Sacrifice? Cost ? Demons knew nothing about making sacrifices nor do they know the cost of certain things all they were good at was manipulating, deceiving, luring and hypnotizing their preys into doing what they wanted. They were the most selfish being and only knew how to cause chaos, they knew nothing about love. They were basically lustfully being who wanted nor but lustful pleasure. But for Edward that wasn't the cause, they knew what it meant to sacrifice and to love even though he was the most merciless demon, well he was a pure demon still he loved only one person and that was Elena and reason it was her was unknown to everyone. His willingness to let down his throne in the underworld and come to earth just to ensure Elena's safety tells much about his love for her. But still he was a mischievous, miserable and pitiful demon.
* Opens the curtain *
" Wake up Elena, it's morning " Edward said softly but she didn't respond. " c'mon love , we need to live for Portland early " he whispered into her ears but she still did not respond instead she murmured something he couldn't hear. Bring his ears closer, he clearly heard what she said.
" I want you to touch me " she murmured in her sleep shocking him.
" !!... Is she dreaming ? " He asked within him self. " Love you should wake up now " he whispered again after recovering from the shock she gave him.
" Hmmm " she murmured as she struggled to wake up.
" You should get ready love or we'll be late for our flight " he said helping her out of the bed
" Are we taking a public flight? " She asked still half awake.
" Yes love, we'll be taking a public flight " he replied.
" Huh .... But why? " She asked. She couldn't remember the last time we traveled in a public flight and Edward quite understand her curiosity.
" Well I can't explain anything at the moment but it's for your own safety " he explained.
" Is someone after me ? " She asked again.
" Well .... Not really love , you should get ready " he replied.
" Okay if you say so but ... You must explain when we arrive at Portland " she said as she entered the bathroom.
" I will " he promised her. " That was easy, I almost died from the words she said " he breathed in relief.
* At Portland *
Their fight to Portland was smooth and safe without any disturbance, causing Edward to feel comfortable and a little worried. He had imagined an encounter with one of his many enemies who were now after Elena but nothing of that happened making it a little bit fishy, but he remained calm.
" That was really nice " Elena commented when they got to Edwards house at Portland.
" The flight? " Edward asked.
" Yea, I mean its being a very long time since I actually traveled together with other people you know what I mean right ? " She asked.
" Yes I do, anyway you should rest for now and then by tomorrow you can see your grandparents " Edward said. His gentleness and his warm attitude towards her almost made cry out in joy.
" Uhmmm ... Edward " she called.
" Well my wife, you should learn to address me as your husband. I mean try calling me my husband for once, just once " he said playful as he took off his cloth.
Elena on the other hand was completely mesmerized by her husband's half naked body that she drooled openly without her even knowing.
" Oh heavens, save my pure heart " she pleaded in her heart.
" Elena? " Edward called fully aware at how lustfully she was looking at him without realizing it.
" Err... Yes ? " She answered in a question, covered in embarrassment after realizing what she was doing.
" I said trying calling me, my husband " he emphasized seductively. Heavens knows how hard it was for him to maintain his stand and not pounce on her. " Since I can't touch her, why not seduce her " he thought with a haunting smile on his face, if he was the hunter of course he was , then she was his prey.
* Swallows hardly *
She couldn't understand her body anymore, it was as if she was sitting on a coal of fire slowly igniting an unknown desire within her . Desire that made her heart to race in anticipation but for what? Was what she couldn't understand.
" c'mon Elena, get yourself together " she gave her self an internal slap on the head. " You want me to address you as my ..... My husband ? " She asked.
" Yes love that's what I want " he said closing up the space between them without touching her.
" I ..... I ..... I can't do that " she stammered out. The temperature in the room was slowly raising like a child who has fever.
* Smack's his tongue "
" And why is that my wife ? " he asked as he blows into her ears causing her to shudder from an unknown feeling.
" I.... I .... Am shy " she finally spoke. She has never imagined herself in a situation as this, so she couldn't fathom or find an escape out of it.
* Laughs softly *
" You are shy ? The Almighty Elena is shy. Tell me wife, why are you shy " he asked again. Everything he was doing was to evoke a yearning and longing for him within him and if course it worked.
" This is pure seduction and temptation, a carnal desire I know nothing of " she thought. " I don't know " she managed to reply. At this moment the temperature at increased at an exceedingly intense rate. She could feel her legs shaking and in dire need but she didn't know what she wanted.
" Okay it's fine, I would teach you how to do that soon but for now.... Am eagerly waiting for who would combust first, Myself or you " he replied pulling away from her causing her to open her eyes widely.
" Did ..... Did .... Did he .... Oh my goodness, did he just lift me high and left me there ? This man,he is bad very bad for my health " she exclaimed in shock.
* The next day *.
" Oh my goodness miss Elena it's so good to see you again " Annabelle exclaimed almost hugging her. The last time they both saw each other was on the day she was kidnapped.
" It's nice to see you too Anna " Elena replied smiling.
" You seem happy Elena, that's the joy of being married " Annabelle said.
* Coughs *.
" I don't know what you are talking about " Elena replied hurriedly.
* Scoffs *
" As if I believe you, any alot happened while you were gone " Annabelle started.
" That's was exactly what I was expecting you to say " Elena replied with a wicked smile. She had being eagerly waiting to return to exact her revenge on the Nelson's for what they did to her.
