Awkward
1403 Words
Evelyn felt a paralyzing fear as she stared at the source of the noise, a scream welling up in her throat but unable to escape. If anyone were to catch sight of her and Alexander in such a compromising position, it would undoubtedly send the entire Alexander household into a tailspin!
Before Alexander could even decipher her expression, Evelyn had already spotted an opportunity to extricate herself from his grasp. She spun around like a whirlwind and made a beeline for the doorway. Just then, the door was already slightly ajar. She frantically grabbed the doorknob and strained to keep it from opening any further.
"Hmm?" Aunt Chen's voice drifted in from the hallway, filled with concern. "Miss Evelyn, is everything all right?"
"Aunt Chen... I'm not decent!" Evelyn blurted out, her voice shaky as she leaned her entire weight against the door, only revealing a fraction of her tousled hair. Aunt Chen didn't budge, her eyes darting curiously, trying to peer through the c***k.
After a moment of futile peeping, Aunt Chen finally spoke up. "Miss, breakfast is ready." Normally, Aunt Chen would have knocked and then entered the room to escort Evelyn downstairs. This morning, however, she seemed unusually persistent.
"I... I'm coming!" Evelyn replied hurriedly, her cheeks burning as she prepared to shut the door. Suddenly, she felt a strong presence closing in from behind. It was Alexander, his aura intimidating as he towered over her.
Even without turning her head, she sensed the abnormally.
Before she could close it, Evelyn's delicate waist was suddenly enveloped by a pair of burning large hands.
A wave of heat, starting from where Alexander touched her, spread fiercely elsewhere.
Currently, she was completely exposed, and with a sudden touch, she was frightened into a light scream.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Hearing Evelyn's scream, Aunt Chen's steps, which were about to leave, stopped again.
"Nothing... My foot suddenly cramped up!" Evelyn was nearly driven to distraction by Alexander's mischief, her small face awkwardly maintaining a smile, her small hand reaching behind her, angrily brushing off Alexander's restless hand.
A seemingly ticklish and bone-melting flirty tone echoed beside her ear, making her blood surge.
The small hand trying to stop him waved nervously a few times and was suddenly tightly grasped by him, unable to move.
Her slender fingertips were gently pried open one by one by Alexander, and the next second... a cool palm touched the burning heat that made people blush! That seemed to be Alexander's...
"Ah!!" Evelyn screamed in embarrassment and anger, wishing to turn around and slap him right away.
However, Aunt Chen was still outside the door, and she could only restrain herself, but still couldn't help but be frightened into shouting.
"Miss, what's wrong? Is the cramp really bad?" Aunt Chen frowned in confusion and actually took a few steps back.
Listening to Evelyn's scream just now, it seemed particularly wrong, was her foot cramped up very seriously?
"I... I'm fine, no need, thank you, Aunt Chen!" Evelyn, unable to cope any longer, said hastily with a bitter smile and quickly shut the door, even locking it from inside.
Until Aunt Chen's footsteps faded away, Evelyn took a deep breath and angrily pushed Alexander away,
"Alexander, you p*****t!!!"
"Hmm? p*****t? What did I do?" Looking at his deliberately ignorant demeanor, Evelyn's small face looked like a pink apple.
"You just..."
"Just what?" Alexander seemed to have eaten her up, deliberately inducing her to continue.
Evelyn's hand was trembling, and the burning sensation from the earlier contact seemed to still linger in her palm.
That pulsating feeling made her feel dizzy whenever she thought about it.
"Alexander, you actually... actually allowed me to touch your... this is repulsive! You degenerate!" Evelyn spat out through clenched teeth, yet her eyes were involuntarily drawn to follow the opening of his robe, coming to a halt as they feasted on the sight of his chiseled six-pack abs.
She was afraid that if she kept looking, not only would her eyes go blind, but she might also spray blood from her nose.
"Is that what you think?" Alexander chuckled, his eyes glinting with malice as he raised his thin lips, "Foolish girl, I didn't expect you to have so many thoughts in your mind!"
"You..." Evelyn was furious, and the teasing look on the man's face made her even more enraged.
Alexander's eyebrows flicked up, capturing her hand once again.
This forceful contact made her shiver all over, and she tried to struggle but to no avail.
She felt like a caged bird, fluttering helplessly in his grasp, unable to break free from his hold, no matter how hard she struggled.
Alexander's eyes were dark, carrying a mysterious smile that was incomprehensible.
Evelyn held her breath, her eyes already widened in tension.
Alexander captured her small hand and guided it downwards, towards the shadow under his robe...
Was he thinking of doing it again...?
Noticing her blush that was almost dripping with blood, Alexander played with a smile and suddenly let her grasp his other wrist!
The constant warmth and texture that was conveyed appeared to be precisely identical to what she had been compelled to grasp at the threshold.
That pulsating... was his pulse!
"Foolish girl, what did you think you were holding just now?" Alexander's lips curved into a half-smile, and every word that came out of his thin lips made her even more embarrassed.
It turned out that she had been holding his wrist just now, not... that thing!
Evelyn wished she could bash her own head; what was she thinking!
No, it wasn't her fault; it was all Alexander's doing!
After holding her breath for a long time, Evelyn couldn't refute and blushed as she squeaked from her nose, "Hmph!"
Her exposed skin was wrapped in the coolness of the air, reminding her again of her disarray in front of Alexander.
Everything had already transpired between them, and despite her best efforts to conceal it, the truth and the traces on her body were undeniable.
Maintaining a facade of composure, Evelyn retrieved a fresh set of clothing and uttered without glancing back, "Kindly depart at once; this is my private quarters." After a moment of hesitation, as though recollecting something, she tentatively added, "Let us simply dismiss last night's events as though they were but a fleeting dream."
Her feigned equanimity only served to k****e Alexander's ire.
What did she mean by that?
Was she trying to deny it after enjoying it?
He, Alexander, was just a one-time antidote for her last night?
Was this girl naive, thinking that it was over just like that?!
Evelyn had just donned a simple T-shirt when a muscular arm wrapped mischievously around her waist, drawing her intimately close so that a fiery chest pressed tightly against her back.
In this intimate proximity, Evelyn could even feel the contours of Alexander's muscles and the distinctive energy that was starting to resurface.
"What do you want? Let me go!" she exclaimed, despite her words, she was already intimidated by his presence and didn't dare to move, fearing that the slightest motion might trigger the primal instincts of this man, who seemed like a beast ready to pounce.
"Evelyn, you'd better understand that this matter will definitely not end just like that!" Leaving a chilling threat, Alexander turned away angrily, and the loud slamming of the door almost pierced her eardrums.
Staring at the mess on the ground, Evelyn's heart sank little by little.
What did Alexander mean by those words? What did he want to do?
"Miss? Aren't you ready yet?" Aunt Chen's prompting sounded again at the door, and Evelyn hastily collected her thoughts, hiding the torn cloth and the obvious male underwear in her backpack.
She didn't dare to throw such things in the bedroom trash; she could only dispose of them outside when she went to school later.
She regulated her breathing and pretended to be nonchalant as she went downstairs. The Smiths were already seated, and even Alexander, who had been teasing her earlier, was seated properly.
In a suit, Alexander looked noble and elegant, without any trace of the evilness from earlier when he teased her.
However, only she knew what kind of wolf's skin this man wore under his suit!
Upon hearing the footsteps coming down the stairs, the originally indifferent gaze suddenly lifted sharply, enveloping Evelyn in his sight.
