Hellish Obsession - Chapter 12:Love Bite
Xavier was prepared to feel her lips against his but to wonder, they tracked down to the tattoos on his neck and her teeth bit onto his pale skin without any notice. “Are you really nuts?” With his rounded eyes, he whimpered as he clenched his fists and felt the soreness of his skin that was getting bitten by a silly woman.
Shortly the teeth sank deeper, leaving a mark on his body. “You…” He growled whilst his hands moved her hands from his body and dragged her away, maintaining a safe distance. “Do you wanna die?”
Ave narrowed her eyes and wiped her lips with her fingers. “It’s your skin or a rock? God, I almost broke my teeth.” His skin felt stronger and harder than granite. She couldn’t tell if all men have the same structure since she’s never touched one before.
He cleared his throat and rubbed his hand on the bitten spot. Though it didn’t hurt as much as he reacted, it honestly tickled a lot, more than he defined. “Are you any kind… of vampire? Why did you bite me?”
Her face beamed with a sleek smile as she didn’t see any camera now. They left already. “It’s called love bite. And I just helped them to click a better photo so that they can make a better news.” Her smile grew even wider.
“If you are that desperate, you should have just kissed.” His voice sounded intense as if he really wanted her to do it so.
But little Ave didn’t realize the intensity. Instead, she rolled her eyes and bit her lower lip. “I didn’t want to have my first kiss with a stranger.” She didn’t say it out loud, was a little embarrassed.
He let out a soft sneer. “Are you sure that it would have been your first kiss?”
Hearing him say that, she blazed at him murderously and pointed her index finger at him. “Look at you. You remember what happened last night.” It was confirmed now that he was playing dumb here. But as she promised to herself, she won’t stop. She never learnt to give up, not even on a little thing. “Did you kiss me? Or did I kiss you? Tell me, did we…” She paused and gulped as he brought his face down, just an inch away from hers.
Her heart fluttered, stomach caressed with so many butterflies when he studied her nervous face and smiled dazzlingly. It’s the first time, he smiled in front of her. “I have something more important to tell you, little hazelnut.” He asserted.
“What’s that?” She inquired and locked her eyes with his, stiffened on the place.
“Let’s not meet again.” He stated whilst his eyes watched her pinkish lips that were now trembling.
The close distance was really making Ave hold her own breath. But she managed to endure and keep her chin up. “What if we do?”
“Let’s not talk then.” The reply came out of his mouth so simply like melted butter as he moved away and stood straight.
Ave persisted. “What if we do that too?”
“I won’t.” His firm reply downed Ave’s face.
“What if you do?” She still sounded confident.
“I will do whatever you tell me to do.” He had his eyes squinted. “But I am assuring that I won’t.”
“Why?” She asked in her calmest voice.
“I don’t like tomboys like you. Go away.” With that, he placed his index finger on her little pointy nose and pushed her face away with a sneer.
Ave stood there alone, staring at his direction until he disappeared from the sight. There was a blank feeling left inside. Why didn’t she say anything? Why didn’t she stop him? As she tried to convey the emotions, her stomach crawled. “I am hungry.” She muttered to herself as a soft intake of breath escaped her lips.
