Chapter 5 Those Familiar Eyes

Esperanza was working in the garden, collecting grapes from the trees. 

That garden was near the forest, and Esperanza liked that place by the reason there was calmness, and no one came there to disturb her. 

She was collecting grapes in a bucket while signing a polite tone. 

This garden was green and beautiful they had numerous trees of grapes. 

"Laaa... Laaa.... Laaaa," she let out, and with that, she heard someone sobbing, that's not a human sob but an animal's.

She turned her eyes towards the forest and the sob started to get higher. 

She ran towards the forest and saw a deer lying down with blood coming from its stomach. 

She gasped and ran towards the deer. 

"What happened to you little one," she was so frightened. 

And suddenly she looked at her hands. 

She places her hands on that deer's stomach and smiles a golden light comes from her hand and the deer feels relieved. 

"Everything will be alright," She let out and the deer went alright. 

The blood stopped and the deer opened his eyes. 

"I told you," she smiled and caressed the deer's skin. 

"Don't tell anybody," she said and the deer ran away, she looked around and stood up. 

"Should I talk to mother?" She let out. 

" No, they are in trouble they can get more worried about this, but what is this, why is this happening to me," Esperanza said with a gasp.

"Forget it, who's going to believe you," she looked at her hand and gasped again. 

She walked to the garden again and instigated amassing grapes.

She takes the grapes and pours them into a wine presser, the windlass crushes the grapes in the container and then the juice comes out in the concrete basin. 

Then Esperanza stores that juice into a huge amphora where it gets fermented and ready to serve. 

"Oh, Gosh this was tiring," after winding up all the work Esperanza breathed in composure, carrying a huge pot of wine was another task for her, and those pots were really heavy a muscular man could get down by pulling those pots up. She sits in the room where the wine amphora was the place to get some rest. 

"Master, do you know she is in the vineyard she is working alone there," Mason tells this to Caspian and he frowns.

" You are right, her delicate hands are pushing and pulling all that heavy stuff," Caspian felt bad for her. 

"But this is her job, they earn from it huh?" Mason said and Caspian frowned. 

" After I get married to her I will not let anyone see her beautiful face, I will cage her in my home in my room, without my permission she will not be able to go anywhere," Caspian let out in a thunderous voice. 

" Yes, Master, you should she is so beautiful you need to keep evil eyes off her," Mason said, and Caspian nodded. 

"Let's go and see what she is doing," Caspian said and stepped towards the vineyard. 

Esperanza was sleeping when a pair of blue eyes were staring at her, his muscular and heavily marked body was clouding over her, her every breath was saying that she was exhausted and her position was telling that she was craving for rest, that man who was standing in front of her having a pure skin and he was wearing a tight yellow and white attire that fighters wear, and whole of his waist was covered with weapons, he seems to be a fighter, his face was marked and his every feature was deep, he has stunning jawline and cheekbones they were high and enchanting, he has a sharp nose and sharp lips, his face was long and his mouth was just perfect, he was tall and handsome, his hairs were brown and were ruffled like he didn't comb them, was so tempting.

Suddenly he heard someone coming he looked around and jumped over the roof he sat on the ceiling and saw who was coming.

"My, Master, she is sleeping," that was Mason and Caspian who went to see her.

Esperanza seems enchantingly desirable suddenly Caspian's heart wants to ravish her and get all her innocence. 

"Master, what are you thinking?" Mason asks and that disgust is rolling off Caspian's face. 

"Do you know how many years she got turned? Caspian asks. 

"I think this is going to be her eighteenth birthday this year," Mason said. 

" Oh, impressive," Caspian smirked. 

"You need to leave us alone, I never see this beauty helplessly sleeping like this," Caspian said.

"What do you mean Master?" Mason asks.

" I mean, she turned over things when it comes to our marriage, I think I should make her mine, so she doesn't get any option, just me," Caspian smirked mischievously.

"Master, but she is innocent," Mason was not wanting this at any outlay.

"Shut up Mason you don't know anything, go outside and wait for me," Caspian said and Mason had no option instead to obey him. 

" Master maybe you will never see her again after this," Mason whispered a thing when he was stepping outside. 

"My Esperanza I am not wrong, I am just doing this because I can't let you go, any time any beast can attack you, and take it from you, I want to be the only one," he let out and smirked. 

That man who was standing above and watching him coming closer fisted. 

And his jaw was clenched, he skimmed Caspian's strength intensely and smirked. 

