Chereads / The Beauty And The Wolf / Chapter 29 - My Love

Chapter 29 - My Love

The night finally arrived. It was a beautiful night, the stars are shining brightly in the sky.

The couple stayed in the chamber.

Meanwhile, outside the cave.

Olga arrived first, she hides behind the trunk of the tree, watching the entrance of the cave closely.

A few moments later, Azere arrived as well, wearing a black flowing hooded cloak, she looked around the area and detected her friend's presence behind the trunk of the tree.

Olga watched Azere coming her way.

Azere finally reached Olga's side, she asked. "Have you noticed anything yet?"

Olga shook her head. "I just arrive here a few minutes ago. I didn't see anything or anyone approaching the cave. We're the only people here."

"I see... so let's just hide here for a while. Maybe something will come up later," Azere said and lowered herself to the ground.

One hour passed.

Two hours went by.

Azere was already dozing off.

Olga looked at her friend. "Hey, don't sleep!" she said.

Azere opened her eyes and looked at her. "Why? There's already a disturbance in the cave?"

"Not yet!" Olga replied.

"Then wake me up if something comes up," Azere said and closed her eyes again.

Olga sighed and looked at the entrance of the cave, getting impatient as minutes went by.

Another hour passed.

Still nothing...

But the mosquitoes are getting busy, buzzing around her face and her feet!

Olga got irritated by the mosquitos. She already wanted to go home!

She nudged Azere's arms. "Wake up, I'm getting bitten by mosquitoes and I hate it. I'm going home!" she said.

Azere opened her eyes and looked at Olga. "Why are you going home? You see nothing in front of the cave?" she asked and glanced at the cave.

"Yes. I think whoever or whatever that causes the disturbance the other night won't come today. We've waited long enough already and yet nothing comes up. Let's just do it some other time," Olga said, yawning successively.

"Alright, let's go home then. I'm sleepy as well," Azere agreed.

The two women left the area and teleported back to their respective homes to retire for the night.

A few minutes later, after the two women departed from the cave, the five flashing lights appeared again.

They floated towards the entrance of the cave and tried to enter, but once again they were being repelled by the invisible barrier surrounding the cave. Just like with their first attempt, the same thing was happening tonight.

They made another attempt, five times, yet they fail each time.

Then suddenly... they vanished in front of the cave in the blink of an eye.

Olga and Azere were back in the area after detecting the disturbance.

The two women looked at each other.

"What the hell is going on?" Olga asked aloud.

"They're gone again!" Azere said. Just when she was about to go to sleep the disturbance appeared again and yet when they arrived at the cave to find out what's causing it, they didn't see anyone.

They came for nothing!

"So frustrating!" Olga exclaimed, annoyed.

Azere was fighting the urge to yawn again. "Ugh... I'm so sleepy. Let's just try another night, maybe we'll finally catch them," she suggested.

"Okay, let's go home!" Olga agreed.

The two women disappeared from the area.

Back in the cave.

Inside the chamber. The couple was lying on the bed, Sabrina was staring at the ceiling, while Rhett was watching Sabrina.

The light produced by the lamp cast shadows outside the chamber.

Sabrina looked at Rhett. "Aren't you getting tired looking at me all the time?" she asked.

Rhett shook his head. "Not really. I love looking at your beautiful face every minute, every second," he replied.

Sabrina looked into his eyes. "If we kiss each other, and my face turn ugly, would you still look at me?"

Rhett smiled. "Of course! My love for you won't change just because you suddenly turn ugly. I'm not that type of person who's feelings change after their lovers face is no longer beautiful. Trust me... ugly or not, I will take care of you forever," he assured her.

Sabrina smiled in amusement. "How romantic! You have such a sweet tongue. You are so good in using flowery words," she commented.

Rhett sighed deeply, he was projecting a serious expression on his face when he spoke those words so that she will believe him. But she's not taking him seriously.

Sabrina heard his sigh. "Why are you sighing?" she asked.

"You don't believe my words, right? My confession of love, means nothing to you?" he answered her with questions of his own.

Sabrina rolled her eyes.

"Please stop doubting my words, beauty. You are the first woman that I like so much. I fall in love with you from the bottom of my heart and I meant it. You have no reason to doubt my words," he insisted.

Sabrina smiled. "Alright, I believe you," she replied, just to silence him.

"And how about you? Do you have feelings for me?" Rhett asked.

Sabrina shrugged and pondered about his question for a few minutes. "I dunno yet. Don't rush my feelings for you. It will grow in time if it's meant to be," she said.

"Okay, I'll give you enough time to sort out your feelings for me," Rhett stated.

They looked at each other for a few minutes before Sabrina tore her gaze away from his handsome face and fixed her eyes on the ceiling of the chamber. She was thinking about Rhet's feelings for her. "Maybe, you just like me because I'm the only girl you see while being imprisoned here in the cave. But once you leave this cave and you see lots of beautiful women out there, you will forget about your feelings towards me," she said.

Rhett shook his head. "Ah, that will never happen, my love. My heart only belongs to you. I will spend my whole life loving you. I will never make you cry," he spoke the words with absolute sincerity in his voice.

Sabrina smiled. "You're good with sweet and flattery words. Where did you learn that?" she asked curiously.

"Things like this doesn't need to be learn, it comes within. I feel them in my heart that's why I can tell you those words quite easilly," Rhett said.

"Pfft! Whatever!" Sabrina said. Although she still has some doubts about his intention towards her, she was also aware that Rhett grew up in solitude inside the cave, therefore, he also has no experience with other women other than her.

Hours went by.

Midnight comes.

Rhett didn't wait for Sabrina to shiver in the freezing temperature. He immediately covered their bodies with the blanket and enveloped her in his sweet embrace. "Feeling better?" he asked.

"Yup! Thank you," Sabrina replied in a grateful voice.

"No need to thank me. It's my pleasure to protect you from harm," he said.

The temperature dropped and plunged the cave into freezing cold.

Rhett was loving it because he can enjoy Sabrina's intoxicating warmth all night long. He pressed his body on his softness.

"I can't breath..." Sabrina complained.

"Oops... I'm sorry," he said and allowed a few inches of distance between their bodies. He buried his face on her neck as she gave him her back.

He loves inhaling her intoxicating womanly scent and got carried away, he began nuzzling her neck.

Sabrina froze when she felt his lips kissing her neck. She can feel Rhett's breath fanning her face.

Rhett's looked into Sabrina's eyes, his black orbs were flashing with raw lust and passion. "Let's kiss..." he whispered.

"Kiss me and I'll slap your face hard, so hard that, you will forget my name!" Sabrina said fiercely.

Stunned, Rhett looked at Sabrina for a few seconds, then he burst into loud laughter, amused by her threat. "My love... calm down. Relax... don't be angry anymore. I won't force you, promise. That's why I ask your permission first, since you say no, then I'll respect your decision," he said and pinched her nose playfully.

Sabrina pouted.

"Don't be angry anymore. Let's go to sleep. Good night, my love," Rhett said softly. He planted a gentle kiss on her forehead and closed his eyes.

Sabrina shut her eyes as well.

The couple sleeps peacefully throughout the night, blissfully entangled in each other's arms.
