[ Zhou Ancestral Mansion… ]
Marceline woke up feeling sore all over her body, most especially on her nether region. She bit her lower lip and tried to sit up.
The moment she opened her eyes, she peered at her surroundings, searching for Kira but he was nowhere to be found. She was alone in the room and it was already noontime.
She noticed that she was no longer in her room, but in Kira's room. Her bed collapsed last night because of their intense physical activity so Kira transferred her to his room to sleep comfortably in her bed.
Marceline's stamina was not lacking however Kira became so intense last night that they continued making love until dawn. He exhausted her too much so she slept for a long time.
The discomfort she felt last night was long gone. Her head didn't hurt anymore. Her expression turned sour and ugly as she recalled Cedric's attempt of having sex with her.
"Damn him! I think he drugged me last night, that's why I became so lustful and horny," Marceline mumbled through her gritted teeth.
She got off the bed, wrapping the white blanket around her body. She was still naked and she could see the kiss marks left by Kira on her flesh.
'Damn. Kira was so rough but… very passionate. I thought he was going to break my pelvis after his continuous pounding.' Marceline's cheeks reddened at the memories of last night's passion.
She had forgotten about Cedric as her attention was diverted to Kira and their intimate moments last night. Her mood suddenly changed and brightened up.
She felt so blissful. She didn't regret giving her 'first time' to Kira. As far as she could remember… she even uttered those three magic words before falling asleep.
She immediately covered her burning cheeks using both hands. "Damn, I could feel myself blushing. I feel so embarrassed… I said 'I love you' to him. I wonder if he was able to hear it or not."
Marceline stopped in front of a full-body-sized mirror. She watched her reflection while assessing her feelings. She was trying to find it in her heart if what she felt for Kira was true.
There was a glow in her eyes and a faint smile on her lips. Her heart was pounding in a beautiful rhythm. At that certain moment, she confirmed it. She already loved Kira, her vampire bodyguard.
She wasn't surprised at all even though they just met not for long. She felt like she was bound to fall in love with him. He was the only guy who made her feel different.
She had to admit that Kira had a great effect on her. It wasn't only because Kira was a good-looking guy. She felt like something was pulling her into him. She was being drawn to him for an unknown reason. And finally, she was able to name it– LOVE. It's definitely love!
She was worried sick when he got hurt. She felt jealous if women tried to approach Kira. She felt like she wanted to own him, not allowing any woman to get close to him.
When Kira was sad, she had this strong urge to cheer him up and make him happy. When she was in danger, she was the first man she thought about, hoping he would find her and save her.
She's the kind of person who doesn't like to rely on someone. But when Kira came into her life, she began trusting him wholeheartedly and relying on him solely.
The attraction she had for Kira was so strong that she always wanted him to stay by her side all the time.
"I unknowingly fell in love with him. I can no longer ignore my feelings… I can no longer deny it. I love Kira… I truly love him as a man." Marceline admitted to herself, pressing her hand on her chest. She could hear and feel the loud and fast beating of her heart.
After clearing her mind and figuring out her feelings, Marceline decided to take a quick shower inside Kira's bathroom. She still felt sticky and sweaty. The remnants of their heated passion were still fresh in her mind and visible on her body.
She couldn't walk properly. She sighed helplessly while moving slowly towards the bathroom door.
"I wonder where Kira is right now," she murmured, feeling a little bit disappointed for not seeing Kira after waking up in his bed.
She dipped her body in the bathtub, trying to relax her body. The warm water helped her soothe the soreness she felt.
She closed her eyes, playing the sweet and wonderful memories of last night in her mind. She began caressing her body, gently touching the spots where Kira left his marks.
'Uhmm...I miss his touches and kisses already…'
Marceline couldn't get enough of Kira. She wanted more of him. Following the traces of last night's memories, Marceline touched herself.
After half an hour, Marceline came out of Kira's bathroom, wearing only Kira's oversized T-shirt. Upon opening the door, she was surprised to see Kira standing in front with eyes filled with lust.
He had been standing there for a long time, waiting for Marceline to finish bathing. He heard everything she did inside his bathroom. He was tempted to join her and do the work for her to satisfy her but part of him stopped Kira from doing so.
It seemed like he was still shaken by the fact Marceline was a werewolf. He suddenly became reluctant to approach her and get intimate with her.
But it was so hard to control his desire especially after seeing her. She looked so hot and sexy with only a shirt on. Her pair of flawless legs and her protruding crowns of her twin peaks were visible.
He was about to turn around to avoid looking at her when Marceline grabbed his elbow and spoke to him.
"Last night… you took my virginity. I want you to take responsibility so… MARRY ME!"
Kira: "...."
