Zelda I can’ deny Zac had completely taken my by surprise with his proposal, the way he had decorated the room the warm glow of the candles the scent of the rose petals filling the air. As soon as he kissed me, I forgot everything. His kiss lit a fire in my body, and I wanted nothing more than to be consumed by him. The whole night had been a whirlwind of romance and carnal passion. I hadn’t even thought about the pain I had been in, all I wanted was his touch. His gaze as he stared into my eyes made my stomach knot with my heart skipping a beat. It had been a long night, but I wouldn’t have wanted anything else, it was in some ways perfect, and I felt whole. I had awoken not long ago pulling out some of the petals that had stuck to my hair, Zac wrapped up in my body his arms and legs entwined with mine. I knew he was awake as every now and again he would place soft kisses on my body. There was a deep ache inside me that I found satisfying. My skin had been marked from his kisses on
ZeldaMy whole body was shaking with fear, I hadn’t felt fear like this since I was a child. Memories of the day I was taken flashed through my mind, I shook them off they would only make things worse; I couldn’t afford to get trapped in the memory. It would do me no good thinking about that now. I knew I shouldn’t have left, I felt foolish, this is exactly why Zac had wanted me to stay inside. If I didn’t feel like I had cabin fever I probably would have stayed. Now I was going to get killed by his jealous ex-girlfriend. The knots in my stomach forming from fear. None of that didn’t matter now though I needed to keep in the present. There still might be a way out of this.I knew she wanted Zac to herself so I needed to play on that an idea came to mind, if I could make her see how she will get what she wants then it could work. She was sat opposite me extending and retracting her claws to toy with me. I took a deep breath allowing the fear to leave me, so I had a clear my heard. If s
Zaikai I had been in meetings all day catching up on everything that I had missed from staying by Zelda’s side at the hospital. I had hoped there would be an opportunity to be able to head back and check on her in between, but they just ran back-to-back. There was a lot of paperwork that I was reading through and signing documents to ensure policies were updated. Xael had reported a few issues back that needed attention and the council had gathered to discuss what the best course of action was going to be. I had just stepped out from my finally meeting and needed to speak to my father, there hadn’t been much of an opportunity earlier and this was a private matter not necessarily something to discuss with everyone. I got a glimpse of him heading down the hallway back to his quarters, for some one his age he was still spritely. I had to take off at a job to catch up to him. ‘It’s good to have you back Zaikai you made some good suggestions,’ he glanced back at me as I caught up with h
Zaikai ‘If you had chosen a breeder being of Fae or Witch origin that would have given us some leverage.’ He muttered under his breath, I could still hear what he said, he was just voicing his thoughts allowed. This angered me, if it was so important for me to select a specific species, he should have told me, Fae I could probably have been persuaded but a witch definitely not. ‘You said I could choose who I wanted that it was my decision,’ the idea of Zelda not being mine, her being with someone else ignited a fire within, there’s no way I would give her up. Seeing my expression my father reassured me. ‘It is I wanted you to find someone that you cared for, not a political alliance, it’s why I hadn’t said anything, my father never took my choice for who I should be with, and I vowed I would do the same,’ he grumbled the last part but still honed his decision which I was glad. A thought occurred to me. ‘How much time do we have before they will make a move? Do you think that’s why
Zelda I thrashed into another rock, the current by the cliffs was a force to be reckoned with. Weak from the loss of blood I could see the area around me tinging the water red with blood as my neck had not healed yet. Laelia I was finally free of her. Free from everything. I had escaped. I thought of Zac a moment of sadness washed through me with guilt at leaving him that way. It was for the best though. Despite everything I could feel myself developing feelings for him, it was getting harder and harder to be around him, knowing or not knowing if each time he left me he was going to her. I pushed the thoughts from my mind as I gripped onto the rock I’d smacked into. I needed to do something, I could feel my legs getting cuts and scratches from flinging into the rock. I needed my tail and fin; I could swim below the depths and get out of here. It hurt to know that wasn’t an option. I looked around trying to avoid the water spray in my eyes, perhaps if I moved to the next rock, I cou
Zelda It had been a few days since I had got back. The first I had been difficult. There was a lot of tears and walking on eggshells trying to avoid saying anything that would upset anyone. I had told them the basics of what had happened. Mum had burst into tears and my father’s jaw I thought would break as it was clenched so tightly. When I got to the part of me being sold to a vampire my mother had left the room, dad had gone after her to calm her down, Carabella had just looked guilty. I didn’t want that, it had happened, but I was back now. I just wanted some time to enjoy that before dealing with what had occurred. I hadn’t slept at all; I had gotten so used to Zac snuggled into that I found I couldn’t sleep without it. All I did was toss and turn trying to get comfy, I must have dozed off at some point as I woke up feeling groggy and a headache. My room was just how I’d left it, everything I had cherished all those years ago. It was strange as if I was transported back to my l
Zelda His dark eyes held mine, causing my cheeks to heat, he smirked as his gaze took in the rest of me. I could feel him drinking me. The longer he looked at me, I could feel my blood heating up, a restlessness settling into my body, an urge to run my hand over his toned muscular body, I could feel my fingers itching to know how he felt under my hand. My blush deepened with all the images of what I would like to do with him flicking through my mind. It seemed he had the same thoughts as he coughed drawing my gaze back to him. I hadn’t even realized I was staring at his dick, or at least where I suspected his crotch to be. He gave me another smirk, God what was he doing here. He can’t be here this is so confusing. Now I know what that wink was for, oh no Bella what have you said to lure him here? I turned back to look at the kitchen both their heads popping out behind the door frame before disappearing. I couldn’t help but laugh at how ridiculous they were being. I heard him chuckle
Zelda I stared back at my reflection in the mirror. Bella had worked her magic it was equally amazing and terrifying at the same time I didn’t even look like myself. She had pulled my hair into a sleek ponytail with a section of hair wrapping around the band. My make up was done for the first time ever! She had put a dark smokey shadow on my eyes which made the purple visible from miles away. The rest of my face was dusted with highlighter and blush. She insisted I wear a lipstick I protested and stated I was happy just with gloss, but she won although opted for a nude colour. She had even done my nails in a similar shade a few silver gems to add some sparkle. Whilst she insisted, I scrub and polish myself in the bath she had been into town and returned with a diamond jeweled bra. It had purple straps coming across the shoulder that crossed at the back. It fit perfectly which I was surprised at given that this was the first time I had tried it on and with the jewels there wasn’t any
