《Her House, My Rules》Chapter 73
Advertisement
The sun invited my eyes to a bright morning. My head was spinning like crazy. My dry throat was begging the Sahara desert to stop spreading its sand through my larynx. Headaches! Backaches! Sweats all over my body. As I looked around, I noticed that the bedroom was upside down. Sheets all over the floor, the little table that was near the bed was situated under the bed and it was accompanied by blood.
Let me guess. Hazel's blood.
I can still vaguely recall biting Hazel's foot. That was the last thing I remember.
Maybe I overexaggerated a bit, maybe I did a lot of bad things last night. I hope Hazel is still alive because I won't be able to survive a day without her by my side.
Jack Walter? Where are you? Are you still alive somewhere?
'Hazel! Jack! Hazel! Jack! ' I shouted in the room and no one answered. The silence broke me. Maybe I killed both of them. Maybe they ran away last night. But how would that be possible if I'm still fighting these heavy chains around me? I wanted to break them by using my power. After all, I was a powerful but little did I know, my body was healing slowly.
Yes, that's right.
I couldn't break them. I felt weak. I could barely move and I wanted water.
With a sudden knock, Hazel and Jack entered the room. I jumped and screamed at the top of my lungs. "Jack! You're alive!" A faded smile played on his face as he tried to help Hazel. Her dear foot was fighting for a miracle. "Hazel, my love, are you okay?" I asked, worriedly. Obviously, she wasn't okay but I needed her to be on my side. I needed to hear her sweet voice in my devil ears. "Jack? Please say something... Are you okay? Is she alright?"
Jack placed two pillows under her knees to help her manage her pain. "I'm glad you're awake, Hawk." His tone hit differently. What happened to the connection we had, Jack Walter? Why are you talking to me as if I was a stranger? What happened last night?
"Is she going to be..."
"No, Hawk." Jack interrupted before I could finish my full sentence. "No, she's not going to be fine." He took a deep breath and continued. "Now please, leave her alone."
"Whoah! Whoah!" I chuckled, sarcastically. "What's the matter with you, Mister? What's with the attitude?" Jack was acting really strange and I didn't know what to do to gain my brother back. "Did I do something to you?"
"We're good..." He answered, dryly.
"Obviously, we're not," I crushed his ego. "What the hell is your problem?"
"You don't remember much... Do you?" He raised his voice, this time, louder. "You almost killed me last night, Hawk." He revealed. "You choked me. If it wasn't for Hazel, God only knows what I'd do?" I could taste the pain under his breath. He wasn't really happy about that.
"I don't remember anything." I pleaded. "I'm sorry if I tried to kill you." I apologized but his anger was playing a big part in his mind. "Jack? I know you..."
"Too bad, I can't say the same about you..." His words were like missiles. "I don't even know who you are anymore. Look at her." He pointed at Hazel's foot. "Only a demon would do such a thing..."
"That's how you see me now?" My heart was bombed, beats after beats. "A demon?"

"Hazel..." Jack ignored me, completely. "I'm going to prepare you something. I'll be back."
"Can you unchain me at least?" I asked, ignoring the fact that he was already pissed at me. "Please, Jack. I can't feel my legs."
"That's your problem!" Jack responded before leaving the bedroom. "Not mine!"
Maybe I was a demon. Maybe Jack was right. Maybe I was the worst person on the entire planet. The dark bones inside of me purified the melancholy of imperfect veins inside of me. I lost my brother for good. My future wife hated me and the tenebrosity of my actions defined the absence of my freedom in their eyes.
"How are you feeling? Babe..." I glanced at Hazel. "I'm sorry... I truly am..." I was found guilty in Hazel's courtroom. Her mind condemned me and Jack Walter was a witness. "Please... Forgive me..."
Hazel rolled her eyes and ignored the hell out of me.
Holy Heaven! What is happening right now?
Help!
"How's your foot?" I insisted. "Does it hurt a lot? I promise you, I'm going to heal it. I just need water and a little energy to get back on my feet." She scratched the back of her neck as she flipped her hair to the other side of the pillow. "I got you..." I assured her. "Just trust me..."
Silent treatment from the love of my life.
What a great way to start my beautiful morning.
Fuck me!
