Rayline Jesse got to the field ready to fly off, and I grabbed him tightly by the neck. He then took off, his wings flapping as I got off the ground. My eyes looked down to see the people rushing down from the trees. "Hang on," Jesse said as he tried to shoot off faster than he ever had before. I looked down once again, and I could see those people, or rather the rogue demons who were armed with the sacred blade. One of them pulled back to draw a blade, and without wasting any time my hand quickly gripped onto Jesse. "Jesse, look out-" My words were cut off as one of the large daggers flew up and pierced one of Jesse's wings, and he let out a cry of pain. "Shit!" Jesse cursed as he tried to hold me back from going down, but the dagger was still stuck in his wing. I let go for a second and grabbed it and pulled it out, thus injuring my hand as I pulled it out, and I winced as blood could be seen dripping from my palm. But even though the knife was out, Jesse still seemed to be str
Rayline "Thank you," Darren said as Cole started to stand up and stepped away from him, nodding his head. "I'm next, please," Taylor said from the ground, while I just watched from the couch as Cole stepped closer and started healing all of Taylor's wounds. On the other hand, I could not take my eyes off him, part of me still wondering if this was real. I did not even want to let go of his hand when I came back to Taylor's house. Throughout the flight with him, I could only remain silent. Hell, I did not even know where to start. I caught sight of his face as he focused on the wounds that were closing on their own. His hair was longer now, dangling in front of his eyes as he looked at Taylor, and I noticed that he also looked more buff, even though he was already muscular before. But now that his body was so obviously ripped it made him that much more delicious. Then I quickly shook my head at my silly thoughts. He straightened up and walked over to Jesse on the couch. He took a
Rayline My lips formed a small smirk because I did know him, and I knew that if any girl were to get close to him, he would probably just look her up and down while glaring and then walk away with a cold look, exactly like he did to all the other girls. Well, all the girls except me. A hush falls over the room as we both sit on either side of the end of the bed, and my whole body shudders as a chill runs down my spine. Cole is quick to notice and he looks hesitant for a moment, but then scoots up the bed to put his arms around me. I looked up at him as he pulled me to his side, his warmth wrapping around me as I rested my head on his shoulder as he held me from behind. "Cole..." I said in a quiet voice. "Please don't leave." My voice sounded faint, and he looked down at me. "I don't think I can take it. Not anymore." Then he took a deep breath, and his chest puffed out against my back. I turned my body so that my face was hovering in front of his, and our eyes locked on each other
Rayline Cole walked out of his bedroom door grinning, while the scenes of my trip down memory lane continued, going back to the time when he first lost control, when we spent the day together in the downtown area, going to his house at night, the first time we kissed. His expression was always blank, frankly speaking, I could not figure out what he was thinking or what he was seeing. He said that soul searching meant he could see everything, my thoughts, my feelings, everything became open to him like a book through his fingertips. He kept moving on until the scene was changed. It was back to the first day of college when I was talking to Nicolas on the side of the road, and my eyes were on the grass, seeing Cole for the first time. During the scene, Cole was listening to my conversation with Nicolas while standing at the back, and he let out a low chuckle. "What are you thinking about?" I asked, and he turned to look at me. "While you were sitting there?" I pointed at him, who
Rayline He caught his breath, and slowly his face lit up as his smile brightened, while I was still on my feet feeling at a loss. The pain in my chest started to kick in again, and I clenched my hands to my chest as I let out a cry. Cole took a step forward, but then looked around and started to back away. Then he looked toward the street and started running. "Cole, wait!" I shouted, but I had to stop as the pain grew too much. My body falls to my knees clutching at myself, groaning as the white all over me starts to swallow me up until there is nothing left. Cole pulled his hand away as my eyes snapped open, and my chest pounded hard as I started to come back to reality, sweat dripping down my face as the tear streaks started to dry. My eyes locked forward as I tried to catch my breath, the agonizing pain finally starting to fade. I could feel his arms around me as he pulled me into his chest. I was pretty sure that he could feel my heart pounding as I sucked in a deep breath, a
Rayline Cole shifted slightly away, his face only inches from mine, and my hand came up to cup the side of his face. "Show me," my breath came out, my eyes darkening. "Show me how sorry you are." His eyes seemed to gleam in purple before he leaned down and pulled me into a lustful kiss. His legs were between mine as his hands rubbed my sides, and I let out a long breath as his lips moved to suck on my jaw. I jolted slightly at his touch, with my hands reaching behind his back and wrinkling the fabric of his shirt. "Oh God, I have missed you," my voice whispered, and his lips lifted back up to meet mine, his tongue slipping into my mouth with a muffled groan. "I have missed you so much, kitten," he whispered before going back to sucking my lips and taking a gentle bite of my lip, and I mewled in return. Then his hands dropped to my waist, his fingers playing with my waistband as his mouth trailed down my neck. He sucked on the smoothness of my skin. A small sting made me moan, but
Rayline My eyes flutter open as the morning light sneaks in from the window, and I feel the warm air caress my cheeks. My mind finally starts to adjust, and I suddenly realize that I'm using Cole's arm as a pillow, and his head is resting against my body, his breath hitting my face with the rise and fall of his chest. He looks so peaceful as he falls asleep, and I can't help but smile as I snuggle up next to him. For a few minutes, I remained lying there before reaching out my hand and gently brushing some of his hair away from his face. He stirred slightly, and I pulled my hand away and continued to watch him. Time passed for a while before his eyes slowly started to open and meet with mine. It took about a minute for him to come to his senses and then he lowered his body and tightened his arms around me, pulling me into his chest in a suffocating embrace, and I let out a giggle. "Good morning," I said, giggling into his chest. "Morning," he said with his eyes closed, his body w
Rayline I walked into the kitchen, with Taylor's loose shirt covering my body as I made my way to the fridge. I figured that he would not mind what I was rummaging through. Meanwhile, Cole sat at the kitchen table as I grabbed some juice and headed to the cupboard for a glass. There was the sound of footsteps coming closer and I saw that Jesse walked in scratching his sleepy head as he looked at the two of us. "Morning," I greeted him, and he nodded slowly, his eyes still squinted slightly, most likely because he was still sleepy. "You two are up so early." Then he made his way to one of the chairs and took a seat. "Yeah, sort of," I said as I walked over to the counter and stood across from where the two of them were sitting. Jesse's eyes slowly traveled over me, then over to Cole, more precisely over the shirtless Cole before finally turning back to look at me again, with his eyes squinting right at my neck. "That was fast." "Huh?" My eyes blinked as my only reaction between
