Aria #heroine
*opened her eyes slowly.*
Her vision a bit blurr But the surroundings unfamiliar
Aria #heroine
(groans softly)
"wha- where am i?... what's this..."
(wind blows in through a tall window casting a soft moonlight glow.)
Aria #heroine
*looks at her wrist*
"I'm chained? what's going on?..."
Aria #heroine
"Wait... ...
The wolves... yeah... then .. I remembered that sharp pain on neck before I blacked out..."
Aria #heroine
*trys to rub her neck but the chain rattled again. She looks around clearly now*
Aria #heroine
"Why am I locked up and chained?"
Aria #heroine
"It seems someone does living here...that means. . . Did I trespass?."
Aria #heroine
"HELLO!! ANYONE OUT THERE! Help!!!" (yelling)
Aria #heroine
(chain rattles..)
"Am I a prisoner?"
[Door creeks]... open slowly a shadow commenced from the moonlight flashing on his face as he slowly stepped in...
Aria #heroine
"Who's there... please help me get out of here..."
He stepped in and made his entrance.
Dorian
"What a foolish… Human i Believe…"
He closed the gap between them in a second. And held up her chin…
Aria #heroine
[When did he get so close… I couldn't even see him]…
[so- gorgeous...]
(blushing)…
Aria #heroine
Who are you!.. What do you want with me?.. Why am I chained up?...
Dorian
No need to be so grumpy after being stupid… (sighs)
Dorian
I'm Dorian Sterling.... The fourth heir to the throne. Who are you?..
Dorian
You trespassed didn't you?… (smirks)
Aria #heroine
"My name is Aria Charlton ….
I didn't know…. Not only that, but I was running away from the wolves … I thought the castle was abandoned, I didn't intend to trespass… I swear. Please let me go"
Dorian
"Abandoned?.. My effortless stronghold, Abandoned? Now that's just Rude and aplain, lame and stupid excuse..."
(he's grip on her chin tighten up as if almost hurt her)
Aria #heroine
"Please… You're hurting me... I said I'm sorry... I'm really sorry.."
Dorian
"So you're not one of those dumb explorers... Because I'm going to kill you without a second thought..."
Aria #heroine
"No… I swear… I only ran away... I never intended to trespass.."
He looked at her eyes and slowly released his tight grip.
Dorian
(sighs)
"I suppose... Since you pleaded I'll release you for now."
Aria #heroine
"…Thank you.. She said with a low voice."
Dorian
"What is your name again?"
Aria #heroine
"Aria Charlton"
Dorian
*studying her intently*
Dorian
"What a lovely name for a human....
Such sparkling eyes innocent eyes…and soft red lips... .. Black silky hair.."
He said with a low almost whispering tone, and he brushed her lip with his thumb and held a strand of her hair in his hand.
He leaned closer to her ear his breath hot against her skin and whispered.
Dorian
"You're almost tempting..."
[He said his tone laced horse and deep as he whispered in her ear.] …
Aria felt a flutter in her chest and leaned back.
Dorian
"There's no escape, little flower… no turning back… Just surrender your self and your body to Me.. I'll take care of you."
Dorian
*chuckles darkly*
Besides you look like a stray. How about a deal? ... Be my little pet I'll raise you to be my Queen...hmm..
It's been ages..... since i was this tempted..
*he muttered the last part*
He held her hand with one hand and her chin with the other.
Aria #heroine
"What- pet?… You don't even know me and I'll never surrender to you… As long as I live..."
Aria #heroine
*She narrowed her eyes a hint of blush on her cheeks.*
(she couldn't deny his offer was tempting. Since she's technically a stray)
Dorian
"What!?… How dare You… you insignificant speck.. So ungrateful… I saved your life."
He growled angry and irritated.
He scowled and grips Her neck tightly on the wall aggressively
Aria #heroine
(groans)
"S...t…o…p…"
(gasping for air forcefully) she tries to release his grip… But it was too tight… She started feeling dizzy her arms dropping slowly..
Aria #heroine
("Am i going to die? in such a stupid way… I'd rather been eaten by wolves…" )
Dorian
"It's effortless to struggle... Die.. Human...."
(tightens his grip)
