L'amour Ou Le Desir Chapter 3
Author's Note: Heyyy third chappie! Please read, it just got better, XD for now...mwhahahaaha lol anyways review loves!
I held her in my arms for a while, just gazing at her beauty. She was like a Sleeping beauty in my arms. I waited 'til those beautiful eyes would re-open, showing those baby blues glow lightly from the moonlight's spotlight.
Finally, her eyes opened and I was agape in wonder. She gasped a little, looking into my eyes. Not only have I been allured by her eyes. She was allured too. I can tell by her quickening heartbeat, since her torso was pressed against my chest. Her chest rose up and down in a rhythm I seldom paid attention to. Her eyes were staring into mine, as if she were trying to search for something.
Right then and there, I fell in love allover again.
"M-Monsieur? What...happened?" She spoke in a light tone, breathless as she stared at me.
It took me a while to respond. I could only gulp as I looked at this angel.
"Shh... Beth. You fell faint. It is not best to rouse yourself so quickly, or you will feel queasy yet again" I acknowledged her.
She just nodded slowly as she remained still in my arms. Nothing could ruin the peace I had with her. With Coraline, there was no peace, but violent adultry.
"I...I think it must of been my corset. It is not good to run in a dress" she chided with a small giggled I hadn't expected.
I just smile at her, enjoying her company. I enjoyed her laugh, it made me feel comforted, and warm inside. I didn't mind that our bodies were so close, no matter how arousing it felt, but I only cared to keep staring at her, and speak to her like I haven't spoken to any woman before. This, I enjoyed because I didn't have to think about spreading her legs. I didn't want this beauty to leave my sight, I wanted to hold her like this forever, and inhale her gracious scent.
"Is something wrong, Monsieur?" her voice piped up.
I shook out of my flourishing thoughts and found the time to respond.
"I am fine, Beth." I unexpectedly reached out my hand to let it run through her golden hair.
She shivered from my touch. I quickly retrieved my hand, thinking she hadn't liked my touch. She then rose a golden brow and clicked her tounge lightly.
"It is alright. You didn't have to stop. " I guess she meant touching her hair.
I opened my lips to speak, but then I heard chatter, getting closer and closer. I froze in place, wishing and hoping I could just vanish with the Princess.
Beth took a step back from my embrace and winced at the sounds I heard. I even wished she didn't hear it, so she wouldn't vanish.
"I have to go before my father sees me out here, uncovered." Beth spoke timidly.
Beth turned to leave and I stepped forward.
"No Mick, we cannot speak any longer. My father will rage. He would think you are trying to touch me"
I knew what she meant by touch. She was right, though. Her father would think that I was trying to take her viciously. He would strike her as most fathers did to their daughters when they have been touched, whether it was their fault or not.
"I understand, Beth." I said finally, looking to the ground.
I still smelt her scent very well, so I knew her prescence was still here.
"Thank you, Mick. I shall see you at another time.."
With that, she left. Wait, another time? What other time would she have if she was marrying the suitor soon? I doubt I would ever catch a glimpse of her after she was wed. I stared off in thoughts, stirring thoughts of what happened tonight. The woman I fell in love with wasn't at the ballroom...she was the angel in the garden.
The Princess smiled as she laid back against her bath. The Nurse saw her happiness so evidently.
"What makes your lips lift to the heavens, and eyes sparkle and marvel so much?" The Nurse asked Beth as she poured a bucket of warm water from the tub on Beth's head.
Beth sputtered out the water before responding, "The night seems a bit more lovely tonight. The roses are growing brighter than I anticipated. I think it is the moonlight tonight, I am not sure."
The Nurse looked at her increduously. She proceeded to scrub the Princess's long golden hair.
"I think it is something else, milady Beth" The Nurse countered.
Beth shook her head with blushing cheeks.
"Seems to me these right roses are matching your cheeks" The Nurse observed as she rinsed the girl's hair.
Beth sunk low in the tub after the Nurse was finished with her hair. Her blush reddened even more.
"Ahhh...I see. So, there is something." The Nurse indicated as she crossed her arms and settled by the tub. "What makes you this way?"
Beth finally rose and dismissed the bubbles on her mouth with her hand.
"It is not a 'what'." she pursed her lips, and tried not to giggle like a giddy girl. She leaned slightly over the tub with admiring eyes. "It's a who" she added with a wistful look.
