Erica's POV

I raised my head from the bed opening my eyes gradually to see Steven wasn't laying on the bed. I glanced around the room to see he was studying and analying something.

I purposely cleared my throat to get his attention. I seriously didn't know why I did such?

He quickly turned his head backwards with a smile then stood up from the chair and walked up to the bed, sat down and gave me a peck on my cheeks.

He's just too lovey dovey and I like that?

"How was your night?"

"It's was good and yours?" I asked caressing his cheek.

Erica what the hell are you doing? I just find myself being soft and sweet around him. I just can't explain this sudden feelings for a vampire king.

"Wonderful because you were beside me." He replied staring at me with admiration.

Suddenly his gaze fell on my chest and looked back into my eyes before I knew it he was hovering against me. "Let me have you.... No let me mark you as mine." He slurred as his eyes always turns red followed by his growing out fangs.

I smiled and caressed his lower lips. "Not really." I answered as he surfaced a frustrated look. "Just let me know when you're ready to let me mark you as mine." He told me as he rested his head on my shoulder and sucked on it. "I just can't let another man take you away from me."

"No one is." I saw myself answering as I was enjoying his light sucks.

"I just want you for myself," he said obsessively and licked my side chin.

Gosh he does know how to make a woman feel soo good. I slowly held his silk hair enjoying his morning touches.

"You will definitely have me." I spoke without thinking.

He raised his head to stare at me. "Erica I..."

"Steven get up from that young lady, you've got something to attend." Ma'am Lucy fling the door open stopping Steven from finishing his sentence.

"Yeesh... Grandmother next time knock." He replied with full annoyance slamming the door close with his telekinesis.

I forgot he had such power.

"Young man don't yell at me. I'm the main reason she's there with you. Besides it still morning, suppress your sextual hormones. Erica to my room now!" Granny kept yelling from the other side of the door and finally left.

Steven groaned feeling frustrated as I saw myself tracing his jaw line. No lie... He's too handsome, too perfect to be just a vampire. I started to trace the bridge of his nose. "You've got to go Steven." I told him.

"I want to be on bed with you." He whined now caressing my waist possessively.

He's just too possessive about what he wants. "Just go, I'm still here ain't I?"

"I'm going because you said so." He told me pecking my lips and I giggled.

Shit! What are all this feelings? Why won't I feel like this? When he treats mewith love.

He pecked me again and I giggled once again. He kept pecking my lips as a smirk was plastered on his lips and I saw myself smiling. The cute pecks turned into a locked kiss as he nibbled and sucked my lower lips.

His left hand slide behind my head. "Fuck... I fucking want you." He swore as his right hand held my waist firmly.

"Steven." I called bringing his senses back. As he sluggishly stood up from me and stride into the bathroom frustrated.

Why is he frustrated all of the sudden?
Such a funny being.

Once he was done in bathroom. He has already dressed in the bathroom and processed towards the room door as I sat on the bed watching him.

"I'll be back." He told me with a wink even though he still had that frustrated look on his face.

I just chuckled loudly. Steven you're something else.

🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼

Once I was dressed on blue blouse which had a v cut at front that exposed my cleaveges a little and a flay skirt, I then walked up to granny's room.

Before I could knock on the door the door was opened. Rosa was the one who opened the door with a smile.

"We've been expecting you," she said.

"Ooh." Was my only reply.

"Come in."

As I did. "What took you time?" Granny asked as I chuckled nervously.

"We've got no time let's prepare lunch and dinner. Morning food has past the time already," she said and I nodded my head.

I was glad she didn't tell me to elaborate how Steven was on top of me.

Through out the day I haven't seen Steven. It got me wondering where he went off to? The sun has already started to set and no sight of him and David.

Suddenly I started to think about him.
Steven can become annoyed when he sees another man close to me. He's obsession over a human like me is getting out of hand.

Everyone has eaten dinner and they went off to go rest and I sat down outside, facing the ocean waiting for Steven.

There was no denial, because I did miss his presence. This is so not me.

Someone sneakily closed my eyes as their scent filled my nostril. Pineapple scent was definitely Steven body scent.

"Steven it's you, isn't it?" I asked with a smile on my face.

"Yes it is me." He replied removing his hands from my face and pecked my left cheek.

"How was your day?"

"Nothing interesting happened and yours?" I questioned back.

"Loads of work." He replied and I didn't bother to ask why?

"You wanna go for a walk?" He requested and held my palms with his cold one.

"Don't you wanna eat?"

"My apologies already ate on my way."

I smiled getting up as he towered me a little. "No need to apologise."

He grinned as he held my right hand firmly as we walked by the bank of the ocean bare footed.

"My heart is so settled to know you ain't angry with me for the way I treated you in the past." He spoke out from his heart.

I just smiled warmly.

"You know. You've clouded my mind in whatever I do or wherever I go. You're always in this mind of mine."

"Go to the brain doctor to do something about it." I answered with a naughty smile as he nudged me with his arm.

"I don't give a damn if you're a human Erica..." He trailed off as he was now in front of me holding both my hands in his. "I want you to be my queen." He told.

