The bright yellow rays of the sun shine brightly on her face making her to startle her from her slumber. Her head felt light and her vision was blurry. She couldn't figure out where she was. Teshmian tried to get up but some hand gently grabbed her and placed her back on the single bed that was spread with clean white bottom sheets and her head relaxed well on the pillow.
"Take it easy you still need a lot of rest to regain your strength."
That voice sounded familiar; it was Lucian. Teshmian had heard that voice several to know too well that it was Lucian's. Immediately she guessed she was at Lucian's place. At first she was startled but then she began to relax. Lucian noticed Teshmian stru6to block the sun rays and pulled the curtains close and turned to leave the room.
"Don't leave , Lucian" He felt Teshmian hold his hand.
Lucian went back and sat beside her.
"Lucia...."
" shhh " Lucian told her as he caressed her hair.He handled her with prudence until she went into a deep slumber.
It was early summer so he covered her with some light sheets. Lucian decided to freshen up before preparing some breakfast for Teshmian. Hamnish had been there early in the morning and had mentioned he would pass by later to pick up Teshmian and take her back to Bolivia.
Lucian was busy dicing some carrots as the muffins baked in the oven,when Teshmian approached him in the kitchen. She had fully regained consciousness. She had worn some shorts and a baggy hood with a basketball drawing on it. The hood had covered the shorts revealing her intoxicating thighs . Teshmian gave him a rather quizingly look.
"No,No ,No,don't give me that look. You don't have to worry,my female friend did everything."
He told her this as he set the breakfast table . He didn't even look up to her face . As he was placing the napkins on the table , Teshmian held his hands and he pulled him aside . He stared directly into his eyes before uttering a word.
"Lucian I love you,"she broke the silence that had paved it's way in the room
Lucian almost chocked on those words . He just shrugged and said that he knows . He thought Teshmian was saying this on a light note.Teshmian just gave him a solemn look before protesting.
"I am serious,I want you,I want to be yours forever. Lucian I'm really sorry,I know I have really hurt you in the past but I've realized my mistake. You are the one I want to spend my life with."
"Teshmian you know I have waited for this day and I will be the happiest lad if you accept me but I don't want to force you into something you don't want."
"You aren't forcing me Lucian,I want us to be together;what part of it don't understand." Teshmian almost shouted.
Tears started flowing from her eyes an she let her head rest on Lucian's chest. Lucian held onto her tightly.
"I am sorry."
"Lucian I want you for real."she murmured admist her sobs
Lucian held her small,smooth face between his hands and gave her a gentle kiss on her lips.
"I was always yours. I was just waiting for you to make me yours fully."
Teshmian felt very good . With just that light kiss Lucian had kindled some feelings in her heart that she had never experienced. Hamnish interrupted their moment. He cleared his throat noisily to announce his presence which left Teshmian and Lucian startled a little.
"I'm glad that you have regained consciousness because I am here to pick you up."
"Sorry to interrupt you but since I have already prepared some breakfast I was hoping you you could have some before you left,"Lucian stated trying to be friendly with Hamnish.
"It's a nice after bu....."
"We'll have breakfast then leave ," Teshmian interrupted Hamnish rudely,"right , Hamnish?"
Hamnish just gave her a protesting look but had no choice. He couldn't defile the princess' order. They sat down at the dining table and everyone ate in silence.
"Wow! I see some competition for my cooking skills," Teshmian complimented before excusing herself to go change .
She was at Lucian's place and didn't have her clothes . She went through Lucian's closet to look for something she could fit into. Finally! She found some cute,black cargo shorts and an extra baggy t-shirt that she could put on . By the time she was done,she had made a pretty mess in Lucian's room. She just shrugged and put o on the latest brand of sneakers and left.
Teshmian was looking gorgeous drop dead in that outfit. Lucian couldn't take his eyes off her.she snapped her fingers Infront of his eyes bringing him back to reality .
"Bye and I think your room needs some cleaning. I made some witsy tinsy mess ."
Teshmian had just stepped out and Hamnish pretended to forget something inside.
"Stay away from Teshmian if you really care about her," Hamnish told Lucian with a stern look.
Lucian didn't understand whether that was a threat or a request but either way he wasn't ready to loose Teshmian. He vowed to have her and protect her at the same time. Hamnish left but left Lucian thinking on how he was a danger to her when he could even lay down his life to protect her.
"Teshmian please listen to me ,your life is in danger."
"Hamnish, I told you not to interfere with my life and you aren't my dad to tell me what to do or not to do,"
There was a heated argument between Teshmian and Hamnish. The subject of discussion was Lucian and it was evident that Hamnish was trying his best to keep Lucian and Teshmian apart.was Hamnish telling the truth or was there something he was hiding. Nobody really knew what the secret was.
"Hamnish for the last time stay the heck out of my life. All this years I have survived without you so stay within your limits."
"Teshmian,yes you are my princess but I'm your elder and I know more tha..."
"To hell with your advice , just leave me alone. Get out of my room!"
Teshmian changed the door behind Hamnish as he left feeling defeated.
It was six o'clock in the evening at Teshmian sat on a rock beside slovaki as she watched the setting sun over the lake. She was thinking how she ended her life . The wind hit her making her shiver with cold. She had forgotten to carry her sweater, but then Lucian came sat beside her and offered her his jacket .
"Teshmian all I want to say is that if you have a problem that is bothering you , you can trust me .I'm here to share your happiness and your pain to."
"Lucian do you know how the Angelic undemonic world came to me?"
Teshmian told him about her mother the queen angel and her quest to revive her both. She asked him about his dad and he told her that the devil was just in unconscious state , and he can be revived by an angel's and demon's blood. Lucian assured Teshmian not to worry , they will figure a way out .He escorted her home and kissed her goodnight before leaving.
