SPELLBOUND

Suddenly, her vision spun as she was flipped over before realising that she had been pinned down on the bed. He hovered over her as his intense gaze stared fiercely down at her.

"That's right. You know me. You already know that once you touch me, it will never be enough for me until I debauch –" he forcefully stopped talking. Then he shoved himself off of her and jumped from the bed before he stormed away angrily – but was he angry at her or at himself?

"Wait! Where are you going?"

He turned and looked at her over his shoulder, and for a moment, Evie suddenly felt chills run down her spine. His eyes…

"I'm going to find someone else to f*ck." He said with a dark voice and Evie's eyes widened in shock before anger slammed into her, causing her vision to waver at the corners.

The next thing she knew, she was already by the door, blocking him with her arms stretched out to her sides. "Don't you dare!" she yelled at him, her amber eyes blazing in anger.. "This body is mine! Mine!! No one else can touch you but me! You… asshole!" she screamed at him, not holding back on the volume of her voice and he stumbled backwards as she pushed him back into the room.

Gavrael suddenly pressed his palms to his forehead as Evie panted from anger, standing before him with her arms akimbo. "No, I'm sorry. That's… that's not me. That was –"

Evie pushed at him again, hard, and he did not bother keeping his balance and allowed himself fall back the moment he felt the back of his knees hit the bed.

He fell onto his back, and he felt Evie climbed on him roughly, straddling him. Her pretty face was still red in anger.

Those words that came out of his mouth were not his. He could not believe his darkness could go to this length just to separate him from Evie. It seemed that his darkness had realized that Evie was superior when it comes to controlling him. And in the couple of times that he had made love to her, his sanity had become much better and clearer right after, and his darkness was unable to influence his decisions as how it had done so before.

However, whenever he tries to fight his desire for her, his darkness becomes stronger.

"Tell me," Her voice brought him back to the present and he realized she was about to cry as she slammed her palms on the bed right next to his ears. "Did you… did you bed someone else when I'm… when I'm –"

"No." He cut her off before she could even finish her question, knowing that it would kill her and him if that question could be uttered. Then he pulled himself up and tenderly cupped her face with both his palms. "Listen carefully. I. Have. Never. You hear me? I only desire you, Evie. I told you, that wasn't me, just now."

Her anger finally subsided a little and she bit her lips as she stared up at him with teary eyes. "Really?"

"Yes. I'm sorry. Every time I… I try to fight my desire for you, my darkness somehow manages to…"

She hugged him then kissed him. When he was about to return the kiss, Evie pulled away.

"I'm still mad at you, though." She told him unhappily as she pouted. "How could you allow your darkness to make you say such an awful thing? If I'm not what I am right now, I'm sure those words would have been enough to break me."

"I'm sorry. It's sometimes not under my control."

Then she climbed off him and started to undress. Right before his eyes.

Unbeknownst to Gavrael, what happened earlier had scared her to her core. She could not believe his darkness could even make him say things like that. Now she understood the severity of his situation, the power of his dark magic over him – it was like another identity was in him. It was terrifying. If it could make him say such a thing, what more awful things could it make Gav do without him even realizing the next time? It does not even look like mere puppeteering anymore; it was far worse! At this rate that thing she was scared of the most would happen!

She could not help but feel more terrified specially at the thought last night did not even do anything to affect him at all. That was her last chance and it had failed – yet again. And that was why she was in an utter dilemma until just now. While he was raging quietly, as Evie was staring into his fiery blue eyes, a thought finally came to her. That was right. It is not over yet!

Evie was going to make him bite her. And she was going to make him do it. She had thought about this before but since she's no longer a virgin, she thought that it might not work. However, she still wanted to try. She remembered that they said her blood was unique. Perhaps, her blood will do wonders. She believed that it must be the answer.

Since there was a huge possibility that he will refuse it if she tells him directly. Besides, there was his dark magic that was already self-aware as well, Evie could only decide to do it this way. There was no other choice and there is no more time left. She knew she could never win against him if another argument broke out if she just went on and tell him to bite her. Moreover, she was afraid his darkness will do something again once it hears what she was planning to do.

"I'm sorry too… because 'Sorry' is not enough for me right now." Evie said.

He looked incredibly troubled now. His jaws clenched in quiet anger. "What do you want me to do? If my darkness was a person, it would definitely be torn out to pieces by me now in the most gruesome way possible. But I can't even –"

"F*ck me." She said and Gavrael's eyes widened. Its obvious he did not expect her to use such harsh word on herself. Well, she herself was surprised but she realized she had said that word because of those same words that came out if his mouth earlier.

"Make love to me, debauch me, ravage me… and do anything I will ask you to do. If you do that, I'll forget about those words earlier and forgive you." She added and his throat worked as if what she had said made him salivate. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down so slowly as he looked at her in disbelief.
