Chapter 18

LUNA POV

I leaned closer to him as we share a deep, passionate kiss. I should have fought the urge to kiss him back but, here I am giving him full access to my mouth. I think I am loving his kiss as we sank into the bed. My lips curled with a silent smile over my mouth. Pure happiness brimmed inside me. I just couldn't believe he is kissing me. Hiss kiss becomes deeper and I am starting to lose my mind. As he kissed me hard, my body started to want for more. He suddenly stopped the kiss and I saw him lick his lips. I cannot understand what was that kiss for and now he stopped as if he just did another mistake. I pulled myself out of my thoughts as I glanced over his handsome face. I don't know what to say, I can't believe I just enjoyed that kiss too.

He sat beside me on the bed as if he wanted to tell me something.

"I think we need to rest now Luna. It's getting late. Good night," he said as he lay down on the bed.

I was left shocked. So after that kiss, he will just stop as if it was nothing and it was an accident. And now, we are sleeping back to back in bed. I was with this crazy psycho man in bed. Is that how fast his mind would change? He will kiss me as if he likes me. Then he will stop as if nothing happened. I tried to compose myself as I close my eyes. I need to sleep and forget about it. He is giving me stress. But still, I can't sleep. I want to turn to check if he was sleeping but I am ashamed after what happened a while ago.

I hug the pillow and put it above my head, still I can't sleep. He was not moving, I am sure he was now sleeping. I remember my mom, when I was a kid, would ask me to count one to one hundred then I would fall asleep.

Maybe, I should try that again.

I inhale and exhale then started counting... one, two, three, four, five and I started to doze.

I opened my eyes to see that it was still late at night. I looked out of my stretched window as I listened closely to the laughter in the middle of the night. There was also loud music. I know it was the people having a party all night and falling dead when the sun rose. I felt a pair of arms wrapped around my waist. I felt his hot breath behind my shoulder. I know, it wasn't Hector, it was another man. I can feel his hard chest at my back. I want to go away from him, but I can't. My body was betraying me, it is as if I don't want to go away from him.

"Are you enjoying watching them, love?" his husky voice was appealing.

"Yes," I don't know why I responded.

"That is nice love. They are celebrating your arrival," he said as he kissed the side of my neck.

"I've been waiting for you love, I've been waiting for your precious blood," he said.

And then I woke up. It was another bad dream. I can feel my heart beating fast, that was scary. His words were still ringing in my ears. The man said he has been waiting for my precious blood. What the hell? Is he a vampire?

Anyway, that is just a stupid dream, I have so many things to worry about than that stupid dream. I tried to stretch my arm as I leave the bed. The weather was good today, I can see it from my window. I turned to see food on the table with a note from Hector saying "take your breakfast, and don't you dare to go out without my permission."

Wow, he is threatening me not to go out. That was scary but I don't care. I ate the food he left for me and went to the bathroom for a shower.

I wore a V-neck shirt and gray shorts. I want to go out to breathe some fresh air so I put a little lipstick on my lips.

I walked confidently outside the hotel room, I don't care if I will piss him off by going out without his permission. I still hate him for last night. He is taking advantage of me. He thinks I am a toy he can play with whenever he wants.

Outside the hotel, the sun welcomes me. It was warm today. This is a perfect day to enjoy myself. In the street, I saw people walking and laughing. There are some stores where I can shop for clothes. But sad to say, I don't have money. Hector didn't care to leave money for me just the food. I tried to explore the place but it was still useless, I don't have any money. It would be perfect if I have money.

Maybe I should go back to see If Hector has money that I can borrow.

As I made my way back to the hotel, I saw two men in a black suits talking to some people in the street. They are like asking people or looking for someone. I think I recognize them, it was the same men who went to the mansion the other day. Oh, no, these are the enemies. I tried to hide on the corner of the street. I need to go away from them before they will recognize me.

Luckily, I was able to hide from them and find the way back to the hotel where we are staying. I need to find Hector to tell him that the enemies are outside looking for us.

I used the elevator going to the fifth floor of the hotel building. I am almost running when the elevator door opened. For sure Hector was back in the room. He needs to know. We need to get out of this place before they will find us. I felt the sweat on my forehead as I reached for the room door. I can feel my knees shaking as I pushed the door open.

I was surprised and my vision almost went black on what I saw inside the room. Hector was not alone. He was lying above a woman in bed and they are kissing.
