Bride of the Dragon Emperor

33 A Figment of Imagination

Night came...

A girl and a boy walked in a beautiful garden. Petals continuously fell from the cherry trees painting the whole scene in dreamy pink. The two people walked hand in hand until the scene changed from a new different place.

The two stood on a wooden bridge. Above them were the branches from peach blossom trees. The girl and boy changed into a grown up woman and man. The woman was wearing a little princess dress like those from the future. While the man wore a black suit.

Like watching a beautiful movie, Xiao Xingxing silently stood at the side. Not wanting to disturb this romantic harmony. Even though she could not see the face of the two, she knew that both of them were happy and smiling as they hold each others hands.

As she watched further, Xiao Xingxing can't help but place her palm on her chest. Feeling the beat of her heart as it thumped faster and faster inside, her eyes remained fixed at the happy couple.

In an instance, the scenery changed again.

Different from the two scenes earlier, she did not saw the loving couple from before.

This time, she was alone in a bedroom. The room where she's at resembled those of from the ancient fantasy dramas she had watched. The place gives off a magical feeling like your in a different world. There were may kinds of beautiful flowers placed in every corners of the room and the butterflies happily flies around them; everything she sees felt dreamy and surreal. She roamed her eyes around the room and that's when Xiao Xingxing realizes that she was actually sitting on a large bed.

As she was busy appreciating the wonderful view, a pair of strong arms unexpectedly snaked around her thin waist. She gave a start when she felt something hard landed on her shoulder. Like a pet seeking for warmth, that hard thing on her shoulder moved as it burrowed deeply, rubbing on her neck.

Suddenly, she felt something warm tickling her jaw. Feeling conflicted, she tried moving away but that pair of strong arms caressing her waist tightened and a complaining groan was heard coming from her back.

The moment she heard that groan, Xiao Xingxing felt her heart inside her chest wildly pounding like a jackhammer. An earthy scent of sandalwood assaulted her nostrils. She felt her blood flow all over her face as an attractive blush painted her peerless cheeks. The scent is masculine in every sense and the earthy fragrance oddly brought an indescribable warmth inside her body.

Oh my! She actually felt hot.

Her body trembled at that thought. The person hugging her from the back seemingly noticed her shaking. He loosened the hug and lifted his hand to touch her face.

When Xiao Xingxing saw that gorgeous hand, the expression on her face softened and a gentle smile that she did not even noticed forming, appeared on her face.

That gorgeous hand stopped midway and it landed on her soft chin. Those long, slender warm fingers that carries a tinge of pinkish color in them gently caress her skin.

After that, those fingers calmly moved, slowly turning Xiao Xingxing's head; allegedly trying to face her to the person at her back.

Xiao Xingxing felt nervous, but at the same time, she felt incredibly excited. As soon as she was about to see that person's face, a blinding light shone and she was brought back to reality.

Beads of sweat trickling from her forhead, to her face, down to her neck. She was breathing heavily. There was an intense tightening in her chest. It felt stuffy and it leave her struggling to draw a full, enough breath.

Moments later, after calming herself, she was now feeling okay and her breathing turned to normal. But her mind was still in frenzy. She was feeling more and more confused. Questions flooding her as she thought back to scenes in her dream.

Simultaneously inside the Emperor's chamber, a man in his inner robe was half sitting, half lying on his wide bed. Diamond like sweat trickled on his perfectly chisled face down to his sexy neck. He was catching his breath as his broad chest occasionally moved inwardly and upwards.

He seemingly looked pale and gentle under the moonlight coming from the outside, different from his usual cold and aloof appearance. But an inexplicable aura in him arose as he recalled those intimate scenariosin his dream.

As though a fire was lit inside him, his deep eyes darkened and both of his hand balled into tight fist as he thought back of that certain soft figure in his mind.
