My Way To You 116 Can It Really? Part 3

Ariana brought her gaze to meet his. She saw his eyes glaze over, his cheeks were slightly flushed and his mouth was partially open. "Cayden... I feel the same way... maybe even more. I just wanted to understand what you went through and why you did what you did. I know I'm being selfish but I can't help.... I can't stop... I feel so jealous. I just wanted to know where I stood in your heart and when you kissed me saying you would tell me everything. I had hoped... there was so much hope that you would... Cayden I love you and I don't think I can stop loving you anytime soon." She said as tears rolled down her cheeks.

Cayden couldn't stop himself. He closed the distance between them. He brushed back her tears with his thumbs. He looked into her eyes and gulped, he then brought his lips to her forehead, then to her temple, her cheek and then licked his own lips. Her eyes sparkled with anticipation causing his heart to thunder against his chest. He couldn't fight the urge anymore, he started to lean in, inching towards her lips. "Don't hate me." He whispered. "I can't." She replied and he sealed her lips. His one hand slid behind her head while the other slid down her back and stopped in the middle of her back. "Don't hate me. Don't hate me." He said in between his kisses. "Never." Ariana moaned. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

The kissed started to intensify, Cayden tasted her lips with his tongue. She opened her mouth and invited him in. Cayden moaned as his fingers entangled with her hair. "Don't you ever think you are good enough to be with her." A voice shouted in Cayden head. "Ahh!" Cayden shouted as he pushed back Ariana. "Cayden?!" Ariana gasped as she watched him take a step back. "Sorry, I'm so sorry... I just... I made an oath and I need to sort these 'things' out before.... before I can tell you or do anything." Ariana's face paled as she reached out to Cayden. "Does it hurt?" She asked and Cayden shook his head. "No... it's more psychological." He said as his breathing started to became uneven.

"I'm not supposed to get to close to you... huff, huff, huff... I was only supposed to watch and protect you.... huff, huff, huff... anything else is forbidden." He said as he tried to compose himself. "But Adonis should have taken care of that. The slave contract should be invalid now, I'm so confused... how can this be fixed? How can I set you free?" Ariana asked but Cayden gave her a wary smile. "Like I said I need to settle some things before we can talk." He said as he straightened up his posture and pulled Ariana closer. "For now just trust me... No matter what happens, just trust me and don't leave me." He said before he placed a sweet kiss on her forehead.

Porridge slipped off Ariana's spoon again and landed into her bowl as she grinned like a fool. Her mind kept wondering off to the events that had conspired that morning. If it wasn't for her Lumas she had no idea how far Cayden would have taken her. On that thought Ariana started to blush again. "Ariana, we will leave you if you do not finish soon." Edlyn said as she poked her friend's side. Ariana jumped and came back to her senses. "Right, sorry... I'll be good." She mumbled and started to spoon mouthfuls of porridge into her mouth.

She really didn't like the taste. It was like eating wet cardboard and made a mental note to visit the mess hall ladies to review their recipes. "Nope! I'm done. I can't eat this anymore." Halina said as she pushed away her bowl. "Honestly Halina, it is not that awful." Talisha said as she elegantly brought up her spoon to her mouth. The girls watched as her face turned a dark shade of green but she was able to keep her smile in place. "I think we should head to class." Edlyn said as she got up. "Seriously starving is a better option then eating this!" Halina said as she pointed to her bowl. 'Halina! Pointing is incredibly rude. Please use your words to properly describe your situation.'

Halina rolled her eyes and shoved a spoonful of porridge into Ophelia's beak. "Eat it and then tell me to be lady like after trying 'this' thing they call food." Halina said then got up and started to walk away. Ophelia flapped around in circles trying to swallow what Halina force fed her. "Time to go." Ariana said with a broad smile and took her tray to the cleaning station. "Halina! Don't forget to clean up!" She yelled and Halina quickly turned around and back tracked to the table. Ophelia was in tears, fanning her face as she tried swallow the remaining porridge. "You know you can spit it out." Halina said in a bored tone.

Ophelia swallowed back the porridge and gave Halina a hard, tearful stare. 'I am not that uncivilized!' She honked. "We have a full day of classes today so we must get going if we want to have our pick in seating." Talisha said as placed a handkerchief over top of her bowl and got up from her seat. "Yes..." Edlyn agreed and the girls cleaned up before they headed out the door.

"So this morning?" Edlyn said with a slightly wicked smile. Ariana blushed a deep red as she covered her cheeks with her hands. "This morning?" Halina and Talisha asked in unison. "Yes this morning." Edlyn said playfully. "I was left be-hind and she comes back spark-ling." Edlyn laughed as she nodded her head towards Ariana. "I have been dying to tell you but I can't! Not yet, just know that I am super happy." Ariana said cheerfully. "Really? Not a single word?" Edlyn said as she raised a teasing eyebrow. "Look, I did some yoga with Mrs. Dabney, stopped by the bathhouse and went back to the room."
