Okay, now I am the one pacing about in the room while he is sitting on my bed, looking at me and trying to calm me down.
This cannot be true! I cannot be mates with the Vampire Prince.
What am I gonna do?
Should I run away?
I mean I am good at evading people he surely will not be able to find me.
I look at him and he is staring at me like he would find me wherever I am. No kidding.
Shit. s**t. s**t.
How is he so calm? Doesn't he care about his reputation?
Is he lying? Well, he doesn't look like it.
Why is he still in my bedroom? Why won't he leave already?
I see him roll his eyes. Why is he rolling his eyes?!
"We are mates, querida. I zinged." He tells me after some time.
"Well, not to offend you or anything but don't you think WE have to zing to become mates?"
Oh my, Fly! He is delusional! He is crazy! He will kidnap me and force me to be his mate!! He is deranged! No wonder everyone is so scared of him!
I see him raise an eyebrow at me. He looks a tad bit amused. Why is he amused? It's so out of context here, right?! He IS mad.
"Okay.. Okay.. You're right.. We might be mates.. I mean we ARE mates.. " I try to appease him. I don't want to be the victim of one of his violent episodes.
"You haven't zinged yet because I have to bite you first, surely you know about the love bite, don't you?"
"Oh yes! The love bite! So you're not ma.. Umm... Oh.. Yes." I laugh. Now I sound like a f*****g insane person.
So Of course yes! Our zing cannot be completed until he bites me! And he cannot bite me unless I expressly give him permission with all my heart to do that! That is of the most important Universal Laws we have! Yay! Phew!
I am saved!
I am?
This doesn't solve the problem. We are still potential mates and I am screwed.
"Why are you so worried, querida?"
Because you are a f*****g Vampire King who thinks he is my mate.
"You know I am cursed right? I mean you wouldn't want to attach yourself to someone who is cursed... Has no family... "
"We already are attached, my love..."
I sit criss-cross apple sauce in front of him on the carpet and start crying.
"Can you like stop? Please? Let me admit all this mates business is freaking me out.."
"Oh, I couldn't tell.."
"What?" I shoot him glares.
"Nothing.. "
...
...
"Come here.. " he says and picks me up like I weigh no more than a kitten and places me on his laps. He is huge and when he hugs me, my head is against his chest and listening to his heartbeats has a calming effect on me. I am placated. For the time being at least.
"It's okay querida, you don't have to worry about a thing. I am here now. I will take care of you... " He says and kisses my head. I am feeling safe and it's a feeling I am not used to. It feels so alien but oh so good.
"There-there baby... Right there... You're safe... That's right.."
Umm... Wow... I love how he smells.
"You believe me, don't you? That I love you and I am gonna protect you with my life...?"
His voice is like music to my ears lulling me into a peaceful sleep. Of course, I trust him. He is so nice, so handsome and so good in bed. And he won't hurt me ever... He will protect me from everything out there and I won't have to think and watch out for myself every time.
"That's right, baby, I am gonna love you, protect you and care for you always... "
"Yes... "
I think I will fall asleep if he keeps on playing with my hair, rubbing his warm big hands on my back, and holding me so close to him.
"When I bite you, you will zing with me... Like I have with you... And our zing will be complete and nothing will be able to keep us apart... Not the world... Not the curse and not anything else... "
His voice is so soothing.
I feel him kiss my head, my hair, my cheek, my lips.
It feels so good.
He kisses my neck and that's a sweet stop and I think I hear myself moan a little.
"Do you want me to bite you, huh baby girl?" His mouth is against my neck and every word of his sends sweet tingles right to my private parts.
"Huh?"
"Do you want me to finish our zing?" He licks and sucks the sweet spot on my neck and I think I will pass out.
"Yes... "
I hear a sharp intake of his breath and he brings his mouth down to bite me... To complete our zing...
When a force grabs his hair and pushes him right at the wall.
