Eva POV
I was falling for him badly. He was so gentle and mysteriously careful that ironically it turned out that its me who is controlling my emotions rather than him. He plays with Aden everyday, goes to a human office, drinks blood without killing anybody and have even turned humorous. He ensures that we laugh at no matter what cost he pays for it. He was not a devil I knew and if my soul being attached to him makes him different and still one to me then why is our bodies so apart.
I thus decided to surprise him this evening. I wanted to make it look romantic. A night that will make us dissolve in each other. I went back to my room and allowed Aden to play outside. He was playing with the robot with a sphere that humans call ball. Damon had got him that thing to play. Damon is more than just thousand year old and I was born in this century itself about two decades ago. However since we witches had spent our entire life living in the woods and not accepting any human social and domestication, we are not aware of a lot more beautiful things that humans have advanced in.
I brought red roses from the gardens as a depiction of my love for Damon. I broke its petals and spread them on the white bedsheet of the most comfortable bed. I then picked up more roses and attached them to the walls. The roses were thrown at different positions of the room and then I clapped twice. The rose petals flew in air and transformed into a heart shape. I let the rose petals in air so that the moment Damon opens the door, he would see this heart.
I then wrote love letters for Damon and placed them on the bed. I didn't make them fly because I wanted Damon to pick them up slowly. I moved my palm on the black coloured walls and the walls turned sparkling. I rubbed a rose petal on my hand then blew some air through my palm and the entire room was now filled with the fragrance of roses. I flipped my fingers looking at the ceiling and its started raining small micro sized sponge hearts from the ceiling. Till Damon arrives, I will have my floor covered in hearts and my bed filled with my love letters.
That would be really fun to watch him search for the other love letters amongst those roses and hearts. I smiled thinking about it and now it was the time to wait. I prepared myself a sleeveless hot little red frock and curled my hairs. I did light makeup and applied dark red lipstick. I was eager to see those lipstick marks on his body. It is true that when you are waiting eagerly for something, it proves to be delayed. It was a very long day waiting for Damon.
Finally in the mid eve, I heard Damon's car crash at the main gate. He though is acting sweet nowadays, he still tries to overpower his immortality and still plays with these human made toys. I realized that a sweet yet bright smile appeared on my face. My cheeks were burning and I was blushing already.I looked one last time in the mirror and checked everything. My cleavage was visible deeply, my skirt was perfectly ironed, my hairs were maintained and my lipstick was in place and overall I was looking good.Qoth enthusiasm burning in me I ran toaardd the door and rushed downstairs to the living room to see him. I want to know how he would react but...
Damin was sweating badly. He looked miserable. His shirt buttons were opened and he ead half bent down. He raised his head to look at me. His eyes were golden with his blood sucking fangs fighting his werewolf venom. The region under his eyes had those grey stoned veins visible and he was breathing badly. Before I could approach him he said,
" quick everybody out... I am transforming into a werewolf. When David died, He took his powers with him and hence I will turn tonight. I have to chain myself to prevent myself from hurting you. Eva... take Aden safely ", he said.
I was astonished by the sudden turn of events that it was difficult for me to process his words. All I heard was about protecting Aden. I looked at hism and he didn't seem horrified. He had for sure witnessed this sight before too.
" don't worry I'll do something ", I said to Damon after ensuring that Aden is not freaked out.
" there is no time... leave now " Damon screamed above his voice.
" well... well what a love. I am impressed", a female voice was heard.
The lights around started diminishing and turned dark. A filthy rotten smell of tottering vegetables and flowers emerged from the darkness that she had spread. Lavender was here and she was sure to hirt Damon.
" veto... ras luminica", I said and the flash light emerged from my palm.
I realized that Damon was not here and I was standing in complete darkness alone. Not even Aden was here.....
