Bella
Soft red satin bedsheets!
That was the first thing my heavy teary eyes registered when I opened them, I was on a bed and it was coloured blood-red with deep black exterior.
Took in the room slowly, everything shouted Danger and dominion! Even the long thick drapes were black …feeling really hungry and thirsty with a mild headache.
I tried to not think of whose room or how I needed up in this room… food before survival.
Shit my eyes at the blinding sunlight that unexpectedly came through the window directly opposite the bed, what now?!
And before my brain could register. I felt him on the bed beside me , I didn't have to turn to know it was the beast … what kind? I'm yet to find that out but I need to as soon as possible.
I need to know my enemy before I can carry on with my escape plan but for the mean time I ignored the buzzing energy radiating in the whole room ,just by his presence and his scent…
"Ignoring me now Angel" he said , not a growl … a whisper that I turned to make sure it was Dracula and oops!
He was naked!
And the delicious sight of my enemy seem to make me forget how hungry I am.
Oh,okay….not completely nacked but he was like shirtless with only a ripped dark jeans that hung dangerously low show casing the sword that brought back memories of the attempted rape case.
A beast , I sighed taking my eyes away from the scars intertwein with the tattoos that covered his chiseled body …almost hairy but no, I'm not checking my enemy out!
I coughed ignoring the pure down there ,hopefully from the hunger not other certain urges that are becoming uncontrollable and annoying!
I must hate him, no matter how hot he and nacked!
The bed dipped as he scooped over to reach me and my heartbeat gave a flip flop
"Don't …please" I whispered too weak to fight.
Dracula's now intense dark eyes held mine with a passion I couldn't explain . He bent low until his face was inches away from mine, his lips was just a bend away from mine…. dangerously too close, I swallowed ignoring his fresh after wash scent.
"After what you saw me do today, you still disobey me? Don't you think listening to me and doing my wish will make things less painful and easier for you?" His voice was soft, low, almost curious.
"Long eyelashes "
"What?" He said taking aback and my subconscious mind smacked my hungry head!
"I meant yes " I said softly
He smiled in victory but my stupid mouth couldn't take it.
"But of course, I will rather endure all the kind of pain this Hell have to offer than bow to you Lord Dracula" I taunted licking my lips and trying to avoiding his moistened ,strong looking lips.
His gaze hooded followed my movements as his eyes settled on my lips then my chest, he closed his eyes and took a breath before moving back while I covered my whole body with the red blankets.
" Angel,tell me how can you know what you prefer if you've never experienced life and living, freedom….? Neither pain..."
He stopped and his face came close to mine, brushing his lips lightly across my mouth, not a kiss but a threat "...nor pleasure."
"Soft" his lips are surprisingly soft for such a …man?"
An eccentric shiver traveled down my spine. My throat was dry, my limbs heavy,it's a good thing I was in bed.
My second kiss and I can't decide which was better…damn it. Wrong thoughts, I will have a lot of confession when I get back to Nirvana with the priest.
"I want to show you both, Angel." He paused, his dark eyes burning into mine ,still close …his scent clouding my senses.
"But I fear you'd rather kill yourself than give yourself to me." He pulled his sword out and put it down beside me.
"You should end your life, take the easy way out, because nobody will come to save you, and I won't stop until I've captured you, body and soul…my very Angel Bella"
It's a big sun in the heavens to commit succide and no, I will never think of that.
"I will be strong and stay alive for my brother ,sister and family!" I said crossing my arms with deviance. He stayed looking at me with an amused smile.
"And my fiancée of course!" Why do I keep forgetting about Raphael,it's bad enough that his name will be dragged with this situation but I don't even miss him…I blame it on the arranged nature of our marriage.
"I doubt if he will still want you" He is right but I won't give him the pleasure of reading my emotions.
Just then, my senses came back to me , his sword was close to me and this is my chance.
Dracula tilted his head, again with a hint of curiosity, giving me the perfect opening . If I want to kill him, I will have to do it now because I won't get another chance.
I sneakily let my hand pick the short dagger -like sword while my eyes still remained trained on Dracula's as his seems to be mesmerized with mine.
Yeah,it's an angel charming magic superpower of charm and enchantment.
Dracula didn't take his eyes off me as he shifted closer to me, climbing up on one knee then the other until he leaned over me.
Wrong move!
I pressed hard into his arm missing his stomach and blood welled to the surface. My eyes focused on the red coating the blade against his skin but he remained unmoved,totally unfazed.
He moved over me making the sword in my shaking hands drove harder into his flesh.
Broke the gaze , my eyes now fixated on the blood trickling down his arm, on its smell, its bright color…the colour of his eyes which were hooded and dark turned bright red with fury.
