Eve rushed to Edward, to hold him and check his breath. Before she moved, there was a slam on the other door.
"Stop right there Eve, don't even think about moving",Edward was standing at the door and the very instant he was near her, holding her in his arms.
"Ed----then ",she looked down at the slump which so much resembled Edward. She was shivering in his arms not because of his cold body, but of fear. She clutched her trembling hands on him,and stuck herself to him.
"Honey, look at me",he moved his face from staring at the slump ,to his hazel eyes. Those eyes helped her to calm a little.
"Can you hold your breath for a few seconds,"he whispered in her neck ,which made her to crave more of his breath on her warm skin.
"hmm,'' she couldn't frame any words from her whole body trembling. She obeyed him immediately.
"Don't let Until I say",with that he carried her in his arms and ran to his room.
The room was so dark filled with his masculine smell. She couldn't see anything, not even a glimpse of a window to sneak the moon light into the room. She stopped trembling when he laid her on a soft mattress. Probably the bed.
"Stay here and relax honey, you're forbidden to get down from this bed",he kissed her forehead and vanished. She couldn't feel anything around her, except for the thunderstorm outside. She could hear the rain slashing on the windows and thunder falling continuously.
After few minutes,there was a click on the door and the light near her switched on. Her eyes took a few seconds to switch to the sudden brightness of the room.When she could clearly recognize the objects near her, she focused on the man standing in front of her . She flinched the moment she saw him. His fangs where bare and blood seeping from it. His hands and the pale blue T-shirt was smeared with blood. Is he hurt, is that his blood.She was about to get up from the bed.
"Sit still, I didn't tell you to come out yet",his voice was so harsh and yet masculine.
He went to the left of her and pushed the bathroom door open. He shut the door inside and all she could hear was running of the shower.
Imagining him under the shower,made her toes curl and increased her craving for him. How would his chiseled body in the running water. She got down from the bed and went near the bathroom. The floor felt cold under her feet from the thunderstorm. She stood outside the bathroom, in a daze smelling his shampoo which made her senses awake one by one.
When the showered stopped, she ran back to the bed and sat in the same pose she was in, when he left. Did he take any clothes to change inside. What would he be wearing, after a shower. When she looked at him, from down .Thin legs without slippers, they looked more erotic. His legs are long with sprinkles hair, not visible enough on his pale skin. The towel started from the knees and ended along his waist. She couldn't bring out the structure of him underneath those thick furry white towel.
Above those towel was a well made narrow torso with packs of well defined cuts.His hair stuck are little frizzy after a shower.Eve swallowed at the drops of water making its way down from his shoulders to the towel. Don't get swayed honey.
When she met his face, he raised his arms with a smile, "Do I look appetizing " and winked his eyes.
This man is going to kill her with both hotness and cuteness .She couldn't take her eyes off him nor could she bring out words from her well stuck mouth. Before she could move away from his bed,he was on her pushing her on the soft mattress. The bed was too big to accommodate his height.Fortunately she didn't change into her nightdress.He was pressing himself on her like the last time in her room.This time it's only a thin material of cloth separating them.She felt dizzy and aroused at the same time.
He pressed his hands on her belly,and placed his face on the hollow of the neck. He groaned and started rubbing his body on her.Instead of pulling away from him ,She started holding him tightly feeling his pale skin on back.Her hands are not responding to mind to stay put.It started to wander on his back on its own will.He kissed her at the nape of her neck and went up to taste her lips.He was teasing her with slow kiss,When all she wanted was a his freaking desire kiss.She couldn't wait anymore when she started to respond to his kiss holding him on her with her legs pulled around him.
"Please honey,I don't think I can stop this time",He was taking while was holding the zip oh her dress.
"Please don't stop honey",she grabbed his towel which was barely covering him since his fall.
He stopped the next instant,"What did you just say",he was staring into her eyes.
"what",She didn't stop caressing him and pulled closer for another kiss.
She never called him honey. It always be Adonis and now it's Mr Romaro. This is something wrong. She usually smell of peach,and why is she suddenly smelling of lavender.This is quite fishy,he pulled himself away from her and started to undress her.She doesn't protest instead she removed her attire one by one.This is not good.
She's under some drug.But he couldn't recognize what kind of drug it was.Her skin started to go pale.He rushed to his desk and took his phone to punch a couple of numbers .
"Hi hubby,finally you remembered your wifey,Do you miss me,'' came a voice from the other side of the phone.
"This is not the time to play nicky,And for heaven sake behave like my little brother",he shouted out at him as usual.
"Yes sir,How can I help you",he pulled on his mask on his mouth and pulling his strawberry blond hair inside his black cap.
"Help me with a drug",he couldn't take his eyes off Eve.Though her nakedness aroused him enough to ravage her.His concern for her much more than the craving for her.He pulled on the sheets on her very much aware of not touching her.
"You can absolutely rely on this Dr Nicholas De'Casto",he pulled his coat from the hanger and went out of his room.He knew that his brother wont call him out for unnecessary things.
"The persons smells of lavender ,but never saw this person use this much fond of it before,and there is a half flower on her hips which is growing every minute",he went out of his room to let some fresh air into his lungs.
"Any other particular symptoms"
"Sexual craving as if under an aphrodisiac",Nick went down to the kitchen to find some feed for to replenish his energy.
"Gender of the patient",nick stopped in his tracks to find his brothers intentions,
"Is it necessary",he doesn't want to be mocked by his little brother ,for saving his food.Eve is more than a food for him.She doesn't feel like a food.but rather pure and innocent.
"Yes",it's not necessary .He can cure a person without knowing the gender.But he wants to know the person who has broken his saint-hood. Hoping to be an opposite gender.
"Female.human",he doesn't feel like saying more than that.He wandered through the kitchen sipping his drink.
"Is she your feed",if she is his feed then this is not going to be a smooth path.He shouldn't have feelings for his food .That can only complicate things.
"Are you going to say whats the drug or should I find Vervain",this can only bring his brother on tracks.The only thing in this world he's afraid off.
"Have some mercy at your wifey,honey",He gathered the pills from his research room went out for his car.
"Little---brother",he bit through his lips while going up to check in Eve.
"fine,listen.The drug is similar to Aconitum napellus",Nick kicked start the ignition and pulled out of the driveway.
"It's not wolfsbane,right",He stood in his tracks in front of his room door.Deadly poison.
"No but , it's similar to wolfsbane."
"Don't say its a poison"
"Yes it is",He wants to know to what extent his brother can go for this food.Nick kicked on the accelerator doubling his speed to reach his brother's home which is on the other side of the forest.
Edward couldn't move at the thought of imagining Eve die in his arms.He felt as though some ice pierced straight into his heart.He won't let her die.She belonged to him.
"Will she die",he held his breath for the answer from Nick.
