The Beautiful Monster

Alyssa couldn't remember the last time that she stayed in a hotel. Or if she even had before. Her parents didn't exactly make it a habit to take her on any trips.

She hadn't been able to afford them during her first few years of college. Now, she was finally at a point where this wouldn't kill her bank account.

She had a way better job now than she did back in her sophomore year. Though, she did miss the simplicity and easiness of that job.

"455," Elias murmured as he looked down at the key card in his hand. Once the elevator opened, he walked out and took a left down a long hallway, glancing at the doors to try to find their room.

Alyssa followed behind, her black sneakers thudding against the blue carpeted floor. She couldn't wait for the festival tomorrow, but she was also excited for some quiet time tonight.

She only really got to relax with Elias on the weekends because they were both so busy. Now, they were far away from Osland, and she wanted to make the most of their time here.

"Here we are," Elias said as he stopped between two doors on either side of the hallway. He pointed to the one on his left. "This is ours."

"We'll see you guys soon," Alyssa told Zoe and Cole, who nodded before disappearing into their own room.

She turned back to Elias just as he unlocked the door and pushed it open. She stepped inside with a look of wonder.

There was a queen-sized bed, a desk, a nice bathroom, a mini fridge and bar, and a small sofa.

She headed over to the tall window in the room, peering out at the small city. She could see all of the cars and people moving on the streets and sidewalk down below.

She couldn't wait for more great views like this. She saw so much life as it happened.

"This is amazing," she said as she turned back to Elias.

Elias set their bags down before walking over to her. He put his hands on her waist, pulling her close.

"We're going to have an amazing time," he told her as he smiled at her. "I've loved every single one of our adventures together."

Alyssa felt her heart beat rapidly as she gazed up into his eyes. From little tea dates to long hikes in beautiful parts of the forest, she couldn't count how many things they experienced together.

She hoped that they got to experience so much more. She felt alive with him.

"I love you," she murmured as she placed her hands on his upper arms, feeling the shift of muscle when he tightened his grip on her waist.

Elias rested his forehead against hers.

"I love you. I'm proud of you too," he told her. "I've loved watching you become this beautiful, intelligent, stubborn woman."

Alyssa laughed softly as she rolled her eyes at him. He claimed that she was stubborn, but she only felt that she was under certain circumstances.

Then again, wasn't she stubborn for denying that she was stubborn?

"You've helped me become her. Without you… I wouldn't have tried half the things I did. I wouldn't have ever felt this happy," she told him. He changed her life.

"Let me make you feel really happy right now," Elias smirked before he pressed his lips against hers.

Alyssa wrapped her arms around his neck as she melted under the kiss. He was so warm, so soft. She let him lead her to the recently made bed.

A gasp left her when she was pushed onto her back. She peered up at him with a smile as he crawled over her.

"What a good way to start our vacation," she commented as she grabbed the end of his black shirt, tugging it off his body. Her eyes fell to the lean muscle of his chest and arms, making her feel warm all over at the sight.

Elias chuckled as he pulled her shirt off.

"It's going to be one you're never going to forget," he told her before tugging off her jean shorts. "So damn beautiful."

Alyssa blushed as she sat up a little. She undid his belt and jeans, helping him push them off. She pulled him back down, kissing him heatedly as their hands roamed over each other's bodies.

She ran her fingers through his hair, holding tight as he cupped her breasts through her bra.

Elias unclasped her bra, unable to take the bra being in the way any longer. He broke from her lips and tilted his head down to take one of her hard nipples into his mouth.

He sucked steadily, while he caressed her other breast with his hand.

Alyssa arched up into his touch, sighing blissfully at how warm his mouth felt. She closed her eyes, reveling in the sensations as he switched to the other nipple. She wrapped her legs around him, drawing him close.

"I need you," she breathed out. As much as she loved teasing, she wanted him. It had been days since the last time they slept together because they had been so busy.

This was their first chance to, and she didn't want to take a chance and miss it.

"Someone's impatient," Elias said as he felt her tugging on his hair. He lifted his head to smirk at her. "What do you want?"

"You," Alyssa told him, feeling his fingertips drift up her thighs teasingly.

"How bad?" Elias asked as he pushed her panties aside.

"So bad," Alyssa breathed out, feeling her words nearly get caught in her throat when she felt his fingers brush through her folds. She was already wet and ready for him.

Elias grinned as he circled her clit a few times with his fingers before pushing them inside of her. He captured her lips to quiet her moan, curling his fingers inside of her to hit that spot that made her nearly see stars.

Alyssa pushed her hips up against his hand, enjoying the pressure as he thrust them inside of her. It still wasn't what she wanted, though. He was still teasing her.

"Please," she said as she reached forward to grip his hard length through his black briefs.

Elias chuckled lowly as he shook his head at her.

"Naughty, aren't you?" he murmured before pulling his fingers out. He suddenly grabbed her hips and flipped her over onto her stomach.

A moan broke from her as he pulled her up onto her knees with her upper body angled down toward the bed.

She turned her head to look back at him just as he shoved his briefs down and pushed inside of her.

Elias dropped his head as he reveled in the feeling of her. He dug his fingertips into her hips, holding tight as they both adjusted. He then started thrusting into her, drawing moan after moan from her.

Alyssa rested her forehead on the mattress as the heat and pressure started to overtake her. It felt so good, and she knew that he wouldn't stop until she was falling apart.

She parted her legs more, gasping in bliss at the change in angle. It felt like he was going so deep.

"So good," Elias gritted out as his hands drifted over her thighs and ass. He increased his pace, driving into her hard and fast.

Alyssa squeezed her eyes shut, feeling her legs threaten to shake. Heat and pleasure filled her to the brim, and she felt so close to exploding already.

He still worked her body so well. He knew what spots to hit, what angles to do. He knew everything about how to please her.

"I'm so close, Elias," she breathed out. Her back arched as he pulled her back against him.

Elias knew exactly what she needed. He reached around to slip his hand between her legs, rubbing at her clit to make her legs tremble.

"Come on, baby," he encouraged her as he leaned near her ear, not stopping his thrusts. He was intent on bringing her over the edge.

Alyssa finally succumbed to the pleasure, nearly toppling over as the wave of heat overtook her. She managed to stay upright just long enough for him to finish before they both collapsed onto the mattress next to each other. She breathed in deeply, trying to catch her breath.

"Woah," she breathed out before laughing. "We need to take more vacations."

Elias turned his head to grin at her. A few strands of his dark hair stuck against his forehead.

"We have some more time left to wreck this hotel room," he pointed out.

Alyssa turned onto her side to face him. She lifted an eyebrow at him.

"Are you willing to pay for those damages?" she asked.

"Hell yeah," Elias smirked before pulling her close to him. He captured her lips in a sultry kiss, letting his hand travel up the curve of her body.

Alyssa smiled into the kiss, sensing that they were going to spend a little more time in the bed before getting ready for dinner. They had one kind of hunger on their minds right now, and it wasn't for food.
