| Alice's POV |
"Alice?"
I turned around and saw Alek look at me with concern, yet I can still see the hurt I had etched in his face. I shook my head and shuddered at the unbearable memory of my sister's death.
It's all your fault Alice! Your fault! Unless I come to you I never want to see you again!
I cringed at the words Bramble had repeated over and over again. Suddenly, a wave of sadness rolled into me as I remembered how all of this pain my sisters and brothers endure is because of me.
I walked sullenly, a lump of guilt stuck in my throat. I have to apologize to Alek. It wasn't his fault yet I had lashed him as if it was.
"The way you looked at her," I mumbled, but I knew Alek could still hear me.
"Huh?" He said as if I had disrupted him from his train of thoughts.
"You looked like...like..." I swallowed and I turned around to look at him. "You looked at her like you were ready to marry her right there and then. When you look at me, I don't see that," I said quickly. That nerves were getting to me.
I knew I was being unfair to him. "You know what? Never mind. It's just...jealousy talking. I'm sorry I hurt you, I swear I didn't mean to. I know you're trying your best and I have no right to judge you when you're barely beginning to understand all of this." At this point I didn't even know what I was saying.
I looked at Alek through my eyelashes for I had looked down, and I saw him smile. I froze when he abruptly grabbed my wrist and pulled them toward him. I fell on his chest and soon I felt his hand wrapped around me and I knew I was forgiven.
I let out a happy sigh as I felt my muscles relax at his touch. His warm lips touched my hair and I felt him smile.
"What?" I said closing my eyes and relishing the feeling.
"I love you," he whispered, and I felt my heartbeat quickened.
My arms wrapped around his waist and I hugged him tightly, never wanting to let him go.
I was scared. Being here in the Underworld is showing my father's side. I don't want it to happen again. I don't want to lose control. I don't want to be monster.
I don't want Alek to hate me.
I let a few tears escape my eyes and I squeezed my eyes tight. Alek loosened his grip, probably feeling the tears soak his shirt. He pulls away and grabs my shoulder.
"Hey, what's wrong?" He frowns and I shake my head.
"Nothing. It just overwhelms me how much I need you," I sniffed.
He smiles and kisses me softly. I wrapped my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. I don't want to let him go. He's mine.
He grabbed my waist and soon we were into a full out make out session. I breathe in his scent, something that I would never forget. Desires ignites inside me and suddenly I let out a moan. Alek seemed to take it as chance to proceed and he lowers down his hands until he's cupping my backside.
I inhale sharply and soon it wasn't only his alluring scent that reminded me of pinewoods and earth that I smelled but it was now the salty metallic scent that everyone has.
Blood.
My grip tighten around his neck and I squeezed my eyes shut. "No!" I moaned at the pain in my throat.
"What's wrong?" Alek sounded alarms and he pulled me away. Immediately, I took a whiff of fresh air and my thirst quenched a bit. I gripped my throat as I felt it throb rather painfully.
"Just don't get close to me." I warned. I didn't want no accidents, especially not with him. I realized for a moment that the last time I fed was over a month ago, a day before the wedding. And the person I fed from was the very same I'm trying to struggle not to feed right now.
Vampires always fed daily since that was the only thing they need to survive. But I was a variety of genes, so I didn't need to feed as much, only twice a month at least.
I can't believe I completely forgot to feed, especially when I was going to spend with a human for God knows how long.
"Your eyes." I heard Alek whispered. I glanced and I saw him staring at me, with horror and amazement.
"What about them?" I whispered back. He kept looking at me and suddenly, I felt self-conscious about it so I closed my eyes.
"The eye that was silver is now violet." I sighed, already knowing that when my emotions get out of control my silver eye turns violet.
"Yeah, I know." I stood up straight and I saw Alek step forward to walk towards me.
"No!" I panic. I didn't know if I was able to control myself around him. I need to be careful.
"Jesus! Just tell me what's wrong," he snapped at me. I gave him a glare and he returned it back. I noticed with amusement, that I don't scare Alek like I used. He doesn't find me intimidating, in fact, it was vice versa. His now blue eyes were turning dark as anger consume him. I noticed his hands were balled into fist and his jaw clenched in annoyance. I couldn't help but smiled at how . . . hot Alek looked when he's angry.
"What?" Alek muttered in annoyance. My smiled widen and I chuckled.
"I will kiss you senseless now, but I'm afraid I can't." I grinned at him. My eyes widen in surprised at how blunt I was at the moment.
Alek eyes widened as well and I saw his cheeks and the top of his ear tint red. Then he pouted and crossed his arms giving me a stern look. "Why not?"
I shook my head, my grin widening. "Let's go."
