Chapter 259 - Make A New Contract

"Eros… I love you."

Those words resounded in his ears, over and over again. Eros felt like time stopped and everything around them was in slow motion.

'Selene said she likes me… she loves me… Am I not really dreaming?' Eros asked himself, his gaze was focused on her face.

Selene pouted her lips. She could still see that Eros looked absentminded as if he didn't absorb what she had just said. He was shocked beyond belief.

Selene suddenly became anxious. What if Eros would hate her for this? What if Eros didn't feel the same way?

'Did I make a wrong choice? Was it a big mistake to confess my feelings for him?'

Selene's heart was now filled with anxiety and uncertainties. She looked down, trying her best not to cry.

Eros didn't say a word. She already confessed her feelings, telling him what's inside her heart. But Eros just remained looking at her without uttering a word.

Selene felt like she committed a great sin because of Eros's silence. She was now too embarrassed to face him. She wanted to hide from him.

Without thinking twice, Selene pushed Eros away from her body. She had forgotten that they were floating in the air.

She just found herself being pulled by gravity. She was falling at a high speed.

'No!'

Eros, who was in a state of shock, suddenly snapped out of his deep stupor when Selene's body slipped away from his grasp.

His eyes widened in horror the moment he saw her falling from that height. Eros spread his wings right away and flew toward Selene.

He caught her in no time. Selene opened her eyes only to see Eros's worried expression.

"Hey, why did you do that? Are you trying to kill yourself?" Eros scolded her slightly.

Selene hit his shoulder as her tears threatened to fall. She felt upset since Eros didn't say a word after her confession.

"Selene… don't cry… I'm not mad. I'm just worried about you…" Eros softly said when her tears began to fall.

"I hate you, Eros! I hate you!"

Eros: "..."

Selene continued punching Eros's chest. She felt annoyed and irritated now because of Eros's nonchalant behavior.

But before Selene could utter another word, Eros's lips were already brushing her lips. He kissed her tenderly and sensually.

Selene blinked her eyes several times, clueless about what was happening. She couldn't figure out Eros. She already confessed but he didn't respond to her. But when she said that she hated him, he suddenly kissed her. Eros was making her more confused.

Feeling upset, Selene bit Eros's lower lip while kissing him. This was a sign of her punishment against him.

But because of what she did, Eros deepened the kiss further. His lips moved aggressively, smashing her lips with his.

At that certain moment, Eros could tell that he was not imagining things nor dreaming. Selene said those words to him! She confessed her feelings for him!

Eros's heart was now singing with joy. It was pounding so hard against his chest. He couldn't believe that Selene loved him… that she also had feelings for him.

He already thought of so many ways on how to steal him away from Renz. He already made up his mind to seduce her further so that he could replace Renz in her heart.

Who would have thought that he didn't need to do it anymore? He was already in her heart. He already succeeded in kicking Renz out of her heart and now, he was the one occupying all the space in her heart.

Eros wanted to scream in joy but he couldn't. He preferred to kiss Selene passionately to express his happiness. He felt like he won a jackpot!

'She loves me! Selene loves me!' Eros repeated these words inside his mind over and over again. It was like a mantra, echoing in his ears.

Eros just released her lips when they needed to catch some air. He cupped her face, looking at her intently.

"Selene… I love you too." 

Eros finally gave his response to Selene's confession.

"Can you please repeat it?" Selene mumbled, staring straight into his eyes.

"I'm sorry, Selene. It took me a while before realizing I am not dreaming. Yes, Selene. You heard it right! I am…" Eros paused for a moment, taking a deep breath.

"I am also in love with you. Selene, I really really like you! Selene, I love you so much!"

Selene gasped in surprise. She felt her heart fluttering right now. Eros's confession was putting her on cloud nine. His words were like beautiful pieces of music. She would love to hear it over and over again.

Selene hugged Eros tightly while leaning her head on his sturdy chest. "I thought you didn't like me, that's why you stayed silent after my confession."

Eros let out a husky laugh. He felt the urge to hit his head for acting so stupid and dumb in front of his beloved woman. He was supposed to be the one confessing his feelings first. But Selene did it first.

She took all her courage to confess her feelings tonight. He should have done it first. But he didn't care about that. All he could think right now was that both of them were in love with each other. They had feelings for each other. That's all he needed in order to continue fighting for his love.

A love between a human and an angel was forbidden. He was her cupid and she was his human contractee. This was a bit complicated and… a beautiful mess!

"Eros… what will happen now to our previous contract? Will you be in trouble because of this? What should we do now?" Selene asked him worriedly.

Eros hugged her tightly before smiling lovingly.

"Selene, let's forget about our first contract… Let's make a new one!" Eros suggested.

Selene gazed up, meeting Eros's eyes.

"A new contract?" 

Eros bobbed his head while giving her a reassuring smile.

"Yes! Let's make a new contract!"

Eros cupped her face and continued his words.

"Selene… Be mine! And I'll be yours! I will be your angel forever and you will be my heaven!"
