Chapter 288: Are You Seducing Me?

DACE

~

Emma said nothing... She was completely silent before me and didn’t meet my eyes. Everything she told me still came as an awe to me. Grayson was a warlock? And they both share the same dream? It was hard to ponder on it. He was half supernatural just like Emma, was that why she was always curious about him? Why she always felt unease by him? But that first time was solely because he was a Venator.

That should be the center of my thoughts but it wasn’t, what got my thoughts jamming was the fact that she was gonna use magic again and I didn’t like that at all. It made my insides claw and my beast on edge.

"I had a thought... Grayson is a warlock so I won’t do the spell alone, it’s just like a shared spell, two bodies as one" she finally said breaking the hot silence between us.

We kept our eyes on each other in a prolonged state but she was quick to look away feeling unease by my ardent stare. Even though what she said was to my understanding, it still did not sit well with me nor calm me down. One thing I learned while growing up in this town full of witches and warlocks was that every spell comes with a price, that was why they mostly trained their physical bodies, and most of their warlocks were built and the witches were physically strong.

But Emma wasn’t any of that, she’s my petite baby girl who knew nothing about the supernatural world until months ago, it must have been a hell of a ride for her because in just six months her life made a drastic change beyond what she could control, she was pull in without her choice or maybe it was her choice to be pulled in, I still haven’t figured that out yet but I knew deep down that is was meant to happen.

Mysteries involve this girl that still awes me. Her strong sense of magic... I can feel from her body even though she was just a half-witch. Her intoxicating scent, even though she was my Female still didn’t change the fact that it affected me strongly, even Emilia, Lucas and my parents can see to that fact and the Vampire that attacked her.

In a span of the little time she has been in Juneau, she has been haunted, attacked, and almost died because of her excessive use of magic, if I was there with her she wouldn’t have had to go through it, and I would have protected her with my life, this is why I still blame myself and all of it partly my fault. If I was there she wouldn’t have had to go through such a traumatic experience.

"You’re not saying anything," she said partly in a whisper and I brought my eyes to her. I knew she couldn’t read my emotions right now because I don’t want to show it, this was enough to show that I didn’t like what she was about to do.

"Dace" She began a bit hesitant to talk to me right now and I only just remained quiet but my insides were tormenting me. Why? Because I know Emma, she won’t back down from this easily, she is always like this when she wants to help the people she cares about. She was mentally strong in that aspect, something she doesn’t know herself.

"You know why I have to do this...I’m connected to this somehow and I know it" she tried to convince me and more herself. I could see it clearly in her eyes, she really intended to do this. Which makes it hurt more, It aggravated me too but I just kept it in me.

"If there’s a way to help Grayson I have to try, I owe him that much"

"Is this about paying back a help?" I question because I knew this was the opposite, it was definitely something... I could see it in her eyes, the emotions that swirl in them as she speaks to me.

"I care about him " she mumbled the words to me, she was speaking awfully quietly right now maybe because I wasn’t giving off my usual comforting aura but a much more intimidating one.

Yes I will admit that I’m jealous right now by what she said but I knew those feelings she had for Grayson isn’t anything romantic, she naturally cares for him even more than Owen, and that was something I have come to realize. Which only makes whatever I say right now would not be able to convince her otherwise.

I only have one option. "Have you forgotten what a simple spell does to your body?" I was hoping to convince her of this but Emma still has that fire in her eyes. One I wasn’t so sure I could quench. Emma was shy and mostly not self-spoken but she was gradually changing which I will accept all through and through. That change came with a certain flame within her that gave off something cold, and I wanna see more of it.

"Everyone has been against me since I came back home, please don’t be among them" she mumbled and the air grew tighter. She was unable to handle it as she rose to her feet and attempted to walk away. But how could I let her?

I grabbed her wrist and pulled her to her lap and she gasped and gripped my shoulder.

’Do you know how much I’m controlling myself right now?" I began and I noticed regret in her eyes. "Don’t walk away and make it worse" I gripped her waist hard. Having her in my hold made me calm down and I was easily gonna say yes to everything that comes off her lips, she had no idea how much fucking power she has on me and she doesn’t realize it.

She can bring me to my knees with just a simple word and I will still fall for her.

"I’m sorry" she began in a mesmerizing tone that caused a hot chill to run through my spine. "I know you’re worried about me and want to protect me, but I’m not making the job any easier am I?"

"No" I shake my head slowly. "You’re not"

There was a moment of silence between us with just us staring into each other’s eyes and not looking away. Her grip on my shoulder further tightened and then she leaned to me in a heartbeat and pressed her lips on mine. I remained still as my baby girl took the initiative to kiss me, her soft glossy lips roaming mine then I opened my mouth and gave her entrance and she stunned me by giving a tongue-measured electrifying kiss to me.

Her hand moved from my shoulder and gradually... gently roamed to my hair and dug into it and a groan vibrated from my chest. I wanted to touch her so fucking back right now but I just kept my hand tightly gripped on her waist, because I wanted to know what more initiative she would take and use to overpower me. And then a thought got to me and I parted my lips away from hers.

"Are you seducing me right now?" I asked with a smile and a tilt of my head. She bit her bottom lip and I got my answer even before she said it.

"M-Maybe" she blushed. "I don’t wanna fight with you, I don’t think I can handle that"

"So you choose to do this instead?"

"Is it working?" she said so cutely and the sweet tone of her voice added to it. My sleeping pride awoke more than I intended and I just wanna screw this girl to the bed right now, but I refrain, can I? Fuck!

"You’re quiet again"

This is for the best because I wasn’t so sure I could form words without growling.

She hesitantly leaned and kissed me again and I let her, that little action of mine gave her courage and the kiss turned from slow to heat, and before I knew it I was already kissing her back with fervor.

She moaned as I shifted my hand and groped her butt. The sweet sound coming from her jammed my brain and I was up on my feet with her legs tightly around my waist as we battled with our lips.

I pulled her down to the bed with our lips still connected, I was halfway taking off her shirt when she stopped me.

"Wait!"

I almost growled at her face but I swallowed it.

"I-I’m still having my period!"

"Baby girl that is the least of my concern right now," I said with a quiet but impatient tone. I don’t care if she was bloody down there, it was all still a wonderful fragrance to me.

"B-But it concerns me, it will be all blood a-and you know how much I dislike seeing blood, this one is not any different"

"Then why the fuck did you seduce me?"
