What's mine is yours, But what's mine is mine

Chapter 24: Ancestry: Star-crossed

His senses were alerted. He sat there at his favorite spot. That giant boulder at the river bank. He waited for it to come. And it did.

Small, delicate, soft pair of hands covered his eyes from behind. The owner giggled, giving her identity away.

But even if she didn't, he would still catch her. Even from afar, even as she approaches, he'll know it was her.

Her scent. it would tell her away. And those hands, he knows it like his own.

He'll know even with his eyes closed. He would because he was a demon.

"You know you can't fool me." He gently lifted her hands away from his eyes, showing his golden pair of orbs.

"I know. It just makes me happy, knowing you recognize me."

She shifted and came to face him. Smiling only at him, that sweet smile of hers. Her eyes, a rare shade of brown glistened in the sunlight. They had that playful glint to them. She was mischievous alright.

She'd always come to him. Always be there. In there little haven. Despite her attendants warning.

Remembered the attendant told him once that he'd be sorry for he'll have his butt kicked if he ever make her cry. If he ever hurt the Şahzadə.

He doesn't know why himself. The first time he smelled her scent he was intoxicated. She was like a powerful drug. She was crying then, she was wounded and blood trickled down her knee. He smelled salt and that metallic tinge in the air. When he approached her, she didn't cower like any human should. She even asked him to help her up.

Yes, the audacity. A human as herself ordering a demon like himself. But he helped her anyway.

She jumped down the rock and motioned for him to follow. And he did just that. His hair swayed with the wind as he did. It fell elegantly down his shoulders as he hit the ground. He looked beautiful, she thought.

He's a demon. She's human.

She would always be held captive with his presence. Like a spell. She raised her hands to touch his long, silvery silky hair. She then longingly held his face with her other hand. She was looking at him and only him. Like all else around her surroundings didn't matter.

"I could eat you, you know."

"You couldn't even if you want to."

He's a demon. He lusted after her. He couldn't get his hands off her.

"Your kind proves to be tasty."

"You don't eat off of humans."

"I do." He grabbed her hand and pulled her in. Locking her in his strong embrace. She gladly complied. She look up to him, anticipating his next action. He leaned down and brushed his lips on her. Like always, they were soft and luscious. Calling to him. He couldn't bear it anymore.

He crushed her lips in a searing kiss. He longed for her as much as she him. This is there precious moment. No one else's. Their world. Their little getaway.

Even just for today. He'll risk it, even just for today.

He who had been blessed with the accursed fetters of eternity, suffer a fate more tragic than death. He had been envied by those who seek infinity, but what he had is not what others consider a blessing.

For he's a demon. And she's a human.

They could never be.

Then that's that. Please leave reviews. ^^
