Lyne looked into those brown eyes and she could see through him. She didn't know why but Zeidan immediately seemed transparent. They were intimately close to each other in the quiet enclosed place in the palace and given how close their room is, it was easier to kiss this handsome man and retreat into the room. She could give anything to do that.No, she couldn't possibly give it a chance. She shifted on one leg as she stared hard at him and exhaled audibly."But..."Rubbing the back of her head slightly and unconsciously noticing the absence of pain, she looked at him again. She could have picked someone more attractive or of a more prestigious title than Zeidan's but somehow she wondered if by now, she would follow any other man home no matter how attractive he is other than the man before her. The way he touches her that makes her want to melt, or his eyes that seemed to render her speechless and give her a rushed feeling. Someone else who would be given the chance to marry would h
It was still night; almost midnight, when Zeidan decided to scan the city since he has been informed that the vampire city has been surrounded by Werecats. Pulling his cloak around him, he checked himself in the mirror and concluded that all was set.He knew his city was on fire but sorting it out with impatience can only cost him his people's lives. The stars were no longer visible and the moon seem blurred. A perfect time to strike. Transforming into a v-shaped face with tough skin vampire and his eyes turning pure black, he moved out of his room and made for the city alone.He walked past the quiet surrounding of the royal mansion and walked out into the straight road that led to a bridge in the middle of a forest. On that bridge, one could oversee the city. He snorted and gritted his two long canine teeth, ready to attack. Getting to the bridge, he let out his eagle eyes around the perimeter of the city. In one part where a stream passed in between mountain steeps and farther away
"Zeidan !!!" Lyne screamed as she saw that he had been stabbed. He had survived a deadly bite. How could he not survive a sword wound? She looked up at who had stabbed him and she saw the ninja again. The place where she had stabbed her was still visible and her cloak was soaked in blood. Her eyes were puffed and red as she looked at Zeidan on the floor, obviously unconscious or maybe dead. Her heart did a triple summersault at the thought. What would become of her? "How interesting?" The voice behind the cloak said as she moved towards her. She dragged herself backward, not knowing what would befall her. However, she wished so much that she died as well as Zeidan was dead. What would life mean to her without him?"He is most vulnerable around you. I realized that, so I couldn't die without making sure that I take him along.""Take him along? What do you mean?" She asked, voice shaking."He deserved to die, just like you do too.""I didn't do anything to you. I freed you from your
Lyne sat on the floor, placing Zeidan's head on her chest as she kept sobbing. Rubbing his head in circles and hoping he was okay. She tore a part of her dress, tears rolling down her cheeks and soiling her dress. She was sweating despite the cool air around. Pressing the cloth on the sword wound, she got a reaction from Zeidan who coughed and looked like he had just woken up from consciousness. "Zeidan? Zeidan!" She had never been so happy as she saw him open his eyes weakly."What has been going on, arrogant Queen?" Zeidan teased as he smiled, getting a light tap from Lyne.But she doesn't care. All that mattered is this man in her arms. "You scared me, Zeidan." She whispered."And you inspire me, Lyne." He placed a hand on her face, which he brought down to kiss her cheeks. Lyne chuckled and blushed slightly, not minding the blood smeared on her cheeks. Instead, she turned her face and kissed his lips in full. Zeidan tried holding back but she wasn't and she missed him with her
Sweet, Lyne thought she could manage being without Zeidan and her feelings for him were just illusions. For the past few months, everything he had done had been considerate, practical, and caring, with his action always careful. Why then did he not defend her during his discussion with Luana?"I guess you didn't wait to watch till the end." She heard his voice right behind her and she could see his face show up from her shoulder through the mirror.He must have read her thoughts and instead of it annoying her, she smiled as if amused."I don't think I have to watch till the end to know now that you didn't mean all of those."Zeidan inhaled deeply and dug his hands into his pockets, eyes thoughtful."What made you go to the temple?" He inquired."I... I needed to confirm something.""What?""The day you showed me the temple and I saw the blood-stained picture of a man holding a lamb, I had this feeling that the stain isn't a hundred years old like you told me...""It has been there rig
Zeidan continued his work of adoring his beautiful wife. Doing things he had dreamt a thousand times. What he always wished to do whenever he saw her. His comportment kicked apart and he made sure everything he did was with care and borne out of his love for her. And this woman felt the same about him. She was touching him already and he couldn't resist because he didn't want to. She pulled apart the zipper on his trouser, her hand slightly brushing his hard member. Her hands cupped him and caressed him with shocking confidence. he never would have thought she had, and he moaned with the sheer sensation of her touch.His lips crushed hers in a frantic greeting of hunger and desire and she met him with the same energy. Without words said, they both acknowledged the need for more than just mere release and he did well to turn his kiss into a slow, careful promise of a future that included her. His mouth caressed her body and the hard length of him pressed against her.His hands were ov
The sun rose lazily but the rain had stopped falling. The day struggled to break free from the gathered clouds and paved the way for the sun to dry up the wet grounds.Luana maneuvered herself and her horse through the rocky paths that led to the big building, her heart heavy and thrown in confusion. She tried to believe Zeidan was doing this to make Lyne feel wanted at least and not because of anything else but she just couldn't keep it in her mind. She stormed her way through to Lyne's room. It's high time she knows her place and stops thinking she can have a place in Zeidan's heart.From afar, she could see a few guards standing about five feet away from her room, all standing at attention and she knew immediately that Zeidan is inside with her. She made to enter but was shocked when two of the guards crossed their spears to stop her from going inside."What the heck is going on?" She asked, her gaze hardened as if the guards were beginning to forget who she is."You're not stoppin
"Open your eyes." She heard the hushed voice order her and as if she was being controlled, her eyes flung open. What she saw made her gasp.A tall white wolf looked down at her, its blue eyes the most beautiful ones she has ever seen. It looked like the one that had shown up to her the night she first kissed Zeidan but this time, it looked more calm and happy than threatening. It was a Luna. Her white fur covered her body and she could swear she saw it glitter. She made to touch it but it faded away into the dark with a howl and the hushed voice said again."Thank you for freeing me."By the time she would open her eyes, it was already getting close to sunset. She slowly opened her eyelids and was met with the delicious smell of Maine lobster rolls, tamale pie, and macaroni salad. Placing her hand behind her, Lyne realized Zeidan was no longer there. Had he gone outside to order the maids to cook food? She sat up and memories of that morning came rushing, lifting her mouth in a smile.
