WARNING: PROBABLY SUCKY

Chapter 27: Open Eyes

Vaas's POV

"You ever been in love Chris?" I asked simply as I placed the heavy battery beside his puny head, he started panicking, I merely chuckled at the sight. The feeling when you had someone's life in your hands was amazing. I am sure Bella knew the feeling, she could kill. She could kill anyone she wanted and she, the one to get away with it because she was my girl. My girl got whatever she wanted when she wanted it… If she wanted it, but Bella didn't listen. She was far to stupid to listen and just do as I say. I still had some feelings for her. I couldn't say that it was love just yet, not in this moment and not in the next.I couldn't love her after what she did, she claims to love, but if she truly did we wouldn't be here.
"What?! Seriously! What do you want?! I have money?! I'll suck your dick!" I shook my head and snorted.
"You will suck my dick?" I replied smoothly, he nodded his head violently, I shook my head mockingly.
"Yes, I will do whatever you want man, I will suck your dick!" I shook my head gripping the black clamp and the red clamp, one in each hand. I clipped them to their specified colors.
"Black..." I mumbled.
"Dude stop!" He yelped breathlessly.
"Red..." I ignored, grabbing the wires which on each side held a sponge.
"No, No, No!" He braced for shock as I pressed them to his temples, he shook with electricity running through his body. I only grinned, until it appeared he would not answer me...
"Chris?"

Mirabella's POV

The bed was quite comfy and the room smelt of earth, humid a window above the dresser across from the bed, light peeking out from its shutters. I crossed my arms and stared up at the wooden ceiling, boredom passed over me, I squirmed over the dark chestnut covers, the pillows scattered across the head of the bed. I was far to lazy to take a shower, but it would have to happen at some point.
Just when I thought that my boredom wouldn't subside and my eyelids started to slowly close, I heard a knock at the door. I sat up on the bed, another knock came at the door. I left from the bed.
"Coming." I shouted, part of me told me not to answer it, but I am sure word of my presence had spread through the camp and I was bound to come face to face with another pirate. I grabbed the handle opening up the door to an unexpected face. My eyes opened wide, I gasped a smile came onto my expression.
"Vadim!" I jumped into his arms to his surprise, hugging him hard around his neck.
"Mirabella... What are you doing here?" I pulled away and then jumped up again to kiss him on the forehead. I backed away shyly, he chuckled a smirk following mine.
"It's good to see you Bell, is Vaas here?" I sighed, shaking my head.
"He is with Chris I think."
"Of course, he has been torturing that idiot since he woke up this morning. Vaas dug him in shoulder down in sand when he was unconscious." It was no surprise that Vaas would come up with such a maniacal agony, another reason why he bothered me so.
"Well, come in, if you want. I'm a bit lonely right now." I allowed Vadim to push past me, he found himself a seat at the wooden seat, I sat down on the counter next to the fridge, I opened it easily and grabbed a beer. He raised a hand shaking his head, I placed it back in the fridge.
"What are you doing here?" He asked, I smiled and leaned against the fridge.
"Vaas wanted me to be around for some reason."
"You know you should just give in. I told the men what you did, they respect you. If I were you, I would just go with it and just fucking marry Vaas already."
"Marry?" I shook my head. "Vaas doesn't want to marry me, if anything he wants to fuck me."
"Listen girl, I wouldn't care if I were you. It's bound to happen at some point. You are on his good side girl, every man in this camp would give his dick to be on Vaas's good side... Some actually have."
"I love Vaas, but... I don't think-"
"Just go with it Bell. You guys are the perfect couple." He slouched down in his seat taking a deep breath and relaxing, I wanted to ask how his family was, but then remembered he doesn't talk about them that much because he doesn't see them.
"Bella!" Both Vadim and I froze at the sound of my nickname echoing through the camp. I heard Vaas walk up onto the patio, he opened the door and froze. His smile fading, I chewed on my lower lip. "What the fuck is going on here?!" I quickly hopped of the counter as he glared over at Vadim.
"We were just catching up Vaas, don't be a dick!" His eyes that snapped to mine, he narrowed them on my figure. I can't believe I just said what I said, I called Vaas a 'Dick'! Well whatever, he called me a whore, he deserved it, that didn't mean he liked it.
"What did you just call me?" He growled between clenched teeth, I then realized that he was holding onto what appeared to be a makeshift bouquet, elegant flowers wrapped into a red string of ripped cloth. My expression softened, he... The mighty pirate lord... The murderer... Brought me a bouquet of flowers... He made it himself. I felt my heart melt at the thought that he would do such a thing. Almost as if it wasn't because he wanted some, but because he wanted to gain my true affections. Especially after all he has done to me, that to me... Was the nicest gesture I can get from a man like him.
Then I felt my heart drop when he threw the flowers down on the ground and stomped on them, pointing a finger at Vadim and gesturing him out as though to angry to produce words. Vadim sat up slowly saying nothing as the door closed behind him, I felt my heart beat against my chest, I raised a hand up over my heart. Vaas was silent for a moment just staring at me up and down.
"What was he doing here?" I could almost smell the jealousy in his tone, he was extremely jealous and extremely unpredictable. That's the Vaas I have to get use to.
"He came here looking for y-" I stopped myself at the sight of Vaas's eyes, they were the bad kind, that one time I saw it and I knew he was not the man I fell for almost immediately, from then on it was no doubt that he had changed. He had that dark predator eye, the eyes of a killer... I was scared again, scared of him, of what he could do to me.
"What is it?! Hmm... Am I not enough for you anymore?!" He took a step closer, I flinched away. "Having the most powerful man on this island's attention isn't enough for you?" His voice was low and raspy, he came closer and closer, I backed away until I met the counter. He cornered me off, placing his hands on either side of the counter and closing the distance between our bodies, his eyes glaring down at me with a ferocity I had never seen before, he truly knew how to intimidate someone. I found myself staring back up at him, should I let myself go? Just to Vaas, just to him and him alone. I loved him with all my heart, he was a killer, but after the things I have seen I can look past that. Listen to Vadim, he knows about love. I couldn't lose him, I couldn't just let him go either, he was all I had left whether I liked it or not.
So I felt my mind go blank, a sudden relief and I knew it was all over... I had given up on my past and have finally found myself here right in the sight of the very man I wish to spend the rest of my life with... Even if we don't agree on certain things, even if we don't do the same things. I wasn't expecting to give in so soon, the walls and barriers had crumbled down and now I was defenseless to him. He was only a little to far away for me to reach completely and that made me feel unsafe... But he was physically so close to me, I could feel the heat that radiated from his body… that made me feel safe.
For some reason, I had come back to this island... I don't regret it now as I had before. If I didn't come back I wouldn't have Vaas, who cares if I had to lose some people because if it. It was really meant to be just him and I from the beginning, with the exception of the few children we would have... Not soon, but... Soon enough. I then slowly raveled my arms around his neck and I closed the distance between our aching lips. It felt different this time… It felt free.
