Chapter 28 why did I let him touch me? Why did I not stop him?
Evelyn
Adrian was staring at me angrily... his gaze pierced straight through me until a light shiver crawled down my spine.
Wait... am I actually afraid of him? Or am I only confused because of the way he makes me feel?
“Do not let anyone ruin your mood, okay? Come on, let us go my friend... Mom, take care of yourself, and if you feel any pain call me immediately.”
Marcus said it while grabbing his bag quickly.
Adrian was still staring at me as if he wanted to strangle me with his own hands.
I swallowed nervously before speaking with quiet tension:
“Take care of yourselves on the way... and do not worry, Marcus, I am fine now.”
Eventually they left the apartment, leaving me alone eating the pancakes Marcus made while my thoughts mercilessly devoured my head.
A frustrated sigh escaped me.
“Why does he act with me so comfortably anyway?”
Suddenly... I remembered.
His hands... the way he touched me.
The way he made my breathing fall apart as though I had never breathed before that moment.
An embarrassed gasp escaped me before both my hands rushed to cover my face.
“Damn it... why did I let him touch me? Why did I not stop him? Have I gone crazy? What is happening to me? How did I allow all this to happen?”
My foot stomped against the floor irritably while heat still lingered beneath my stomach.
“It is like he hypnotizes me magnetically... I cannot resist him.”
I took a bite of the pancake while muttering to myself with childish frustration:
“Evelyn, you need to be wise. You are a mature woman, not some hormone obsessed teenager...”
Then I suddenly stopped.
“Wait... why did I say teenager?”
A heavy breath left me before sarcasm toward myself slipped out quietly:
“Damn it... only rabbits cannot control themselves during sex. Looks like I was a rabbit in my past life.”
I quickly drank some juice while trying to ignore his image inside my head, but everything became worse when I remembered his voice beside my ear... the way he whispered my name... those hungry eyes.
Nervously, my hand rested over my stomach.
“But he is terrifyingly attractive... like living temptation. I feel as though I am trapped in the middle of a barren desert, and Adrian is the only water in front of me. Why does it feel like if I get any closer, I will drown in him completely?”
My lips pressed together tightly.
“Damn my life.”
I stood up quickly and started cleaning the table to escape my thoughts, but Kai’s words returned to my head once again.
Another problem... great.
Darker thoughts swallowed me further while I wiped the table with slight roughness as if pouring all my tension into it.
