Promise

Maya heard her heart loudly thumping in her chest, breathing just enough to stay alive, her insides acking and clench, she could feel her folds were wet and burning for something more, her reasoning was gone and all she wanted was for him to do more but Sylus kept his hands locked tight in the same place as they were before.

Slowly pulling away from the kiss breathless, Sylus bit her lower lip before opening his eyes to look at Maya, who was frowning at him, lightly glaring as if what he did had upset her.

Determined to clear the air between them, putting his finger under her chin " Did I do something to upset you?" he asked in a choked up voice, swallowing the lump in his throat feeling a little nervous at her reaction.

Maya puffed her cheeks feeling a little frustrated " No, uhm...it's just that...I-" she shyly tried to explain what was bothering her, the colour in her cheeks instantly got brighter the more she thought of what she wanted him to do.

Sylus cleared his throat, his lips curled in a satified smile, he gathered from her expressions and her bright red cheeks what she was thinking " I made a promise to you that I will wait until you are ready Maya and I intend to keep that promise." his soft voice made Maya forget why she was angry in the first place, she felt his hand grabbing hers and kissed the back of it.

Pulling herself up, her eyes fell again on his groin that now seemed to have grown larger sitting on her knees between his legs, she bit her lower lip realising that if she felt so stirred up and the frustration that she had felt moments ago was so overwhelming, she had gathered that Sylus was worse off than she was and she felt a bit guilty.

Gathering her courage, she finally looked up at him, with a shy smile " I'm sorry! Does it hurt?" she asked while her eyes fell back on his groin, unconsciously nibbling on her cheek.

Sylus stood up, grimacing at the uncomfortable feeling " Jus a little.It was worth it. It's a small price to pay." he added with a light chuckle while looking into Maya's sad eyes.

Sylus stood up, reaching his hand for Maya to take pulling her along to sit next to him " You should go back to Rom.I need to take care of this." he muttered under his breath the last sentence, looking a little embarrassed while pointing at his groin.

Maya's eyebrows raised, her lips parted to speak but she quickly closed her mouth, knowing what he meant, since she had heard her married friends talk about such things that their husbands did.

She instead nodded in agreement, tip toeing she placed a kiss on his cheek and made her way back to were Rom was, having one last look over her shoulder at Sylus who was staring at her smiling.

As soon as Maya was out of sight Sylus's leaned against the tree trunk closing his eyes, a satified smile quickly appeared on his face at the memory of the night that he had spent with Maya.

Taking a sharp breath in to calm his nerves, hoping that his member will settle down now that she was out of sight and out of his reach, he stood there for a while but to no avail, his member stayed hard and he finally decided to take care of his little problem.

Pulling down his pants, he grabbed his hard member, closing his eyes and thinking of the girl with the fiery red hair and how he felt under her touch, he rubbed his member until he reached his peak and finally was able to breath properly.

Breathing heavily, he slowly opened his eyes, somewhat satisfied with his handiwork. He couldn't wait for that moment he had been longing for so long, the moment he would make Maya his but for now he would have to settle with this.

He had been in love with her for so long and now that he was finally getting closer, he didn't want by any means to ruin his chances with, he knew that one wrong move could scare her off and he wanted her heart by all means not just her body. For her to love him just as much he loved her, he couldn't imagine another woman by his side other than Maya.

Running his finger through his hair, he finally made his way back to the camp to meet up with Rom and Maya.

Slowly approaching the two siblings he could see Maya sitting down next to spent fire and Rom laying down still deep in his slumber.

Stopping his footsteps next to Maya, he sat down next to her looking at her, he brushed her hair with fingers, tucking one loose strand behind her ear, with a dashing smile.

" We should look for some water and food while he is still asleep." Sylus wispered to Maya who looked at him with a sweet smile and nodded in agreement while pulling herself up from her spot.

Sylus got himself up and started walking towards the tree line but as soon as they tried to make their way deeper into the forest they found themselves circling back into the same spot where they have set camp within minutes.

Maya frowned looking at Sylus, who shrugged and frowned just like she did.Sylus tipped his chin towards Rom who was still sleeping and Maya understanding what he meant made her way to where Rom was bending down, she gently patted his shoulder " Rom, wake up!" she called her brother in a hushed voice while looking a bit worried that her brother wasn't showing any signs of waking up.

" Wake up Rom!" she loudly called him again while tears pooling in her eyes and her lips started to tremble

Maya fell on her knees, sobbing while Sylus with two quick strides was next to her within moments, bending down he place his fingers under his nose, feeling the faint breathing.

" He is still breathing ." he informed her while looking around for something, Maya looked at him sniffling

" Tyla." he muttered under his breath gritting his teeth while glaring at the spot that she stood the previous night.

Maya blinked at Sylus not knowing what he meant, her eyebrows knitted together " What does she have to do with all of this?" she asked in a faint voice while looking at her brother and over her shoulder following Sylus's line of sight.

" She has done something to Rom and the forest. Now we can't go anywhere!" he stated while returning to look at Maya pained expression because of Rom.

Maya opened her mouth to retort but before she could voice out any words, she felt her body go limp and collapsed on the ground, making Sylus freeze in his spot not knowing what do to.

Falling on his knees next to her, he quickly checked her breathing and shook her shoulders to wake her up but Maya stayed unmoving sensless.

Determined to get out of the forest and save Maya and Rom, he pushed himself off the ground only to feel his body losing strength, falling next to Maya drifting to unconsciousness.
