For The Stars Have Sinned

“Rishel…”

I blinked and immediately turned around to face that person. My lips parted in shock. “Levi?” My feet unconsciously backed away. “What are you doing here?” I asked.

He smiled and went around the bench then he stood in front of me. “I’ll take you home.”

I am at a loss for words. Is he really Levi? And he offered to take me home? “Don’t kid around,” I said and laughed a bit. The wind blew between us and silence replied to me. That made me swallow hard.

After a few minutes, he spoke, “I’m not joking, Rish.”

I looked at him again. Even though the light shining on his face was dim, I could see that he was serious. “Why are you so… k-kind?”

My eyes widened when he reached my waist and pulled me closer to him. “I tried to control it for a few days but I couldn’t.”

“What do you mean you can’t?” I asked him breathlessly. Suddenly, he ran his finger over my lower lip, causing my eyes to widen slightly. “Levi…”

I gasped when he lowered his face and pressed his lips to mine. I stiffened even more in shock.

“Rishel,” he breathed. “I miss your lips…” he whispered between kisses.

I blinked and remained standing. I don’t know what to do!

He let me go after a moment. He stared into my eyes for a few seconds before pulling me behind a Gent. There, he feast on my lips while my mind was still processing what’s happening. This is not what I expect from him. How come my idol kissed me like there’s no tomorrow? This must be a dream!

He stopped what he was doing when a hand landed on his shoulder and violently flipped him to the side. I gasped in surprise and looked at Tiden whose eyes were bloodshot due to anger.

“T-Tiden…” I said fearfully.

His sharp eyes focused on me. “I told you to go home immediately. Why didn’t you listen to me, Rishel?”

I gulped in fear. “I’m waiting for a t-taxi.”

“Taxi?” He laughed a little. “Do you think that man is a taxi driver!” he shouted and pointed on Levi.

I jumped in surprise. “No! I —”

He combed his hair with his finger. “Come on.” He took my wrist and pulled me back to the waiting shed. “You’re going home and you’re not going to show up at the concerts —”

He stopped speaking when someone grabbed his hand that was firmly holding my wrist. It was Levi. Tiden grinned and faced Levi. “Rishel is mine. Don’t interfere.”

“You’re hurting her.”

Tiden’s shoulders shook and he laughed like a maniac. “Don’t fool yourself, dude. First of all, you know she’s mine.”

“I’ve tasted her.”

“What do I care? The important thing is, you didn’t get her completely.”

I screamed when Tiden fell to the ground after Levi punched him on his face. I recoiled in shock. Levi cursed. “Don’t touch my girl!”

Tiden’s eyes widened. “She’s mine. You’re stubborn, Levi. When I signed the contract, you knew she was mine. Find yours!”

Levi folded his arms. He smiled. The kind of smile that he showed earlier on stage. “Don’t think that I’m a fool, Tiden Rude. You’ve tried to ignore her. I’m claiming what you’ve spat. She’s mine from now on.”

“Bastard!” Tiden’s eyes were sharp. He got up and was about to attack Levi when June suddenly intervened who suddenly appeared between the two fighting men.

“Stop,” he snapped. “She’s listening.”

Just then, Tiden and Levi looked at me at the same time so I backed away.

“She needs to forget. It’s dangerous if we let her remember,” June said while staring at me.

I drew a breath. “What do you mean?” I had a bad feeling with the way June look at me.

He slowly advanced and I retreated. He took out a small bottle. It contains blood-colored liquid. No, it’s like reddish brown. I swallowed. Will he make me drink that? I looked up at June. I couldn’t see the man I knew before.

All I see are lifeless eyes. It’s like… I don’t know him anymore.

“J-June…” I called.

He smirked. My hair stood up at the smile he showed me. I quickly turned and ran away. I heard his footsteps chasing after me. I bit my lip. What happened to them?

“Ahhh!” Suddenly, someone fell behind me and I fell on the pavement. I turned around quickly. I saw June’s smiling face. “June!”

I saw Tiden and Levi on both sides of June. Both staring at me.

“Do you have to do that?” Tiden asked weakly.

“Yes. So that no one knows,” answered June. “She knows too much. She’ll be damned if she crosses the line. Also, she’s too addicted and that’s enough. She doesn’t need to be a member anymore.”

June opened the bottle. My eyes widened and my mouth closed. My vision blurred. Please, don’t make me drink that!

“Rishel, open your mouth,” said June. Suddenly his eyes lit up. I teared up even more. I averted my face from him.

“June, let me do it,” said Tiden.

“No. I know you’re weak in front of this girl, Tiden Rude. You can’t do it.”

Suddenly, Levi stepped forward. “I can make her open her mouth, June.”

I looked at Levi. He was staring at me and I shook my head. No!

June left on top of me. I quickly crawled and stood up. I was about to run when Levi grabbed my shoulder. I struggled but he was too strong. He hugged me from behind and buried his face in my neck.

I was stunned by what he did. Did he just lick my neck?

“That’s it, baby…” he whispered in my ear. My muscles trembled. I struggled but gradually my muscles lost strength especially when his hand kneaded my chest.

“Levi!” I screamed. My body’s trembling due to fright. I shut my mouth tight.

He laughed in my ear. He pulled me closer to his body and turned my face to the side. He pressed his lips to my skin. I feel even colder.

“Rishel,” he whispered. “Open your mouth now or I’ll make you moan my name. You choose.”

I thought, just like in the novel, what he said would make me feel warm. But, it’s the opposite. I feel colder. A shudder traveled through my muscles and it almost choked my heart. Because it wasn’t his voice that I heard.

It’s a voice that I can’t tell if it’s a woman or a man. A voice that sounded like it was coming from a pit, like it was coming from inside a coffin. Sounds like the voice of the dead.

“Open your mouth now!”

My body trembled even more. I shook my head and closed my eyes tightly. He flicked his tongue, making a sound. My body stiffened when his hand traveled down and unzipped my pants.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“No!” I yelled.

But it’s too late. He held me. My lips parted and I realized that he was forcing something cold into my mouth.

I threw my head back. I could feel the liquid travelled from my tongue down my throat. I cried as I tasted chisel and iron. It felt like drinking blood.

It’s nauseating. My body trembled with suppressed anger.
