LILAC

~ Chapter 9: Make a wish ~

Lila's POV

It was pitch black outside, while the weather seemed to be perfect for star gazing.

Darius swooped me off my feet, making me squeak. "Let's go!" He grinned, sprinting into the woods.

Peeking over his shoulder, in the distance, I saw Orion teleport. Within seconds, he was next to us, running at Darius' speed. "Cool!" My eyes sparkled at his abilities. He smiled back at me.

"What about Mason?" I asked. Were we going to leave him behind?

A big wolf showed up running with us. Mason held onto its fur for his life. "We are here!" He groggily replied.

I smiled awkwardly. At this rate, I think he was going to faint.

"Hold on tight love!" Darius spoke making me blush at the nickname.

I flung my hands around his neck, holding on for life. Soon, everyone picked up speed that no mortal could ever run at. I was really impressed at them.

This was the power of the supernatural that existed in this world.

Within the next few minutes, we had reached a small cabin next to a flowing river, as the moonlight sparkled on its waves. Except for our footsteps, the entire place was silent. I could feel the breeze weaving through my hair, ruffling it in the process. The alluring scent of woods and salty water tingled my nose, making it scrunch up in delight. It was truly magnificent, yet peaceful at the same time.

"We are here!" Announced Darius putting me on my feet.

I looked up at him and he had barely broken a sweat. "Do vampires sweat?" I asked unconsciously. Darius looked at me with a raised brow. "No, they don't!" He replied amused.

I nodded satisfied with his answer as he patted my head. Looking around, Orion kept complaining about being tired of teleporting. "Do demons get tired of teleporting aggressively?"

Can you blame me for asking? It's my first time seeing or even thinking about a demon trying to get attention.

"He's just bored and wants attention!" Whispered Darius huskily in my ear, sending chills down my spine.

Shaking my head, I looked at a dazed Mason lying on the ground. It felt as if there were small birds circling around his head like a halo. I giggled at the thought as Darius went closer to check up on him.

However, Octavius was nowhere to be seen. I looked around sporadically searching for him. From behind the bushes, he arose putting on a white shirt, showing his six packs, no it was definitely eight packs. His eyes met mine as he smirked cheekily. Blushing, I looked at Mason who kept whining about being dizzy.

"You can look at me if you want to love." Octavius grinned approaching me, leaving a few of his top buttons open on purpose. I gulped looking back at his face, and not at his very nice chest. Excuse me!

Don't you dare look down Lila! You cannot become a pervert. I'm sure I was making a weird face looking at him.

As graceful as he was already, he bent down next to my ear and whispered, "I'm all yours after all, my love!"

"Haha, look at this place. It's so pretty, isn't it?" I slid away from his body heat, spreading my arms in the air. He chuckled at my attempt to distract myself.

"Yes, indeed. We will do whatever you want!" He told me dangerously coming close to my back as I felt his body heat radiate. His hands trailed the outline of my hand as I felt his breath next to my left ear. "After all, you are our queen. We shall do as you desire!" I closed my eyes in response, leaning back on his chest unconsciously.
