Katerina and Her Darkness

Chapter 24

'Nice king.' I said smiling a little.

'He was, definitely a great king. Yet, it was hard to control their blood lusts. Many Vampires ended up being murderers. They were cursed forever. The faces of those innocent humans will hunt them every night, every day until they die. Which is why lots of Vampires don't sleep at night.'

'Ok...' I felt back getting wet with sweat. Even though I'm not hot. 'Then, is it true that when a Vampire bites a human...'

'Yes, and no.' He said and smiled faintly. 'When we are only drinking from a human, nothing will happen. But if we release a type of venom into the bite, that human will fall into a deep sleep and when they wake up. They will be one of us.'

'Does it hurt? Do you know? To turn into a Vampire?' I asked and rest my chin on my knees.

'Well... You wouldn't have to worry. Tobias will never turn you so.'

'Why?'

His smile vanished and a wave of emotion that I can't read flew across his face.

'Cause he's selfish.'

'What?'

'You can ask him yourself someday, ok? It's not for me to say.'

'Um... Then, where do you think I can find information about me? Like, you know? If I'm a witch and...'

'You're not just any witch Katerina!' He said and looked at me straight in the eyes. 'You are the Queen of witches, The White Queen. You deserve to know! Your destiny...'

But he was interrupted.

'That's enough!' Ardwyad shouted angrily and rushed into my room.

He grabbed my wrist roughly, forcing me to stand up while I winced in pain.

'Did he do anything to you?' Ardwyad said, his eyes studying my face.

'No, we were just talking. Getting to know each other.' I replied.

'Getting to know each other...' He laughed coldly. 'Great job cousin. You always want to steal her from me. Even though you freaking know that she's mine. Mine!'

His voice sounded like thunders before the storms.

'She's not anyone's property.' Kevyn said, his face is cold and numb like the first time I met him. Giving nothing away.

'Oh, I see how this is going! You're the good guy, I'm the bad guy. The only reason Katerina got hurt 1000 years ago, you got hurt, Flame got hurt, was my fault.' The earth began to shook beneath us, the air around us grew thick. So thick I can barely breathe. His eyes are black, pure dark. He let go of my hand and covered his face with his hands. 'Right? I know! I fucking know! So you don't have to keep being nice to me. I've only been looking and wishing for one thing. My mate. I only need her, no one else. I give a...'

'Are you even hearing yourself right now, Tob? Look at yourself! Look who is here... Katerina is standing right here. All you are doing is making her scared.' Kevyn shouted back.

For about 5 seconds no one talked.

'I'm sorry.' Ardwyad said quietly and slumped down unto the floor. His legs are bent and held close to his chest. His head buried into his crossed arms.

He sat there not making a sound, in the middle of my room.

He looked weak and needy. Like a lost child. My heart ached to see him like this.

I walked over to him and placed my hand on his left shoulder. That's when I noticed he was shaking. I don't know. If he was shaking with anger, pain, grief, or because of the sudden drop of temperature in this room.

'Don't touch me.' He whispered.

I was just gonna move my hand.

'I might hurt you.'

Then I sat down next to him and hugged him as tight as possible sideways.

'I know you won't.'

'I'm dangerous.'

'No. Don't ever say that again...'

There was silence again.

'Katerina?' Kevyn called, his voice sounding like a sigh. 'I'm gonna go. Take care of my cousin.'

I nodded.

'Ardwyad?'

No answer.

'Please look at me.' I said and tried lifting his face up. But his head doesn't even budge. 'I'm gonna go.' Then I stood up, and when I was just about to turn around to leave.

I was pulled back down unto the floor, with Him on top. His arms on both side of my face. My legs caged between his.

I held my breath.

'No. Not again.' His voice comes out deep and possessive. His eyes capturing mine, locking them.

'You know I don't mean it that way...'

Then I felt his lips on mine. I didn't know what to do. I never kissed anyone before. At least as Elizabeth. His lips were soft and perfect.

I moved mine against him, copying everything he's doing. I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him closer. Our body moved in unity as if we've done it millions of times before.

Time seems to stop.

Maybe this is the feeling to be falling in love? Maybe this will be my 'Happily ever after' romantic story. If Crystal was reading this book will she vote for it?
