HUNTING LOVE

Agnes POV :

I think Jairus is my

Mr. Right.

I really do believe it now that he"s my mate.

What he said a few minutes ago__he is willing to accept me with open arms.

Whoa !

His words fell in my ears like a sweet music.

Does these kind of boys really exist ?

Or my man is exception !

Oh why does it matter.

Jairus just confessed to me his feelings.

I replied him with same pa.s.sion.

But __

I"m still confused.

I"ve some questions in my mind__or can say some fears.

The top one is what if Jairus isn"t my mate & I get involve in him so much !

Unable to move on.

What if my heart will get locked by his love ?

What will I do if my soul mate is another guy, I haven"t met ?

What if he couldn"t accept the fact of me being a vampire ?

Though he accepted my one secret and said he doesn"t care what I was previously. Or what I did.

Where I worked.

I guess that was an easy secret to understand.

Though in this bold society it was easy & perhaps it"s common to have such a secret. But....

The most deadliest one is still remaining  !

Will Jairus understand me ?

Will he still love me the way he do now ?

Or once again I"ll face cheating,

defeat by human fears !

Ugh Agnes !

Stop this nonsense for now and enjoy the present happiness with this man who claims to love you like no one else can !

Aye his scent !

I"m unable to control myself while staying besides him.

Now at this moment he"s sitting close by me__driving.

But his every gaze gives me strange feelings. I feel like something flying in my stomach.

b.u.t.tERFLIES !

When he kissed me his warm fingers were crawling on my cold skin like the warmth will creep  into my icey body & will fill it with life.

With the desire to love !

The car stopped in front of the famous ice cream parlour.

Jairus stared at the peaceful face of Agnes time to time while driving.

She was sitting with eyes towards the sky & head tucked to the gla.s.s.

He opened the door & like  a gentleman stretched his hand for her to hold.

Both walked in, with Agnes arm slipped into his. Eyes only upon each other. Heart__ only to love each other.

Jairus POV:

I can"t believe I confessed to her my feelings.

Ugh ! It was stupid of me how I did.

I stumbled upon my own words in nervousness.

Why I was hesitating  ?

After all she was only a girl like others perviously I"ve encountered.

Perhaps it happened because I"ve feelings more like "true feelings" for this girl.

Well I don"t want to loose her neither now__ nor ever.

She had a past which I already knew. I accepted her because I was the one__her nightmare.

But I won"t tell her that for now. That"s not the only reason for my acceptance because I know I was the first man to share intimacy with her.

But the real reason is her innocence, her pure heart & the mind which forces her to tell truth no matter what.

That was different in her__she was different from any other woman I met.

I want her & really I don"t care if she"d slept with any other guy.

I"m in love with her !

And ready to stand by her side no matter how dark secrets she have.

Even I"ve.

And in return to her truth I"m going to tell her mine. She said right we should be clear with each other in relationship.

Will she understand  ?

Jairus pulled out a chair for her to sit & himself dragged the chair out to sit opposite to her. The parlour was quite good. Many posters of ice cream flavours were placed on the wall. The ice cream seemed "rich in taste".

Agnes was keenly looking around. A counter table crowded with people in a queue waiting for their turn. Waiters wearing black ap.r.o.ns on their dresses both male & female staff. The tables were neat & a sufficient distance was between two that customers don"t have to talk "hushly" for private talk !  :D

The wallpaper was sky blue a perfect contast with white furniture. A girl came to both for their order.

When Agnes blurted out "double chocolate with extra chips and extra chocolate sauce".

She was eager to taste the richness of chocolate cream. While Jairus chuckled upon her

"childish act" and asked the waitress whether she took the lady"s order carefully because she hates her things being at fault !

Of course that was out of pure tease. Agnes glared at him which he pretended to ignore and for himself he ordered

"coffee flavour ice cream."

( one of my favourites ! )

They both were talking comfortably.

"So I want to share my story with you."

Jairus was ready to tell her. A seriousness came across his face as he started.

"Well my mother died when I was young. And my father Mr. Michael Ezekiel married again. My stepmother she - she was a cunning and double faced lady. She"d a son with my father, my younger brother who lives abroad with them. Like you Agnes I"ve also a secret that I never told anyone. As I"m on sincere terms with you that"s why sharing it. My stepmother took my first too. Forcefully when I was 12 I lost my sanity too. I"ve suffered much since childhood my father didn"t believed me. My friends started to call me names. I was left with nothing. That fox took my father with her & he too left me in the care of Ruby__my maid servant. She"s the only person I"ve by my side since then. As a father is a father I don"t know what came into his mind. He divided his entire business empire into two parts__between me and my younger brother Jason."

Agnes held his hand and squeezed it a little to stop him. When Jairus lifted his head a tear slipped from Agnes eyes. She could feel his pain.

"It"s okey. It"s okey. And it"s enough for now. As you said we should burn down our past after sharing it. If we want a future with each other."

Jairus was staring  unbelieving at her words.

"Thank you Regena. But that"s not all....I"ve done many things. At that time it wasn"t my fault but what I did after that__the blame completely lies on my shoulders ."

"And what was that part ?"

She simply asked as didn"t cared.

"I - I started taking revenge from every girl I met. And then I used to dump them. Then you came.

And everything changed.

Your presence made me new. I know you won"t believe me but you"re the only one I fell in love with."

His voice became a bit loud.

"Sshush__I believe in you. No one tells his/her dark secrets for just fun. It"s okey my pie. Forget it."

She winked at him to elevate his mood.

As the waitress came with their order. And Agnes immediately dugged her spoon into the ice cream mountain !

( really a mountain ?

Well should be another word here ! )

The love was in the air & everything was going fine. The duo was head over heels in love with each other by now.

Yeah, honesty !

The richness of cream was on their tongue but the sweetness was in their hearts.

When a silhouette appeared near them and a familiar voice interrupted the lovely scene.

"h.e.l.lo my love."

Genevieve was standing in her extremely fit short plum coloured dress. Obviously she was addressing Jairus with that sugary tone.

"What are you doing here ?"

Jairus was dry in his tone.

"Aw what a rude greeting. Obviously I"m here for a desert."

She swayed her navel & said waving her one hand. Then she overlooked Agnes.

"Can I join you both ?"

Evilness was visible in her eyes.

"No. We"re here for our private moments."

Jairus replied her bluntly.

"Oh like you used to spend with me. I miss those physical pleasures !"

She stressed upon the last two words obviously to see Agnes" expressions.

( btw who the h.e.l.l enjoys that kinda moments in public ? )

Before Jairus could say anything Agnes stood up to gave her a answer.

"Actually those kinda moments a husband want to spend with his wife !"

Whoa !

A slap in Genevieve"s face !

She cringed at the answer. Jairus stood up & held Agnes by shoulders to prove her reply "true".

"You heard that. Now leave us."

He mocked at her with those harsh words. Genevieve left stomping her heels on the ground with anger.

"Whoa Regena !"

Jairus was still stunned at her reply.

Agnes brushed her cheek with nail in mixed feelings of embarra.s.sment & blush.

"Well I couldn"t think of any best answer than that."

Jairus chuckled. And Pinched her nose.

"It was quite good one. Well done Mrs. Jairus Ezekiel  !"

He teased her with that t.i.tle. Upon which Agnes" cheek got red. And the spark of love circulated in her body.
