"You find me adorable?" With a delicate touch, he slightly turned her so she would meet his magnetic gaze.

"Uhh hu! You doubt that?"

"I never doubt you but it’s only you who has ever said I am adorable. Women usually use words like sexy, dashing, irresistible and handsome for me," his hands cupped her face.

"I am not most women, I am Aselia," with an act of nonchalance she shrugged her shoulders at him, making him seductively grin at her.

"Yes, you are one and only, my Leia."

"And your Leia is hungry, make me a big breakfast. I am dying to eat your food," she knocked on his forehead and he gasped.

Xiran had forgotten the rest of the world, the act of eating and the mere existence of everything else.

"Damnit, have I been starving you on the very first day of your arrival," he lamented, getting up with her in his arms.

"No, no, I just started feeling hungry."

"Can you give me five minutes? I will take a quick shower and join you. Wait for me outside, Irlana will be up, she will keep you company," he set her down near the door and she nodded at him. He pulled her in for one last hug and breathed out into her ear.

"Or you can join me in the bathroom and..." Aselia placed her slender finger on his cupid-shaped lips.

"We both know where that will go, we won’t be leaving it any time soon. So go take a shower and I will wait outside," she suppressed a smile that was trying to sneak in and he let out a disappointed sigh. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Ok," he said dejectedly and walked away towards the bathroom. Aselia looked for a charger and found it in one of the ports and plugged her phone in. She then walked out of the room to find Irlana and to get some water to drink.

The house was eerily quiet and all the memories of their time spent here rushed back to her and she couldn’t help but stupidly grin. The living room, the fireplace, the rug, the sofa, the kitchen, everything held precious memories they had made and she knew this was where she wanted to stay.

Heading to the kitchen she made her way to the fridge and found a post-it note on it. It was from Irlana which said:

{ Hey guys, I wasn’t sure when you people will wake up and I had to leave, Rivan needs me at the office. I have placed some food in the fridge, heat it up. Call me if you need me, otherwise, I will be staying at Rivan today. Love you <3 }

Irlana’s loving nature left an indelible mark on Aselia. Even now, Aselia vividly recalled the radiant joy that had washed over Irlana’s face when she had arrived the other day.

"Aseliaaa, I am so glad you are here. Brother Xiran will be ecstatic. Does he know of your arrival?" She shrieked while hugging her and guiding her inside.

"Good to see you again Irlana and no he doesn’t, I wanted to surprise him," Aselia had answered and Irlana steered her to Xiran’s room.

Now, reading her note made Aselia recall that. She let it remain on the fridge and opened the fridge door to get a water bottle. Just as Irlana had stated in the note, the fridge contained numerous glass bowls with food inside. They had neatly placed labels on them.

Aselia poured herself a cold glass of water and gulped it down, before placing the bottle back inside.

She knew she should microwave the food Irlana had left for them but she wanted to eat the food he would cook for her, so she heavily sighed not wanting to come off as a bitch and hurt the feelings of Xiran and Irlana.

His door opened and Xiran emerged all freshened up in a plain red t-shirt and sweatpants. He had dried and tied up his hair so he could easily cook.

"Hey!" Her face brightened up seeing him.

"Hey! Where is Irlana?" he inquired, scanning his surroundings and Aselia pointed to the note on the refrigerator as she leaned against the kitchen counter. Xiran approached it and took it off before reading it thoroughly.

"She is giving us alone time, smart Irlana," he smirked and faced Aselia.

"So I don’t want to sound like an ass but would it be wrong if I say I want to eat something you will make for me?" His smirk changed to subtle astonishment and then a bright smile as he approached and jailed her between his arms, pressing her body against the counter.

"Not at all. I will make whatever you want to eat, the rest of the food we can have for lunch or dinner. Tell me what you are craving?" Aselia gazed into his misty eyes and wanted to say ’you’ but refrained. Knowing far too well where the answer will lead them. Instead, she answered:

"Pancakes with whipped cream and fruits."

"You got it, but first I would like a kiss. More kisses mean more pancakes for you, longer kisses mean tastier pancakes," he tilted his head at her, observing the edges of her pointed ears going crimson.

"You remember earlier when I said you are an adorable vamp? I take it back, you are a greedy vamp," Aselia’s answer widened his mischievous grin and he picked her up and placed her on the kitchen counter, opening her legs wide he stood between them and said:

"How about greedy and adorable at the same time?"

Aselia’s face heated up at his actions but she hooked her arms around his neck and pulled him close, her soft lips covering his needy ones, the gentle kiss soon turned into a ferocious one for neither of them could keep their hands off the other.

Xiran pulled up her dress and grazed the inner part of her thighs, his fingers digging deep as their tongues danced to the rhythm of their own making.

Xiran hoisted her up and Aselia wrapped her legs around his slim waist, not wanting to let go. Their lips finally parted and she gasped for breath.

"At this rate, we will never eat," she protested and Xiran closed his eyes, placing his forehead on hers.

"We have been apart too long, I don’t want to let you go. How many days are you planning to stay," he sighed deeply almost sadly. Aselia wanted to prolong his torture, this was her revenge on him so she simply said:

"Just a few days. Make me that breakfast now."
