A Thousand Years | 𝐆𝐮𝐆𝐮

Chapter 14|Dᴀɴᴅᴇʟɪᴏɴs

The ocean waves were soothing as it grace their eardrums. The brat was running to the sand in hyper while Lady Crane chased him around. Her eyes were nervously darting to the large waves that are violently crashing to the seashore.

The large stones that are on the side looks dangerous and hard too- obviously. It's a rock after all.

Harith assured her that nothing bad will happen because he'll make sure to be cautious. Despite his assurance, he ended up playing in the seashore waiting for the waves to wash up beneath his feet when his mother still looks nervous. He doesn't want to make her stress out.

Emperor pulled her to the sand so she will have to sit and calm her ass. A blanket is underneath them as Harith is on a distance playing with the water being washed by the waves.

"Calm the fuck down, will you?"

Emperor is annoyed at the way her eyes nervously darts to the kid and to the waves. She acts as if the kid will immediately drown the moment she took her eyes away from him.

"Hey!" He flicked her forehead when she didn't reply to him.

She slightly tilted her head to his direction as her eyes stayed to Harith. Fuck, she's ignoring him, huh? Fine then.

He leaned to her face as his nose touched hers. Her attention finally zeroed in him. His hot breathe fanned over hers as she looks at him cross-eyed.

"W-What?" She stuttered with her minty breathe.

Her eyes slightly dropped to his upper chest that is naked once again. Emperor is not a fan of shirts then. Her eyes returned to his, as his shone with mirth. He lifted one of his brows as he saw her checking him out.

That's new.

Her face heated up as she slightly leaned away from him.

That's another new thing.

"Do I make you nervous?" He asks her as he leans to her face once again. His eyes darted to her inviting glistening pink lips. He unconsciously licks his lip at the sight.

He returned his gaze to her emerald orbs that are looking at everything except him. She fidgeted with her shirt as she mumbles out. "Yes."

Emperor smirks at her as he fixed a stray strand of her locks to her ears. "Yeah?" He asks near her ears. She shivered at his voice as his smirk widens. That didn't passed his sight at all.

"Y-Yeah." She clutched her shirt harder as the sands at her side suddenly looks so inviting to her eyes.

He chuckled at her reaction as he touched her jaw and lifted her head to his direction again. Her face is beet red as she bit her lips from nervousness. She slightly swiveled her head to the side, she can't look at him straight on! She doesn't know why she's nervous! Their proximity is bothering her. It's an alien feeling because she never felt bothered from lack of personal space with him before.

"Why?" He followed the tilt of her head.

"I-I don't know." She honestly told him. "My chest just hurts and my stomach feels funny. That's all." She whispered shyly.

He looks at her astonished as he grinned at her. "You sure?"

She nodded as she gently clutched one of his hands. He looked at it questioningly until she lifted his hand and positioned it to the middle of her chest- more like to her cleavage.

"My heart is beating fast." She bits her lips as she added: "I don't know why it's racing."

Emperor looks at his hands that are on top of her soft, fluffy and squishy breast. What the fuck is this girl?! Her innocence will surely kill him one day! Is she fucking seducing him?!
