Devour you
Lena's point of view
I awoke from a beautiful dream in which I didn't want to wake up from . I awoke this time because my heart , head and whole body were alerted to the truth as a hefty arm traveled down .y tummy , I gently open my eyes. A deafening quite engulfed the whole area, making it seems dangerous to make any noise . I stare at the man next to me , even though it was still dark, I tried to recall what happened during the night . Everything that happened last night was reality, there is no combination of dreams . But as much as I want to be joyful , the only thing that envelope my roaring heart is anguish and bitterness in my chest. I sat up and held my knees a little ,tears streaming down my cheeks. I saw Xander sleeping quitely while he was naked.
" Why is it so painful to love you?" I whispered . Because of his purity while he sleeps , I stare at his face as if it were a child of the goddess who has descended from heaven. When he didn't stir , I gathered my robe and other clothes , put them on and dash out of the room . I know I wasn't supposed to go out, but being with he seems like poison to me. Everytime I looked at him , there is a pang in my chest because I know...I know he will never be mine . Despite my heavy feet , I simply ran and ran as fast as I could. I pushed myself to get exhausted . However In the end , I just went home . When I arrived home , I went back to bed and reflected on what had transpired between us Since the first time I met him . I cried and cried till my eyes became heavy and unaware now I fell asleep. I awoke the following morning due to heavy rain , I was surprised to feel a chilly wind which was not unfamiliar to me. I simply grew accustomed to the wind blowing into my crumbling home. As I was about getting up to get a blanket for myself, my body froze as one arm abruptly encircle my waist and pushed his face behind me.
" It freezing outside, where are you going this time?" The rough voice of the guy behind me , caused my eyes to widen even though I really want to take his hand away , all I could do was not move. What is he doing here? What brings him here ? When did he arrive?. A lot was going through my head but as he made my whole body to face him, it were all gone and just the heart thumping remain.
" I warned you not to leave the palace because I will find you wherever you go" he wrapped his hand around me and buried my face in his muscular chest. I couldn't even look at him since my chest was already heaving. Because my bed was so little, I believe he was having difficulties lying down . It much more large and comfy on his bed and his bedroom , so I'm not sure why he need to come here only to tell me that I'm not permitted to leave the castle.
" I..I didn't run away, I only wanted to come back to my house" because of the rapid pounding of my heart, I closed my eyes, u was worried he'd noticed how quickly my heart was thumping.
" Let's sleep" that was all he said before the whole place became silent and only the sound of rain could be heard . I'm not sure weather it was because I was exhausted or because of his warm body , but I slept off as well. I had no idea how long I had been sleeping since when I awoke, the rain has stop but the sky had remain gloomy . Heavy rain may still fall. Xander was gone when I wandered my eyes around , I had a sensation of melancholy in my chest . Im not sure weather it was because it's a dream that he was here earlier or because...he left without telling me.
" Don't inflate your expectations only for one night " I muttered shaking my head.
" To whom are you speaking ?" Because of the loud sound coming from outside , I nearly fall out of my sitting position . When I peek through the door, I saw a guy wearing just a soft cloth below with water dripping down his body. I gulped intensely and returned my gaze to him. He was now carrying a basket and I could see and smell the sweet aroma of food .
" Since when have you been standing there ?" I inquired, a little nervous .
" I just came , I brought you food from the castle . If you want anything to eat , please let me know so I can inform the chef...."
" No " I quickly stop him. He sighed and walked inside . " Just tell them if you want to eat anything because you will be living in the palace. You should learn to make request ".
" I can prepare my own meals"
" Really? Why don't you make something for me then?"
" What...?" In just a matter of seconds, his lips were already blocking my mouth , he deepen the kiss before he slightly step away and spoke.
" If you don't want me to devour you , eat the food I brought". To ease my flushed face , I tightly closed my eyes . I didn't want him to know how affected I was by what he was saying.
" Let me " I grabbed the basket from him and walked over to my tiny table. I could feel him following me right away. I'd want to ask him why he does this things since it feels like it was just yesterday when he maltreated me .
" Why can't you get out of this house ? It fifty and over crowed , how can you remain here ?".
" Blue royal blood like you can not comprehend my reasons . We in the lower echelons, have a totally different life" . He opened his lips to respond but a beta patrol appeared in front of the door and caught up on what he was about to say.
" The princess of the wind winders pack has come my prince !"