Hazel was reading a book, that was her excuse. As I examined her body language closely, I realized that she was just pretending to flip the pages as if she was so into it. Just to ignore me. "I know you're not reading that damn book!" I yelled. "Why don't you just put it down and talk to me?" She placed it next to her, one dark brow lifted in silent query.
"Aren't you tired of talking?" She replied, inquisitively. "Do me a favor and leave me the fuck alone!" As soon as her words manifested its power inside my ears, a sudden pain crushed her head with a physical threat.
Ow! Ow! Ow! Fuck! She yelped.
"What's wrong?" I asked, clueless. "Talk to me... Are you okay?"
"Apparently, thanks to you." She said, sarcastically. "You bit me and according to yourworld, I can't let my anger speak for me."
"What does that mean?"
"It means that I have to stay calm and control my temper." She reproached. "Jack told me to ignore you and he was right. I need to save myself from you." There was a quick pause on her end. "I feel detached... I'm worried about the future, I just want my life back."
"Is that how you truly feel about me?" An air of melancholy surrounded me. "Hazel, I didn't choose this life. I didn't want to have powers, I just wanted a normal life. I still do..." I tried to get closer to the bed. "Hazel... Baby, look at me..." She placed her hair in a bun as I watched her fingers dropped on her phone screen. "Are you really going to give up on me?"
Her face went pale. A sip of pain showered her voice, hopelessly. "You did..." She rolled her eyes. "So why can't I?"
"I chose to stay behind just for you." My voice was wet with tears. "I believed in you, in . I chose to stay because I love--"

"No, Uh uh! " She cut me off, completely. "You- chose- to- stay- because- Jack- didn't - want- to- leave." She broke down her words as I tried to connect her pain with her body language. She was still in love with me but I just didn't know how to erase the demon blood within me.
"Is that what you think?" I questioned her opinion. "I'm not going to argue with you because it's not worth it but keep creating these bad scenarios inside your head." I moved back to my original location. "You'll never believe me anyway."
"I'm always the bad guy. Right?" She exposed her true intentions. "I never meant for us to fall apart, I wanted to build a family with you, I wanted to forget about everything and move on." A flood of tears gushed down her sensitive cheeks as she whispered under her breath, miserably. "I wanted you, Hawk... I fell in love and now I don't know what I'm feeling anymore." She paused. "I still want to believe that you're the love of my life but... Every time, I look at you, I see the demon that bit me and the one that tried to kill his own brother. I don't even know who you are anymore. I fell in love but I never thought that It was going to fade away that quickly."
"Hazel..." My jaw clenched, unable to express the pain that was ravaging my heart. "Please... Stop talking..." I begged her. "You're hurting me..."
"You just don't want to hear the truth." She continued but this time, harder. "Jack is your brother for God's sake and I'm your goddamn Fiancé." She yelled, angrily. "Look at my foot." She gestured. "Just look at it."
I did.
It did look terrible but deep down, I didn't know what to say to convince her.
"I'm sorry..." I apologized, sincerely. "I am truly sorry..."
"Just leave me alone..."
"Do you think it's healthy to argue with a man every single day?" I tried to criticize her actions. "I want peace in my life and clearly, you're giving me the complete opposite. I'm already going through a lot and the last thing I want is for you to keep trying me as if I don't have feelings."
"You're selfish!" She smacked her lips, sarcastically. "You want peace? Fine. I'll just leave this stupid house."
"I understand that you're mad at me right now, Love..." I took a deep breath. "But I can assure you that I'm going to do what I can to heal you. I won't let you die. I promised you that I was going to take care of you and protect you no matter what. That's what I'm willing to do to gain your trust back."
Telling Hazel how I felt at that moment was the worst mistake ever. She didn't care about my feelings. She just wanted everything to come to an end. I didn't blame her. She had every right to hate me and to stay away from me but I just didn't know how to fix myself. I didn't know how to be the man that she wanted me to be. I didn't know how to be the perfect Fiancé.
Forgive me.
I didn't know how to erase the past and be born again.
Forgive me.
I didn't know how to fight the within me.
Forgive me.
I also didn't know that it was impossible to stop loving you, Hazel.
Forgive me.
Take my heart and bring it to hell but the fire will never be torrid enough to turn down the conflagration of my love for you.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" She took a sip of her lemonade as she placed it in the tray beside her. "Don't give me that look."
"What look?"
"The look on your face right now." She confirmed. "You only give me that look when you're craving me badly and when we're making love."
