Selene , I heard a voice from behind me .
I knew that it was Damon's voice . But what was he doing here , wasn't he eating with Levina.
Selene , he called again and l finally turned around.
Yes duke...l mean Damon .
Are you okay . You don't look alright . Is there anything that is not to your liking.
Wow , was this really the rumored devil duke prince. He was so calm right now .
Am fine, am just getting used to everything around here . I said looking around the garden to avoid his intense gaze on me . Why was he looking at me like that.
Okay if you say so but if there is something or someone who you don't like you can eliminate them. The way he said those words sent a shiver down my spine. He can change any moment.
Yes , l will .
I Said softly.
Let's sit down , you didn't eat anything at dinner.
He had brought some fruits and snacks for me to eat and just looking at the food made my stomach grumble.
I didn't realize that l was hungry until now . I guess Levina's presence spoiled my appetite .
Damon held my hands and led me to the bench in the garden.
His hands were calloused from probably holding swords and heavy training but it gave me a warm feeling and my cold hands warmed up.
We sat beside each other .
Eat up . His masculine voice vibrated and l heard it very clearly since he was sitting near me.
I began eating my food slowly . The garden was silent and only the sound of my heart beat could be heard in my ears.
My heart wanted to jump out of my chest. This was the first time I was sitting very close to a man apart from my step brother.
His spicy smell mixed with lavender filled my nose and l felt dizzy from our proximity. What was happening to me right now l could not understand a thing .
And l could feel his gaze on me and l was burning from the inside . Why was he staring at me so much.
Ahhhh , l flinched when Damon tucked a strand of lose hair behind my ears . His fingers on my skin was like electricity.
Ohhh , am sorry if l scared you, Damon apologized for touching my hair.
No , it's fine . You just caught me off guard.
Hmmm. Can you tell me more about you . He had already investigated about Selene but he wanted to confirm from her .
Ah,,,,,,,,,, there isn't much really to say .
I want to know the little. Damon said and turned to fully face me . He removed the plate from my hands and placed it on the table .
I became nervous all over again. I clasped my hands together.
Well , my mother died when l was ten years old . So l grew up with my step mother. That's all . I didn't want to be reminded of my stupid family.
Oh , that is sad . Sorry for that . He said looking apologetic towards me .
It's fine am used to it now .
Okay , so what are your hobbies.
I guess , l like drawing and cooking.
That's nice , l would love to taste your cooking. He said with a soft smile on his lips . His teeth were white and beautiful.
I will cook for you some day .
I will be looking forward to it then my wife .
The way he called me his wife made my heart excited and l lowered my head down to prevent him from seeing my shy face .
Are you blushing wife.
No am not blushing, l said trying to stand up from the seat but he held me back.
