Chapter 220 - Jeffs Birthday party (7) (1/2)
Aiden thought about breaking Noah's arm and if that will be a sufficient payment for trying to touch Sarah.
Noah used every ounce of his strength to endure pain while staring at Sarah. He found her viciousness beautiful and wanted to have her for himself.
Sarah glanced at Noah and their eyes met. Freaky smile showed on Noah's face; he was elated that she looked his way. However, Noah's expression triggered Sarah's anger to rise again, causing wild beast within her to bare its fangs.
”Either you break his arm, or I will.” She told Aiden through her teeth.
Aiden looked at her dark expression, and hesitated.
In one swift step, Sarah was next to Noah and without batting an eye, blitz of her precise movements caused him to suffer multiple fractures. Noah's ghastly screams filled the room, and Sarah found them strangely soothing. She closed her eyes and smiled when she felt that the dark beast inside her is finally getting appeased.
Sarah felt a warm embrace envelop her from behind. Aiden held her as Noah's screams transformed into sobs, and then whimpers. Aiden kissed back of her head and said gently, ”It's acceptable to give in to the dark sometimes, but you need to know how to come back.”
Sarah turned around slowly and looked in his eyes with a mix of panic and guilt. ”How?”, she whispered.
His eyebrows scrunched a bit. ”I don't know myself... ” After a short pause, he continued while caressing her cheek. ”You are the only one who can bring me back, before my thirst for blood is satisfied.” His gaze was soft and full of love.
'That's right', Sarah thought. 'You are the one who can calm my anxiety and chase away my fears. You taught me what love is. You are my light.' She remembered how few minutes earlier she was rampaging, but when she heard his voice, the beast in her retreated. Sarah didn't say anything for Aiden to hear, thoughts of him exploded within her and the dark beast returned to its slumber. Completely. Sarah rested her head on Aiden's shoulder pacified by his scent. ”Don't let go.”
”Never…” He tightened his embrace.
…
When Aiden and Sarah returned to the party, they found Jeff and Isabella next to the chocolate fountain. Isabella was dipping strawberries and marshmallows in the chocolate, while Jeff stood one step behind her.
Isabella turned toward Sarah and excitement with a hint of fear washed over her when she realized that Sarah returned. ”Are you OK?”, Isabella's concern touched Sarah.
”Yes.”, Sarah smiled warmly. ”How about you?”
Isabella shrugged. ”I will be.”
Jeff walked up to Aiden, and asked in a quiet voice, ”Is clean up needed?”
Aiden nodded providing a silent response.
Jeff stepped away while talking on his phone.
…
Shortly after, the cake was wheeled in. It was a majestic 9 tier white cake with intricate black details. Sarah found that it tasted just as good as it looked. Aiden found it too sweet and Sarah had his share as well.
