Unexpected

12 : What Did You Think I Meant?

- Saba's POV -

Carrying me into the house, he went straight to the kitchen and set me down on the island. Grabbing a chunk of ice from the freezer, he put it in his mouth and bit down making a loud pops and cracks as he chewed. With a few small pieces in his mouth, he brought a piece to the edge of his lips and let it sit before sucking the ice back and licking his lips. He stood in between my legs and cupped my face, placing his cold lips on my still burning face. The coolness numbed the sting. He licked his lips again and planted a few more kisses on my cheek. He pulled back and placed his hands on my hips.

"I'm a superhero." He wiggled his eyebrows and smirked. "You wanna know how?" I smiled and nodded. "Not only did I save and now heal you but I got to kiss you as well." I giggled. "Those are the requirements right? Save a damsel, heal and protect her then share a kiss with her. That seems to be a recurring theme in those movies we watch."

"You really are crazy." I wrapped my arms around his waist and stared at him.

"You make me crazy." He rubbed his nose against mine.

"I think you were this way long before you met me." I laughed and saw him grin.

"That may be, but you amplify my crazy. To answer your previous question, yes I just killed two people. One could have been avoided I'll admit. The other however was non-negotiable. When I saw that girl slap you I blacked out. The Machine was in the way of getting to my target." He put his cold lips back on my cheek, soothing it once again.

"I guess it would be dumb to ask if you feel bad about it." I raised my eyebrow at him in a curious look.

"Yes it would, and no I don't." He shook his head. "In fact I'm glad she did it." I looked at him confused. He's glad I got slapped in the face? "She volunteered to be the prime example of what will happen when someone tries to harm you." He cupped my face and kissed me. "Anyone who tries to hurt or take you from me, dies immediately. No second chances, no mercy. Just instant death."

"Should I be worried or scared? I feel like I should be both."

"Neither. I will never hurt you and the only people who should worry, is everyone but you." He smiled.

"King, you can't just..." He stopped me, putting his hand over my mouth. He sighed.

"I told you that I am a jealous man. I told you that you are mine to love, kiss and fuck. No one is allowed to touch you the way I do. No one is allowed to make you feel what I make you feel." He dropped his hand from my mouth to my throat. "I will murder the entire fucking world until it's just us two left if that's what it takes to prove my point." His still cold lips meet mine once again. He would murder an entire planet of people just for me? The logical side of my brain tells me that's not possible and more than likely he would probably get tired of me. The other half is telling me to fuck this man until his heart gives out. He is right about one thing. No one has ever made me feel what he makes me feel. Maybe that's because he actually means it. We hear someone clear their throat. He doesn't even bother letting me go. He just slowly turned his head towards the noise and scowls.

"So this may not be a good time but, Demetri is here and he is pissed." Noah said, stepping out the the kitchen immediately after. King picked me up and set me on my feet, grabbing my hand and walking out of the kitchen. We make it to the front door and I see a man standing at the threshold looking like a mad grizzly bear. He's only a little taller than me, with jet black, fluffed and slicked back hair and fuzzy chest, and arms.
