Oblivion

Chapter 7

    Serenity looked at the man who was standing over her, her heart racing as she licked her lips trying to process what he said. You're being hunted.  The words ran through her head over and over again before she finally spoke up. "I'm not an animal." Was all she said. Xavier sighed looking down at Serenity his mind going back to when they first met.

 "Sire Lady Serenity is on her way to the ballroom." Xavier nodded not turning away from the window he stood at. That was until he saw a beautiful woman standing behind him, her reflection showed in the window her long dark tresses hung down her back in small curls her hair pinned with small jewels. "Hi mi lord." She said as she slowly approached him her voice soft as she appeared to be. Her dark blue dress sparkled with small crystals sewn into the bodice making her shine more than she already did. "May I ask who you are?" Xavier asked knowing full well who she was. "I'm Serenity." She said a small smile playing on her lush lips. 

   Xavier swallowed hard staring at Serenity her features just as they were from their first meeting, one she doesn't remember. "You may not be an animal, but you are valuable to a lot of people. Who would do anything to get their hands on you." Xavier said roughly his hands rolled into fists at his side. "Why?" Serenity asked.                                                                                                                        "Serenity you're a Wanted One. You're one of the most powerful people in the world." Avalon said. 

          Serenity sat alone in the room she woke up in her gaze focused on the fireplace as she thought about what she was told at dinner. A small knock sounded at the door drawing her from the fire place and to the door. "May I come in?" Carson asked his brown hair messy giving him that sex look. Making him look more attractive than he already was. Hell they were all abnormally attractive. "Sure." Serenity said pulling her knees to her chest as he handed her a steaming cup. "It's tea," Carson explained as he sat down next to her. Serenity sipped at it slowly letting the warmth move throughout her cold body. "Thank you." Carson stared at Serenity as she sipped at her tea his mind wanting to relive the past but he stopped his mind, "How are you?" Serenity shrugged placing her tea on the nightstand beside her. "Other than the fact that I learned that I'm some powerful immortal with nine lives?" Carson nodded suppressing a laugh. "I feel as if I were ran over by a train and I can't wrap my head around any of this. I know that man." Serenity said running a hand over her face. Carson looked at her noticing that she had dark bags under her eyes and she was visibly exhausted. "You should get some rest. We will talk more tomorrow." Carson said leaving the room shutting the door softly. Xavier stood in the hallway waiting for him. "I think she's starting to remember. But she's not going to be ready for whatever Draco has planned. Hundred of years have gone by and she's still in denial." Carson explained before turning to Xavier. "You know her, or you did. You need to get it through to her."

    " What would the king say if he saw you here?' Serenity asked starring up at the stars a smile on her face. "Mi lady what I do on my spare time is no ones concern but my own." Serenity turned to Xavier placing a soft hand on his stubbled face her dark hair providing a curtain for them as she ran her thumb over his soft lips. "My father would behead you without a single thought if he thought you deflowered me." Serenity joked.  Xavier flipped her onto her back his strong hands holding her arms above her head a wicked smile on his face. "Mi lady then it is a chance I'm willing to take." Serenity slowly pried her hands from his grasp before cupping his cheeks and kissing his lips. "You are worth it always." Serenity whispered to him before shouts rang out making Xavier stiffen. "Xavier what is that?" Serenity asked panic radiating from her as he pulled her to her feet. "Listen to me, run don't look back do you understand me?" Serenity turned away from the villagers  who made their way towards them with torches and anger. "NO! I won't leave you!" Serenity said pulling at Xavier trying to make him go with her. Xavier stopped and pulled her towards him and kissed her hard before running in the direction of the mob. 

  Serenity woke up in a cold sweat confused by the dream she just woke up from. She didn't dwell on it as she got up from her bed and made her way down the dark hall to the only light that as on. She walked in and saw the man from dinner she didn't know who though because he was turned away form her and her gaze was on his bare back that had a giant scar on it and a dagger was running through it. His muscles were taunt and dampened with sweat making the tattoo more vivid. "Did you look your fill?" he asked turning to face her making her nearly gasp. His chest was muscular with abs so defined it looked like a candy bar. But her gaze stopped on the cut bleeding on his side. "You're hurt," she stated walking towards him and grabbing the towel he held. "Sit down. Please." Xavier sighed before complying as she searched for a first aid kit and finally finding one under the sink. "So how'd you hurt yourself?" she asked as she nodded for him to stand up and she sat on the counter letting him step between her legs as she cleaned it and bandaged it up before looking up at him. "I pulled some stitches while running." Serenity nodded slowly standing up turning to walk out the room before saying, "I remember you Xavier." Then she walked away leaving Xavier staring after her in surprise.
