The Vampire king And The Marked Witch

Chapter Twelve

*This one is my favourite chapter,lol*

Selena

As I descended the stairs I could feel his eyes on my back. The moment he said those words I knew I was in trouble and when those lenses disappeared I couldn't stop thinking how sexy he was.

Will he have his lenses the next time we met. I hope he wouldn't, I quickly shook the thought. How could someone be so attractive. The moment I saw him I felt attracted to him something I never felt for anyone before.

When I saw Holly clinging to him I couldn't help but feel jealous as I excused myself for the restroom. But when felt his stare in my back I felt confident that I walked graceful as I could just to torment him, that's exactly what he did to me.

When I arrived to my table, I turned and found him looking at me before he went up the stairs and when he was out of the room I took a deep breath before going to Connor who was waiting me.

“Mia went to the restroom after her wish.” he said and I nodded, slightly happy she didn't hear my wish even though she would hear about it eventually.

“I didn't expect you to do what you did up there.” he said but I could hear he was dissapointed in me.

“What did you want me to do?” I asked irritated.

“I thought you would convince him that you were worth risking for not that.”

“And do what kiss him? That didn't work for Holly and I bet it wouldn't even for me.”

“I just thought that it's not worth it.” he murmured

“It's my wish Connor. Believe it or not I meant everything I said there and besides if this work, there's a chance I would go back to earth and live like a normal girl again.” I said

“It's not that simply Selena. Even if we have The King on our side there are many enemies and I need to make sure you're into this like I am.” he said

“I'm with you on this one till the end Connor.” I said and those words felt foreign coming from my mouth once again.

They always came with a price I wonder what price would this one bring.

The party ended quickly after that and dinner was already served so we went to our rooms. I didn't talk to Mia that night. I went straight to my room and took a bath, when I went back to the room Rosina was pacing but when she saw me she smiled.

“Selena. Don't wear any nightdress. The king has demanded your presence.” she said shocking me

“What should I wear then?” I asked with my eyes widened.

What was I thinking after making such a wish that I would get a good night sleep. But when he's face came into my thoughts I started feeling eager to meet him which was not good for me.

“He picked up this dress for you to wear.” she said pointing to a rose red dress on the bed.

I took it and covered my body with it. It was silk and expensive, this time it didn't reveal only my back and a leg but it was short and a V- neck.

I stared at my self In the big mirror as Rosina combed my hair into a messy bun, she touche my lashes with a mascara before handing me a jacket which I used it to cover myself.

“Just be careful Selena. I know I never told you this but I've always been a selective person never liked anyone besides my family but when I saw you I liked you on first sight and If I did then there's a chance that the King might.” she said and I hoped she was right.

Outside Sybil was waiting with a guard and when she saw me she said I should follow her. In the way as we went up the stairs I hoped she was taking me to his bedroom.

I wanted to see how it looked. Was it painted black ? Did it have any art? Those questions were in the back of my head as I followed Sybil around. The palace was huge.

We only lived downstairs and here upstairs there were many rooms. I wished I could visit here when it was a day not night.

Sybil stopped in front of a door and gestured for me to get in. So after following her all this way she was going to dumb me in front of a door. I opened the door despite everything and if there were no guards I would've ran away.

I pushed the door open and got inside the room. The lights were dimmed but I could still see clearly with the help of candles. The room was four times the room I had downstairs, everything inside It screamed royalty. The walls were painted in black like I imagened but there were tinges of gold and blue but no white I noted.

My eyes caught the king sized bed. And they traveled to the view he had and once again I wished it was a day so I could see what it looked like outside this place.

“Take off your jacket, Selena.” said the same voice that I loved to hear.

As ordered I took off my jacket and placed it on the dressing table. My eyes looked for him and I found him seating on his royal chair with a glass in his hands.

When I found his eyes, red and his gaze tense. He looked me up and down before he stood up from his chajr

“What do you want Selena?” he asked as he came towards me and I could feel my heart racing in my chest.

I turned away from his intense gaze slowly, disappointed that I didn't have any perfect answer.

“I don't know, yet.” I said and he stopped on a table and poured a glass and handed me.

“Take a seat.” he said pointing to a couch as he sat on the bed.

I took a sip on the glass, it should've stopped the sweating of my palms but it didn't.

“Maybe you didn't get my question. I asked if why did you make that wish?” he asked

“It's what I want and your highness with all due respect. I didn't expect you to be the one to grant me my wish practically as long as it's granted but I understand you don't want to so I'm going to leave.” I said and he didn't stop me until I was at the door.

I hated how disappointed I felt at his rejection until I felt a hand in my shoulder turning me to look at him.

“That's the problem Selena. I want to be the one to grant you your wish.” he said his eyes traveling around my face and they stopped on my lips. “Infact I don't want anyone to touch you but me.”

I didn't wait for him as I crashed my lips into his.
