AryaTears start to flow down my cheeks. I can feel my heart getting shattered into a nothing and I just want to curl up into a ball and cry.But then I notice that Arthur’s steps are slow, like he is waiting for me to catch up.My chest suddenly swells with hope. I know what he said about not putting any pressure on me was reasonable, and I understand why it could feel like he is putting pressure on me, but I don’t feel that at all.That’s what I wanted him to know.Taking a deep breath, I run towards him and grab his hand to make him turn around and face me.A look of shock is written on his face and it seems that he didn’t expect me to follow him, but I take that as a chance to say, “You don’t need to give me time. I know what I want and what I want is you.”The world seems to stop when the words escape my mouth, but it feels like the most natural thing to say. I don’t feel weird about it at all. I feel good finally letting it out, and the longer it goes since I said that, the more
AryaSneaking to my room is perhaps the longest torture I have ever endured. My wetness is making it hard to walk normally, but the pleasure is unbelievable.Meanwhile, Arthur is just walking as cool as a kite, flashing me looks as he leads me to my room. I know he knows how torturous this is for me, and I promise to myself to make him beg when it comes down to it.But all these promises fly out of the window when we finally get inside my room.We stand face to face as I lock the door. I almost run into his arms, but then he stops me and asks, “Are you sure?”I answer him by pressing my lips on hers, tasting his mouth, exploring it with mine. He sighs against my lips and desire pools in my stomach, circulating around my body until I feel that familiar pulsing between my legs.He wraps his arms around waist and pulls me towards him, and I revel at the feel of his body against mine. His warmth is making me wetter. My small hands fly to his chest, massaging it, and he lets out a groan o
AryaWhen Arthur’s warm mouth closes over my nipple, I almost explode.He sucks it, his tongue sweeping over it until I feel feverish. I close my eyes, not even aware that he let go of my hands until he starts to squeeze my other breast. He flicks his thumb over my nipple and I cry out. "Arthur, please!"I can feel his smirk against my skin. He pulls his head away from my nipple and begins to suck the other. My hips are moving on their own. I'm so wet I can feel myself dripping on the sheets. I bury my hand in his hair, moaning loudly.I arch my back to signal that I want more, but then he stops what he's doing and caresses my face instead and I nearly go crazy. I want him to do more but the taste of his lips is making me drunk. His scent is drowning me and I have no plans of getting out of it, or resurfacing, and I can safely say that being lost in the sensation of him is the best feeling that ever consumed me.But he's not done with me, cause before I knew it, his lips are traveling
AryaThe moment Arthur’s teeth sink into the side of my neck, I explode into another orgasm, and this time, I feel like an exploding star, scattering into the night.The connection that we have strengthened even more, and it feels wild to feel that in such a short moment. I cry out, and he hastens his pace, pumping in and out of me as though his life depended on it.I expected the pain to come but there was none. The only thing I can feel right now is an immense pleasure.Arthur lets out a groan, and with that, I feel him emptying himself inside me.The satisfaction that floods me right after that nearly brings me to tears. He almost collapses on top of me but he manages to flip me over before he lands on the bed, and now I’m right on top of him with my face against his neck.“I love you,” he whispers as he tries to catch his breath. “Oh god, I love you.”I smile against his jaw, feeling myself dozing off even though it’s just about to get dark outside. “I love you more.”“Won’t they
AryaChills start to run down my spine. I don’t know what Nancy means by that and I know that it’s probably sincere and it doesn’t have some kind of double meaning at all, but I still can’t shake off the feeling that something is strange and wrong.Suddenly what she said to me before come back in my head, echoing like a thousand screams, about me and Arthur having to go through a lot of challenges to be together.But that can’t be possible right? We just got mated and we’re bonded for life. Surely nothing and no one will get in the way of that.I just smile back at her and say, “Thank you.”Meanwhile, Arthur also seems to be spooked because he whispers to me, “What happened? Why is she looking at you like that?”I signal to him that I will tell him later, and suddenly, Daniel reaches through the table and taps my hand. “Hey, sis, congratulations.”I grin at him. “Thank you, Daniel.”“You know, it’s nice to have you back,” he says. “So I just want to know. Would it be okay to call you
AryaConfusion floods my chest to the point that I can hardly breathe. There are so many questions and doubts running through my mind and I don’t know what to think first. I want to take a pick from one of them and ask it, but for a long while, I don’t know what to say.I look Nancy who is just staring at me with a blank expression and I open my mouth to speak. Nothing comes out.Only when Nancy asks, “Are you okay?” do I snap into my senses and shake my head.“I just. . . .” I trail off and sigh. “Do you see something bad? I know you can sense my future and not really see clearly but . . . I just want to know if there is something bad in my way, and if you can sense it.”Nancy smiles as though to cover it up for a while, but then she lets out a long exhale. “I do see something, but if assurance is what you are looking for, I’m afraid I can’t give that to you.”My heart beats fast and for a second I consider just brushing it off, but then I decide to get it over with. If my fate is ba
AryaPain suddenly erupts in my head, as though a million entities are all in my ears, screaming for help.I stagger back and grab my temples, breathing hard and resisting the urge to curl up into a ball and cry until everything is gone.But then, when I look back at the door again, the figure isn’t there anymore.“Are you okay?” Daniel is standing right beside me, holding my hand and looking into my eye. “You suddenly stumbled back.”“I think I tripped on something,” I say, thankful that I’m quick on my feet when it comes to lying. “I was pretty clumsy. I think it’s because of this big gravel in the driveway.”He lets out a small laugh but he still looks worried. “It’s okay. Just hold onto my arm.”I obey him, surreptitiously looking around the area to find the shadow, but it seems that there is no longer any trace of it anywhere.What was that? Why was it here? Did it have something to do with the shadow or cloud thing that Nancy was telling me about?I turn to her and she looks lik
AryaThe loud explosion makes the whole house shake. The walls groan and the windows rattle. Some of framed pictures on the wall fall on the floor with a loud crash, making everyone in the room flinch.Mom screams and Dad rushes to her and keeps her in his arms as the whole house shakes and trembles. Both Nancy and I rise from our seats, looking at each other.For the first time since I met her, I see nothing but cool and clear determination in her eyes. She nods at me as though to signal what we should do, and for some reason I immediately know what she wants us to do.“No one moves,” I say. “But be on alert to shift or to hide.”“What’s happening?” Mom asks in a shaky voice. “What’s going on outside?”The first instinct is to leave, but something inside me is telling me that what’s waiting for us outside is more horrible. My senses are on overdrive and my feelings for protection are heightened to the point that everything feels like they’re expanding.“Don’t panic,” I instruct them.
