Kabanata 8 El Filibusterismo Aral

Mi nombre es Arabella. Vendí 20 años de mi vida para convertirme en la asistente de un vampiro después de la muerte de mi padre para ayudar a mi familia. Debería haber tenido miedo de la sangre y los colmillos, pero en cambio, anhelo los toques de mi maestro. Lo que no sabía era que mi deseo por él solo me traería destrucción. *** "Sabes deliciosa." Él lame sus labios, acercándome más a él. El calor de su piel contra la mía y el ritmo calmante de su corazón latiendo me calman un poco. Relajo mis hombros y yago allí con mi cabeza en su pecho. "Ara, soy tu maestro y es mi responsabilidad mantenerte segura, pero hoy fallé." Sus palabras suenan sinceras, y realmente desearía poder creerle. Pero todos los vampiros son monstruos. Él solo resulta ser el monstruo en el que desearía poder confiar. «Mi amo vampiro: Un contrato de sangre y lujuria» es una creación de Angeline Hartwood, una autora de eGlobal Creative Publishing.

우리 엄마는 나 때문에 화병으로 돌아가셨다. 내가 주인공이 돼야 할 결혼식의 신부가 박형식의 파트너로 바뀐 순간 엄마는 숨이 멎어 들었고 그렇게 내 결혼식은 엄마의 장례식이 되어버렸다. 박형식은 그럼에도 결혼식을 강행했고 아예 나더러 강지연 손에 반지를 끼워주라고 했다. “얼른 끼워줘, 식 끝나면 내가 다 설명할게.” 나는 그런 박형식을 무시하며 엄마의 시체를 안고 호텔을 나왔다. 저녁 8시가 되자 신부가 바뀐 결혼식도 원만히 끝났는지 강지연이 인스타에 피드를 하나 올렸는데 거기에 좋아요가 수십만 개나 달려있었다. “오늘 드디어 원하던 사람과 결혼했어요, 다들 와주셔서 너무 고맙고 또 본인 주제를 알고 알아서 비켜주신 그분한테도 고맙네요.” “사랑받을 자격이 없는 사람은 사랑해주지 말아야지.” 그 피드 아래에 달린 박형식의 댓글을 본 나는 차디찬 영안실에서 둘을 위해 '좋아요'를 눌러주며 “오래도록 행복하세요.”라는 댓글을 달았다. 그리고는 엄마의 유골함을 안고 짐을 정리하러 집으로 돌아갔는데 그곳에서 하필 내가 산 소파에 앉아 서로를 부둥켜안고 키스를 하고 있는 박형식과 강지연을 보게 되었다.
