"Nothing.your joint pain are the consequences of the high fever you ran last night",he wants to bite those red cheeks very badly when she blushed again. He didn't see her eyes, he couldn't lock her eyes when he was lying.
"I won't get this much searing pain from fever in the past",she grabbed his hand tightly to show her loss of patience. She wants to know everything. She doesn't like him hiding
"I won't be lying to you without any reason,''he must escape from her piercing eyes.
"Then what is the reason now",she will know everything she wants to know and won't give up until she knows.
"Reason !",there is no other way to escape anymore and she should know what kind of place she's living in.
"I can say from your face that you are lying from your eyes",though the time span they met might be less,she gets to know him each and every second.
"You look gorgeous",he started caressing his hands on her pale right thigh which kindled her desires in the early morning.She losing her target with his caress.
"Don't change the topic,"She snapped his hands back with a beat and covered herself again.
"Fine what do you want to know",surrendering felt a good option for now.
"Explain what happened yesterday,what was the slump body lying at the door",she could only frame two questions once.He sat opposite to her and started.
"It was a soul eater",he wished she wouldn't ask more.
"Explain more",she's not going to stop at one word answers.
"They are man eaters.They know what you are scared of more and bring them to illusion.they get your emotional state and drain you up",fortunately he stopped everything from happening or else he would have lost Eve and much more in his life.
"Did it try to do that to me",she trusted Edward with her life.She doesn't know where that trust came from,But he is the only person she can rely on in this island until she escapes this place.
"Before that I smelled it, and ripped it into pieces",thinking about that incident is bringing back the rage on the person who wanted to hurt Eve.
"So why can't I remember anything",she searched for some garment that she could tie around her waist.The bedsheet was the only thing she could see in this whole room.
"You were poisoned.The poison which is next to the deadliest one in the world",he cringed through the words .
"Wolfsbane",she remembered it from once, Ally was blabbering about it,since drugs was her elective papers in college days.Ally was a hybrid between technologies and drugs.
"It's a family of wolfsbane.Not kills you immediately but it's a slow poison.It has some of the characteristics of wolfsbane like heart destruction and joint attacks",these are the only things he heard from Nick before he left after feeding medicine to Eve.
"I Would have died yesterday",She shuddered at the words thinking about dying before living her life to the fullest.She have heard of the saying that Life is short.But now it comes to her mind.
"Do you think i would let you die",he went near her and gathered her into his arms.She was sitting on him and he was hugging her like a teddy.She had become a teddy for this child.The hug was all about the fear of losing someone you love the most.She didn't respond for a few seconds ,then hugged him back pressing her against him.
"I'm just your food.Why would you care for me or risk your life to save me",she talked to him in a slow voice,resting her chin at the nape of his neck.
"Remember this Miss Evelyne Jeinro,you might be assigned as my food.There were thousands of food assigned to me,but you are the first person to sleep and wake in my bed beside me.Do you still think I'm using you as my feed",he tightened his hug on her inhaling more of her peach scent which he loved the most.
"Your shirt is too revealing",she pulled the shirt close to her neck ,which slide back again on her shoulders.She blushed at the feel of Edward staring at her with those hazel eyes which is staring to fringe red.
"You are my perfectly edible peach,When can i eat you".he licked her neck and started to lay small kisses from her neck to the shoulders.His hands grabbed one of her hands and guided it to the back of his neck.he started to kiss her sucking her lips more than kissing it.He was kissing her passionately and started to move his hand under the shirt to get in contact with her warm skin.
"Not in the near future",she framed those words between those kisses ,but her body started to respond to him.
"Honey",he groaned at the savioring taste of their kisses,craving for more.
"Do you call all your feeds honey",she pulled him little bit to look into his eyes.The fringes almost covered his eyes which made him look much more sexier and hot.
"No you are the first person.",he grabbed one of her best,which made her jump from his lap.Was he her first.Impossible.Is she a virgin.He doesn't want to ask her ,he can say from her reaction that he is her first.Marking a virgin would be a difficult task,but he has to do it today before dawn strikes.
"Can I go and change",she doesn't look at him .she was so embarrassed about her reaction and making it clear to him about her purity.
"Listen Eve,We have to sleep together by today evening.And I'll mark you as my food.It is just a temporary marking which will disappear after six months.Be ready this afternoon",with that he got changed and went out of the room with in fraction of second.Not even waiting for her reply.
