Esme contemplated his god damn attitude while he was serving her a glass of water hence she kept staring at him.
When she finished the water in a gulp, Aaron preferred to get up and wished to go back to the terrace.
As he stood up, suddenly he heard a soft soothing voice,
" You.. you can stay here.."
Esme mumbled looking away from his sturdy body. Though she strived to make it formal but her face instantly began blushing while telling him to stay.
She didn't mean anything else, did she?
After all, she was feeling terribly awkward after occupying his own place and compelled him to live away in discomfort.
He was the so-called mighty king. What will others think if they get to know that he became unable to live comfortably in his bedroom because of her at their wedding night?
His eyes gleamed in warm contentment. He turned back and noticed her with a blushing, embarrassed complexion as she was struggling to look away from him.
Thus he added intentionally,
" Are you inviting me?"
Esme was flabbergasted and glanced straight to confront him. Indeed he was smirking at her.
Flirting!! Flirting with her again.
Since when did vampires become so brazen?
She snorted unhappily and responded back,
" I.. I was just offering my bed out of respect. I didn't realize that the mighty king Aaron would be so immodest enough to find an alternative meaning of my words.
Oh, indeed. A person who abducts a girl at midnight and coerces her to marry him forcefully won't comprehend the meaning of respect after all. "
All of a sudden the room plunged into silence. Even her shallow breathings could be heard very clearly. She didn't realize when these sharp words slipped from her unruly tongue and involuntarily, she let out so many disrespectful words.
Esme was so aghast that she looked down at her hands to avoid his sharp glare.
True, Aaron was coldly gazing at her little face and silently admiring her courage.
In his whole living life, this was the very first time that a person dared to fling tantrums directly at him for few times within just two days. Since he was young, people always feared him no matter where did he go and served them as a slave of him.
Perhaps he was used to it.
Although she directly affronted him, surprisingly it didn't infuriate him so much.
Soon after her chin was heaved forcefully as he spoke gazing deep inside her eyes,
" Don't speak about me without knowing me.
Who knows that you might fall in love with this kidnapper of yours later on. After all, you will be caged by me for the rest of your life."
Lewd enough!
This was the only word in her mind that suited him.
Oh, oh, oh.. Falling in love with him unless my brain will be kicked out by a donkey.
His enthusiastic gaze remained on her baffled face for a while as she noticed him smirking in a very devilish and overbearing way. Even the way he held her chin seemed so majestic as if he was declaring his reigning over her.
With a swift motion, he gently landed his body beside her and laid down on the bed.
Esme became speechless.
Shouldn't he say something before laying down?
Forget it. She was indeed very right to call him brazen.
Sensing her gaze at him, Aaron slightly opened his eyes before inquiring,
" What??"
Esme stuttered in a low voice,
" You.. you really want to.. stay here with me?"
Aaron slightly raised his eyebrows,
" Aren't you the one who invited me first? Besides, I was wrong. Husband and wife should sleep in a bed together."
He patted the pillow beside him before calling out sweetly,
" Here, let me coax you to sleep wifey. "
She was prepared to refuse his demand but he simply grabbed her shoulder and let her laid down on the bed eventually hugging her in his embrace.
Esme struggled while screaming,
" I can sleep alone.. You don't have to hold me so tightly.. Let me go.. you.. "
Aaron showed no sign of leaving her and whispered in her ear from the back,
" If you don't sleep now, I can't guarantee about not doing anything to you."
Esme froze and instantly ceased struggling.
Aaron smirked!
Indeed it was the best way to make her sober up!
HUMAN WORLD,
they went on fighting for another round until no one conceded defeat thus the bridge violently trembled for their actions.
In the end, Ethan noticed that it was becoming dusk as he needed to return to his world as soon as possible.
He halted when that frantic girl raised her hand to punch him hard but was deterred at midway,
" I think we have come to the end. I told you to release that man but you didn't listen to me. He is gone now and there is no meaning of continuous fighting between us."
Athen scowled at him before blurting out angrily,
" You let me skip my meal. Now it's your turn to be my meal. "
She uttered viciously before revealing her fangs outside. Ethan glanced at the sky and hastily pushed her back before grunting,
" You can never make me your meal with this power of yours. It's better for us to stop here now. Also, I don't have much time left to stay now. See yeah.."
Before she could hold him back here, Ethan vanished in the air in a blink of an eye as she was left behind speechless gnashing her teeth in resentment.
Just stay here a bit more and then I will show you what can Athena do, huh!!
She vowed to herself whenever she will be able to locate this boy in the future, she will deal with him as soon as possible.
It was really becoming dusk.
Thus she also decided to travel back in her world with a messy appearance for those unkempt hairs of her.
As soon as she stepped into the castle of the vampire world, she was halted by a cold voice,
" Athena, stop."
She hissed and instantly closed her eyes in annoyance.
