"How many times did you bite me? Hmmm?" she asked while caressing his hair. Eustas is now laying in her diaphragm calmly. They are resting coming from Lovely Breathe's forest.
"Probably 10th times, baby. Why did you ask?" he asked her back as he holds her hands and inserts his fingers in between her fingers, "It suits perfectly." He commented while looking at it. Living in the same place makes his feelings deepened more.
"Then why can't I see the two marks?"
Eustas kissed her hands and say, "Because after 1 hour it heals by itself. You didn't need to cure it, baby."
"Really? Why? It is not like normal wounds? Like scratches from the ground and arrows..." She wondered but Eustas gave her a shake of a head that means it is not.
"It's because that is what we called to make love, biting you means I love you," he sweetly said which makes her heart beats fast and loud. This is the second time that she heard him saying those magical words, "Wah! I can hear your heartbeat." He laughed and level his ear in Helliana's chest. He pursed his lips to be silent to hear it again.
"You made it beat that loud, you asshole." She pinched his ear and sit.
He groaned, "Aw! That's hurts, baby! Why do you have to pinch me?" he asked while touching his ear. He is now pouting his lips like a baby. Helliana is just staring at him.
"What we are gonna do next? When are you going to paint me again?"
His face softened and think about it, "Can we just lay down here the whole day? I don't wanna be out, baby. Just wanna hug you and kiss you." He hugs her tight. He doesn't have an appetite to go out, this is their last week. He can not waste his time looking and strolling around, "I'll promise to paint you tomorrow again, but for now please, let us stay like this because next week would be the goodbye." His voice softened.
She started to feel an ache from her stomach that runs up to her heart, she looked away and say, "What are you saying? We can still send a letter, Eustas." Her voice cracked when she heard that Eustas is sobbing, "Hey, are you crying?" she pats his back.
"Eustas, talk to me."
But he didn't stop sobbing, Helliana feels his tears when it drops in her pants.
"Eustas, please. Yes, we can stay here the whole day, we'll talk and tell a story." She said in a soft voice. She didn't want him to be upset about going apart, but now he is crying as they will never see each other again.
"Wait...I am still crying, baby," he said in laughter even his voice is shaky. Helliana shakes her head and cupped his face.
"Hey, look." She commanded and trying to look into his blue eyes.
He didn't look at her straight but looking down. He felt shy that he let Helliana see his weakness whenever someone is leaving him. He feels like they will never be back like his mother Teresa.
"Eustas, please." She insisted, wiped his tears and smile. She never saw him like this, not even other people but he reminds him of her dad.
"W--what?" he asked silently. He is sniffing.
"How lucky I am meeting you, you remind me of my dad. I prayed for this to happen, having a man like my father." She smiled sweetly when he saw him staring at her directly in the eyes, "He cried whenever I am sick, and now you cry because you think I am leaving you," she deeply breath in and out, "Communication might be not too fast but, I can promise you to send a message, we should promise that will see each other again, Is that alright?" she is trying to comfort him not think other things for now.
"I'm sorry, I acted like a woman. I shouldn't cry." He shook his head.
"Crying doesn't make you a woman, It does tell me that, you are a tough and good man. Can I hug you now?" she asked while smiling, wide arms for him.
Contentment tiptoed in Eustas heart. The ray of happiness is from her mate, Helliana.
He wrapped his arms at Helliana's back and lay down.
"I love you, Helliana. I am afraid you will meet another handsome man like me then he will-----," Helliana shut him up.
"Shhh...stop talking nonsense, you will just hurt yourself. And there is no more handsome like you, you are different, my vampire."
"I just love you that I can take seeing you with another man," he sincerely said and pout his lips that touch Helliana's neck.
"I will never have another man, I trust you, so please trust me too. I loved spending the rest of my life with you," she stated from the bottom of her heart and kissed his forehead.
"You know that I will never cheat on you right? Even we are more than 2 miles apart."
Helliana's eyes sparkled and giggles, "Let see, then I will pull his hair when I see her," she said jokingly and laughed.
Eustas laughs echoed, "What? You will pull her hair? I thought you will give her a scratch on her skin," he said in laughter.
"Yes, will you let me drag her hair until she will reach the sun's ray?" she added.
Their laughs become louder.
"No, no, I will never let you, Helliana. You can just slap her, you are so harsh," he answered. Their laughs become the rhythm in their ears. They forget about leaving each other in time, "I won't let your hands touch a dirt."
"I am not harsh, she will deserve it if ever. Flirting my vampire. You are mine," she said softly and hugged him possessively.
"Yes, I am yours, baby. And you were mine too. I already marked you, remember?" he asked happily and lick her neck.
"Yeah, many times. Are my blood enough to you?"
He stopped what he is doing and says, "Yeah, my mate's blood is delicious than animals' blood." And start licking her neck again.
"I thought we will just lay down and talk? Why are you licking me now?!" she raised her voice but na in anger.
"Making love is included in laying down next to each other, baby," he grins and raised his both brows in happiness.
"Aissh! You are so naughty vampire, Eustas."
"Not so, just naughty when I met you. I am now addicted to you, Helliana."
He let go of her neck with a red spot in there. He leaves a kiss mark and caresses her stomach.
"I love you, always remember that."
"I will, that is what I am holding like a trophy," she said and kiss him passionately, "Important word you said to me."
After a second, the passionate kissed their tasting went deeper and deeper. The breath they take becomes less than usual.
Eustas hands roamed under her shirt up, down, and round direction.
Helliana silently moaned as she felt Eustas warm palm touched her stomach.
The body moved and now Eustas is below Helliana's body.
