My hair is whipping my face while I'm looking up at the sky. The balcony is getting further and further away from me. The sky is a beautiful blue, the sun behind the clouds. Is this how I'm really going to die? Without knowing who is secretly trying to kill me? I close my eyes and I know the ground is right below me. I'm going to hit it hard.

I don't.

I'm forcefully caught in someone's arms and when I open my eyes... I'm coming to face with Xavier. He is breathing deeply but my face must be much terrifying than his. Sweat is formed on my face and my breathing pace has quicken. He softly lands me onto my feet, my toes curling in the green grass. His hands are on my waist for support and my body feels like a feather. I look up and the balcony is hundreds of feet above me.

I glance down but I come to face with his blue eyes. I look at them while he stares back at me. My head is spinning and my thoughts are running. I don't know what to think, I'm speechless. Xavier Dagger just saved me from my death. He caught me while I was falling, ready to feel the impact. I just wanted to hug him but I couldn't. I don't know why. I realize that he licks his bottom lip and I do this same thing. Are we going to kiss?

"You caught me." I whisper to him, his forehead leaning against mine. He lets out a shaky breath and a smirk appears on his lips.

"You did say 'catch me' before you fell off." We don't talk for a while, just listening to our breathing that's circulating around us. He leans closer, our lips inches apart until we hear a gasp and feet ruffling over the grass.

"Did you try killing yourself!" We pull away from each other awkwardly, taking a step away from each other. I come to eye Alexander and the rest of the family.

"No, I didn't, someone pushed me." I say and the King narrows his eyes to Xavier. Suddenly, Xavier is tackled to the ground and the King is on top of him. He throws a punch across his face and Xavier groans in agony.

"I didn't do it!" He shouts to his father and that's when the King stops. Alexander pulls him off of him and they both get up, the King apologizing for his actions.

"There must be a witch still alive because she is being controlled! The person is controlling her and trying to kill her!" Xavier shouts to his family and I nod besides him.

"We need to find out who this is. Everyone get inside, outside is too dangerous for us." We all go inside and without another word, Xavier grabs my upper arm and tugs me away from everyone. We jog up the stairs and into his bedroom. He slams the door shut and I look around his room. It's a little messy like a usual boy room and his desk is crowded with papers. His bed is nicely folded and made, the pillows big and fluffed. He grabs my wrist and pulls me towards the bed, we both sit on it... across from each other.

"What are we doing?" I ask him a bit confused as he runs his hand through his long hair.

"I don't know... I just want you with me." I stare at him a bit confused and what he says startled me. "Kiss me."

"What?!" I say, moving my head back a little.

"Kiss me, please."

"No."

"Kiss me!" He becomes aggravated and I just stare at him. I was about to argue with him but he grabs the back of my head, his fingers tangling in my hair and pushes my head towards him. My lips smash against his forcefully while my eyes widen and his are closed. I don't kiss back but he does, his body leaning closer to mine. I can't pull away because his hand trails down to the back of my neck and stays there. He presses his lips harder against mine and I finally pull away from him.

"What are you doing?" His eyes are still closed as he leans closer to my face again. A vampire just kissed me. Fuck it, Xavier Dagger just kissed me.

"Kissing you." He breaths, his lips connecting with mine again. I pull away again, leaning back, my arms behind me for support.

"No, we shouldn't do this, the-the deal. Remember?" I say, my heart racing.

"Fuck the deal, let me just kiss you." Xavier whispers, kissing me again but I accept it. I don't know why but I follow the motion of his mouth along mine. My breathing is uneven, I feel like I'm going to pass out. I like it, kissing him. Passion is running along my body, my bones ready to collapse. I break the kiss again while his teeth grab a hold of my bottom lip and he tugs. He let goes of it and opens his eyes, his crystal ones staring into my brown ones. Suddenly, a smile runs along his mouth and he pounces on me, his body falling on mine.

I fall backwards, my back on the bed while his hands are holding my cheeks and mine tangling in his hair. I tug on it tight as he lets out a groan while I shake beneath him. He tries to bring his tongue in my mouth but I deny. He grabs the bottom of my shirt and pulls it over my head. It's suddenly off of me and I'm in my black bra. His hands run down my stomach and resting on my waist. He pulls away from me and I stare at him while in one swift move, he takes his shirt off too.

Xavier tosses it on the floor and he looks down at me with a smirk on his face. I look down at his body and I run my fingers along his abs. He chuckles before smashing his lips against mine again and finally surprising me with his tongue. He explores my mouth while I let out a soft moan, my hands running down his bare back. His lower half is grinding against mine and dear god I feel a bulge in his pants hitting my thigh. I try not to think what I know it is in my head because it's saying what I'm doing is a sinful thing. One of his hands leave my waist and I hear something jingle. Our lips breath apart and he brings his down to my neck, sucking and leaving wet kisses down my neck to my throat.

I snap my eyes open and they widen when I see that his hand is unbuckling his jean belt. It feels so good when he is kissing me down to my collarbone and biting it than kissing me down to my shoulder and back. Then he unbuttons his jean and that's when it snaps in my head. I think we are going to have sex. I put my hands on his shoulders and I push him off. I quickly slip out from beneath him and I get up, forgetting that I'm in a bra. I find my shirt next to his on the floor and I slip it over my head.

He gets off the bed and his jeans are sagging low that I can see his V-line and the top of his boxers. He's staring at me shocked for a bit then he realizes that his jeans are slowly going to fall off. He pulls them up, buttoning and putting his belt back on. He runs his hair back and puts his shirt back on.

"Why did you stop?" He asks me while we stood there staring at each other awkwardly. Was I really going to have sex with him?

"Why did you keep on going?" I question him and a smile appears on his face.

"Touché." I look down at my feet while biting my lip.

"I-"

"Diana, kissing you was... amazing." I look up at him and a smile is still on his lips. "I think I love you."
