章 42: Love in the light - Part 4

Kieran's lips lingered on her forehead for a long time as he kissed her, pouring out all his love and longing for her as well as the guilt that had accumulated over time in his heart. He caressed her forehead, pushing away the strands of hair that had fallen over her face and took in her exquisite features.

"You look as beautiful as ever, darling." He mumbled softly, letting out a blissful and contented smile. "I have waited for you all these years that it drove me mad. I often lost control of my desire to kill the people who separated you from me. But I stopped myself, for I know you would like to deal with them yourself."

He leaned forward until his nose was touching her neck where the vein was and he took a deep sniff. Kieran's eyes darkened, his blood lust coming back to him. "You smell divine, darling, as always and I wish to taste your delicious blood. But no, I will not do it, not now, at least." He muttered in resolution and caressed her cheek.
