THE UNTOLD
PROLOGUE
"Aro would not be pleased to be disregarded"
He said monotonously, eyes set out of the large carved window sill onto the mixtures of flaming colours trailed behind the setting sun on the west end. He would never pay attention to such wonder. It never bother him before, in fact nothing had ever bothered him before, until 'she' came along.
She took in the still figure in front of her. For the last ten years since she had known and practically lived with him, she could see the change in him over the time. The stiffness and oblivion were still there, but there was something else too. Something that excited her, and worried her at the same time. Whenever she looked into his eyes, they would gleam with something that made her shudder. And then she would keep asking herself if the blame rested solely on her. For she, Eliza Harper Cullen had given a bereaved vampire like Alex a hope out of this relationship which was supposed to be a pretense of sworn loyalty like she confessed to him on the first night they were bonded.
"I'm not going to lie to you, Alex. I need to go back, before Aro finds out on anything. You know I would protect 'them' no matter what,"
"Back to the root, and back to 'him'..."
He turned toward her, his burgundy eyes smouldered. He closed the distance in meticulous steps, until his face, expressionless and stoic, was a few inches from her. His gaze lingered far too long.
She shuddered but held her ground. Hell, she would not back down from the gazing match even when her heart skipped a beat. Nowadays, it was the new Alex that scared her more than the old pensive Alex. The new Alex who would secretly stared at her when she was not looking, or looked at the sunset out of their room like a longing lover or when she woke up every morning to find him seating on the sofa near her bed, with eyes closed, unmoved like a statue. But that was not a real problem now though she would have to deal with it sooner or later. It just had to wait.
"Aro's been taken care of. Now, would you help me?"
