RECOMMENDED SONG: Willow By Taylor Swift ~?

Aaron was astounded as his ears couldn't believe what he had just heard. From the moment, he knew her, he figured out that Esme had deep hatred towards blood or other eatable things that vampires devoured.

Looking up at her perplexed expression, he blinked blankly and wanted to decipher her condition. Even though she was perfectly standing still, he felt a sense of weirdnesses behind her eyes. Rather than looking away somewhere else, her intense eyes leaped on his bruised lips which had a stain of blood naturally. After all her tiny teeth were quite sharp and flexible.

On the contrary, Esme was unknown about her own abnormalities but she could feel the sudden excitement coursing through her mind as soon as she spotted the warm blood of Aaron. Feeling intoxicated like a hypnotized person, her eyes observed his slightly flowing blood which left at a corner of his lips. She felt like though watching his blood was giving her deep pleasure.

Before the situation could turn bizarre, Esme felt a sudden sore in her head as she whimpered in pain stumbling on her feet and clutched the barstool aside for supporting her balance.

Aaron was startled at once as he was too lost in thoughts after hearing out her weird words. Just like a fly, he jumped on her side and held nearly the falling figure cautiously. 

This time, Esme didn't faint but her headache was terrifying as if some invisible powers were absorbing her powers gradually and turned her sick. Wanting to break free from Aaron's arms, she took a little attempt but his grip was stronger and tighter.

Glaring down at the disobedient woman, Aaron scolded ledding her outside of washroom,

" Don't try to get away from me unless you want to lose your legs."

Esme vaguely heard his words and sneered coldly.

Why was he damn overbearing always?

Thus under his scornful gaze, she could obediently come back into the room before climbing up over the bed. Leaning against the bed edge, she leaned back leisurely and saw him sitting down beside him.

She didn't look at his face but his anxiety was clear as he didn't pull away his eyes from her for a moment.

The night was deeper outside as the moon started disappearing out from the luminous sky slowly. As the wind blew gently,their awkwardness turned more stiff as if no one was ready to break the bridge.

Aaron was loosing his patience as he asked out gently,

" Are..are you still feeling sick? Have you eaten anything unhealthy? Why are you vomiting all of sudden?"

He questioned impatiently and waited for her answer. As he never took care of a woman so closely, he was unaware about the normal changes of a woman's body.

A few seconds passed away..

Esme didn't give him any answer but his anxiousness continued raising. Biting her lips down tightly, Esme finally responded in a low voice looking away into the darkness through window,

" I am alright. It might have caused because of the foods that I had at lunch. You don't need to worry about myself. I can go back to the confinement room now. Please call your guards."

Aaron's face sank immediately as he couldn't help but feeling bitter after hearing out her cold words. Gulping down, he observed her face deeply and didn't see any sign of compromising.

Finding a topic to change her attention, he suddenly spoke gently taking time to light up her dull mood,

" Mother has gone too far today. I have restrained her powers after today's incident. You shouldn't worry about her anymore."

Esme glanced at his face finally and tried to confirm his words which made her shocked.

Did he punish his mother for her sake?

Looking at his regretful face, Esme's tears nearly fell down but she replied with difficulties,

" You shouldn't have taken such a harsh way to deal with her. After all, she is your mother. She is your responsibility."

Aaron replied indifferently never missing any of her expression,

" You are my wife and responsibility too."

Esme's body turned stiff as she clutched the bedsheet involuntarily. This pain of deceiving your loved was killing. He used such simple words to show his responsibility but the sincerity behind his words were truth like sun. She knew that he would be there for her always whenever she needed him.

But can she give him back anything in return? No!! She could only cause him loosing everything one by one.

Closing her eyes off gently, she spitted out whispering softly,

" Call out the guards. I want to go back to the confinement room."

Aaron panicked instantly as he couldn't dare to send her into the dark room in this state. Moving her side a little, he coaxed in a low voice,

" Esme, don't get on my nerves now. You must take rest as you are feeling sick. Once you feel better, we will discuss about it."

Esme shook her head refusing his proposal and urged stubbornly,

" No, I am the criminal in your eyes. I should be punished according to the rules of moonshine. Please take me back into the room."

Aaron was helpless and knew that she was determined to get back into the confinement room now. 

But how could he send her back unless he would have heart attack!!!

Thus he changed his tongue into a softer one and tried to bargain with her sighing helplessly,

" Fine, I will take back my order if you tell me now that where did you go."

Esme jolted a little and tried to hide the uneasiness in her heart. Putting down the stone over her heart, she replied half truly,

" I went to hangout with Carol outside. You don't allow me going out so I chose to go alone. Carol really..."

" Sssh..." her words were interrupted as a cold palm brushed on her cheek and the tip of his fingers traced her lips gently.

Feeling little dumped, she blinked innocently before looking up at his face which had turned stiff after hearing out her words. Sighing deeply, Aaron whispered taking a sharp glance of her pale lips,

" I just need to know that you didn't try to leave me,did you?"

Esme was stunned looking at his way blankly. This was the first time that she saw such vulnerable side of him. He never showed this rare side of him to anyone except her.

Feeling little regretted, Esme whispered softly keeping her gaze locked on his expressionless face,

" If I wanted to go away, you wouldn't see me ever again in this life."

Aaron was startled as soon as her words came out and felt himself dissolving into the depth of ground.

He wouldn't see her ever again in this life? 

He kept quiet and felt the heart inside his chest pounding vigorously. Struggling to keep his words restrained from choking, he commanded lowly,

" Get some sleep before the healer arrives."

Esme was slightly relieved that he didn't pursue the topic anymore and slided into the blanket swimply. Peeking her eyes out, she suggested watching him sitting down motionless,

" Why..why don't you get some rest with me? "

Aaron snapped out from his thoughts and slipped out from his shoes before shifting on her side quietly. After sliding inside her blanket, he didn't lay down instantly and leaned back against the bed edge pulling her closer.

Esme laid down quitely a little far away from his chest and vaguely felt the uneasiness in his mind. He didn't speak out a single word and kept pondering alone.

When the other party didn't make a noise, Esme felt confused and tilted her head up. Aaron was gazing through the walls ahead pondering in deep thoughts as his attention was nowhere to be found.

Knitting her brows together, Esme suggested slowly,

" Why . why don't you close off your eyes and take a good rest? At least you are a living creature and need to take rest."

Aaron jolted as if her words had took him back into reality. Looking down at the woman who didn't bother to leave him alone, he replied truthfully curling his lips into a faint smile,

" I am afraid that if I close off my eyes, you will be gone."

Esme's face sank immediately as the corner of her eyes instantly teared up. Wanting to say something, she parted her lips open but Aaron interrupted pulling her closer and embraced her with one hand,

" Go to sleep. I am here."

Esme sniffed and curled up into his embrace tightly without saying anything.

Soon silence dropped into the room as her breathing turned shallow under his warm embrace. Aaron took a glance of the sleeping woman in his arms and looked back outside at the almost drowning moon in the sky.

His mind reminded him once again..

You have only three more days before the new moon appears out!

Choose between her or your life !
