RIVER AND MOONLIGHT

As I continue to feel him doing what he is doing, I feel more insane. Oh, Moon Goddess! I want more! I'd like to burn even more!

"Hmmm... Mino," I murmured to him, as if I like what he was doing. I couldn't stop myself from frantically touching his hair, as if I wanted him to apply more pressure to his bite on me. I'm ablaze! I bit my lower lip because I couldn't control the noise I wanted to create with my lips.

When he reached for my exposed breast, the flames grew hotter. Damn! Is this how it feels when someone touch it? I was really taken aback since I was completely enthralled by what he was doing to me. His bite did not cause any discomfort. All I can think about is how thrilled I am! The heat I'm feeling is no longer normal. I have a feeling that smoke is about to emerge from my body. What exactly are you doing to me? You are driving me insane!

He continued to caress my breast, as though he was likewise quite captivated in my body. Damn! I wasn't sure if I was going to stop him because my body is already hypnotized or begged him to keep going. After a while, he lifted his fangs away from my neck, revealing his gorgeous face. He gazed at me carefully, his fricking blue eyes glowed with passion. Lust for my body! Desire to accomplish more and stoke this already burning fire. Damn!

He was about to lower down his face and kiss me but-

"AHHHH! MY HEAD!" he exclaimed, suddenly rising and falling to the floor. I was immediately stunned by what suddenly happened to him. What in the world was that? I instantly rose up in bed and saw his body lying on the floor. As he shouted out in agony, he grabbed both hands around his head.

I got down quickly and approached him. His body trembled once more, precisely as it had before. I made him release his grip on his head because he appeared to be hurting himself. I removed it with my strength, but I caught sight of his gaze. It reverted to its former color.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME! YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO CONTROL MY BODY!" he said angrily at me. I have no control over his body. What exactly does he want to say? He clung to me and bit me; I had no control over him. He does that all by himself. I was even more surprised to see that his fangs had vanished, as if he had reverted to his original form.

What exactly is going on in his body? I couldn't figure out what was going on with him either. But I could smell his mortal scent. Shouldn't he have evolved into one of us? Why does he still appear that way? What's going on inside his body? This mortal is causing severe headaches in my brain. I have a lot of questions, and the situation is becoming worse.

"Mino, stop it! I didn't do anything!" I yelled as he shoved me away from him again. He angrily sat himself on the floor and battled with my grip, which I let go of. I'm not sure why he's so unpredictable!

"STOP CONTROLLING MY BODY TO MATE WITH YOU! YOU CAN'T USE ME!" My mouth immediately opened. Me? Controlling him so he will mate with me? He is the one who is driving me crazy. He is the one who bit me all of the sudden? Why am I to blame for everything. I didn't do anything.

"You're not listening! I'm not doing anything to you!" I insist, firmly, that I am innocent. I'm not sure what happened to him. He just acted strangely.

"YOU THINK YOU CAN SEDUCE AND CONTROL ME? DON'T USE YOUR DIRTY MAGIC ON ME!" he exclaimed forcefully, as if he hadn't heard from me. I was ready to scold him again, but my eyes widened when he quickly sprang up and jumped out the window in a swift movement.

SHIT! He will die for what he does in this high castle! I looked out the window right away. He truly irritates me. As he approached the ground, I rapidly moved my hands, and he was promptly caught by a branch of a tree I had manipulated. His body even rolled away from the branch due to the force of his fall.

SHIT! He is committing suicide. I quickly saw how he handled his fall on the branch and subsequent roll to the ground. Suddenly he started running away. Damn! Fortunately we were no longer in the palace of our kingdom before he could think of fleeing, otherwise it would have been a tremendous problem.

I immediately clenched my fist out of sheer annoyance at his gesture. But I had to chase him. I wasted no more time and at my speed I went through my room and changed into thicker and neater clothes so that I could catch up with him better.

I then jumped out the window and was caught by a branch that I had manipulated. I can smell him, and he couldn't stay hidden for long. Fine! If you wish to play, I will join you. I'm not the type of princess who has a lot of patience.

I quickly caught up to him, but I concealed behind a large tree. Because of intense running, I could clearly see him halting and gasping for breath. He surveyed the moonlit forest. Trace in him the bewilderment as to think on what direction he will run again to get away from the forest I built.

I quickly considered what I would do to teach him a lesson about what he was doing to make my head hurt. At the same moment that my eyes warmed, the flowers in the path shed light, as if showing the way he should go. He no longer hesitated and walked down the path lined with bright flowers.

I quickly moved to another tree to have another look at him. He began running again in order to flee as quickly as possible. The flowers kept shining, guiding him as he walked with a little running. I moved to another tree to observe him once again.

We're almost there, just a little more mortal. I immediately grinned since he was approaching the spot where I wanted him to cross. And with my last move, the flowers on the road lit up again, and he rushed quickly then after that he yelled.

When he abruptly fell off a cliff because of following the glowing flowers, I burst out laughing. I heard him crash into the river below. This river was one of the things uncle and I had built earlier with the borrowed power from mother.

I instantly commanded for a huge vine to approach me, and I sat down on it before proceeding to the cliff he had fallen into earlier. From where I sat, I could see him submerging in the vast river. You deserve it since you irritate me. Cold water may wash away your stubbornness.

I couldn't help but chuckle once again. I felt a surge of joy at having accomplished anything like this. It's also fun to pull a prank now and then. I'm in the midst of enjoying myself and my glory when I notice he hasn't yet come up yet. Where is he? He'd been there a few minutes, so why wasn't he floating or swimming up?

