The Tears of a Prince - Chapter 262
“The fact that from the very first moment I saw you I thought you were the most beautiful being I have ever seen. You being kind too is really unfair.” He flattered him and Soran chuckled, surprised with his response.
“Is that so?”
“I think so, yes.”
“John?” Soran called him.
“Yes?”
“Should we date?” He asked him, leaving John with wide eyes and a racing heartbeat.
John blinked, his expression freezing as he tried to process what he had just heard. He couldn’t believe it, he thought, there was absolutely no way that Soran would just suddenly ask him to date. He sat up, looking at the vampire who stared at him with a faint smile trying to understand if this was some kind of a bad joke. If it was, well, maybe he could hate Soran one day after all.
“You’re joking.” John mumbled, his confusion showing on his face as he looked into Soran’s dark orbs. The pale vampire mimicked him, sitting up and reaching his eye level, a gentle expression on his face as he prepared to speak.
“Would I ever joke about something like that?” Soran asked him, tilting his head to the side but he received no answer. John remained quiet, not knowing what to believe or what to think. It could still be the effect of the drug, he could actually be dreaming, there were many different scenarios in his head but Soran actually wanting to be with him wasn’t one of them.
“I don’t know what to think. You kept rejecting me, again and again so I don’t get why you would, so suddenly, want to date me.” John told him once he managed to utter a few words. He kept thinking, possible outcomes when his eyes widened again, the little scar on his eyebrow moving as he raised them. “Do you pity me?” he asked Soran, the question being as hurtful as a knife wound but he had to know. “Do you pity me after what you saw? Is that it? That’s why you want to…” John said, speaking fast, unable to even take a breath, thinking that this was the reason why Soran offered to date him.
His sentence was cut short. The pale vampire had moved forward, placing his lips on his for just a second, a small and shy peck on the lips just to shut him up in a gentle way. John’s whole body tensed, his eyes turning into perfect circles and still he believed he was in some kind of alternate reality. Things do not go well for him, never, so there must be a trap.
“You…” John mumbled, his palms landing on his lips in a cute motion as he slowly realized they had just kissed. His face changed color, completely, turning bright red and Soran chuckled as he watched him get embarrassed.
“I do not pity you John.” Soran told him. The young werewolf did not really seem to believe him. Still he waited, curious about what he had to say. “I never pitied you because there was never a reason to. You are really strong, even if you don’t believe that. You say that from the very first moment you thought I was beautiful, well I thought you were extraordinary. A human who had found himself in this messed up situation, coping so well, being so supportive and nice of his vampire boss. At some moments I couldn’t really believe it, I actually thought you might be up to something but I was even more surprised to see how kind you were. The truth is I don’t know how things will go, I am still hung up on the past and that might hurt you but I know I am already hurting you like this and I am also hurting myself, because I do not like being away from you. I am asking you to date me because I want to try with you. You said we are mates, I want to see if that is actually true.” Soran explained himself.
John took a few seconds, trying to understand the full situation. Soran wanted to give him a chance, he told himself and even though he didn’t want to feel excited he did. He felt his heart race, beating for life for the first time in a while as he looked at him, that characteristic gentle smile resting on his elegant face. The young werewolf realized he didn’t care, he didn’t care at all if he was being pitied, if Soran didn’t want to tell him that or whatever could be hiding as an extra behind his words. All he cared about was that he was finally getting a chance and he couldn’t stop himself from smiling, widely.
“You’re smiling.” Soran said with happiness reflecting in his eyes. “Should I take that as a yes?” he asked him.
He felt shy suddenly. His cheeks a rosy color he nodded seeing Soran chuckle at his reaction and the vampire moved a bit closer, the tip of his nose almost touching his as his breath landed steadily on his lips. Soran placed his palm on his cheek, making him shiver from his ice cold skin but he didn’t move, he wasn’t insane to ruin this perfect moment. He gulped.
“Let’s see then…where this will lead us.” he whispered, bringing his face even closer and kissing him. This time for a while, his lips crashing with John’s in a very skillful kiss that had the werewolf melting in the vampire’s arms. He felt Soran hold him tightly and his hands found a place in his silk white hair, feeling them slip between his fingers as Soran’s tongue licked his swollen and red lips. “I liked that.” the vampire said, a smirk on his face.
“I…I liked that too.” the werewolf stuttered.
Maybe things wouldn’t be so bad after all. Leaving BloodBound had activated his good fortune.
Maybe…
…
Hello everyone! I think you had been waiting for this for a while. I am going to built up their relationship and see where this leads so I don’t want to hurry things since it doesn’t make sense for Soran to be in love with John all of a sudden.
But I hope you are happy with what you read!
