Both of them play in the cold water. They swim and laughed together.
"Stop it!" she shouted covering her face, Eustas began again splashing water in her face.
He laughed and hide underwater. When Helliana opened her eyes she didn't saw Eustas. She started to feel her heart beats fast and her eyes widened looking for him in the wide river of Breathe Forest.
"Eustas! Eustas! Where are you?!" she shouted again but now in nervousness, "Eustas, please! Answer me! Where are you?!" her voice echoed in a tremble.
She is about to swim when someone is holding her foot to stop. In a second, he came out from the water and hugged her from the back.
"Did I scare you?" he whispered and kissed her bare shoulder. "Now I know that you can't live without me." He smiled and pulled Helliana down to the clear water. They stared at each other intently and slowly pushing their faces closely.
Her arms wrapped behind his neck when their faces touched each other, her legs follow. Their breaths are from each other. The warmth they created under the water is what they are feeling right now.
After sharing the sweet passionate kissed they smiled and swam up.
"You are a truly naughty vampire," she said when they finally in the land with their wet bodies, holding hands, "You scared me, I thought monster get you or you leave me."
"No, not gonna do that. I cannot leave a beautiful woman like you. Let's go, let's eat."
"Change your clothes first, Eustas. You might catch a cold."
"Alright!" he responded. "I'll change with you inside."
"Ah-ah-ah! No, I'll change first."
He pouted his lips, "But, baby? You said I'll get cold with these wet clothes," he said like looking at what he is wearing.
Helliana's forehead crumpled, "And baby, It can wait. Okay go, change first," she answered jokingly and stepped aside giving him the way.
"Oh, you called me baby too. That's unusual of you, I feel loved." He gave her an amusing smile and held his chest.
She s*****d his arms and says, "Can I change now? You are slowing my time." She raised both of her brows, so Eustas rubbed her head and nodded.
"Yeah, baby. I'll paint you after, okay?"
"Yes, Eustas. How many times do you have to tell me that? I don't have memory loss," she answered using her calm voice. From the morning until the afternoon he's always saying about painting her.
"I am just reminding you, Helliana. I am too excited to draw you," he stated and pursed his lips into a sweet smile. This is not imagined anymore but true.
He sits at the side river waiting for her, he's throwing stones going to the middle place, they have been together for 2 weeks and it makes him sad knowing that they will not see each other for a long time.
"I can still visit her in her home, I think that's possible but I still have pieces of training to do so I could protect her from darkness," he said in his mind.
While Helliana is changing her clothes her thoughts are flying.
"The day is coming where we will be separated, I still didn't tell him about myself. Do I have the guts to confess the truth?" she sighed. "What if he will leave me knowing that I am a wolf? I can't take that." She started to cry inside, imagining what will happen to them, she started to love the whole of him, "I realized that vampires are not really bad, they are good inside." She stopped thinking when Eustas called her.
"Still not done? What took you so long?" he asked curiously, "Yeah, girl thing."
"I am done, are you cold?" she asked back when she gets out of the tent.
"Yes, baby. I am cold, will you please let me have your body for body heat?" he pleaded and acted like he is sick matching weak and squinting eyelashes as he touched his neck, "Aw! I think I have a fever."
She facepalms and shakes her head looking at him with a disgusted look, "You looked odd!" she rolled her eyes and walk through him, pushed him aside, to dry her clothes, "Stop acting and change, Eustas."
"But---,"
"No buts. Okay, then. Let's rest and you'll not paint me because you are sick, is that fine?"
His upper eyelids raised and stare at her like what? I hide an amusing smile looking at him blankly back.
"Hellia---,"
"GO AND CHANGE!" she shouted loud as thunder that makes Eustas heart jump for and bit.
"Yes, yes, I'll change now," he answered and ran inside the tent, she sighs and looks at the blue clear sky.
"Such a cute dumbass," she mumbled as her cheeks burned, "How can I leave you like that? I can not even leave you for a second and not seeing you." She plays her fingers and waited for him to come out. He said he's going to paint her. She saw all of the artwork he did, so she can proudly say that her boyfriend, mate, Eustas is really a good painter.
Lovely Breathe forest is really magical, It is here where love started, companion and friendship. Those big trees, blooming flowers, peaceful rivers, cold breeze of the air, and all living creatures it complete it perfectly.
"What are you thinking?"
"I am hungry and let's eat first, will we? You are excited to paint." I faced him and hold his hand. I fill in the spaces between his fingers and it fits perfectly.
"Yeah, I forgot. I picked fruits earlier, cherries, and mangoes."
"Really?" she asked and he nodded to respond.
"I actually hide it," after he said that he laughed, "I will be supposed to surprise you but my mouth slipped." He covered his mouth and nibbled his lips.
"What for? You are kidding me. Where are they?" Helliana couldn't help herself but to laugh as to what Eustas do, "Surprise me in this forest? That sounds cool," she commented.
"Wait up," he let go of her hands and goes behind the big tree. She followed him to see what he is gonna do.
She waited for him to moved and in a second, he started to dig in the thick dry leaves that are in the soil.
"You hide it, really?" she asked happily while shaking her head. "I can't believe you, you did that just to surprise me."
"What wrong with planting fruits under the soil?"
"Nothing is wrong but your head thinks too much. How did you hide it that fast? I didn't even saw you doing that."
"Well, you know my abilities." He winked and picked out the fruits.
Vampires can move fast, that is why.
"Wow, looks delicious, Eustas." Her glistening while looking at the ripe fruits.
"Just for you, baby. I looked for it when you are still sleeping,"
"Aw, my sweet, Eustas. Come here!"
He leaves that fruit and comes to her arms. Helliana gave him a warm hug, "You love making me fall in love with you," she said, leaning her head in his neck.
"Did it work?"
"Yeah, is that why we are still here?"
"Yeah, I wanna make you fall in love with me deeply first before letting you go. I can't stand thinking that you will gonna be with another man."
She hugged him tight and laughed, "Me too, make sure not to be with woman vampires. Oh! The fruits!"
One of the ripe cherry snatched by the squirrel. They looked at each other and laughed hard.
"That naughty squirrel."