I stood, staring at him in shock. Is he crazy? No he's soo bizarre right now.

"Erica I've always wanted to tell you this but because I fear your rejection I couldn't say it out. After days of understanding this feeling for you I come to realise that I love you...." He trailed of again and breath in and out.

"Erica. I love you. I love you soo much till the extent I can't deny it. Till the extent that I hate to see you close to another man. Till extent I want to claim you as mine." He kept confessing his feelings for me in one breath.

Right now I was perplexed that my voice disappeared, my eyes were widened due to his words.

"Steven why are you being absurd?" I questioned almost chocking on my silivar.

"Erica please believe me. I love you soo much. Please." He kept saying as I could feel that his words are true.

"You shouldn't." I told him as my face expression became rigid.

"No no no no no... Erica you can't say that." He begged.

"You don't know what you're saying. I'm human, we are enemies..."

"Erica can you stop dwelling on that." He cut in trying not to yell.

"You can't lo...love me... It's impossible," I said dragging my hands from his warm hold and started running away from him.

"Erica why are you running away from me..." He shouted chasing after me with his human speed.

"He can't love me. He's a vampire king, an immortal. The living has nothing to do with the dead. We are eternal enemies. He sent his men to eliminate my families and captured my people and I into slavery. My people are suffering... My people are suffering." I saw myself saying all those words not wanting to believe that he could love a human like me.

Before I knew it he caught me. "Steven let go of me."

"Erica I can't." He replied holding me by my waist firmly. Before I knew it we fell to the floor and we both rolled into the ocean.

"Steven come on..." I whined as I forcefully pushed him and ran deeper into the ocean.

"Erica don't go deeper, you'll drown." he warned as fear and worry settled on his face expression.

"Don't tell me what to do?" I retorted.

"Erica fuck... You're soo stubborn." He swore coming after me as I splash him water stopping him from doing so.

He proceeded on coming closer and I splashed him water again, being annoyed he splashed me water and before you knew it, it turned to a water fight.

I was tired already and Steven quickly caught me wrapping his arms around my waist. "Got you." he said with a cocky smile as I breath heavily.

The water became a little still as we both got lost staring at each others eyes. "Erica I wasn't joking when I said I love you." 

He reminded me. "And your people aren't slaves anymore. Vethelment kingdom still exist... Is just that I'm their ruler now." He told me removing the wet strand of hairs from my face and placing them behind my ears.

I was surprised hearing such from him. "Really?" I skeptically asked and he nodded caressing my face.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I wanted it to be a surprise when I've made you mine."

"That's too bizarre."

And he chuckles. "Erica do you love me?" He questioned as his question got me hanging.

That's an impossible question to answer. Why the hell will he ask me this knowing full well I don't?

"Erica." He called my name bringing my senses back.

"Steven all I know is that I like you." I blurted out.

Shit! That's not what I should have said. "Damn... You do?" He asked with a happy smile but I gave no answer.

"Woah... I'm so happy you do," he said hugging me immediately.

I could feel that he was very happy.

"Be my queen... No my wife."

"Steven calm down." I told him chuckling in the process.

"You don't understand how I feel hearing you have same feelings as I do even though it ain't as deep as mine. I'm damn happy," he said hugging me tight as I slowly broke the hug.

"The wife and queen thing. I'll think about it." I told him.

"That's soo cool." He responded with a cheerful smile.

"Now let go..." I whined as he did.

I saw myself staring at him and before I knew it I pecked him on the cheek and tried to swim away from him but he held my hands in an instant pulling me closer to him.

"Do that again." He mentioned.

"No... Now let go."

"Yeesh. Rica I liked the way you pecked me just now."

"Whatever let go off..."

Right there he slammed his lips again mine. As he claimed my lips for himself hugging me closer into him as his left hand was behind my neck and his other hand was on my hips, caressing and squeezing it lightly.

Every of his touch was amazing.
He bit my lower lips asking for entrance but I restrained.

He smirked devishly as he squeezed my ass and out of shock I gasped creating an avenue for him to slide his tongue into my mouth.

Shit... His tongue was too long. I tried fighting for dominance but who am I kidding, with such long tongue he won. We broke the kiss as he left me gasping for air.

"We should do that often." He told me with a naughty smirk resting his forehead on my forehead.

I hit his chest with a frown. "Don't squeeze me like that ever again."

"Relax...you're mine. Why can't I?"

He replied with a question and pecked my lips. His actions and words got me blushing.

"I got you blushing, huh?" He asked with an egoistic smile.

"Shut up." I blurted out feeling embarrassed.
"The water is freezy lets go inside." I told him as he nodded. We both came out of the ocean and suddenly the sand was under our feet.

"Go in and freshen up let me pack this up." I told him pointing at the chairs and umbrellas.

"I'll help you."

"No it's fine I'll be with you in a minute."

He gave me a tensed look and nodded in agreement heading into the building.

I started packing the umbrella as I felt an awkward presence behind me. Being fully aware I used the umbrella to attack but the person held it and broke it.

I swiftly turned around to see...

"Nika." I muttered out feeling flabbergasted all of the sudden..
