Uncanny First Encounter
1223 Words
After hours of awful riding, he finally came to a stop. We are now on an open lake. And he abruptly stood up which made me land harshly on the ground!
I immediately closed my eyes at the pain creeping on my butt. The gossip is right, he is no gentleman! And a pain in the ass!
I opened my eyes to shout at him but immediately closed it when I learned it is his naked whole back I am seeing. I even had a glimpse of his well-shaped ass!
Dang... and that's prettier than mine!
He is already in his normal form, hot and potent. And I am definitely in my very messed up human form. My hair is all over, my face slapped with trepidation, and my heart beating loudly as if it’s gonna go out of its cage.
I opened my eyes again when I heard an intense splash of water and saw him, already in the lake. His lower body fully obscured by the water and the darkness seething in the desolate place whose only light is the moonlight.
I am still facing his back but now I am more confident because his lower body is now covered by water. I turned around to look for a chance to escape but with just one step he immediately demanded a stringent decree.
“You are going nowhere but here.” he said, voice low and jarring. Certainly thicker, lower, and more dictatorial than that of his brother.
I withdrew my step and returned back on the very exact position earlier. My feet placed on where it is exactly at before. “I am going home,”
He darkly turned around me and his eyes look so domineering on my watch that I almost suck all the surrounding air just for my chest because his mere stare is killing me!
“Come here.” he ordered as if he owned my life but I stayed in my position.
Even at my age, I do not know how to swim. What if he drowns me there? No thanks!
“Now.” he demanded again.
You bet!
“No,” I counter back.
His eyes darken more and it isn’t helping that the moon is our only light in this place. It made him look more brutish... treacherous...dangerous. “Do you want me to go there and f*****g throw you here?”
Why am I suddenly with this kind of man?! I was only just celebrating the anticipation of having my first kiss with his brother!
Yet...
I closed my eyes as I ran for my life and jumped into the water.
Damn, these intrusive thoughts brought to me by alcohol are no good!
I had no idea that the lake is too deep that despite my height, I couldn’t reach anything except the unending water below. Where’s the land I am supposed to step into? I squeaked and squeaked on the water, in great panic! Girl, I should never have trusted that pushy thought!
Now here I am... couldn’t even turn and give him a last death glare before I die because I am too into saving my helpless self!
Oh gawd damn, should I die this way?
My body is already giving up after long minutes on the water and I already drank a drum of this lake’s water that I am now out of my breath. I was already pulled down in the deepest part of the lake and just about the closing of my eyes, someone’s strong arm snaked on my waist to carry me up.
I inhaled hard the moment my head is out of the water. I coughed and coughed like a coughing maniac and the moment I can clearly breathe I saw his belittling eyes on me, scrutinizing my state of drowning.
“S-stupid…jerk!” I bickered at him.
His hand traveled on my neck, gripping it hard that I felt like dying again. I am out of air again for the second time on this night.
Oh, what a cursed privilege...
I held onto his hand and looked at him... pleading for my life, to stop him from doing it. It was long until he freed my neck. And it was obviously not because I had pleaded to him.
Again, I struggled for air.
“You are marrying me tomorrow.” he suddenly dropped like a bomb, which made me more breathless as I catch more air due to his earlier choking. He stared still at me morbidly again.
“I can’t believe all of the people, I would have a weakling like you as my mate.” he mercilessly announced, and I literally stopped breathing.
Wait up! I am still suffering here!
A marriage tomorrow and mate?!! That’s definitely a bluff, come on! No one's gonna make me marry because of a death note! I am my family's princess, duh?!
I can’t be my choker’s mate!
“You must be wrong. There’s no w-” I countered but he immediately cut me off.
“I wish I am, because I do not like you so much.”
His eyes traveled on my body and that’s when I realized his brother ripped my clothes up earlier...
I crossed my arms on my chest in embarrassment but then with the way he gazed at the gaps of my covering hands, it seem like he had memorized it all that he could very well see what could not be concealed anymore!
“But damn…you are.” I heard him groan before he craned his neck and placed his lips on mine.
My eyes widened at his rough kisses that I suddenly tasted blood on my lips. I pushed his hard chest out of me but he effortlessly pushed my back on him, like nothing...
He stopped after a long while when I couldn’t breathe for the third time again.
Again…I struggle to catch my breath.
Damn...
“Go away from me,” he suddenly ordered.
I blinked twice. What the hell is wrong in his head?!
And what's even maddening is although I want so so bad to get away from him, I freaking can’t!
“I can’t,”
His eyes darkened at my opposition so I continued!
“I obviously do not know how to swim back there,” I annoyedly reacted before he could even choke me up.
His eyes return back to its normal weight. Suddenly, his palm is on the sides of my waist as he swims fast, back together on the shallow part of the lake with me. He rudely removed his hand from me when I achieved a flimsy touch to the nearest wooden path.
Thank heavens when my hold slipped, on my tiptoe was a land!
“Try going away and I’ll kill you.”
He told me to stay away from him and now he said I must not dare to go away or else he’ll kill me?
Am I the one drunk or him?
I haven’t heard a gossip of how pointless he is before so I guess once I escape from him, I would freaking spread it to the world! Now all I have to do is to find an opportunity to escape him without dying. He can’t be serious about marrying me tomorrow. That’s a bluff!
