"It looks like you want to see me again." Amado joked to Symla. She swallowed and tried to ignore the reaction of her heart towards him. It was beating wild again. Amado often seduce her, flirt her. And every time she couldn't stand his jokes, she asked him to go out of the cave. Honestly, the problem was in her. She couldn't stand Amado's seduction. She was easily carried away.
But despite his character, every time Amado was alone, she noticed that Amado has a personality that he would just sit quietly and think. Symla wasn't used to see him like that. A part of her wanted to talk to him and asked if he was alright. That's why she did that but what does Amado said? He started flirting again! The man was insufferable!
When Amado came back, he was like that. And every time he sat quietly, Symla silently watching him. She noticed his appearance. He was gorgeous in every angle. Every time he grinned, he looked flirt. Every time he was silent, he looked mysterious. And every time he simply smiles, he looked lovable.
She turned her head and focus. What the hell she was thinking? Why is she thinking Amado that way? Amado was a wolf! She shouldn't think how lovable he was! She shouldn't admire him. He's the wolf who will kill her!
"I want to thank you for saving me and doing everything to make me heal. I know, I owe it to you but it doesn't mean you can brag." She said irritably.
Symla must admit, she didn't thank him for what he did because she didn't have any chance. Every time she tried, he starts flirting with her. He gave a different meaning to her actions. And there she was, pissed off because of guilt.
Amado laugh. Symla started staring at him again. Every time Amado does that, it seems he didn't have any problem. He seemed pure and she loves watching him.
"Thanking me in an irritable tone. What else can I expect from a cranky saint?" he was grinning.
She flushed in anger. "I will never talk to you again. You're so unbearable!" she hissed and get inside of the cave. Ah, she was so angry. She breathes heavily, trying to ease her annoyance. What the hell was wrong with her? She became sensitive when it comes to Amado.
Symla breathe and calm herself. She felt Amado's presence and tried to ignore it. She knew her patients would only reach its limit.
"Black Saint." He called but Symla ignored him. She was still annoyed. She was thinking, she was only concern and what did this man do? He annoyed her. Symla breathe again until he heard him laugh again. "You are easily losing your patient."
She wanted to talk back but she decided not to. It may only lead to something that may lose her patience. When Amado didn't heard anything from her, he sat beside her. Symla's heartbeat starting to beat like crazy. She wondered why her heart acts that way again every time they were close.
"I'm trying to remain silent here. Leave me alone. Please?"
He raised his two hands, giving her the sign he surrender. "Okay, okay. I will stop but first, I want to see you smile."
She looked away. Why the hell she would do that? After what he'd done? He will asked for a smile?
"Please? I'm sorry for everything I said. I'm just trying to make you smile. The moment we've met, you never smiled at me. You didn't even want to say your name."
She exhales. "S-Symla. That's my name," she answered. She didn't want to be called Black Saint over and over. It was like he was pointing every time her mission to her clan. She already accepted her faith and she has a real name that this man should use to call her.
"Symla…" he whispered and sighed. Right there and then, she realized that it feels better when Amado says her name.
"Y-you know the name of the vampire you are going to kill." She whispered. That was one of the things she hated. This man will kill her but he acted otherwise. He saved her, flirt her. And there she was, she felt something strange towards him.
"When the right time comes, you will know why I have to do this," he said mysteriously.
Symla looked at Amado. He was serious this time. He was looking away and thinking again. She wanted to ask him so many questions but in the end, she decided not to. Base on his silence, she could feel that he didn't want to talk about it.
Symla couldn't do anything but to sigh. The idea that Amado didn't want to share anything makes her feel hollow.
