Chapter 421 Love Conquers All

Lily and I met Gracie bending over her bed looking for what I don't know. She was so lost that she did not realize that she had company in the room. I cleared my throat and she jumped up with a fright. I guess We took her by surprise or so I thought because she was staring at me with her mouth wide open with no word out coming from it. I don't know if she was just surprised or surprised that I visited with another person.

  Lily smiled and waved at her.

"Hi, Gracie. I have heard a lot about you and I must say you are beautiful in person. My name is Lily Theophilus' Aunt and I am just fifteen but please don't ask me how I became an aunt at a young age, it's just happened"

  Gracie recovered from her shock but said nothing, rather she walked to me and drew me closer to her then whispered.

  "Why do you have to bring your aunt to my place? You are invading my privacy and I don't like it."

  I felt sad that she was not was not happy to see me.

  "Sorry about your privacy but she insisted that she wants to see you so I had to bring her here, don't worry after today, you will not see me again. I guessed I am not welcomed here again"

I said and turned to Lilly,

  "Lily, let's go. She doesn't want to see us here"

  Lily stared at her, trying to access her and when she was done accessing her, she nodded her head.

  "Let's go then"

She said and disappeared, I took a last glance and I made to leave when I heard her voice.

  "Don't go"

I was held against my will by those two words. It was more like a command. I did not stop because she said I should stop, it's because I could not move an inch after she said those two words. It was like her words were my command. I found myself doing what she wants without knowing how to stop myself.

  She hugged me from behind and sobered.

"It hurts to let you go. I must confess, I love waking up to see you beside me every morning. I have just Known you for a few days and those days are my happiest days. I know you have a mate and I let myself drown in your sweetness. I don't understand myself but I know one thing, we can't be. You have got a bride and a kingdom to rule. I am just a common girl and you don't belong in my world"

She said sadly

   I turned over to face her and placed my second finger on her lips.

  "Say no more, I am the one who decides what I want, not you, Gracie. You like me and I like you and that's all that matters. Have you not heard, love conquers all."

She shook her head and I smiled.

"No Theophilus, your bride needs you more than I do. I can't be the reason why a witch boy will forsake his kingdom and Bride. I can only do one thing for you and that's, a taste of my blood, it's could be my goodbye gift to you"

   I felt kind of strange when I heard her mention that she would allow me to take a taste of her blood and I thought it could be the cure I have been looking for,I could get over her if I am able to drink her blood.

   "Okay"

She said and raised down her green flaw top she was putting on, exposing her neck.

I swallowed at the sight of her neck and I could even smell her blood. My fangs forced themselves out of my mouth, it was like they suddenly got their own mind.

   "It's okay Theophilus, you can have a bite. It's the least I can do for you although I don't understand what it means to offer your blood to someone, I just feel I have to allow you"

She said, urging me to bite her. I hesitated and thought for a million reasons I should not but found none. Everything in my system was screaming "take a bite" and I don't think that I will stop myself even if I want to.

  She saw how hesitant I was and caressed my cheeks.

"It's really okay, you can take a bite"

   I nodded and sank my fangs into her skin and the world stood still the moment my fang came in contact with her blood.
