Redemption: The dark night

54 54. Come closer

"You should come over here you are so far away." Lucius screamed startling Monica who was lost in thought. His eyes hadn't left Monica all this while. All the while she ate he had watched her but the fact that she was so far away from him was causing his heart to ache. He wanted her close to him even if he wasn't going to be able to touch her, only being around her would be enough for him. Her presence was more than enough.

"I'm eating." She muttered to herself and although Lucius heard her he still wanted to be close to her. He didn't want to rush her yet his body was responding to her so bad without his minds consent. It was that his body craved to be close to her and he couldn't control this desire.

Monica's legs shook so did her hands. Before her was a banquet and for one who loved to eat as much as she did it was supposed to be a dream come through for her but Instead she found that she was in a dilemma. Nothing was making sense. She didn't need food but answers.

The meal before her ranged from pancake, seasoned chicken, beef, prawn and all types of food laid there waiting for her to devour. They didn't know what to make for her so they must have made anything they thought humans ate and enjoyed.

She did like the varieties of food before her though. If it wasn't for the circumstances she was currently in she would have eaten to her hearts content and then stored the rest of the food. She believed strongly that food was life and here she was thinking otherwise. Because right now she was so confused she was beginning to doubt if she was really alive. Maybe God is just playing a prank on me and I'm already dead. She thought bitterly. She drew in deep breaths and exhaled.

Not only was her life in danger but she couldn't breath properly. Lucius was taking her breath away and she was practically shaking from desire. She wanted him in her arms or her in his whichever way. Even though everything was so confusing to her what the man across the table made her feel became the icing to the cake of her confusion.

She didn't want to be so far from him but after seeing what he did to Clara she thought it best to stay away.

He did that for you idiot. she was hurting you he practically almost killed his kind for you.

He almost killed me too.

But he brought you here remember. He brought you to his bedchamber which yoi could see was probably a first for him. Why not let go and feel.

I?can't what if He hurts me. And how can you tell me to let go and feel. I don't even have the slightest clue of what's going on here.

Her mind and her heart were fighting again.