The Nurse gaped. "So you did enter the ball. Child, do tell me you found another veil. Of course you did, silly girl" she laughed haughtily, then continued speaking. "Oh, you must of met, Sir Benjamin, your affianced. He is most seemingly dashing and charming. Your father will be joyously proud!"
Beth then shook her head to everything the Nurse said.
"I did not meet him"
The Nurse's gay expression faltered to a puzzled one. "Oh? Then, who did you meet?"
Beth smiled and sighed softly "His name is Monsieur Mick St. John" as she spoke his name, she said it like a lovesick teenager would when they had a crush.
The Nurse couldn't take anymore surprises from this girl, nearly having a heart attack. "Milady! St. John? The carpenter?" she loudered her voice in shock.
Beth shushed her lightly so no one would hear.
"Yes, the carpenter. He is a quite talented one at that. I met him out in the garden. Oh, Nurse.." She spoke as she got out of the tub and wrapped a towel around her slender waist. "He is so wonderful...and handsome, and sweet. He is kind and gentle, Nurse, if you ever saw him."
The Nurse crossed herself and took a deep breath. "Child, I have never seen him, but heard of him. You musn't go on about thinking of him..." she then froze "Were you without your veil?"
Beth was too caught up in the moment to even care of what the Nurse said. "Oh yes. I was.. the way he looked at me as I him..."
The Nurse went pale and almost fell faint. "No. Bless your heart, child. Do you have any idea what he could have done? He would of stripped you out of your dress and taken you back there. You would have been humilated and blood will stain that dress! Child, do not see that man any longer!"
Beth placed a hand over her chest "Nurse, Gods no! If I never see him again, I shall die a billion times if I don't ever see him again! He would never take advantage of me. He was gentle to me, and didn't care ever if he lifted my dress or not"
The Nurse looked shocked. "You poor, poor, child. Do not tell me you are in l'amour?"
Beth shrugged "I am not sure what I am feeling. I am feeling so many things at the moment."
The Nurse sighed as she helped the Princess into her nightgown. "If you are in love with him, I sympathize for you. He is a commoner. You may never see him again"
Beth's sighs turned sad as she looked to the ground. "I know. I just dread not seeing him so"
The Nurse then brushed her damp hair. "You may be in luck. The wedding is the day after tomorrow. You could ask your father to go to the town again tomorrow. You may see him then"
Beth looked surprised and marvelled by the idea. "Oh Nurse! I thank you for your witted mind and soul!" She turned and hugged the Nurse. "I thank you for this so, so much"
What am I thinking? I am affianced to Coraline, and all I could do is fantasize about the angel I laid eyes on in the garden.
I lie here in my bed in thoughts of what is to be as of next week. I was to marry Coraline then, and we would be together forever. I turn on my side and think about if I shared that forever with Beth. Now, that is a dream I dare not to wake from. I shut my heavy eyes to at least sleep the night away. I am sheilding my very thoughts of the Golden Haired Angel for now..
Mick's Dream: I am laying on the sand and feel the shore of the water, tickling my feet. It is nightfall, and the waters are crisp and dark. I smell the sea air and smile faintly. I then feel a scourging hot being crawl on my skin.
I open my eyes to stare into the dark eyes of Coraline. She had a teasing smirk on her ruby satanic lips. I leant up to touch her, but her hands were wrapped around my wrists, gripping them tightly. I couldn't budge a movement as I stay stunned, looking into her souless eyes. They were ablazed and arousal, and I hated to like it.
I immediately look at what she is wearing, and regret catching sight of it. She fashioned a scarlet dress, which hugged her satanic and lucious figure. Her corset busted her creamy breasts, which looked delicious to devour. All I could taste now, is her sultry tounge, licking my dry lips and curling upward afterward. I was hypnotized by her erotic movements, sliding up and down on my body. She dared tear at my cotton shirt with her nails that seemed like claws or talons. Her eyes flashed this strange blue then, and fangs slid out of her gums. I gaped in shock and terror as she growled against my skin like a beast. I shut my eyes and cringed as I felt a cold breath on my skin, the fang wanting to cut open my jugular vein, but then I felt it stop.
