Chapter 6: Chapter 5
Each time she walked into Worldwide Galleries to buy new paintings, she was always overwhelmed with a sense of familiarity. Like she was destined to paint, but each time she held a canvas the dreams came. Now she wanted those dreams, every one of them so she could put them all in print.. all her dreams.
Gheorghe studied her eyes, noticing the determined glint in them. He turned to the customers
admiring different paintings, Elizabeth's presence here had always brought disaster. She would look so stricken, so petrified, making other people curious and some frightened.
Surprisingly today, she touched the antiques and paintings boldly, her countenance stable. He walked to her,embracing her he muttered
"Draga mea, it's been so long " This time she smiled, her eyes revealing her fondness of him. He
was her dearest friend.
"How is your Gothic book going? "
She shrugged "Good, I'm putting those dreams into writing this time "
Gheorghe held her as they walked through the hall.
"Do you still feel like you're Mia "he inquired softly.
Remembering last night, she nodded. "It feels like I'm meant to have
those dreams ". Leading her to an attic, he said
"I read your manuscript,this Alessandro became a villain?"
At his question, her eyes misted
"Something happened to turn him into a villain, Gheorghe "tossing her head, she added "I feel sorry for him "No!her heart whispered. You feel conflicting emotions for him.
Gheorghe removed the wrapper off a quilt and a sketch emerged.
"An archeologist retrieved this from an old museum.. here look "he ran his hands over it. It was dated 'January 1501' and on the edge was a faded signature 'MIA '.It was the sketch of a naked man, wondrously drewn and to Elizabeth, the gorgeous man looked familiar.Dusting the painting,he whispered mesmerized "Mia drew this! Your dreams are fucking real Liza! then this male must be Aless... "
He turned just in time to see the petrified look in her eyes, like one who spied a ghost.
The smell of dust and age faded away and the sound of running water overwhelmed her.
The smell of desert clogged her nostrils, the sound of running water was pleasant. Inhaling deeply, Mia bent over the canvas, a charcoal in her hand.
Alessandro watched her from
where he lay, her beautiful hair covering her like a thick cloak.
"You don't have to paint for anyone, draga, paint only for me "
Her head rose quickly and a smile lit her face "Selfish! "she snapped as he continued working. He groaned, Mia was just too mule headed. He had used every charming words to get Mia leave her blasted canvas and join him in his chambers.... In his bed.
He tried again, with a lazy drawl
"The beauty of this plain is nothing compared to your heartbeat against mine "His words immediately brought images to his mind.she was sprawled under him, every limb joined together... their bodies immersed until it was hard to tell whose body was whose...
Hands akimbo she quipped
"You're the most beautiful thing on the plain, Alessandro "When she lifted her head again he was beside her
"I want you to sketch me...."
Nodding rapidly, she brought out a clean sheet of canvas
"Stay... "her words broke off, when he removed his robe... He was naked and enthralling. She jolted as she always did whenever he disrobed.
Swallowing hard
"I told you.. Not now, you insatiable man! "
He grinned lopsided
"I promise to keep my hands off
you, I'll stay still, sketch me "
He sprawled loosely on his father's throne, like a demi-god. She worked rapidly, looking up, and down back to the canvas.
"You're not staying still! " she cautioned with humorous grin.
Amazed he retorted "By hell, I am"
"Yes, you obviously are, but a part of you, just can't "She said, lowering her gaze to that part on his groin.
He followed her gaze to his excited member,desire darkened his eyes
"You can do something about this situation, Mia "
With a grin she returned to her sketch, after many hazy stokes she threw the charcoal away.
"I can't sketch you, Alessandro... I need to capture your essence.. your perfection..."
"I'm not perfect Mia, you are already my weakness "
Silence fell between them and
exasperated he queried
"Mia, you have to tell me what you're thinking.. I can't read you "
She understood that, she was his mate and it was so unbelievable.
"Why me? I have nothing.." He went down on his knees and draped her arms around his neck "Look at me" he commanded "You own my heart.. Swear to me that it is enough "His heart almost stopped beating when her brow pleated in a frown. Then she smiled and said "Thoroughly "and his whole body began to tremble.
Gheorghe clutched her tightly when she finally moved from her stiffened state.
Hypnotically she whispered quivering "They were so in -love "gripping his hands she entreated
"Why do I have these trances about vampires who must have lived centuries ago? "Then she questioned herself "Why does
seeing Alessandro makes my heart warm? "
