Voice Of Love: " If the rays of sunshine stops brightening your dark days, I will be the only sun in your life, love untill there is no end of mine ~ Cedric Arnaldo Dixon "

|| RECOMMENDED SONG: No Time To Die By Billie Eillish ||

Ayra was lost in the world of darkness. Except the dark that was consuming her soul, she found nothing else in her dreamy land. Her pace weakened each moment she passed in the dark lands of her dream.

Her thoughts were out of this world as if her soul had long back left its favourite body. She kept hearing a soft, cautious voice but she was too lazy to wake up from this dream of darkeness. Calls after calls, she heard someone's faint voice and finally felt a harsh pull on her arms.

Startled by this sudden pain of her body, she flaunted open her eyes frantically and found herself on Cedric's bed. Blinking few times to gather up her thoughts, she looked around and was frozen when she saw his icy eyes staring down at her.

Ayra cried out in fear and jumped up from the bed. Staring to crawl backwards, she continued muttering incoherently,

" Don't come near me! "

" Please don't hurt me.."

" I am scared.."

" I won't go for the rabbit anymore. Please don't come to me."

Cedric was clueless about her fear and retracted his hands nervously in fear that he would harm her more. Using his best gentle voice as ever, he tried to coax the shivering girl,

" Ayra, Calm down! No one will harm you! Who the hell would dare to hurt my woman? I will bury him under the sea. Listen to me! What happened exactly? Ayra... Princess.."

No matter how many sweet words he cajoled, Ayra was refusing to hear anything. She was trembling all over her body and was mutturing repeated words constantly. Her face was full of fears as if she had seen something horrible.

Cedric watched her with worry and swiped his sharp gaze around to assure that nothing bad wouldn't have happened during his absence. Finding nothing absorb, he was slightly relieved and gave her few moments to relax on her own.

As the time passed away, Ayra showed no sign of stopping and continued muttering like a insane woman. Cedric started to get anxious. He never had been so patience in his life and this few moments felt like a decade to him. He desperately wanted to know that what gave her so much fears in her very first day in this castle. She was the most powerful woman creature that he had seen so far. Because of her moral values, she hid most of her cruel sides which impressed Cedric more and more. He was an observant man from the beginning. The reality of his life forced him to learn all the malicious things existed in this world. After all, growing up without parents love is never so easy. Fortunately, he managed to pull out himself from this darkeness for the sake of his sisters.

Ayra was crunched at a corner as if she was pleading the bedpost to consume her body. Cedric exhaled a deep sigh worriedly and suddenly pulled up the woman to have her sit on his lap forcefully.

Too immersed in her own fearsome nightmares, Ayra didn't even notice his movements and was behaving like a puppet. Without thinking too much, Cedric pinched on her chin, pushed her jaw up and pressed his cold lips onto her blabbering mouth.

Ayra froze, certainly didn't expect that something intimate could be happened in this terrifying state. She forgot to protest and heard his numb sound of kiss sucking. Afraid of taking a proper breath, she remained motionless and let him do whatever he wished. But surprisingly, her body relaxed much and stopped trembling violently. A warmth spreaded through her soul and she started to come back to reality.

Kissing her for a few seconds, Cedric still didn't get any satisfactory response and left her lips abruptly. Narrowing his eyes deeply, he asked with frown, running his thumb on her sucked lips,

" Better now?"

Ayra was still unresponsive and only stared at him blankly as if she was reluctant to come out from her daze state. Cedric let out a frustrated sigh and suddenly became aggressive with his action.

His big palm reached behind her head and pulled her head forward harshly. Clutching her silky hairs posseively, he captured her lips into a hungry kiss and deepened his tongue deeper inside her mouth. His teeth grazed her lips so aggressively that it started aching after a while.. probably bleeded too.

Finally Ayra let out a growl in pain and reacted at his kiss by pushing his chest away. Cedric was pulled out from her lips and both of them started to breath irregularly. Snapping back to reality, Ayra started wiping her kissed lips hastily and glared at the man deeply to see him grinning wickedly.

Cedric commented with concern,

" Better now or we can resume! "

He spoke again in a threatening voice,

" If you dare you wipe off your lips again, I am going to kiss you again untill your lips started bleeding. I will see then how can you wipe off my mark from you."

Ayra growled sniffing her nose unhappily,

" Why did you kiss me? I was so scared but you.

Shame on you.."

Cedric replied innocently,

" Princess.. That's why I wanted you to come back to sense.."

Ayra grunted without noticing her seat on his lap,

" Couldn't you find another way?"

Cedric replied without hesitation,

" No! After all, it was all in my mind."

Ayra gritted her teeth harder and snorted out coldly. Suddenly her eyes noticed the ambiguous posture that they both had and she immediately attempted to jump out from his lap. But he gripped her more tightly and forced her back on her spot.

Ayra gasped feeling frustrated to fight against his dominance always and laid down helplessly. Cedric without notifying spanked on her ass, earning a sexy groan from her mouth and she was flustered.

Glaring at him harshly, Ayra muttured too embarrassed to say a word,

" You...you..."

Cedric huffed rubbing the spanked spot slowly until her cheeks turned hot in embarrassement,

" Continue being disobedient with me and you will see how I will punish you."

Ayra spoke between her gritted teeth before trying to dodge his mischievous hand,

" I can already see that! Pervert! Do you know that how shameless you are?"

Cedric chuckled finding it relieved to see her mood upgraded,

" Nope, you say! Say that you like this mischievousness of mine."

Ayra was little taken back to be caught red-handed by him. Although he was only stating in a matter of fact but she still felt that her hidden truth had been seen through by him. She always preferred tender love but didn't understand why did she enjoy his teasing games!

No matter what was her thoughts inside, she was never going to expose it in front of him.

She changed the topic in a serious tone,

" If you have nothing else to spout, leave me. I am sleepy."

Cedric didn't let her go instead asked with a serious tone,

" Wait! What gotten with you? Why did you get so scared? Have you seen anyone?"

Ayra bit down her lips nervously and lowered her head down to hide her fears. She whispered softly,

" I..I thought that it was.. you..when.. when my veil was removed..I only saw burning eyes from my nightmares.."

Cedric's face sank at the mention of burning eyes. His grip around her body jolted slightly before tightening more with strength. Ayra felt such chill on her spine that she even trembled while mentioning those burning eyes.

Cedric whispered narrowing his eyes deeply,

" But I came later and found you unconscious. Have you seen his face ever?"

Ayra replied in a trembling voice,

" No! I..I..never managed to see his full face..I felt so chill and fear in his eyes that I always forgot to stay calm."

Cedric fell in deep thoughts and breathed heavily. He asked again nervously,

" Has it ever spoken to you?"

Ayra suddenly looked up at him and questioned out of curiosity,

" Why are you asking so many questions? Have you ever seen him before or it's just my illusion?"

Cedric formed into an awkward smile and replied with humour,

" No! I was thinking that who dared to stalk my wife so eagerly. So I was just catching some informations from you."

Ayra didn't feel any flaw in her words and hummed with understanding. Having seated on his lap wasn't bad either. She felt a great sense of security in his aura as if he was his safety room.

After a moment of silence, Cedric suddenly questioned in a husky voice,

" Princess.. have.. have you ever looked through the depth of his eyes in your lifetime?"
