Snippet #1897441

His cold unbeating heart sank in his chest as she tensed under his grip. Aaron hadn't meant to frighten her or push her away. On top of all the frustration, something angered within him. Going from a world class killer to a...softie! How was this ever possible. The great Aaron Blackmoore, trailing after a human girl as if she was something special. He frowned for a moment and tried to regain his focus.
Idiot! That's exactly what she is. Special. You've gotten yourself into a mess of trouble here. his mind told him, and he nochalantly smiled for a second and then shifted his eyes back to the beautiful young girl in front of him. She was the kind of person he'd been hunting all his life. The young women, so eager to know him and share his bed, only to their own demise.

To his own relief, her fright seemed to fade and was replaced with interest yet again. He smiled when she remarked that she was serious about the swim, and the frivolic nature of him didn't mind taking a swim. But when she turned around and spoke again, it seemed as though she'd lost the urge, saying how it was getting late when only moments before she seemed to be willing to stay up all night. She doubted what he had told her.
"Come to think of it," Aaron started and regained his former composure. "It does sound a bit..." he shrugged. "Much." He tilted his head again and looked her straight in the eyes. A sign of truth. "I suppose that I've been used to having my will a little too much. A bad habit that I am indeed working on. I can give you everything I just said, and for no price." Aaron was silent for a moment. Except for one little price, right? his brain was still contemplating the thought of either changing her, or not. Either way she was probably going to find out about his nature at some point. "I understand your situation Emma, and I didn't mean to offend you or frighten you. I've been..." he searched for the right word. "Isolated." But what he'd been isolated from was the feelings she brought back to him, and the frown that appeared when he thought of that. feelings.