I felt safe then, but a body was still on top of mine. Instead of cold breath, I felt a very warm breath, sending goosebumps on my skin. I shudder lightlly as I feel a small, and familar soft hand touch my revealed toned chest. The hand seemed curious as it timidly touched my abdomen. I smelt that scent I wanted to smell forever and hold it in my heart forever.
I open my eyes, and do not regret it. I gaped lightly as I stared at her. The sun was out, and the day revealed a beautiful angel, the sunlight making her hair aglow like a spirit.
Beth was above me,with forlorn and beautiful blue eyes, which matched the tides of the ocean. Her face was calm as she stared at me with a loving look. My hands were released, so I could finally touch her. I ran my hands in her golden curls again and sighed at how soft it felt in my rough, large hands.
A faint smile appeared on her plump, pink lips. I checked to see what she wore and marvelled at how her breasts busted, even though it was more modest than Coraline's. She wore a beautiful white and blue dress, slim though. Her golden hair flowed and bountiful curls that I still caressed. She then pressed closer to me, lips near mine. Oh, I wanted to kiss her.
She then kissed my nose and whispered against my lips, "Wake up"
I woke and stumbled out of bed. I glanced to see my best friend, Josef Kostan the blacksmith.
He had a light smirk on his face as he shielded himself from the sun.
"Don't do that" I pointed to him, heart racing from the way he frightened me in my sleep.
He smirked even broader as he maintained his relaxed pose.
"What? Use my crafty vampire abilities to sneak up on you?"
I knew what Josef was. He told me in confidence what he was and never was tempted to drain me. He never did tell me though if there were others like him. I could never help but wonder.
"Josef, I had this dream, it was first about Coraline.."
Josef perched himself in my wooden rocker. "Ooooh. Sex, isn't it?"
I seldom ever used the term. I knew it was sex, I just hated saying it that way.
"That's what I thought...then she had fangs...like you"
Josef leant forward in the rocking chair. "You don't happen to think your bride is a vampire, do you?" he still had his smirk, and I knew he knew something I didn't.
My brows furrowed and shrugged at the question. "It could be so. I do not know. It was just a reverie. Sort of like a comparison of the one I met in the garden.."
Josef chuckled "The girl in the garden. Is it the same one you spoke to at the marketplace. Ahhh, the Princess" he waggled his brows. "You naughty boy you, your lower regions stirring from the blue blood"
I shoved my friend lightly, but knew it was futile, for he was stronger than me.
"I do not think of her in such vulgar matter." I argued.
Josef clicked his tounge. "Ah, but there's your problem because you do. Otherwise, you wouldn't have dreamt of both. I assure you, Mick, that even if you are in love with this Princess, you would want to take her for yourself. You want sex with her, right?"
I didn't respond, just hid my blushing face. To this, Josef chuckled.
"So you do.." Josef mused.
I grunted "Well, yes. But not in a manner I would Coraline"
Josef tilted his head. "Whatever do you mean? We all take women fast and hard, it's a way to satisfy us both"
I shook my head, pushing the vulgar idea aside "No..not to Beth. I know, it's ignorant. I wouldn't be able to with her, anyway''
Josef looked at me as if a four-leafed clover grew on my head.
"If you did have the chance to take the Princess, tell me Romeo, how would you?" he mused teasingly.
I looked beyond the window in thougt. The sunlight reminded me of her beautiful hair. "I wouldn't take her so roughly. I would take my time, and just look into her beautiful eyes. If you had any idea how beautiful a creature she is-"
"I would fuck her senseless" Josef finished with a sinister smirk.
Now, 'fuck' was yet another term I hated. I frowned at him and huffed. "No. If any man took her like that, I would have to hunt them down. I would emmbrace her slowly. She deserves the best I could deliever. Like the tides of the ocean and not like you are thrusting a sword. She is so wonderful, and graceful...I would want it to last forever"
Josef whistled lowly and chuckled under his breath "Oh, lad, you are in trouble. You are in love"
I blushed harder and cleared my throat "I might be. I am just a fool though, she is marrying a suitor from England."
Josef made a face "Those Brit pigs? My, I wouldn't even dare touch one. But hey, you've got Coraline and she is marrying you"
I couldn't agree more, but my chest pained and longed for someone else. "I am not sure if I even love Coraline"
At that, Josef stopped rocking on the chair.
"Then, my friend, you are in even deeper trouble"
