Done With

DIANA'S POV

Just when I thought I could finally have a good night's sleep, a loud, heart-wrenching howl came, followed by a sudden power outage.  

I was startled as this was the first time I was hearing an actual howl and witnessing a power outage but the only person that came to mind was Louis. 

I began to feel very uncomfortable and no matter how I tried to stop myself from thinking about him, it just proved impossible. 

I became more restless by the passing minute as the urge to see him increased. 

Even though he always says hurtful things to me, I still cared a great deal about him.

In the end, my subconsciousness won over me and I took to my heels again, making my way out of my chambers and down to his. 

The guards outside my chamber were quite startled by the howl and they tried to restrict my movement but I was just too adamant about checking up on him so I ordered them out of my way and hurried off to his room. 

His room was dark as expected since there was a power outage and to make matters worse, I didn't come with my phone or any source of light. 

With the little familiarity I had with his room, I walked into his bedroom and as soon as I entered, I began to hear some painful whimpers and panting coming from the room and I knew it was Louis. 

As I drew nearer to where he had clutched himself up on the ground, his whimpers began to fade off. 

Even though I couldn't tell what might have happened to him, dull aches filled my heart and my eyes welled up in tears. 

I know I'm the sympathetic type but this was way beyond mere sympathy. It was as if I could feel his pain as if I knew and witnessed the cause of every bit of his pain. I bent slowly to his height and sat in front of him then I pushed my hand gently around his floating hair. 

"You'll be fine!" I whispered to his ear. I didn't expect my words to have any effect on him but they unexpectedly did. 

His whimpers totally faded away and his breath suddenly began to normalize. 

It took him a few more seconds of resting before he raised his head and our gaze met. 

His eyes were burning red again. I was suddenly captivated by them. It was as if something else resides in those eyes of his that keeps inviting me in anytime our eyes meet. 

I was so lost in his eyes when the lights suddenly came on and immediately, his red eyes disappeared with the darkness. 

It was really confusing and surprising for me but what mattered at the moment was Louis' condition. 

I composed myself and quickly grabbed his arm and helped him up to his feet before supporting him to sit up on the bed all the while he stared at me like a jungle boy who was seeing another human for the first time in his life. 

What could have happened to him? Did he got frightened by the howl? Or maybe was he the one that actually howled? That didn't sound anything like human at all. 

I quickly went to the small fridge in his room and served him cold water after which I helped him lay on the bed, covered him up with his blanket, and attempted to leave the room when his firm and rough hand finally grabbed my thin and slender one. 

I looked back and saw him sitting up instead of lying down. His gaze didn't change at all. It was as if this was his first time seeing me. 

"Don't leave." He finally spoke up, his statement, taking me by surprise.

This man fucked me terribly and said all the most mean words to me but he wants me by his side all of a sudden? 

'Maybe I didn't hear him well.' I thought to myself.

"You heard me well, Diana. Don't think about other nights, just think about tonight." He said before pulling me to his lap and placing his lips on mine. 

His lips only smooched mine as he licked them because I refused to give in to his demands. I didn't want to respond to the kisses at first because my mind went back to those nights and days he made a living hell for me. What if he abandoned me after tonight as well. 

I always dreamt of making love not having sex but I might slowly be turning into a sex object for this man.

He noticed my resistance but he didn't stop for a second. He continued to press his lips on mine until I finally gave in to his demands. 

That was it. He always has a way of making it impossible to say NO. 

For a brief moment, he paused and stopped kissing me. He pulled me away from him and with his hands holding tightly to my shoulders, stared into my eyes for several seconds, and all of a sudden, he hugged me tightly again, and with his eyes shut, he laid me on the bed and sniffed every part of my body like his life depended on it. 

After he got a good sniff, he began to take off my nightwear. I couldn't object because I wanted this more than him. I only pray he doesn't chase me away in the morning again, if not I might really lose my mind. 

The rest of the night was like the others. Louis wasn't gentle at all but I wasn't in pain or maybe, I was already getting used to the pain because of the little pleasure that comes with it. 

Tonight, not only were my moans audible, but his grunts were also audible too but what baffled me was his kind of grunt. It was more animalistic than human and most suspiciously, his red eyes came again...

Morning came faster than I expected and even though I was rid of sleep long before he was up, I remained in his bed for fear of hearing his harsh torments again. 

While I was still pretending to sleep, Louis stood up from the bed stack naked and went towards his wardrobe to get a towel for himself. 

He covered his nudity with the towel and prepared a hot coffee for himself which he sat on the bed to sip. 

Once he was done with the coffee, he smashed the coffee cup on the small table beside his bed, scattering it into smaller pieces with little or no concern about him disturbing my sleep or not. 

He stood up from the bed and walked towards the bathroom and just when I thought I could stop hiding under the blanket and pretending to be asleep, he turned around and our eyes met. 

"Make sure you're out of this room before I finish my bath." He affirmed, his voice devoid of emotions before finally entering the bedroom. 

Even though I had expected this, his words hit my chest like a volcano. I must have had my hopes high for a moment which is why it still hurts even when I thought I was well prepared for it. 

I'm tired of having to live in this torture called unrequited love. I just need to make my heart get that straight and stop it once and for all. I know it's going to be very hard if not impossible, but I will definitely give it a try starting today.