"I can't look at you now?" I asked, gently. "What's the problem?"
"It's the way you're looking at me." She assured. "You need to stop."
"Let's just say that's the case and I want to make love to you right now. " An example was on the edge of my words. "How the hell is this going to be possible if I can't rip your underwear off from two feet away?" I bit my bottom lip as I tried to concentrate. "If you want it, ask for it. Don't come with your lies, talking about my look when it's not even the case." I chuckled, nervously.
"Why would I even want to have sex with you when you bit me?"
"Because you can't get enough..." She smiled, Amusingly. "Let's be real, the only reason we're not making love right now is that you're scared that I might do something crazy." I squeezed my teeth as I licked my lips, slowly. "Maybe bite you again... But fear not Darling..." I anticipated the worst. "I'm pretty sure these heavy chains are not going to allow me to get a taste of your skin." I tried to play with her mind. "Unless... You do something about it."
"I'm not going to liberate you." She fought with her intentions. "You're trying to manipulate me and I'm not falling for this again."
"Don't you want to find out?" I questioned, seductively. "I know you want me, I can see it in your eyes. Why can't you just admit it?"
"I don't..." The lie made her uncomfortable. "Now please, stop."
"Come say it to my face..." I challenged her. "Maybe then... I'll believe you."
"What are you trying to do?"
"I'm trying to read your mind." I moved up as I tried to free myself from the selfish chains. "I just want you to forgive me ... " I whispered under my breath. "Lock the door, get rid of the chains and I'll heal you. I promise."
She was thinking about it. She didn't even decline my request. "What if you hurt me again?"
"Your voice sobered me up," I spoke the truth. "Please... My throat is dry. I just need water right now."
"I'll ask Jack."
"No!" I rejected, rapidly. "He's not going to give me anything. He hates me and right now, you're the only person who can save me from my pain right now. I just need water." To be real, I knew that Jack didn't hate me but I just wanted to be free. I was Hazel's weakness. I knew the right words to manipulate her.
"Fine..." She finally agreed as she limped to the door slowly and locked it. "Done."
"Now, the key."
"I know what you're trying to do." She sat on the edge of the bed, facing me. "You just want to get away."
"That's not true..." I replied, softly. "Just let me go... Please..."
I wanted to tell her to stop listening to me but I just wanted my freedom. I didn't care about the consequences. Maybe I was going to hurt her but it didn't matter. Hazel was already liberating me. It was too late.
I was already a free man.
"Your eyes..." I felt the fire once again, burning my skin. "Hawk? Your eyes are glowing!" She took three steps back as she fell on the bed, cluelessly. "Pl--Pl--Please don't hurt me..." She stammered.
"Relax..." I grabbed her by the waist as I spattered her in the middle of the bed, slowly. "Shh..." I placed both of her hands over the headboard and leaned closer to her lips. "I just want to make love to you... Relax..."
"I'm hurt..." She reminded me of her damaged foot. "How the hell are you going to do that?" The hyper of her respiration revealed how badly she was craving my penis inside her.
"Don't you trust me?" I bit her bottom lip as my words marked the sexual whispers under my breath. "I got you..." My heart was calculating the weighty beats under my skin. Damn! Was I craving her lips? You have no idea. "Your lips are so fucking sexy..." I let go of her hands as my fingers traversed under her shirt to sabotage her cold pointy nipples.
"Kiss me... already..." She wrapped her hands around my neck. "Please..." As soon as her words crashed into my ears, my lips enveloped hers, trapped, in a felony of desperate needs.
Hazel was definitely into it more than I was.
Like Goddamn. Slow down... Woman...
"Fuck..." I broke off the kiss as I choked her neck with my right hand, savagely. "You're driving me insane..."
"Shut up and fuck me..." I ripped her shirt off, her shorts, and her red bra. Leaving her only with underwear.
Unspoken words.
Silence.
I found myself, diving into a beautiful paradise of pleasure.
Our lips were locked, unable to let go of each other's lips.
We both were craving this special moment.
"Now... Underwear..." My eyes glowed yellow as I felt this fire upon my skin. I didn't know what to do next. I wanted to stop but at the same time, something was pulling me back.
Should I stop or?
Should I enjoy the moment?
I kept asking the same question over and over in my head. I didn't want to bite Hazel's neck because I was that close of losing my whole mind and let Love takes over...
