I looked down and the darkness gave me a calm essence. Something that touched my heart to peace.
“I’m scared that I’ll lose him because of what I am, Luce.” I turned to meet her eyes. “I’m a stealer. And history repeats itself. What if something bad occurred and he’ll throw me away? Or hate me?”
The worries that kept living behind my head was uttered, at last. And though I thought it would make me feel any better, it just made my chest heavy. Or even more.
A sigh from my friend held back my tears. I cleared my throat and turned my back on her again before I sense her walking ever slowly behind me.
“Ash,” she hugged me, placing her chin on my shoulder. “Past was called past for a reason. You can’t let it taunt your present and mess up your future. It was all behind you, and all you could do was to look back to it but never live in it. You get me?”
I knew what she meant and I understood it well but the thought still stuck in my head. A little bit lighter.
I decided to say no more and nodded my head. She smiled at our reflection on the glass window.
“Everything will be alright. Just be yourself and not to what you were.”
A few knocks on the door interrupted us. I smiled at Lucy and squeeze her hand before walking towards the door.
It was Seth.
“Aiden can’t reach you. He said he everything was fine and they’re heading back.”
For the nth time, I got a mixed emotion inside my chest.
I’m excited, relieved and curious. First because he’ll be here soon, second for him being safe, and third for how might’ve the talk went.
“I’ll be heading back to the guesthouse, too.” Lucianna said and she’s behind me already. I looked at her and smiled.
“Thank you for coming here.”
“Anytime. Thanks for asking for me.” She laughed and hugged me for the last time. “Call me anytime.” She said.
“I will.”
Its only a matter of seconds when Harley was right next to his Luna then they were gone.
“What do you think happened?” I asked Seth when we’re alone at the living room. He was holding a bottle of beer in his hand, seated calmly on the couch.
“Aiden talked with the rogue. Everything should be fine.”
“Right…” I exhaled. “I’m still nervous though.”
Seth chuckled.
A few more moment and I heard footsteps coming.
I stood up and went to the front door to see a scratch-less, still handsome as ever Aiden walking out of the dark. Nick coming right behind him.
“How’d it go?” Seth asked in a loud voice.
I watched Aiden’s face as he walked near me. Completely ignoring Seth’s question as he looked in my eyes. Intently.
He stopped in front of me and snaked his hand on my waist, drawing me closer to his body as his gaze never left mine.
I felt my cheeks flushed from how intense his eyes were. My heart started drumming loud and deafening when I felt it.
Aiden wants me.
I got lost from lust and attraction of him so instant that I didn’t notice a baffled Seth beside us.
“Everything okay?” Seth asked again.
Nick walked on us and tapped Seth on his shoulder. “Come with me, bud.” He said and dragged Seth away from us.
I slowly exhaled when I noticed how I stopped breathing. Only to hitch my breath again when Aiden snaked his other hand on my waist to trapped me in his arms.
“A-Are you okay?” I whispered.
He inhaled my scent then exhaled and I closed my eyes when his breath lingered on my nose like heroine.
My mind grew numb and light from how he smelled. It was a mix of mint and chocolate together.
It took a minute before he speaks.
“I missed you. It’s crazy.” He said in a low, deep, hypnotic voice. I felt my insides clenched from what he said.
He misses me. Damn, I do too!
“I mi-”
In a swift move, his lips captioned mine in a deep, excruciating kiss. His tongue was already inside my mouth and all I could feel was good and heavens.
I answered his kiss with the same hunger and embraced my arms around his neck. I tried supressing my moan when he stretched his palm on my back and hugged me closer to his body.
I felt how hard he was as he thrust his hips forward to show his level of awaken.
And damn, I got even wetter.
The moment we were staring at each other, I already soaked my panties and now I think I got an ocean down below!
I can’t believe this! He still affects me the same as the day we first met! Even worse! I mean, better. Damn, he kissed so good!
“Oh, God…” I moaned against his lips when our lips parted to gasp for air. My chest are bobbing up and down from lack of oxygen. He simply took my breath away!
“Hmmm..” he nuzzled his nose on my neck, nibbling and biting my skin that kept giving me goose bumps.
His lips reached on my claim and he planted soft kisses around it, making me crave for more. More…
“Aiden…” I placed my palm on his chest as I try and stop him from teasing me. I figured that whenever he’s near my claim, I lose it. It’s like he gets inside my head and spin it all around him. All about him.
“Let’s get you to our room.” he whispered in a deep husky voice then all my inhibitions flew. That’s the same thing I want right now!
He pulled away to look me in the eyes and I noticed how loud his heart was beating. It screams for me, too. I make him feel like the way he does to me.
I bit my lip and nodded which earned a satisfied smirk from him. He looked ten times hotter whenever he smirks like that!
Aiden carried me bride-style and he run upstairs with the fastest inhuman speed I saw- or ever ride in. It took just a couple of seconds and we’re already inside his room. I’m laying on my back in his bed and he hovers above me, his elbow was holding his weight for support.
I looked down at the space between us, not minding how his eyes deeply stabbed my soul. I saw how his shirt hugged on his biceps, and it tempted me to touch there.
