After the vampires finished their teas and sweet treats, they began to remove themselves from the table. The twins and Lilith ran around the garden to play their childish games while Victoria and Parrish made their way to the Gazebo and have a chat. Elisabeta excused herself and walked back into the castle. "Shall we take a stroll through the woods?" Astrid smiled at Ezra, hoping he would say yes.
Ezra stood up from the table. "As long as you do not touch me inappropriately again." he insisted, giving her a stern look. Katerina kept herself on the ground, trying to block out their conversation. She wasn"t comfortable talking or listening to people being so intimate with each other, but Ezra was feeding off of Katerina and her reactions. She was so innocent and he hated that but he also felt himself aroused by it too.
"I will try to contain myself, darling." She flashed him a smile with her fangs and began to walk down the stone path to the entrance of the woods.
"Come." Ezra sent out another command to Katerina and she quickly stood up to follow.
Astrid turned her head and frowned, "Must we bring her along? She can stay in the garden with your sisters and my brother. I"m sure they would love to have a bite of her for an after tea snack." She smiled at Katerina that made her shiver. She didn"t want to be a snack at all.
"No one is to drink from her." He quickly responded.
"Why not? Pet"s are adored for being shared." She looked at him with pleading, doe eyes but he kept his expression the same.
"As I already said. No. Unless you wish to be hanging from my balcony with a stake in your heart." He furrowed his brows, not making a joke about it.
Astrid laughed softly, "Don"t hang me from your balcony, Ezra." She kept quiet for a moment while they continued to walk through the woods, Katerina following slowly behind. "But I would like to hang from your bed posts." She eyed him hungrily. "And allow my naked body to drape over you at night."
She reached up to her corset top, knowing that red was his favorite color so that"s why she wore such a dress. She wanted to grab his attention and also grab his external bodily organs. Her fingers began to unravel a few slots of the ribbon keeping the top together to reveal a large amount of cleavage falling out in front of him. She enjoyed the fact that her feminine body could excite the young prince Ezra, but she also felt such feelings and comfortability with him that she could be able to be so forward. Just the memory of his sweet kiss all over her body and b.r.e.a.s.t.s made her heart skip a beat.
Ezra chuckled, "You have a way with words, milady Astrid." His eyes intensified in their crimson color and hers also with their yellow color. Their stare held for many moments until Ezra broke it with a sigh. "Unfortunately, what we have done in bed that one time is it for me." He confessed.
"Why do you say that?" She questioned, not interested in ending their relationship that soon.
"You know who I am." He glanced at her. "And you know that I have no interest in courting a lady."
Katerina tried to not listen to them but she couldn"t help it. She heard every word and it really began to pinch the nerves of Astrid. Even though she was a polite and caring vampire on the outside, she really wanted to crush Katerina like a twig on the inside.
"And the only interest I have is to pleasure women to their heart"s content. No strings attached." He smiled at her as his fingers reached over to slide over her busty b.r.e.a.s.t.s that were aching to pop out for him.
"I was hoping this would be different." She frowned.
"You hoped wrong, my dear." He stopped walking, noticing that they had reached a deep part of the woods away from the castle. "I will still escort you to the ball, but after that I wish nothing more between us." The blunt words made Astrid boil inside with hurt and despair, but she smiled and nodded in agreement. However, she wasn"t going to give up that easily.
"Shall we return to the castle? I must be off soon." Astrid tied her corset to stuff her b.r.e.a.s.t.s back in place and she began to walk back to the castle.
"Can you return alone? I wish to stay here with my pet for some outside training." He smiled at Astrid and picked up her hand to kiss it softly. "I shall see you in a couple of days, milady."