I immediately ignited my eyes to see him in the water, but he appeared to be already at the deep end. I know how deep this river is because I've bathed in it earlier. I waited a few more seconds in case he float, but I was taken aback by my own nervousness.

Entrante! Does he know how to swim? I didn't waste any time and quickly removed the thick garment that is covering my thinner nightgown. I didn't like the feeling of my thick garments getting wet, so I took them off right away. I stood on the vine I had been sitting on before and leaped into the river.

As I hastily plunged, I was immediately enveloped by the cold water. The bottom was very black since there was another cloud obscuring the moon's ability to illuminate the bottom of the river. When I couldn't see him clearly underneath, I became alarmed. Entrante Vreihya! What foolish thing did you do this time?

I swam quickly to look for him, but even though I felt my eyes fire up and get brighter, I couldn't find him. Where are you Mino? I can't tolerate my uneasiness. I turned around to look for him, but there was no one there. It seems that karma returned to me because of what I did.

I swam deeper, and the surroundings darkened even more. If Mino had gone much further, it would have been difficult for him to swim up and breathe. This area of the river appears to be excessively deep. Fortunately, the river does not have a strong current and appeared calm now, or I would have had a more difficult time finding him.

When I swam to the bottom again, I was utterly possessed by fear because he would die if he got this deep. It is rather far from above the river. Mino, where are you? Please show yourself! Please come out, I promise I won't do it again! I glanced around again, but I couldn't find him.

We, vampires, don't need to breathe under water, so I can stay here for long, but I am worried about him. He is human, a mortal, and he can die this deep and for this long without oxygen. I would not have made fun of him if I had known he couldn't swim.

I'm just creating problems for myself. I'm unable to overcome my nervousness. Please, Mino, where are you? I promise to treat you well when I see you, so please show yourself!

I intended to dive deeper even though it was getting darker, but I shouted under the water as someone suddenly grabbed my feet. In horror, I hastily backed away, but I could feel his grip on my feet tightening.

Mino? Is it you? I gave up resisting. I immediately swam a little faster to get closer to him. I was astonished when he suddenly pulled my waist with his left hand and then placed his other hand on my neck.

I tensed even more as his body quickly clung to me and I felt him suddenly suppress a kiss on me. My eyes widened at the unexpected press of his lips on mine.

My heart immediately raced, especially when he opened my mouth as though pleading for air. I also realized what he desired. He can't breathe and has to obtain some air while our lips are still in contact. I could feel the tension of his kiss as though he was really thirsty.

Damn! My heart beat violently as I felt the slowing of his kiss as though he was persuading me. I had lost my strength and seemed to want to stay where we were.

When our surroundings suddenly lit up, my eyes widened even further. His eyelids were even more closed, as if he was savoring my lips. The Moon Goddess lent us her light so that I could see him better.

My nervousness increased as he gradually opened his eyes. And they gradually transformed into the dazzling blue that drove me insane. He carefully drew his face away from me while still clutching my waist and neck.

I could see him staring at me under the moonlight. How is this possible? He is still stunning even though we were beneath water and only the moonlight served as our light. In my eyes, his appearance was even more perfect. Is this how it feels to be captivated under the calm water and moonlight?

I couldn't hold back anymore and I was the one who pressed my lips into his this time. I felt his surprise but soon he returned it with a slow and persuading kiss. We exchanged gradual movements and I could already feel the movement of my legs to push the two of us up.

I could feel us slowly moving upwards, but our lips stayed locked together and gradually moving to respond to each other. I gradually felt as if someone was pushing my feet, which accelerated our elevation. We were eventually out of the water, but we were both standing on some sort of platform with our lips still linked.

We both felt exhausted for a few more seconds before our lips softly bid farewell to each other and I opened my eyes. When I noticed his blue eyes staring at me, my heart began to pound.

The moon is so bright, and our skins are both gleaming. Despite the coldness of the water, I felt warmth for him. I just felt that we were standing on a large vine. We were both hesitant, and our bodies had drifted away from each other.

We each take a deep breath and avoid staring at one other. I'm at a loss for words. It's as if I just want to jump again and hide. I also felt the chill of my body due to the wetness.

But I couldn't help but notice the seemingly intense look of two pairs of eyes. I was completely taken aback by the mortal who had just kissed me sweetly. When I noticed the kind of stare he had, I quickly looked at my body.

When I realized my thin nightgown was so tight to my body, my eyes quickly widened. Because it was wet, it clung to my body even more. His stare caught me off guard right away.

"What are you looking at, human?" I questioned, crossing my arms across my chest. He quickly averted his gaze and coughed, as if embarrassed by his stare.

But the exposure of his lovely body in mortal apparel drew my attention as well. I had never realized that water could make a man more gorgeous than he already is. My gaze appeared to be focused on his wet shirt and the muscles that it clung into.

"Why are you looking at me as well?" he asked, crossing his arms across his chest as if mirroring what I was doing. I immediately blushed and laughed weakly since it appeared that I am about to rape him.

Only now do we appear to have the opportunity to keep our heads cool and the conversation from shifting into a fight. It's wonderful to feel this way. The water appeared to sweep away all of my concerns and questions.

"Let's just sleep tonight, please, I'm exhausted," he stated quietly, which drew my attention to him. His eyes returned to normal, indicating that he was exhausted and needed to rest.

I don't know why but I smiled at him and nodded softly.

"Let's save the fighting and arguing for tomorrow," I said and he smiled at me. Damn!

I think those smiles are cute!
