Chapter 393: Awake(+18)
"What did you do?" she asked, looking down at her hands which looked healthy and the rest of her body. Her stomach was completely healed with no scar to be found.
This pissed her off as she realized that all she had to remember her child was her memory.
Did my ability kick in at the last moment? Self-preservation? she wondered, with obvious confusion on her face. Doing her best to make sense of whatever it was that was happening.
Gaze focused on Zyren, who instead of answering scooted closer to her and went ahead to heave her into his arms.
Wrapping her legs around his waist as he went ahead to kiss her fiercely. So hard that even though Aria tried to refuse, Zyren still did not let go.
Falling onto the bed as he slid his hands around her body in a way that made her feel things she would rather not feel.
"Wait!!!" she gasped the moment Zyren pulled his lips from her own, sliding his mouth to her breasts in a way that had her gasping for air whether or not she wanted it.
His touch was maddening in a way that set her heart racing.
When he parted her legs and pushed himself into her, she was wet and willing, damning everything else.
It was almost like her body needed him. Just like the first time they had done the bonding ritual, but this time around it was much worse.
Gripping his shoulders tight enough to leave marks as she felt him thrust into her hard like he wanted to sheathe himself completely inside of her.
He grabbed hold of her thighs and Aria moaned as she felt pleasure like never before, urging him not to stop and even move faster and deeper than he already was.
By the time they both orgasmed and he finished inside of her, Aria couldn’t put together a coherent thought as she continued to hold on to him.
Her legs trembling ever so slightly even as she felt herself still recovering from the high she had been in.
Her mind was still buzzing with pleasure when she heard Zyren speak, saying words that felt so far away until she took a few moments to process them.
"I turned you. You were a second away from dying. To prevent that, I turned you into a vampire!" he told her while his hard member between his legs was embedded inside of her.
Aria thought nothing of his words until she stopped breathing, realizing that she had been breathing but not because she needed to.
In a moment, she understood why her eyesight was so good in the dark and other little things that her mind had blurred out.
Her hands slowly pulled back even as her eyes widened in shock, then rage, fixing her gaze on Zyren’s red eyes which met her own calm, like the last time she had seen them when she had decided to end her own life.
In one smooth motion she bared her claws before she was aware that she was summoning them and clawed right at Zyren’s face.
Pushing him away from her as she writhed out from under him in utter and complete rage.
"HOW!!!" she gasped. "HOW DARE YOU!" she screamed, a weird ringing in her ears as she glared at him, jumping off the bed naked and not caring the least about the lack of decency.
"I’m... I’m a vampire?" Struggling to accept the fact that she was no longer human as she began to pace around the room.
There was a mark on Zyren’s face, one that disappeared before he even turned around.
His red gaze fixed intensely on her face as he spoke, standing there just as naked and even more still aroused.
"...Mostly!" Taking a pause, wanting to fully explain only to decide against it. Watching her pace around, and even then his gaze couldn’t help but slide down her body as the smell of arousal filled the air, something that Aria’s new senses had no problems picking up.
Her head jerking to the side to look at him as she looked at him with an incredulous expression on her face, one that said that he clearly must have gone mad.
Her thoughts spinning out of control as she willed herself to remain calm, only to get more pissed off seeing that being calm was something Zyren did better than her.
For a moment she just stood there and stared at him, really stared at him, even as she met his gaze as he stared back.
Speaking something she didn’t expect him to do.
"I’m not going to allow you to die! I love you!" he told her, and Aria in response simply chuckled and shook her head, not sure if the words that came out of his mouth deserved a response.
Surprised when he still continued to speak as he took a step towards her.
"...I took out the baby to save your life! You were in no condition to make such a decision. If it was the same for me... I would think you would do the same thing," but barely was he done speaking that Aria strongly shook her head, letting out a harsh laugh.
"I would save the baby! I wouldn’t think twice about it!" she told him, a cruel glint in her eyes as she spoke, one that showed that she wanted nothing more than to hurt him.
"I would not save you because you’re nothing but a monster!" she said, smiling, relieved that she could see even a hint of pain in his eyes as she said those words.
Moving to walk past him towards the door as she spoke. "You once gave me my freedom... I’ll be taking it now!" Aria said, not caring the slightest bit about her state of undress. All she wanted to do was get the farthest away from Zyren as she could.
She had no idea why his touch made her even more sensitive to him than she already was, but something told her that she didn’t want to wait and find out.
Dashing to the door as fast as she could, hoping to get out before Zyren could stop her, but she might as well have assumed that she was in a dream.
One where she was faster than Zyren.
