Chapter 124: One That Left Unnoticed-I

Elise jumped along with Ian without thinking twice. In her mind was his hand and Elise reached out her hand to catch his. Although she was scared for life to fall from the cliff to jump down into the darkness, Elise managed to open her eyes that she didn\'t know how she was able to in a sweep, suddenly, the wind that brushed against her cheeks and hair stopped to a calmer one that was different then the time she had fallen down from the cliff.

Elise could her heart drumming. It was a miracle her heart didn\'t jumped out of her throat she thought and it was until a while was she able to grasp what was happening surrounding her.

It took few seconds for Elise to finally come to notice Ian\'s red eyes watching her with a narrowing gaze before his grin was stretched wide, "Elise did you just thought to die with me?" He asked playfully, his hand coming to settle strongly to catch her waist and carried Elise by her arm.

The lone action of touching her waist should make Elise to be flustered if like always not to mention he had carried her like a princess. Right now Elise was in state of stunned that her mind had stopped to function.

The girl on his arm didn\'t even blink, Ian thought and he chuckled at her expression, having a very much amusement from Elise\'s surprised expression.

Elise for the first time was beyond shocked and baffled. Her eyes watched Ian\'s but she felt all her energy had slipped of her body that she wasn\'t able to voice out a word. After another few seconds did her blue eyes caught the magnificent black wings flapping mildly on the air from Ian\'s back.

Her pounding heart in her chest that were loud and thundering made her loose her focus just when she was about to grasp on it. Once they reached to the edge of the cliff, Ian\'s shoes arrived first at the edge before his second step followed to walk a little away that the very sharp cut edge of the surface.

Elise watched how Ian\'s long black wings that covered almost all light and the sun from her view coming to settle the ends behind his back as if to rest behind his back before eventually disappeared without trace. Or at first Elise thought it disappeared without trace until a black feather had flew from the wind and come to settle on her laps. Taking the feather to her hand, Elise swung the jet black feather as if to make sure it was real and it was!

Ian didn\'t placed Elise down and still carried her by his arm as he continued to walk away from the cliff to settle at a place that wasn\'t too close of far from where they had jumped. The correct sequence was that he had jumped down for Elise to follow.

Ian didn\'t expect the human girl to do that. His sweet girl, thought Ian. Did Elise thought to jump from the cliff out of fear he had tried to kill himself?

Elise was still dizzy, her view felt as if the world turning around her from both the shock of falling that she hadn\'t prepared herself for and the surprise that Ian had a pair of wings that was in the color of inky black.

"Y-you have w-wings, Master Ian. It\'s a-attached on your back." said Elise with her lips stammering. It was real because the feather is still on her hand.

"Yes it is, attached to my back but I\'ve put them back to where it belonged." In truth, Ian had only wanted to show her his true form, the wings and another pair that was attached to his body but Elise followed him to jump even though she had no wings. Elise also had missed something she should have been able to see if she didn\'t jumped with him. "Should I say that I\'m glad that you trust me so much that you weren\'t afraid to throw your life for me or upset that you thought I was going to dive into my death."

Elise drew her brows, finally her words came to her lips that she could speak, "You jumped without prior notice."

"That\'s because I want to surprise you." Ian looked at her eyes, his red gaze were glittering with amusement that light up the dark red color. He saw for the first time a look of protest in Elise\'s face. How could she not? Elise had really thought Ian was going to die and leave the world.

"Next time I will remind myself to notify you." Ian said as if offering her a choice.

"I think you should tell me that you have wings first." replied Elise to have Ian chuckling on her breezily.

"I\'ll keep in mind if you say so."

Elise thought to step away only to realize that her legs couldn\'t move her body. No, it wasn\'t that she couldn\'t move her body because they were still on the air and Elise hadn\'t noticed it. For the past few days Ian had closed the distance between them, telling her not to run away like she did in the gallery room which worked to stop Elise from running away from him.

Unbecoming to Elise, her entire body had accustomed to the lack of breathing space they shared. She didn\'t noticed how close they were to each other and even thought that it was their usual distance. Color of pink covered her cheeks. Elise was flustered to get down and she spoke, "I think I should get down." she said because her heart was about burst now! Elise hoped something could cover her face and did try to use her hand when Ian out or purpose stopped her from doing so.

"It\'s not every day you will be on my hand Elise, you should enjoy when you have the time to." Ian wisely gave his words.

Elise wish she could enjoy Ian carrying her arm but the closer his hand was to her waist and his lips to her forehead, Elise thought she couldn\'t do it. She was about to faint!
