Destroy My Life In You
Chapter 31: The Man In Her Dream

Chapter 31: The Man In Her Dream

The night was colder and darker than usual, wrapping the world in its eerie stillness. A small feminine figure was lying peacefully on a bed, wearing a white night dress that covered her up to the thighs. The wind was whirling inside the room sending scary chills to the young lady who was trying as much not to move, pretending to be asleep.

"You can’t run away from me." A male voice filled the room, scaring the lady out of her wits, but she still remained unfazed and continued feigning sleep. "Mine. Only mine."

She flinched and let out a gasp when she felt the other side of the bed go down with weight, and knew the person had come for her. She opened her eyes but did not turn around to face the person. Her body was frozen in place as fear filled her whole being.

"Look at me, my love." The person added and moved even closer to the girl. "I want to see your beautiful face."

The man’s hand stretched and fell on the girl’s bare shoulder. After a few seconds of silence, he started tracing his fingers back and forth on her entire arm, then gently turned her, making sleep on her back.

"Who are you?" The girl’s asked when her eyes fell on the man’s face that was not clearly visible due to the dark of the night.

The stranger man chuckled light before cupping the girl’s cheek and rubbed it gently. "You can call me whatever you want, my love."

The girl went quiet as she savoured the feeling of his touch. As if enchanted, she started yearning for more with every passing second. His hands felt hard yet so soft on her skin. They created a warm ball in her heart slowing her heartbeat.

The man’s lips formed a curve feeling her response to his touch. Leaning forward, he got closer to her face, clearly seeing every single structure of it. "Can I kiss you, my love?" He whispered underneath his breath.

The young lady just nodded her head subconsciously before closing her eyes. The stranger smiled wider and without any hesitation, he captured her lips devouring them like he had been waiting for it. Licking, sucking, biting, he just could not stop especially when the girl under his arms was responding so passionately, awakening the beast in him. He held her tighter pinning her arms on the bed above her head with one hand, as his lips found their way to her neck. He kissed and bit her then licked it teasingly. His other hand was caressing her inside thigh gently and softly, making her let out agonized moans as if asking for something and she did not know what it was.

When she was about to dive into pleasure, she felt something on her neck. It was not the man’s lips but something else and before she could contemplate what it was, the man sank the same things on her neck making her let out a loud scream.

"Ravenna! Damn it." Alaric’s desperate voice echoed in the room as he shook the sleeping girl whom he had been trying to wake up for some time now. "Fucking wake..."

Ravenna sprang up from the bed breathing heavily, holding her chest. That dream felt so real that the fear still lingered in her mind and heart. She was almost dead sure that the girl in her dream was her, while the man, it felt so much like Alaric. His touch, his kisses, the way he whispered to her seductively, it was just like him. Surprisingly, she could feel the kiss and touches as if it was being done to her in reality.

"Am I mad?" Ravenna whispered to herself still having not noticed the man who had a gloomy look on his face. "How could I feel..." She paused placing her fingers on her lip and blushed heavily.

Alaric expression turned dark wondering what and with whom she had been dreaming about. From the look of things, she had dreamt being kissed watching her flushing so furiously, while touching her lips. He had so much tried to wake her up even kissed her hungrily while she was in a dream with some man. It must have been someone she fancies to even dream of him. He wanted to kill whoever that was. As if possessed by something, Alaric grabbed her hand and pulled her off the bed making her stand in front of him.

"Who is he?" He questioned tightening his hold on her wrist.

"Hey! You are hurting me. Let go." All her struggles turned futile in front of him.

"Don’t let me repeat myself." He roared near to her face.

Ravenna had never seen such animosity and anger in his eyes. The similarity between that man in her dream and Alaric was undeniable. Their dark aura and voice, it felt and sounded the same.

Still wiggling, she asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Who was that man you were dreaming of kissing you? Don’t even dare lie to me." His anger scared Ravenna at that moment.

"I don’t know." She replied tears welling in her eyes as the pain in her hand got worse. She was hurting, not from the physical pain but her heart was wounded. He got so angry for such a trivial matter and ended up hurting her so easily. Wouldn’t he kill her one if she did something extreme? But that was the price of being in love with a possessive person which she had to endure. "But it felt so much like you." She added truthfully facing away from him.

Alaric instantly dropped her hand looking for any traces of lies on her face but she would not look at him. "Look at me. I want to see your face."

Ravenna felt her heart skip a beat remembering something. The man in her dreams had also said almost the exact words to that girl, and Ravenna subconsciously looked at Alaric feeling like things were repeating themselves. It definitely was him, the only difference was the man in the dream was warmer and Alaric, he was cold almost freezing her to death.

"You are mine now. Remember that." Alaric added holding her chin. "Only mine." With that, he matched out of the room and Ravenna collapsed on the bed, letting out a restrained breath.

Burying her face on her hands, her beautiful images of Alaric were replaced by his angry, death look expression. The way he glared at her as if she were his biggest enemy and could not wait to snap her neck or slit her throat as he loved to do to people. He scared the wits out of her like never before. Even though he has never been that very warm to her, at least he never hurt or anything.

"What did I get myself into? I hate being in love already."
