Ariana"s eyes grew wide in disbelief. "Are you feeling okay? Why would you need to disinfect me like this? Cayden talk to me... I missed you. I dreamt of hugging you and kissing you again. Don"t... Please don"t act this way." Ariana said pitifully as tears started to brim her eyes. Cayden released her chin and gently wiped the blood from her mouth. "You have know idea what you do to my heart... I"m sorry. I"m so sorry." Cayden said then planted a sweet kiss on her forehead then cheek. "Do you mean it?" Ariana asked. Cayden sighed before he placed his forehead against hers. "Would you believe I"m a jealous man?" Cayden asked pathetically. "Only if you tell me you are then yes." Ariana replied as a slight blush started to creep up to her cheeks. "I"ve been jealous of anyone who is close to you. Man or woman, even creature, for a very long time." Cayden said as he dropped his gaze to Vasu, who was still held in Ariana"s arms. "I believed half of what you said." Ariana replied with a pout.
"You should believe all of it. I"m fighting every urge in my body to not yank this guy out of your arms and toss him aside." Cayden said as he lifted his forehead of off Ariana"s then pointed at Vasu. "But why woman?" Ariana asked as Vasu glared death rays at Cayden. "You are too affectionate with everyone. I want to monopolize everything about you. I"m working hard behind the scenes to make you mine and only mine but everyone wants a piece of you. I turn around and suddenly there is a new rival for your attention." Cayden explained.
Ariana sighed and looked at Vasu. "Can you give us a few moments?" Ariana asked. Vasu"s eyes started to water as he looked up at Ariana. "Please? I"ll make it up to you later." Ariana pleaded. "Fine." Vasu replied reluctantly and quickly turned into light before taking his place on Ariana"s right ear. Just as Ariana"s hands were free Cayden pounced on her. He grabbed her right hand and placed it onto his cheek. "I dream about you too." He whispered before placing light kisses on the inside of her wrist.
"Cayden." Ariana moaned gently. "Your blood isn"t reacting to the air. What did that monster do to you?" Cayden asked as he looked at Ariana, need reflected in his eyes as they sparkled beautifully under the moonlight. "I don"t know but he"s claimed me as his food. I don"t think he"ll leave me alone but it sounds like he won"t attack the other creatures from now on." Ariana explained. "You"re no one"s food but mine." Cayden said seductively as he leaned in slowly. "Can you really claim me like that?" Ariana said in a light, teasing tone. "I want to say so much to you but it"s not time yet." Cayden whispered softly as his lips brushed against Ariana"s.
"Cayden." Ariana whispered. Cayden kissed her slowly, savoring the moment. Ariana felt her heart race as she poked his lips with her own tongue. Cayden shuttered as he opened his mouth. Ariana slowly slipped her tongue inside, she could feel Cayden shivering under her touch. Cayden pulled away, panting, he placed his head on Ariana"s shoulder and tried to calm his breathing. "We should stop here." Cayden said breathlessly. Ariana laid her head on top of Cayden"s soft and silky hair.
"What if I don"t want too?" Ariana asked. Cayden turned stiff and stayed silent for a long period of time. "We can"t go that far. Not until certain things are taken care off." Cayden replied. "I think we will be officially engaged soon. Does it really matter? My heart belongs to you, I want to be with you, I am willing to give up everything and anything to be with you so can we not become one tonight?"
Cayden pulled himself off of Ariana. His face was pale and she couldn"t read his face. "I need to sort some things out first. This has nothing to do with the engagement." Cayden said firmly causing Ariana to feel rejected. "Things? What things? Why are you secretive all the time? Do you not have needs? You"re a young man, all young men have needs, every morning don"t they take care of that need? Am I not that reliable to help you? You must know that I want you too. I"m practically throwing myself at you... Am I not attractive enough?" Ariana asked in a sorrowful tone.
Cayden turned furious, he grabbed Ariana"s hand and placed it on a buldge that was hidden away in his pants. "Don"t talk stupid." Cayden scowled. "I"m trying my best to not rip off your clothes here and now but there are things that I need to do before we become more intimate."
Ariana blushed a bright red. She could feel his member pulsing under her touch. She looked up into Cayden"s face and bit her bottom lip. Daring not to push him further, heaven only knew what kind of beast she would set free if she uttered the words sitting at the top of her tongue. "Don"t look at me like that." Cayden said in a low, seductively, husky voice. Ariana could practically feel her heart bursting through her chest. His look softened and his eyes glazed over. "I"m trying my best to stop myself." He said as he removed her hand from his buldge.
"But I..." Ariana whispered just as Vasu popped back out and jammed himself in between the two. "I gave you more time." He announced as he glared at Cayden. With a light laugh Cayden took a few steps back and turned around. "Thank you for your generosity." Cayden said as he looked up at the sky. Ariana felt relieved and disappointed. She was acting on instincts and really wanted to go further with Cayden but deep in her heart there was fear. She had no idea what her body would do if she lost her virginity.
"Can you walk back the rest of the way?" Cayden asked without turning around. "Yes." Ariana responded almost immediately. Cayden laughed sadly. He brought his hand to his face and covered his eyes. "You should go now. I"ll see you tomorrow." Ariana stood there for a moment and stared at Cayden"s back. She wanted to place her head in between his shoulder blades but the tone that Cayden gave her no choice but to leave. "Goodnight Cayden." Ariana said before she ran towards the dorms.
