Chapter 2
`Tyki
Why did I just do that? I have nothing to really regret now if I continued on with it like I always do with others. I should have done what I was asked to do as ordered by the earl.
He is an exorcist... No, she is an exorcist. It is a curious thing as to why she is dressed that way. It may be due to being an apprentice to Bookman. Are not females allowed to succeed? Or are they dressed that way to avoid things like what almost happened from occurring? No matter how heartless or indifferent one might act, fear can still be instilled and may affect that character or persona as they call it.
Is it merely a whim that I did that? It would really be boring if things merely ended that way. Indeed this would be interesting but what was that?
What was that sudden feeling of a painful tightening in my chest when I saw that pained expression on her face?
It can't be guilt. I shouldn't feel such emotion.
I am supposed to be used to seeing expression like those. I have killed thousands and enjoyed it, I have had the pleasure of doing it as the Noah I am... so why had I stopped? Why did I not seem to take pleasure in doing it when I saw that expression?
Something is wrong. This can't be right. And the last thing I did before we parted... I never really did anything like that before. It was as if on impulse that I did it that way. It wasn't forceful or rough like I usually did it. It was short but somehow sweet, those soft lips really tasted sweet.
That's right, it would be boring if I ended things short. I'll take it slowly so that it would be lasting for now unlike the usual where it easily fades away.
`Lavi
Should I return in a week? It's probably a trap but I don't know why, the day came and I found myself back here.
I couldn't understand why I came. I'm just putting myself in more danger yet I just have this feeling that nothing wrong will happen.
Waiting in the same room, I sat on the chair by the window and looked at the crescent moon. It isn't a full moon like that night but it shape still looks so perfect.
The wind too is very gentle, a light cool air brushing past my skin from the open window. My weary eyes finally closed after hearing that lullaby for awhile now. The winds plays such a gentle tune like a lullaby. Sleep overtook me and brought me into my dreams.
`Tyki
I arrived at the same place that evening and found the Bookman apprentice sleeping soundly by the window with her hair down. Her clothes doesn't really suit that pretty face. She looks more feminine with her hair down though, I understand now why she often wears this bandanna but what is the eye patch for? I never really understood.
Looking at her peaceful face, I suddenly feel my inner side feel like going out but I stopped it. I can't loose control and destroy this peaceful look on her face. I feel like watching it even if it costs me the whole night.
It didn't happen though since she finally woke up.
`Lavi
My sleep was somehow peaceful. I slowly woke up upon hearing a sound. My eyes slowly opening suddenly turned wide. Heat flushed my face upon seeing how close his face was to me.
Normally as a Bookman apprentice, I shouldn't be this surprised but I can't seem to hide my embarrassment at all. His face was really too close as if he were about to kiss me.
Waah! Why did I suddenly remember that parting kiss he placed on my lips. I don't really know how I look like right now but I bet I making such a spectacle of myself.
He merely smiled though and chuckled a bit but he didn't distance his face at all.
In fact it got closer and closer, wait... No way, he's going to kiss me again. I should get out of the way but I-
can't seem to move at all as if I were frozen in place and then-
`Tyki
She woke up with such a cute face. Seeing her that way made me want to continue what she assumed from that distance.
I slowly came closer and closer. I stopped a short while to see her flushed face that can't move out of the way. She's frozen in place and not moving.
I couldn't take it anymore letting it take this long to taste those sweet lips, I held her face with one of my hands while the other brought it closer.
Our lips finally touched and it stayed that way for a long time.
`Lavi
My eyes were closed but I can feel his lips touching mine. It wasn't like a light peck and distant but rather very close and intimate, it took so long that I found it hard to breath.
He didn't let go though and pulled me closer. It stayed long and passionate.
`Tyki
That had been the longest one I have done. I'm never really one to do anything passionate but... the feel of her lips made me want to prolong it so much to savor the taste and feeling.
I may have gasped for air just as she did after that but I don't care. It is worthwhile.
And it left me quite a beautiful sight, seeing his flushed face out of breath.
Seeing her that way made me want to have another go but I didn't. It won't do at all if I lost control.
`Lavi
Why did he just do that? Why did he even ask me to go back here?
What does he want?
"The restaurant is still open, would you care to join me, lovely?"
"Don't call me that. Why did you ask me to go here?"
He merely ignored my request.
"Why don't we talk it over dinner, lovely? You wouldn't want them to know, right?"
That's true. I had been really careless and now the enemy knows. He clearly has no plans yet to kill me but what does he have up his sleeve in asking me to come here?
What does he really want? I don't really get him.
I don't-
I can't understand this feeling at all. I know I should not have come in the first place. I know I should have left but-
what is this feeling drawing me here?
Is it really because he's the Noah of pleasure?
I shouldn't let this happen. I shouldn't be this confused.
I should just get to the point.
"Why, Tyki? What do you want from me? Why had you not killed me?"
"Didn't I say it was thanks for helping me?"
"How about now?"
"Do you wish so badly for me to kill you? If that is what you wish," he said while passing his hand through my chest.
He saw my shocked face and took it out. "You don't really want to die yet you suggest such a thing."
"Why though?"
"Let's say it's a whim. I find you interesting and we aren't entirely enemies. You are part of the Bookman clan first before being an exorcist."
"I can't understand you at all."
"All I ask of you is time and then I'll answer any question you please. You hunger for information, do you not, lovely?"
