Chapter 172 [Bonus chapter] Wild Imagination
“Would you let me feed on you for a few days?” Hazel gulped as she did not know how to answer that.
She had seen how the girl had felt when he held their hands and drank their blood. He was the one drinking the blood, yet she had felt that the girls had gotten intoxicated with his actions. Would she want to feel the same?
What if she lost in her emotions and confessed to him. She would lie if she would say that she did not love him but she knew even if she would propose, he would only deny and it would only make things awkward between them.
After all, he had brought her here to leave her for forever.
“If you are not willing, then it is fine too. You do not need to..” he could see the reluctance in his eyes and for some reason he felt a bitter taste in his mouth in spite of knowing how much she had hated vampires since the time she had come here.
“No! I just.. Would it hurt too much? I do not like the pain, needle gives me.” she pursued her lips and lowered her head with embarrassment..
She looked so much like a cute innocent girl that she hardly looked with that glare and sarcastic comment that Rafael did not realize when a genuine smile formed on his lips.
“Have you not tried it before? Though it was only for a second. No matter how much I drank, the pain would be only that much.” holding her hands, he rubbed her palms as if trying to assure her.
Truth to be told, he could have arranged the blood. He had his men around who gave him information from time to time.
Or he could have just flown to the town and picked up some random person but he wanted to have her.
He wanted to have her in his arms and then taste that.. No! Even though that was wrong, he wanted to have her once more before letting her go to have her so-called freedom.
“Alright then, I will try my best to serve you.” her hold on her dress tightened.
For some reason those words felt too strange and a strange image formed in front of her closed eyes.
She saw herself entangled in a bedsheet without any clothing while he was above her. His fangs were dug deep inside her skin while his body was rocking at a fast pace. She was moaning hard while he had a strange expression on her face as if he was having pleasure.
Her hands were entangled in his hair while his hands were on her bare hips. His nails were digging deep into her skin as if he was using that as leverage to enter deeper into her.
His eyes were closed but..
Though she had a tear in her eyes, she was looking happy and sensuous. No! She shook her head hard. What kind of dream was she having?
How had she gone this far when he was just asking to hold her hand and have a few sips. No! Come out of that dream before she started feeling hot down there.
Her legs closed the gap and stuck to each other while she covered her eyes as if it would stop her wild imagination from seeing those kinds of scenes.
“Are you okay? If you are still tired then rest a bit more.” His confused voice filled her eyes but she was so embarrassed that she did not know how to reply.
If he would come to know what she was thinking then he would surely think of her as a sultry pervert.
“No no! I am fine. More than that, we will reach the palace in a minute. We are already in the royal garden that the royal mother had prepared under her vigilance.
It is her favorite place to spend time. I have often seen her taking a walk here while sitting on the terrace with Anne.” She recalled how she had often complained to Anne that she even wanted to go there and spend some time.
She felt alone in the palace and wanted to see how the flowers bloom. That was when Anne had offered that they would grow a few flowers on their terrace too in small pots.
She had always tried to do everything to console her and make her feel better. If she would not have been with her, then she was not sure if she would have been able to maintain her sanity.
She wondered how Anne would react when she would see her after a long time. Would she be as excited as she was?
How happy Anne would be finding that she had brought a gift for her. A smile formed on her lips unconsciously imagining her thrilled face.
Like sisters, they would sit and talk all night on the terrace like before. She was the only one she wanted to meet genuinely.,
“That Anne you talk about, is she your friend or maid?” asked Rafael as he remembered the report he had received from his men.
“Hmm, she is my only family. So calling her maid would be rude. But you can call her my family.” she replied in a tender voice finally able to raise her head and see his face again.
She was relieved that she was not fidgeting or blushing anymore nor was she imagining strange things while looking at him.
The name of Anne had done wonders again.
“If possible, I want to meet your only family too. Maybe she did not hate the idea of meeting a vampire like other humans.” more than that he wanted to meet the girl who was able to hide from his men when they have never failed before.
“Of course, when I was about to get married to you, she was the only one who had told me that I would do fine and one day I might fall in love with you.”
