"Hmm, I never knew that the steak tastes this good!" All Hazel wanted to do was to stab the man with the fork but she wondered if he even had blood in his nerves and would he die by this small fork?
She started at the fork which had a piece of meat in it disappearing in his mouth and came out empty. Who had said that vampires did not eat much since they only eat for taste!
Look at him! He had already finished a plate of steak yet there is no sign of him ending the meal.
Not only her, but she could feel the eyes of every man on him, yet he was acting so oblivious as he asked her to feed more.
"I want to taste that too!?" he leisurely pointed at the piece of lamb and then blinked his eyes at her! He was acting so coy that she wondered if he was really the vampire lord!
"Sure! My lord!" plastering a forced smile on her face she cut the piece of lamb and brought it again towards his mouth when her own stomach grumbled.
Though the sound was too low and was completely hidden by the music, the eyes of Rafael twinkled.
Fuming, she gritted her teeth when she noticed that he was enjoying her torment and pressed more force on the fork this time as if she wanted to pierce it on his tongue instead of feeding him with it.
"Hmm, I want to have that one too!" gulping another piece he pointed at another dish and so as continued until she was tired and even the fake smile was cracking from her face.
When he was sure that she was not going to continue it even if he offered her life in exchange, he finally let her go and raised his hands.
Picking up the napkin from the table, he spoke in a soft voice,
"I think that would be enough! You can have the rest!" a sigh of relief escaped her lips as she nodded with much vigor. The lost energy of his body returned as she finally could put something in her own mouth too.
She even forgot the count of how many times her stomach growled and grumbled to get her share of the meal.
Most of them had already stopped eating and were only waiting for them to finish!
With a smile she turned to take her first bite when she noticed that he had eaten almost all of the dishes leaving nothing behind for her except a few boiled peas!
Her face cracked hot lava and seemed to form on her head. Steam started to rise from her nose and ears as she turned to stare at the man with a death glare.
She did not care who he was! If she was going to die, she would just hold him and die so that they both could perish together.
"There there! Do you want me to feed you now?" he asked in a soft voice as if he was oblivious to the reason for her anger.
Just as he said so, he picked the same fork she had let go of after feeding him, and took a single piece of pea in it and brought it closer to her mouth as if it was the world's more delectable dish,
"Say ahh"
"......" aah my foot! She would rather kill him and eat him than having this boiled piece of pea.
"I think I am full just by feeding you!" she replied with a strained smile as he raised a brow but then nodded.
"Hmmm, you are such a loving wife!" without pursuing the matter he let the fork go that surprised her since she was sure he would not stop annoying her.
From the first day, he was leaving no matter what to make her berserk!
"Since the meal is done! Let's have our first dance so that others can start too!" without waiting for her response, he held her hands and pulled her from her seat.
She wanted to deny by making another excuse but when she saw that everyone had already stood up and was waiting for them to move forward, she let the words die in her mouth and followed him to the stage.
He continued to walk while holding her hands lightly in his until he reached the center of the stage and then brought her hand close to his face and kissed it gently.
Though his lips were cold, she felt a sudden warmness feeling all over her body. If it might be because he was the only man that had ever kissed her and came in contact with, she felt a sudden electric bolt and heat rising all over her body whenever they came in close proximity.
She felt like her body was longing for his touch! She shook her head at that foolish thought! She never knew that she was so perverted to try to come closer to the first man she would find even if it was a night creature.
"A penny for your thoughts, my dear wife?" she came out of her thoughts and raised her head to see everyone was waiting for her to start the dance.
"I am only waiting for you to start, my lord!" very conveniently she put the whole blame on him again as she blinked her innocent eyes that gave her soft face a frail look and he chuckled.
"I should have already known! My wife did nothing without my permission!" he shook his head as he hold her waist and took the first step and she soon followed,
"You do not like to eat peas. Huh?" she was not expecting that he would ask that just when he would hold her in his arms and she nodded her head instinctively.
But when she was waiting for him to pass another comment, the man did not speak further as if he was lost in his thoughts already!
"What a queer man!"