He knows Caspian's power, and without coming in front of anyone he has to protect Esperanza. 

A blue light appeared from his eyes and Caspian was about to take off his shirt, suddenly he was not able to push her shirt off, his body became dependent, powerless, even vulnerable, he was not able to hold his weight and that man was gleaming his eyes while absorbing all his powers. 

"What... What is happening to me," He let out with all the strength he left, he didn't have the power to speak also. 

Suddenly Esperanza opened her eyes and saw him helplessly standing above her, her eyes widened and she got off from here abruptly. 

" Caspian .......," her breath went faster and she gazed at him with disgust. 

"Help me Esperanza my body is not working," he let out and Esperanza frowned. 

" What do you mean?" She asked and Mason heard them talking. 

He stands at some distance but Esperanza calls him

"Mason, come here fast," Esperanza let out. 

" I want your support Esperanza what are you doing," Caspian cried for help but Esperanza felt disdain. 

" Don't worry, your helper is coming," She let out and smiled softly at Caspian. 

" Mason," She whispered, Mason came and saw his Master struggling while standing. 

" Take him, he is not able to walk, and what are you guys doing here?" Esperanza asked the foremost query. 

Mason gives him his shoulder and takes all his weight on him but Caspian becomes so fragile he is not having any weight now. 

" I don't know, I was not here, Master wanted to meet you," Mason takes out whatever he was having in his mouth.

"I think I should go now," Mason said and took his master with him. 

Esperanza gasped and looked around and asked herself. 

"Why was he here?" But she had no time for other things every night they had great traffic at their tavern, and all slavish and foppish people joined together and enjoyed their night at their tavern. 

She turned and suddenly that man jumped down from the ceiling.

Esperanza felt his presence and veered around quickly. 

She stopped and her green eyes stared into his blue eyes and Esperanza was familiar with these two eyes. 

" Remember me?" He asked in his heavy manly voice that was seductive and hot. 

Suddenly her heartbeat went faster and that handsome man smirked. 

" Who..... Who are you?" She asked with a wobbling tongue. 

" So it means you forget me," he asked in a playful and expressionless tone, from gesture he seemed to be a cold and heartless person. 

Her mind clicked on that incident when she met for the first time to a dragon. 

"That..... That dragon," she let out and a wide smile took place on his lips. 

" You remember me," he was really happy to hear this but her hard expressions were not letting that happiness out. 

"What... What are you doing here, you need to leave," she said and he frowned. 

"I was lucky for you, my dear," he let out and she frowned. 

"You need to be pleased, a handsome dragon is here to rescue you," he smirked and she swirled her eyes. 

" How arrogant are you, why I would be pleased, and listen, Mr. Dragon, your and my worlds are different you need to be there where you belong," she was letting out everything and that man was all shut and hearing her brave voice. 

" My lady, how brave to call a dragon an arrogant, and thank you for threatening me but your attempts are fragile," he let out and she took a step back. 

" Don't be afraid of me, that man was about to ravish you, if I was not here then you would lose your innocence forever, do you understand fragile human," his words made her eyes widen and her body went shuddering. 

"You need to take care of the people around you, trust me," he let out and she stayed in his eyes, his eyes stuck in her eyes and her was staying in his. 

" Be careful, this is not a woman's fault that they are beautiful, but the only fault they make is they forgets they need to keep an eye around her environment, they don't know which kind of person is surrounding them," his deep words were all clear to Esperanza but she can't sneak her eyes from his strong gaze. 

"Do you want to say anything?" He moved closer to her and her jaw dropped her eyes went wide and she looked up, that heavy body was towering over her. 

" Orion......," she whispered and he smirked. 

" So you remember my name," he smiled softly his expressionless and cold face was not abiding by that smile, he is a fighter and the fighter doesn't smile. 

" What are you doing here? Are you here to destroy my village?" Esperanza asks because she knows how dragons feel revolted by humans. 

" No little one, I am not here to destroy anyone, I am here to see you only," he gives his answer and Esperanza was figuring out which kinds of weapons he was holding on his waist. 

And on his back, he was holding a huge sword. 

" What are you? ....... I... I mean why are you holding all these weapons? Are you a slaughter?" Esperanza asks and he was shocked, no one ever talks to him like this, he was amused by her questions, and her innocence and naivety are attracting him. 

"No, not a slaughter but kind of," he replied. 

"Kind of mean?" She asked. 

" Means, I slaughter but not the animals," his reply made her stuck he snickered and her eyes went wider.
