Dilemma
708 Words
I was thinking about having dinner outside but as Luke forbade me to go,I sadly sat in front of the window and closed my eyes.
I imagined about my times with Alex.He wasn't perfect but he gave me the exact amount of love I needed.His face made me smile no matter what the situation was.We were perfect for each until Luke Vernon destroyed everything.A tear fell down my face.
Millions of stars illuminated the whole city except for my dark,cold heart.
Alex was a bright and happy person unlike Luke who was dark and secretive.
I leaned my head against the glass.
I heard my door open, followed by a gentle knock
"Lucia?" His cruel yet gentle voice made it to my ears and penetrated through my heart.
I didn't turn around.Neither did I lift my head.
I winced when his warm palm was placed on my cold,weak back.
He sat beside me slowly.His hand never left my back.
"Unhappy?" He asked.I was unhappy.He killed Alex.
I didn't reply.
"Lucia?" He shook me a bit.
"Leave...just go." I whispered.I could feel his slight disappointment.
"Let me take you somewhere." He said.
"I don't want to go." I whispered.He grabbed my face gently and made me look him in the eyes.
I closed my eyes as tears ran down.
"Do you want to go out with Enrique?" He asked.I opened my eyes abruptly,"No." I frowned.
"What do you want to do?" He asked as he leaned closer.I looked down because his eyes take me to a whole different universe.
"I don't want to go anywhere." I replied slowly.
"Look at me." He said.His deep and attractive voice had me under his control.The strong energy that was radiating off of him was enough to make me all weak and vulnerable.
"Do you despise me?" I looked at him deep eyes.His sharp beard and that perfect face.
"What do you want to hear?" I asked as my voice trembled and my eyes welled up in tears.
"The truth." He replied and pressed his lips together.
"And if I say that I do.How will you feel then?" I asked.He didn't reply because he knew the answer.As much as I hated him is as much as how I cannot live without him.
"I just want to see you happy." He said.
"How? Killing Alex didn't make me any happier.Neither did trapping me here did." I said.
"You don't understand love." He said coldly.
"Do you understand love?"I replied angrily as I moved closer to his face.There was barely any space between us.
"Do you understand?" I asked again but this time with tears all over my face.My chest was rapidly rising and decreasing.
Why can't he just simply understand that I hate him? The answer was also simple.It was because I didn't.
It was true that I never understood love.Love isn't something everyone understands but I am pretty sure that this man right here will make me understand.
When I was about to move away from him,he pulled me closer and trapped me in his arms.
I tried to move but he was multiple times stronger than me.
Without any words or efforts,he pressed his lips against mine.I tried to pull away but I realized all my energy and strength vanished when he held me.When his tongue touched mine.I couldn't help but moan.
When he finally pulled away,"What do you want?" I asked harshly.
"To let you know that you are mine and will always be.No one can change it."
I was silent after what he said.He didn't leave the room because he wanted to torture me with his presence.
It was a while now.
"Why are you here anyways?" I asked casually as I hugged my knees.He stood up to leave but I grabbed his wrists.
"Don't leave." I whispered.He slowly turned at me.I could feel his eyes on me.
"Go to sleep.It's late." He said with a genuine smile.
I don't understand.One moment he wants to stay, another moment he wants to leave.His mood swings were terrible.
When he caught me staring at him.He smiled and place a small kiss on my lips.
"Good night." He left.
He left but his scent was still there.Sadly,it soon faded away in the thin air.
