UNDER HIS ENCHANTMENT - SEASON 4 EPISODE 74

Somehow, it was very unsettling for her to see this strong and capable man reduced to this state. During the battles, he had suffered so many injuries, and many were even fatal. Zanya had seen for herself that this man had suffered those injuries mostly because of him jumping directly into the fray without regard to his own safety. And all of it was done just to save anyone who was in need of help.

His actions had surprised her many times that she wondered why he seemed to not think of his own safety at all as long as he was able to save the ones in need. She had thought that he was just all protective of the queen and his comrades, and for her as well. She had considered and thought it through and had come to the conclusion that it must be because somehow, she had been with them for quite while too. But during this battle, she had seen how he was actually more than willing to save anyone as long as they were on his side. He had helped countless light faes he had never once spoken to. It was as if he did not mind dying for them.

These things she saw was probably the reason why Zanya could not seem to leave him alone despite her having a not so good impression of him. And despite the things he had done when she had left her body in his care and even now, with him suddenly attacking her… she still could not make herself ignore him and leave.

“How about I bring you to where they are? I can fly you over really quick –”

Leon shook his head heavily as he panted out. “Can’t… the sun…”

Zanya slapped her forehead. How did she forget about the sun? She knew vampires can thrive just fine under the sun but if they are already in their weakest state, it could harm them – perhaps even kill them.

As Zanya tried to quickly think of another way they could overcome this, she was suddenly grabbed. She found herself sitting on his lap in an instant, straddling him as his arms were curled around her back and shoulders. Her eyes were wide. How did he still have such strength and speed?

She had let her guard down at the sight of his weakened state and now she was caught again! This man! He is dangerous!

“W-wait! You…” she tried to pull away, careful not to use her magic for fear that she might accidentally worsen his condition.

He sniffed at her. His nose trailing down her throat.

Zanya hastily caught his face and made him look at her.

His red eyes were so vivid with thirst and hunger, and when he looked back at her and Zanya actually felt shivers running across her spine. She suddenly stiffened and the words she was about to say was lost. What was going on?

Something in his eyes that now looked like hellfire made her heartbeat picked up a notch and she could not look away. It shocked her very much. When was the last time someone made her heart react like this?

Zanya yelled at herself. She must be going crazy to actually feel like this before the man who obviously wanted to suck her blood! But why is his gaze this hypnotic? Do hungry vampires usually looked like this when they were dying for blood?

She remembered that hungry vampires always, always looked terrifying. But this man… instead of scaring her away, he looked more like he was seducing her. She was utterly shocked at the sensuality he exuded, and it was crazy how she found him incredibly gorgeous and irresistible right now.

“Let me…” his voice was hoarse and deep, “Zanya…”

She swallowed hard. Her name that resonated in her ears echoed over and over again like a hypnotic magic spell. This was bad! Very bad! She would never have thought that this vampire could make her feel this way. This was just… this was abnormal. How could he make her feel as though she was now under his control? No!

“No!” she finally snapped out of her confused state and was able to speak. “You can’t do this! Listen. You must let me go now.”

He shook his head, refusing to loosen his grip on her.

“If you bite me, you’ll regret it, Leon! Believe me!”

“I won’t…”

“Yes, you will! There’s… there’s a consequence if you bite a light fae.”

“I don’t care –”

“You will regret it! Let me go now before I hurt you.”

“I… can’t anymore…” his words came out as a strangled cry between his gasps. His hand slowly pulling on her again and she told herself to resist. To look away from those hypnotic fiery eyes. Because at this rate, he was going to tear her willpower away and make her offer herself to him.

Zanya had regretted dropping her guard down over him. This man was no ordinary vampire. Why did she think that this man was not capable of seducing a woman even to her own destruction when he was clearly one of those kinds who had such a strange power to make a woman beg and do anything he wanted her to do?

She did not know when it even happened but when he gently pulled her hair back to arch her beautiful neck and have it exposed for an easy access to it, Zanya already felt like her bones had melted within her. Her heartbeat thudded like gongs in her chest, sending vibrations up to her stunned brain. No! She must stop him! She must not let him bite her!

Lifting her hand, she tried to summon her magic, hoping that it will wake her up from this strange frenzy she fell into. It was better for her to hurt him slightly than letting him bite her and draw blood. But her hands were limp and useless beside her. What… what the hell did he do to her?

His grip on her then tightened and again, she felt his cold mouth latch onto her neck.
