The door of their room flung open and he barged in. She nearly shuddered because she didn't think he would come here first. How did he know she was even here.
"What's this?" he demanded, pointing at his face.
"Your pretty face" she answered innocently. He banged the door close and walked to her in heavy footsteps.
"What's the meaning of this, Aria?" he asked again.
She blinked her eyes as though confused "What?" Ryan pulled her to the mirror.
"What have you done to my face?!"
"I didn't do anything" she lied "But you look beautiful."
"Beautiful?"
"Yes..."
His jaws clenched hard, his eyes blazed. Ryan walked to the door and locked it, including the bathroom, closet and balcony door.
"W-what are you doing?" she asked
"Making sure there's no where for you to run to, Lee Ari"
"But...I didn't do anything to your face" she lied, again.
"So you're saying a ghost came here and applied makeup on my face?" he demanded.
"I--I don't know. I don't know who did it" she said, forcing herself not to laugh hard.
"Really?" he picked up the pillow from the bed, and she when she answered, he threw it at her without missing the shot.
"Ah...!!" she cried, moving away. "What did I do wrong now? I said it wasn't me" he threw another pillow at her. She tried dodging it but couldn't.
"You're still lying?" his voice was dark.
"No.... Stop" Ryan moved to where the pillows had fallen while she tried to get away. "I'm telling you, I didn't do anything. I've been reading the whole time." His eyes moved to her, Aria shuddered at the look she met.
"You didn't do it? Then who did?" he asked.
"I don't know"
"You must know....by force" he began to chase her. Aria ran for her dear life around the couch even though she could barely get away from him.
"Mummy...." she cried while she ran. And the next moment, he gripped her hand.
"Wipe it off!" he said sternly and she pursed her lips. She took the wipes and sat with him, wiping the makeup a bit forcefully.
"Be gentle!" he growled underneath and she sniffed.
Both Leonel and Zariel who had been standing by the door , laughed at what they couldn't see. They tiptoed away before Ryan would sense their presence or their doomed.....just like Ari.
While she wiped his face, all he did was gaze at her darkly. His gaze sent chills down her spine, and sweat broke on her forehead. She lifted her eyes and looked into his, it caused goosebumps on her skin. Lowering them to his lips, she gently wiped the lipstick off.
Ryan grasped her wrist and she flinched. "Tell me...who did this mischief?" he asked.
"I said I don't know!" she yelled and he leaned forward to her face.
"You don't know?"
"Yes..."
"Really?" she didn't speak, only leaning away from his face and biting her lips. "Don't lie to me... Aria" his voice grew more harsh. She didn't know why her heart shuddered.
"I did it...." she said, almost in a whisper.
"So why did you lie in the first place?" he asked.
"It was fun...."
"Fun, huh.... Lying to me was fun?" Aria lifted her eyes into his. Her chest heaved slowly. His hand wrapped around her waist and he pulled her forcefully. She gasped.
"Do you remember the punishment for lying, sweetheart?" Her cheeks burned as his breath reached her face. She blinked her eyes and bit her lips. He held the back of her head and pulled her face closer with a little force. She gasped again. "Do you remember...?" he asked again.
"I... I don't" she lied again. And he jaws clenched, she noticed.
"Should I remind you?"
"I'm sorry, Ryan. I..." he didn't let her complete her speech, capturing her red lips into his. His kiss was rough, hard. Ravaging her lips like a starved savage beast. She could barely breathe. Her finger gripped his shoulders, while he inclined her head, pushing his tongue in. He ravaged her mouth. Shivers went down her spine as he yanked her closer. She gasped against his lips.
Ryan felt his blood boil, his gums itch. But he didn't stop, he didn't want to. He kissed her harder, deeper. Like he would never get a chance to do it again. His fangs grew, he needed to pull back. But not today. He felt angered. Little lies angered him and this was the only way he wanted to punish her. His fangs pricked her lips...
"Ah..!" she winced. He didn't stop, his fangs only pricked her lips. She tried pulling back but he yanked her closer again. Gripping her tightly by her waist. She felt the strong taste of blood in her mouth. Her blood also filled his mouth. It tastes sweet. But he controlled himself. A growl escaped his mouth, he wanted more. But he could only grip her harder.
She had never felt such harshness from him. He was so rough with her and she really wanted the kiss to end. She was bleeding, she could taste it. She felt like she was in hell for painting his face. Or was it because she lied? But it's normal. She struggled, but he won't let her. She could only give in and feel in the little pain on her lips, and his suffocating kiss.
After torturing her to his content, he pulled back. Her chest heaved heavily, she couldn't breathe. She opened her eyes and looked at him. His eyes burned gold. His tip of his fangs glistened with her blood. She shuddered, gulped down hardly.
"I don't like it when you lie Aria" he spoke. Dark, harsh, even when he tried to be calm.
"B-but, it was a harmless lie"
"I know, but I hate it"
She gulped, her lips were hurting so bad, and her heart shuddered at his voice. "I...I'm sorry" she said with lowered eyes, and then lifted it to look in his burning ones. She stared deeply. And then a smile formed on his face. She did know why he was smiling but it caused her cheeks to redden. He leaned forward and licked her bloody lips. His tongue felt hot on that plump skin. Her eyes fluttered repeatedly, her heart raced a million miles.
"Do you like my eyes?" he asked
"Y-yes. It's...like a gem" she answered while he pulled her closer, causing her to straddle him.
"Yours are like stars" he said, burying his face in her neck. He inhaled her scent and kissed her there. Placing kisses downwards and her body tingled.
"I love you" he wanted to say. But once again, the words got stuck in his throat. It felt afraid to leave his mouth so he hugged ber tightly.
They stayed that way, just feeling each other
