Chapter 48
★★★★
TENEBROUS ~~ AMY'S MANSION
Amy woke up some minutes ago and she's currently staring at the TV.
Carlos left after reviving her saying he wants to get blood.
"His dimple" She gushed and chuckled.
"And his name. Eddie" She muttered palming her face.
"His perfectly shaped jawline" She said again staring into the space.
"The pink lips!!" She squealed jumping up before laughing.
"You're crazy Amy" She muttered and cleared her throat before arranging her hair.
She switched the channel and now descendants 2 is playing.
"Carlos is also hot" She muttered staring at his face.
Carlos is a guy in the movie she's watching.
The freckles on his face made him look so.....hot.
She smiled.
After 1 hr, the show ended and she stretched her body before getting up.
She switched off the TV before getting her phone. She went upstairs and collapsed on her bed.
She went on IG and searched for Cameron Boyce~Carlos. She smiled as she kept admiring his pictures from when he was 11.
"He's so hot" She grinned.
"Admiring someone who doesn't even know you" A voice came from her window and she blinked turning her gaze there.
She gasped when she saw Eddie.
"What are you doing on my window?" She asked sitting up.
"Relaxing" He said and she rolled her eyes before laying back down as she kept scrolling.
"Why are you even admiring him?" Eddie asked and she sighed.
"He's cute and it's so sad he had to die" She muttered sadly.
"Anyways, I'm watching all his movies to mourn his death." She added and he scoffed entering the room.
"Good luck on that then" He said and sat on her couch beside the mirror. His reflection didn't show on the mirror.
"What are you doing here?" She asked.
"I just came to get my jar back" He said and her eyes widened.
"You already gave it to me so it's mine now!" She said.
"I borrowed you. Emphasis on the borrowed" He said and she scoffed getting down from the bed. She went downstairs and went to refrigerator before opening it. She brought out the jar and a bottle with a glass cup. She turned half of the blood into the bottle and turned the remaining one into the glass.
She handed him his jar and she carried the glass which had blood in them and gulped it down .
"Here you go" She said with an eye roll handing him the bottle.
"You drank blood?" He asked and she just stared at him.
"Whatever. Don't borrow something from me anymore when you know you won't be appreciative" He told Amy before leaving the mansion.
"Whatever" She scoffed and kept the bottle back in the refrigerator before going back upstairs.
TENEBROUS ~~ RAVEN'S PEAK ~~ CASTLE
Ava walked into the room breathing heavily. She ran her fingers through her hair.
"No wonder all of them kept warning Lucian about me." She muttered.
"I can't kill him...I won't" She said squatting to the ground.
"But then why did he still marry me even when he knows?" She thought out loud.
She inhaled and exhaled.
The door opened and Ava turned immediately.
"I won't kill you Lucian" She quickly said and he smiled.
"I know you won't"
"But why did you marry me even after you knew I was the one to kill you?" She asked and he itched his brows.
"You want the truth?" He asked and she nodded repeatedly.
"My initial plan was to kill you." He said and she bit her lips.
"After the death of my brother, I hated you and your kind. I knew you were alive and I was hoping to come across you one day so i can end you and your clan. Surprisingly, my wish came true. I saw you unconscious at the forest that day and I used it as an opportunity to get closer to you. I decided to get married to you and win your trust. I wanted you to have complete trust in me so you won't know I planned on killing you" He said and tears filled her eyes.
"Seeing you, made my blood boil. I hated the mere sight of you Ava" He said and a tear drop fell from her eye lid.
"But all that changed the day I saw you cry because of Thomas. I wished to have met him so I could rip out his heart and feed it to the dogs. I wished I could chop him to pieces for making you cry but what could I do? He was dead." He said and she sniffed.
"And when you started calling me hubby, I just acted like I never liked it but deep down, I did. I was your husband after all so why wouldn't I like it?" He asked and she chuckled.
"After that, I started getting jealous anytime Jason comes close to you because I knew he liked you. Apparently I didn't want him to take you away so anytime he makes a move towards you, it makes my blood boil. I never even wanted you to continue going to that restaurant because of him but then I can't stop you. You never listen anyways" He said and she chuckled again.
"It breaks my heart whenever I see you cry because of that low life and it broke my heart more whenever you cry because of me. I never like seeing other guys stare at you because you're mine and mine alone. And then I came to a conclusion, even if I wanted to kill you, I couldn't" He said and she sniffed.
"Why?" Her voice cracked.
"Because I love you" He said and her eyes widened.
She stepped back as more tears escaped her eyes.
"Whenever we went out on late night walks, whenever you jumped on me like a baby, whenever your possessive side acts up, it makes me fall deeper. Even when you were poisoned, I was well aware that you couldn't die but seeing you lifeless made me forget. It got me scared. Really scared because I don't wanna loose you" He said and she smiled.
"You're the first female my inner vampire wants to mate with. And that's because I alone didn't fall for you, even my inner vampire did and it really wanna mate with you" He said and she chuckled.
"You understood me perfectly Ava. You know how to make me smile without even trying. You lighten up my dark world and showed me that good people does exist. In the human world that is. And even though I don't deserve you, I still want you to be mine. Officially and not because of the arranged marriage stuff." He said and she sniffed.
He walked closer to her and stopped when he got close to her. He looked down at her and then he asked.
"Will you be mine?"
She bursted into tears covering her face with her palms.
She stepped back before removing her palms from her face.
"I never knew you would ever love me since my parents were the cause of your brother's death. Even the clan's people, they died because of me and I thought you wouldn't even think of loving me" She said sniffing.
Her eyes widened madly as she looked back at him.
"Your heart....is beating" She stuttered and he smiled.
"You brought it back to life" He said.
"But doesn't that make you weak?" She asked cleaning her tears.
"Love isn't weak. Love can't make one weak Ava. At least not my love for you" He said and she blinked back her tears.
"But I'm destined to kill you" She said and he smiled.
"Destiny can be changed" He said and remembered when Gorya said it.
Now he understood what she meant.
Ava stared at the ground and looked back at him.
"Promise not to ever leave me" She said and he nodded.
"I promise" He said and she smiled before standing on her toes placing a soft kiss on his lips.
"I love you too!" She said and he smiled before grabbing her by the waist capturing her lips.
He bit her lips and she opened her mouth slightly giving him the opportunity to shove his tongue into her mouth. The moment their tongues touched, Ava felt the same wave of electricity she felt at the river before.
He carried her up by the àss and she smiled wrapping her arms around his neck before wrapping her legs around his torso kissing him back.
The kiss became rough again and this time around, she was able to keep up. He started walking to the bed and when he got there, he made her lay on the bed. He broke the kiss and she smiled. His thumb caressed her lower wet lips and his eyes glittered.
"You're now mine" she said and he chuckled.
"Yes"
"Now, kiss me till I become breathless" She said seductively and he smirked.
"Yes your highness" He said and captured her lips again.
His hands went under her shirt groping her soft boobs through her bra.
"Hmm" She moaned into the kiss..
