Wake up,"
Atlas thrashed as he rolled away from her. His hips arched as his legs kicked restlessly
"Atlas." Meredith reached for the bedside lamp while swallowing the lump in her throat
She turned it on and the room lit up she turned around towards Atlas and she stiffened.
Atlas was writing in agony, thrashing violently as he shook the bed. Tears were streaming down his face.
"Angelwake up! Don\'t"
His hands clenched the sheet while torment and pain marred on his handsome face.
Meredith grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him.
"AtlasWake up! It\'s just a dream! Wake up"
Her scream broke through his nightmare and his eyes flew opened and he jerked upright, his eyes darting around frantically.
"Meredith." He gasped, his chest heaving, his face was crushed and his lips paled.
"I\'m right here." She mumbled,
Atlas blinked, his gaze searching her face as if to confirm that she was really there.
"I-I can I hold you?" He asked, his voice surprisingly vulnerable. She had never seen this part of him before and that scared her.
Meredith turned to him and pulled him closer to her.
Atlas pressed his head on her chest as she hugged him tightly. Meredith pressed a kiss on his hair while his tears soaked her shirt.
He was crying but why? Her brows furrowed in a frown but she said nothing just hugging him tightly.
Meredith pressed a kiss on his forehead, "Shssit\'s okay. It\'s just a dream. I\'m right here."
She cooed him softly. Silence enveloped them, if not for her soaked shirt, she would have thought he was sleeping.
"Meredith." Atlas finally broke the silence.
"Yes dear." Meredith replied, her hands leisurely running through his hair.
"I don\'t think I can let you go" He whispered, his voice barely a whisper in the room.
"I-I don\'t know what I will do if you leave me, promise me no matter, you wouldn\'t leave me. Please."
Brushing the tear that had stained his face, Meredith stared into his reddened eyes. His torment was painful for her to witness. It hurts to see him like this. She was so used to the confident dominant Atlas that she never thought maybe he had his own emotional scars and fears.
"I wouldn\'t Atlas. Never."
His hand lifted to touch her face. "I can\'t lose you,"
"You won\'t." Meredith closed her eyes and leaned into his touch.
"I\'m not going anywhere Atlas. I love you and we will get past this."
His eyes blinked like a child who needed assurance.
"Promise?" He asked, biting his lips nervously.
"Promise." Meredith said, joining her forehead against his as they gazed into each other\'s eyes.
More tears leapt form his eyes.
"I don\'t know what I would become if I lose you, Angel."
Her heart twisted with pain, she wondered what his nightmare was about for him to look so empty and sad.
"Shssyou won\'t."
Atlas nodded and laid his head on her chest in a daze.
Meredith wasn\'t sure if he would even remember all of this when he wakes up in the morning,
****
Meredith woke up sometime later, hearing Atlas\'s light snores. The light was still on. Atlas laid on his back, his beautiful face was peaceful. He had fallen asleep while she was holding him.
She was happy to see him, looking peaceful. She stared at the man she loved. The man who gave her pleasure, who treated her like a princess and whose thoughtfulness moved her. She pressed a kiss on his forehead and sat up.
She gently got down from the bed since she didn\'t want to wake up the sleeping baby beside her. However as she did, she jumped out of her skin as Atlas\'s hand snaked around her waist pulling her back to the bed.
She squealed around to see a Atlas with a lazy smirk on his face, "Good morning."
Meredith blushed as he nuzzled her neck.
"Atlas!" She laughed.
"Let me go and get up. You\'re going to be late for work!"
"Oh work, what is that?" he said, playfully as he licked her neck,
Meredith\'s breath hitched with her chest rising fast as his touch cause pleasure to pulse through her.
"I have a few minutes to spare to please my girlfriend so tell me Angel, what do you want?"
He muttered biting her earlobe.
"You." Meredith breathed.
"What was that? I didn\'t hear you."
Meredith blushed and bit her lips.
"I want you."
Atlas growled in satisfaction as he pressed his lips softly against hers. Meredith closed her eyes as she surrendered to him. His blistering kiss set fire to her soul. Each kiss sent licks of electricity through her veins.
His mouth moved to her slender throat and bit it gently. Meredith trembled.
"I love how your body response to my touch. How it surrenders to me. So fucking hot,." His hand grabbed her breast and squeezed it.
Meredith yelped as a shudder ran down her spine. She was soaking wet right now.
Atlas pulled away, brushing her hair from her face as he stood up with her legs wrapped around his waist.
He placed her on the floor.
"I will be late for my meeting." He smirked.
"Atlas!" Meredith yelled.
"Yes baby?" he replied with a glint in his as he grinned.
Meredith blushed as he walked towards the bathroom leaving her hot and bothered.
