I didn't know how to help Barnabas, in what ways could you kill Angelique, and she was quite strong, maybe even stronger than me. I did know that she was weak on days when I was quite powerful, such as the day of the full moon, she had almost no power, and I had tons. She was also weaker when she was in unfamiliar territory, we could use that to our advantage.
Barnabas came back the next night. "Angeline would you like to walk with me?" I don t know why but I had the impulse to say yes, to just spend some time with Barnabas. Besides walking with him what could that hurt? I nodded yes and left the manor, at first it was quiet, and then Barnabas grasped my hand and looked in my eyes.
"Why won't you tell me you love me Angeline?" He asked with intrigue. I turned around so he could not see me cry.
"Because you'll just leave me again, for some wench." I finally let out that thought. He turned me around and kissed my tears away. He embraced me tightly.
"But that isn't the truth, my love." He stared at me intently, with what looked like love reflected in his dark eyes. I was shocked, which caused me to back away. I was not expecting that, was he just saying sweet nothings in order for me to do what he wanted. Was he intending to use me, I was extremely confused. What was I to do? Should I help him, and let him continue this charade? I love him and will do anything for him, but was it worth it in the end?
Did he truly feel this way? Did he love me, and actually care for my well-being? I took a step forward trying to find any sign of deception in his eyes. "There's no need for you to try to deceive me, I will help you get rid of Angelique."
He seemed disappointed. He walked towards me, and embraced me he pressed his lips to mine. His lips were soft, and delicious. I kissed back hungrily; I could not get enough of this. It had been hundreds of years since this last happened. I stuck my hands into his hair, and he pressed me against his body. This was getting quite heated, quite fast; I removed my hands from his hair, and put them on his shoulders and pushed him off of me.
He looked surprised, and a little disappointed.
I screamed at him "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING? YOU ALREADY KNOW I LOVE YOU. ARE YOU JUST TRYING TO HURT ME AGAIN?"
He looked annoyed, if not a bit irritated. But what did I care, I ran off leaving him in the middle of the forest. He sped up to catch me, I was not looking where I was going I collided with something, and fell on top of something hard. I opened my eyes to see Barnabas under me. I tried to get off of him, but he wouldn't let me go.
I warned him "Barnabas let me go."
"No." he replied.
Fuck he was going to be difficult. I tried again to get up, but to I didn't succeed. He continued to stare at me.
"Barnabas let me go." I demanded.
"No." He replied.
"Why not?" I asked with an irritated tone.
"I will never let you go Angeline." Even though he was trying to be sweet I didn't believe him.
"You're a bit late for that Barnabas." I spat out, still angry at him, for leaving me all those years ago.
He lifted us up, so we were now standing on our feet. "Please give me another chance Angeline." He pleaded with me. I looked at him to see him quite sad; I could never say no to him it was a weakness of mine. I nodded yes.
He embraced me and while staring into my eyes whispered "I love you Angeline." This caused me to smile; we shared a brief but heated kiss. And we walked hand in hand back to the manor.
