Kingdom of the fallen

Fifteen

"Well, I'd love to call you mine, but at the end of the day that is your decision."

My eyes must have sparked, as a soft laugh was let out from the males' lips. I nodded my head in agreement.

"That would be lovely,"

I spoke. His hand reached over to mine, as he spun me around. After many laughs and spins, he pulled me in close, kissing my hand.

"Then that shall we be,"

He spoke in a soft manner. I gave a warm smile, as I stared into his eyes, getting the same in return. An orange light peeked through the window, as the sun set. Golden hour. The light reflected onto his smooth skin. A moment passed before he gasped softly.

"Follow me,"

Without questioning, he picked me up, holding me bridal style. Out the bedroom door, passing the hallway with the beautiful paintings, through the dining room, which was now cleaned up, following a red carpet, and out the back door of the castle. We followed a small path and into a flower garden. My eyes lit up, but before I could say anything he set me down, then spun me around.

"Care to dance, ma 'lady?"

"I'd love to,"

After exchanging smiles, he placed his hand on my lower back, as we started to dance. The sun's lighting was perfect, as we glided through the field. Flowers of all kinds, from white roses, warm toned sunflowers, and pastel-colored hydrangeas, surrounded us.

While we danced, I couldn't help but have a wide smile on my face. I looked at all of the flowers, the brick building with vines grown over, tall patches of grass that hadn't been cut, trees swaying with leaves falling, and lastly him. It was all so beautiful. He let out a small giggle before speaking.

. "You know dear, you hold my attention without even trying. Even a beautiful reflection. Along with your firework eyes." .

My face was light pink, as I smiled warmly towards the male. His hand drifted towards my face, as he tucked my hair behind my ear. It was at this moment I realized how safe I was. No flinch, no worry, no nothing. Trust had been there.

I stared into his soft green eyes that shimmered in the light. A soft smile was expressed on my face. The male held my face gently, as he leaned in. His soft lips met mine. the moment only lasting a couple minutes, but it felt like hours.

After the touch broke, I dropped to the ground, Lucien doing the same. I held his hand, while looking at the sky.

The stars shined like glitter on the ground, each having different lighting and size. The moon was bright but shined a light blue down on us. A slight breeze flow through the air, giving a nice, cold shiver to everything. Trees shook while leaves fell, nature is beautiful.

A moment passed as the breeze started to pick up. It was cold but I didn't want to ruin the moment. An arm wrapped around me, pulling me close. I looked over to see Lucien flashing a sweet smile at me. I gave one in return as I rested my head on his chest. The moment was breath taking.

Soft yawns escaped my mouth, while my eyes started to feel heavy. I held them open as long as I could, but from the owls talking, to the wind blowing, and the sound of the leaves shaking, it was all to comforting to stay awake. That is when, my eyes finally fell, and accepted their fate.
