Ambrosia is a ticking bomb

A fire ignited in them, not because they were so lost in the pleasure from the kiss, cause that was far from it, but they were both able to get memories from the other.

Finally!

It finally happened, Ambrosia was about to penetrate into his head and got a glimpse of what he was thinking about.

"Fuck it's happening again. This memories....." he thought but clear enough to her ears.

Trying to dive deeper, the little chance she had was caught short when he pulled away and made her stand straight.

He had seen that same memory. That unpleasant, gruesome memory of hers which he had come to hate.

"The fuck!" He yelled and moved back. " You didn't turn me into one of your people, did you?" He questioned with a deep frown on his handsome face, wondering if the new idea of getting into her head was because she turned him into a vampire.

Ambrosia on the other hand was flabbergasted cause of the victory she finally had even though it was short lived.

All her life, she has always won every battles, but when it came to going into Darren's mind, it's being like a battle. Finally, she heard a little of what he was thinking.

"That memo..." he was unexpectedly cut short when she dragged him down so his face could touch hers and she captured his again.

This time, she initiated the kiss.

Darren held her shoulder and pulled her away from him. "I am not getting anymore of your memories."

Well, she wanted to get into his head and find out who he is. There is no way anyone would touch her and she would fall asleep the way she did when he touched her.

He curled up his lips and licked his lower lips, "Do you want to kiss me so badly? Are you falling for me already?" he asked with an alluring smile. Back to his teasing self even though he was clearly pissed off seconds ago.

Ambrosia rolled her eyes and turned around facing the door. "Do not come after me again."

"Why? Cause your heart would keep beating and you wouldn't be able to control yourself?" He teased to which she looked at him with a deep frown on her face. Just what he wanted.

"I will kill you if you come into my room again." With that said, she walked out of the room, leaving Darren to himself.

Darren on the other hand, sighed deeply and the smile he had on his face slowly faded. He faced the window and looked towards the city.

'I need to end this as quick as I can. Ambrosia is a ticking bomb that would explode soon enough if she doesn't leave this world. I need to up my charm and make her lay with me as soon as possible.' He muttered.

Ambrosia laid in her bathtub completely naked and the water stopping on her neckline. She pushed her head back and fixed her gaze on the grey painted wall.

Her mind kept going to the kiss. What was so special about the ordinary human anyway? She wondered and deep herself completely into the water, covering up her head.

After what seemed like an hour, she pushed herself out. Her black hair covered her face, wet and dripping with water.

She opened her eyes and her irises, a bright red color.

"Darren Vladimir." She muttered out his name.

...

Ambrosia walked done the stairs gracefully with her hands behind her back. Her hair fell on her shoulder, and she wearing a black coat which she buttoned to her knee.

She was about climbing down the last step when Darren called her from behind. He walked down to meet her and stood in front of her with a lopsided smile. He wasn't looking all moody anymore and was back to his normal mood.

Ambrosia knew what to expect and so rolled her eyes and tried leaving again but he blocked her way.

She cringed her face in anger and glared at him, giving him a threatening look not to start with his teasings again, but he waved his hand and smiled broadly.

"C'mon, don't give me that look. I am getting used to it so it wouldn't make me stop as I am not scared of that look anymore. Infact, I now think it's sexy," he said and walked closer to her. "If you keep giving me that look, I might lose my senses and kiss you so much to make you weak that you would not be able to do anything," he whispered into her ears.

Ambrosia remained silent and still had a straight face, not bothered about the words he spoke cause she actually wanted that kiss so she could look into his memory again.

She made to leave but he blocked her way again. "You know, I do find your personality quite interesting. Nothing makes you laugh, neither does it makes you happy. You are always aloof, cold and straight faced. It's really hard to please you, isn't it?"

Ambrosia rolled her eyes and tightened her knuckles into a fist as she stared hard at Darren who was doing everything to make her frustrated and that was really irking her. She felt the urge to throw him out through the window, but held herself, which was a bit surprising to her. She never held back in doing what she wanted or harming someone but there she was, trying to control herself from shutting him up in a way he would never recover from.

"You just rolled your eyes again. You know in my dictionary, rolling your eyes means you want me by your side," he proudly told her even though he knew it had a different meaning. 

Teasing the woman a little wouldn't hurt. He drew closer, until their foreheads were almost touching and smirked, "So the queen of this forest wants me? You just couldn't resist my look and sexiness," he teased yet again.

Ambrosia took hold of his shirt collar and tightened her hand on it, "Leave.... my.... way....," she demanded slowly, emphasizing on each words, as she made sure he got the meaning of what she said clearly and leave the way, but who was she kidding? The man still remained unmoved with that annoying smile of his. He wasn't willing to let her go.

Well beating him at his own game was the way to go. She released her hold on his collar and lifted a corner of her lips, "I can kiss you right now if you don't let go. I found that kiss amazing and now, I want more of it. So if you want to see those memories again, keep trying to get on my nerves."

Darren was taken aback by the sudden response from her. He thought he would tease her as always and she would remain with a stoic face but she did threw a comeback at him.

He drew even closer until he was a breath away and then he questioned, "Do you think I will feel threatened?" He looked her straight in the eyes, "Go ahead and kiss me. We will both end up on my bed and I will give you a feeling better than the kiss."

Ambrosia's eyes were boring into his as if daring him to go ahead. The intensity between them grew as she slowly took her eyes to his lips.
