Chapter Twelve
He stood there half naked with only his dark wash jeans on, his toned skin glistened in the light of the room. There were scars all up and down his chest, some looked very old and some new.
"How did you get those scars?" I asked slowly, tracing gently over the red marks, forming a trail down his beautiful tan skinned body, even when he had those scars they didn't make him look any less.
His hand dived through his dark chestnut locks, making some small threadlike strands fall above his striking green eyes that held pain and sorrow. He then spoke three words that made my throat swell. "I did it."
Why ever would he do something so horrible to himself. "What ever for?" I asked trying to meet his eyes but he kept his stare on the floor as if there was something more exciting there.
"I have done so many horrible things." He muttered, he backed away from my touch but then looked straight into my eyes.
Never in my 500+ years have I ever wanted to break down and cry for someone else. The tears I normally let out were mostly for me which in all honesty kind of sounds selfish. I felt water pooling in my eyes but I started blinking heavily. I walked towards him putting my hand on the side of his face and stroking his cheek with my fingers, he enjoyed the warm, friendly gesture, I could tell by that when he leaned his face into my hand a little more.
"As have I. As have we all." I said gently. Which made him frown and open his mouth to speak only for me to speak again. "Monsters we may be. But it doesn't mean we're all bad."
A sad smile played along his soft looking lips. "However can you say such things when you don't know me just yet."
"Your eyes." I said as I walked away and jumped onto the soft warm comforters of the bed that came with my newly chosen bedroom. The bedroom was huge. The walls covered in a soft brown matching the expensive looking furniture. The bedroom also had a balcony which let in the light of the moon.
"My eyes?" He questioned in curiosity, also taking a space beside me.
I stared hard into his eyes, looking deep within the find his fears and secrets. "They don't hold the look of a killer. Whatever you have done or do, you regret it all, you carry the guilt with you everyday until-"
"Until," He trailed.
"Until one day you find something that truly makes you happy, something you have longed for in your entire existence, something that makes you feel worthy, important. To feel loved." I finished looked away from his eyes and twiddling with my fingers. Every word, every syllable I had spoke is everything I long for, I don't think I'll ever find someone to be worthy of.
I could feel his gaze burrowing its way into the confided spaces of my brain. "I speak these words because I desire these things the most."
It was silent now. I guess he didn't know exactly what to say to that. Suddenly he stood up walking to the balcony and looking straight up at the moon. "It's a natural impulse for werewolves and vampires to be repulsed by each other. The battle between my brother and I make it impossible for our kind to mesh but with the exception of Adrian of course. He was a newly turned vampire when one of my own found him alone and utterly confused. As much as I hate my brother and his kind, I took Adrian as one of my own even though I still get this itch to beat the living shit out of him."
He saw me wince at his last sentence and turned around giving me a genuine smile. "However, I do not feel that way about you, vampire." He teased. "You are something of a true beauty something I have never in all my existence been acquainted with, something of an Aphrodite."
I blushed. Wait what? Blush, I would never...
"I shall leave you to tend to yourself for now but if you have any matters please call for me."
I nodded to him, standing up and walking with him towards the door. Before leaving he turned to face me, his face mere inches away from mine, he truly was a being of perfection. The words he spoke truly made me even more charmed by him. "You're right you know. Monster we may be. But it doesn't mean we're all bad. You be sure to be sure to remember that you are worthy of those desires, angel."
""However can you say such things when you don't know me just yet." I recited, it was as if I was stuck in a trance.
"Your eyes."
I snorted at that which he then raised his eyebrow at. He held my small hands kissing both my knuckles, making my face grow hot at the small endearment. He does know how to charm da ladies.
"Goodnight, love."
"Goodnight Sebastian."
