Candela

“I’ve been waiting for you, My Candela…”

Those words coming from someone’s very familiar voice was enough to leave Candela breathless. She is palpitating hard. Seems like her lungs wasn’t functioning well as it couldn’t supply her enough air to breath.

Sensing Lord Blade’s body behind her was enough to make her mind goes crazy. Is it not that she’s going crazy because of knowing that Lord Blade was the one who sent her in the woods. Rather, she’s going crazy because of unknown feeling creeping and invading her thoughts. Oh, holy moly! She might lost her sanity…

“What takes you so long?” she heard him asked but instead of answering it, she remained silent.

That’s at least she can do to refrain herself going panic. But after few seconds of thinking, she realized that she is a total dimwit!

Why staying silent when she trained herself for this kind of situation right? God, from time to time, whenever Blade is around… she lost track. She lost her capability to think properly. And that was a problem, right?

‘A problem that I think is hard to solve. I’m so fucked up, one big time!’

“I thought you are not going to come. Fortunately, the raven I sent to you was trained enough to deliver such letters,” he spoke again behind her.

“Let go of me,” Candela calmly ordered but inside? Is she really calm?

Well, her heart that’s beating erratically betrayed her. She was betrayed by her own heart.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Candela breath out. “I said, let go of me, Lord Blade…”

To her shocked, instead of pushing her out by Lord Blade, he pulled her closer to him instead. Her eyes almost popping out as she gasping for some air. Oh my God!

‘I need to breath, bullshit!’ she shouted at her thoughts.

“Why would I follow your commands when you are the one who is obligated to follow me? Was you missing something, My Candela?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Lord Blade. I just want to go back to the castle and escape from you,” she answered.

He laughed at her mockingly, still hugging her from behind. And for fuck sake! Something is poking right there… right between her thighs. And for strange reason, the sensation causing by that thing is eating her alive.

“Lord Blade, let go of me. Will you?” She started to struggled against him but to no avail, it was no use. Lord Blade is indeed stronger than her and she hates it.

She hated the fact that she can’t do nothing but to yelled at him. As far as she remembered, she can knocked down Owen who’s almost have the same building as Blade but this prince? This scumbag prince is consuming her strength by just doing nothing.

The fact that Lord Blade isn’t hurting nor fighting her right now is already enough to make her crazy and confused. She’s well trained right? Then how the fuck she’s struggling to freed herself from his arms?

“What can you say about my invitation, Candela? Was it surprising to know that I was the one who’s now holding the silver knife you stole from me?” She has severe goosebumps.

How could Candela forgot that? Yeah, that was the main reason why she’s here… in the woods with Lord Blade on her back. She’s going to meet that someone who stole the knife from her. And unfortunately, the thief was happened to be the just the real owner of that knife. Dumbass!

“Was this your bait so that you could have your reason to kill me? If it is, then go–kill me,” she said.

Then, she felt Lord Blade’s arms finally freed her. She instantly put distance from him and turned to face him. She shouldn’t be surprised because it wasn’t new for her to see his face. But not now. Not now that she’s looking at his face that is being kiss by the moonlight.

The light coming from the moon reflected on his eyes making it more brighter red. And his face? His face just happened to be irresistible under the moonlight.

Lord Blade’s side lip twitched. “Loving the view, milady?” he asked and to no reason, she couldn’t restrain the seduction. She nodded on his question… yeah, she just nodded. Candela just admit that she’s really loving the view.

“You could have all of me, if you just said so. Besides, I can’t reign myself too to make you mine.” And with that, using his vampire speed, Lord Blade cut the distance between them.

The last thing she knew was his lips crashed on hers. And as if the lord is turning her into docile puppet, she turned back and surrendered to his lips. Candela just clung her hands into Blade’s nape as she fighting back to his kisses that she couldn’t resist.

It seems like everything goes to slow motion, turning Candela to savor every part of Blade’s mouth. It was a lip-locking kiss. A battle between her tongue and his tongue. She should stop, that’s what her mind telling her. But her heart… is saying different thing.

Her mind maybe don’t want what is she doing but her heart is cheering her. Causing Candela to kiss Lord Blade even more. The prince didn’t disappoint her as Blade turn their kiss into a wild and free french kiss. Then, when she felt his hands slowly traveling her body, she moaned between their forbidden kiss.

Seconds passed, Lord Blade leave her lips and his lips travelled down her neck. Nipping and sucking it but she didn’t make him stop. She enjoyed his tongue, his lips on her skin. As when she enjoyed him, her eyes shut closed tightly when she felt the familiar pain in her neck.

Candela cursed constantly as she felt him sucking her blood as well as her skin. Did she gone too far? Does she forget the true identity of this prince in front of him? Blade is the one who almost drain her blood last time and now, that moment seems to be repeat again.

When Lord Blade sucked more of her blood again, Candela let out a long scream. She thought that she’ll going to passed out but when Lord Blade spoke, all her strength was bring back to her.

She just found herself sucking Lord Blade’s neck also. And yeah, under the moon, they were both exchanging their blood. They let the moon witnessed their forbidden ritual… and that was marking each other.

Candela’s eyes started to watered. Later on, her tears begun to dropped from her eyes. She can’t accept what she is doing. Fuck! She just can’t accept the fact that she let her enemy’s child to marked her.

What about her plan? What happened to her revenge? Her promises…

She must to stop this but when she’s about to pull out from their marking, Blade stopped her. He looked at her eyes, deep and intently. The kind of stares that possessing unexplainable intensity. And her heart, her heart just seems reacting. Her heart goes thumped thumped.

“Now that you marked me, I’m all yours, Candela. And now that it was clear to you who owns you, you are vowed to me on your lifetime. You only belongs to me, no one should own you except me. You’re mine, Candela Rio. Since I laid my eyes on you, I know… you were that girl who’s destined to me. You’re mine, understand? Mine alone…”
