Chapter 101: Scared Of Darkness

Ch101 

Cedric checked the cottage, backyard, and everything for one last time before opening the door. He saw his sleeping beauty was still sleeping. She was tired a lot. She did so many things today. Cedric noticed that her cheek was slightly better. Her pure white skin was looking red because of that slap. 

Cedric can imagine the force Amelia exerted in the slap. He wanted to kill Amelia, but in respect of Valene, he stopped himself from doing it. 

He looked at her sleeping face. She looked so innocent while she slept. But she was such a fiery cat. Smiling he brushed the hair strands from her cheek and tucked them behind her ear. 

Eleanor felt a small feather-like touch on her face. She fluttered and opened her eyes, yawning like a lazy cat to the point small tears formed at the corner of her eyes resembling pearls. Her eyes slit into thin lines as she tried to focus on her surroundings. Wait… this was not her room and not even her bed. 

Did she get kidnapped?

Does she need to call the police? 

Oh my god! 

What does she need to do!? 

Turning her head, she looked at the Greek god who sat beside her. He looked so handsome. Her messy heart calmed down when she saw him beside her. Feeling relieved, she sat up and snuggled into his embrace. 

----

Cedric smiled when he saw her acting like a cat. She was indeed a lazy cat, but a cute cat. But suddenly her eyes filled with panic as she stared around. A frown rested between her brows, showing she was not okay with something. When she turned her gaze to him, he noticed she calmed down and relaxed gradually. 

Cedric realized she was worried since she didn't see him. But her next words stilled him like a rock. 

"I thought I got kidnapped," Eleanor muttered. 

-----

Cedric doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. Now he has become a kidnapper. Sigh… 

If that's how she looks at him. Then he was a kidnapper. The personal Kidnapper of ELeanor. 

"Eleanor… Indeed you are kidnapped by me." he said in her ear. 

"And I want to be kidnapped by you," she said to him, leaving a small kiss on her lips. 

Cedric was stunned at her actions. She was active today. Ahh!

Pinning her down on the bed, he kissed her lips making her sleepy brain turn foggier than before. 

They both breathed in puffs when he broke the kiss. "I want to kiss you longer. But we have to feed the little monster in your stomach. It's growling," he said with a smile. 

Eleanor was still catching up with her breath after he broke the kiss. She held his shirt tightly as if her life depended on him. 

When he mentioned her hunger she felt embarrassed. Her cheeks turned red when she heard his words. 

"Freshen up. I prepared the tub for you. There is a dress in the closet with everything," he said. 

"Including your bra and panties," whispered in her ears huskily, making her heart skip a beat. 

Eleanor gulped seeing his face closer. Her heart was not residing in her chest. She could feel her heart was going to explode any moment. 

"I will take a bath," she whispered.

"Shall I join?" he asked. 

"Dirty Thug," she 'scolded' him. 

"I can get dirtier," he whispered in her ears as he licked her ear lobes. 

"Move," she pushed him away and ran inside the bathroom. Forgetting to take her clothes. 

Cedric just chuckled at her behaviour. After a few minutes, he even left the room and started getting ready for the proposal he started. 

Eleanor was shocked to see the grand tub filled with rose petals and lavender oil. Her mind calmed down instantly.  Stripping herself naked she she stepped inside the tub. She soaked for a while, till she felt all her muscles were relaxed. After that she cleaned herself only to find she had no clothes inside the room. Tying a towel around her body she walked out of the room. Due to the bath her white skin turned red. There was a slight blush on her skin. 

She saw the dress placed on the bed. She thought Cedric placed the dress on the bed, when she saw the closet was empty. With a smile, she dressed up. When she was done dressing up, she came out of the room. Only to see the whole house was dark. She shivered slightly at the sight of the engulfing darkness. Eleanor wanted to scream and run into the arms of Cedric. But she felt a lump formed in her throat. Her body was covered in sweat.

"AHHHHH!!!!!!!"  she screamed at the top of her lungs. 

"AHHHHH!!!!!!"

"AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" 

Cedric, who was waiting for her outside, heard her scream. Quickly he ran inside, only to see the whole house was dark. It was supposed to light up now. Why were the lights still not turned on? Picking his phone he dialed Edwards number. In the next ring he picked the call. 

"Turn on the lights," he said through his gritted teeth. 

"I am trying. But the wire was cut. We are trying to fix it," Edward said.

"She fainted due to the darkness. Make it fast!" he said. 

"Almost done. Give me a few seconds," Edward said before hanging the call. 

Cedric taking a deep breath, he walked forward. When he was about to turn on his torch, the light glowed. Leading the path to somewhere. Cedric set up the led lights which glowed with yellow light making the room brighten up. Kneeling down he took her into his arms. Her petite body shivered slightly showing how scared she was. 

"Shh… I am here. You are safe now. Look at me… the darkness is no more. Open your eyes. See… your Cedric is here," he whispered slowly in her ear. She calmed down as seconds passed in his embrace. 

She slowly looked at him, batting her eyelashes like an innocent butterfly. 

She threw herself in his arms, making him still in his spot. He never knew that Eleanor would be this scared. He regretted this plan. He should have gone with the traditional path of candles. Then Eleanor wouldn't have gone through this pain. 

"I am sorry," he mumbled in her ears. 

"Don't leave me ever," she said in a shaky voice. 

"I won't," he replied. 

He let her hug him for a while till she calmed down. 

Eleanor really doesn't know why she was so scared of darkness, she doesn't even remember that she was scared of darkness. She heard some voices in the background asking her to die and threatening her to kill. Suddenly she saw a dark monster trying to gobble her up. Her legs weakened, making her fall on the ground. Cedric engulfed her in his hug as he whispered her soothing words. Eleanor felt that the dark demon was moving farther away from her when Cedric hugged her. Feeling the comfort and protection coming from him and the relief she got when she realized the dark demon completely left them, she relaxed. Opening her eyes she saw the room was no longer dark but lit with the soft golden lights. She relaxed her body in a few minutes. 

"Thankyou," she whispered to him. 

"I am sorry," she heard him say. 

"Don't ever leave me," were the only words that left her mouth. 

"I won't," he replied , looking at her with eyes filled with love and worry. 

Holding his face between her palms she pecked on his lips before letting them go. 

"I worried you," she whispered. 

"It's my fault," he said. 

"I don't know that I am scared of darkness," she said. 

"Huh?" he was confused at her words. 

"Don't worry much. I have a surprise for you," he said. 

"Show me," she said. 

"Can you walk?" he asked. 

"Yes," he said. 

Getting up from their position, he guided her out of the stairs. The way he led her was filled with the rose petals and the pathway was decorated with the Led lights emitting soft glow. She was awed by the decorations he did. 

As she walked ahead, they saw a small door. 

Opening it, Cedric guided her outside the house. Eleanor didn't see the backside of the house, she only saw the front yard. 

As she walked out with Cedric, she didn't notice a faint smile formed on her face. Cedric who watched this smiled too. 

The moment she stepped out, her eyes only caught one thing. That was a tree. It's a big tree decorated with lights. Few lamps were hanging on them too, making it look beautiful in the night light. Under the tree, she saw a diner being arranged with lots of bowls and dishes. Cedric guided her towards it in a gentlemanly manner, with gestures please. Pulling out a chair, he made her sit in the chair.. He served the dishes on her plate for her to eat.
