Chapter 18 SHE SNEERED
Alba came out of the bathroom with only a towel tied around his waist. Mahina couldn’t believe her eyes. She tried to look away but it was as if her eyes had a mind of its own. Her eyes were glued to the perfectly carved muscled body of Alba. The steam rising from his skin made him look like a sexy movie star or even a sexy Greek god, you could say. Even though from Mahina’s point of view she had never seen a man as handsome as him. It was as if he steered a feeling deep in her soul. She couldn’t quiet explain. She was happy and sad and scared all at the same time. Just looking at him made her a wreck of different feelings.
His v-line was so attractive she couldn’t take her eyes away from them. Little drops of water from his hair and the ones stuck to his body trailed down from his upper bare skin to the skin of his broad chest;
“My silky Kitty! I had no idea you are such a bad girl! I mean I know you are, but I wasn’t sure…” He called her a couple of times, but she was lost in her thoughts and couldn’t answer him. Alba smiled at the adorable lustful looking Mahina. Seeing that she was carried away by his body. He took of his towel, and she immediately came back to her senses.
“Oh my gosh! What did you do that for?” she quickly covers her eyes with her fingers.
“You seem to love the sight of my body so... being the generous man I am, I decided why not show it to my curious silky Kitty… and… it will be our little secret” He gave her a toothy smile. As he moved closer to her. She looked away and walked away from him.
“You seem extra confident of your body” she sneered at him.
“Shouldn’t I? don’t I look good?... Some may even think I look like a Greek god” He suggested mischievously. Knowing fully well that he has a killer body. A body that makes women drool after him. He went to his closet and quickly got dressed. Mahina couldn’t help closing her eyes and taking a deep breath of his scent when he returned. He smelled like wine and wild berries.
After getting dressed in only a loosed trouser he walked towards her and stopped midway and began staring at her. She became confused as to why he was staring at her, it was as if he wanted to request something from her. He took gradual steps to where she was seated at the corner of the room. Meanwhile her eyes were still fixated on him. She wondered why he was standing in front of her. Mahina wanted to just swiftly run from there but then she was fully aware that there was no escape for her. He looked at the small figure on the floor. She was hugging her legs with her eyes raised to him. Alba was very tall, so when he stood in front of her he was towering over her. He bent on one leg and carried her effortlessly in his arms and took her into the shower room.
As she stood in the large bathroom, she was staggered. Her heart was racing really fast. The feeling of fear of the unknown. As Alba approached her and started taking off her shirt.
“Stop!... what are you doing?” she was still staggered, while looking at him.
“Taking off your shirt, to bath you” he answered her unfazed, while staring intensely at her body.
“I can do that myself... thank you! Perv” Alba smirked. It wasn’t the first time she called him a perv. He often at times just smiled about it, because nobody has ever dared to call Alba Marcello’s a perv, but this girl had the nerve, the audacity to be calling him a perv over and over again.
“Get out of the bathroom! Now” Alba turned and went away, silently with a smirk on his face.
After Alba left, Mahina Immersed herself inside the bath tub and felt the warm water heat up her skin. She smiled and closed her eyes. She finally felt a little bit relaxed after a difficult day.
A maid came in and packed her dirty clothes in a laundry bag and left, right away. Mahina was unaware of the maid’s presence completely, as she was enjoying her warm water bath.
When she was done soaking in the warm bath, she left the bath tub and started looking for her clothes but couldn’t find it anywhere. She searched for a towel, but couldn’t find any decent towel. So she made use of the short towel that was obviously showing her bubble butt cheeks. She stayed there contemplating whether to leave the shower room or to stay there. She was frightened to the point; she felt like a prey hiding from a predator. She peeked through the open door, and she saw Alba lying on the bed lazily.
“Can I have my clothes back” she asked a little bit audibly from the bathroom. Alba smiled but didn’t reply anything. She was agitated at his silence. Seeing that Alba was not replying to her she took long strides out of the bathroom and stood in front of the bed. Her heart was thumping so loudly in her chest she could barely hear anything except for the warning voices in her head.
After feeling her presence in the room he finally answered her. “What clothes are you talking about?” he asked. Mahina was certain that he was the one that took her clothes. She was about to flare up when the maid came in and asked;
“Master I noticed a tear from your shirt. Should I throw it away? or wash it along with the young mistress clothes.
“You may throw it away. It’s not needed anymore” Mahina was embarrassed. She felt shy and stupid. She wished she had asked him, instead of concluding. Mahina was about to apologize when Alba stood up from the bed and carried her in his arms and said;
“You don’t necessarily need clothes to sleep, do you?”
He dropped her on the bed with only her short towel tight to her chest. Mahina dared not to make any movements on the bed or her body would be exposed to the hungry looking man beside her. She wasn’t wearing any underwear, so she was carful.
She watched as the man laid next to her and spooned her. While she laid there stiff and unmoving. Alba closed his eyes. She felt as if he wasn’t sleeping. Actually she was certain that he was not sleeping at all. She was tired and hungry but didn’t dare say anything. Alba was aware that Mahina was hungry, tired and uncomfortable with how she was lying but he kept quiet to see how much she could endure his torture;
“Are you hungry?” Alba asked sarcastically.
“Yes” she answered honestly as she hadn’t the strength to drag the conversation.
“I am hungry too!” Alba replied her frantically and she thought he was actually being honest.
“Really?” She was surprised that they were actually agreeing on the same thing for the first time.
“Yeah!” Mahina was relieved at the thought of food. Finally, she was able to get the strong headed man to do something she wanted.
“Alright! Let’s go look for something to eat” she convinced him.
“Okay!” he answered casually.
Alba put on his t-shirt for her effortlessly. The shirt stopped on her mid-thigh, and he knelt on one knee while gazing into her eyes he slipped his hands under the shirt and loosened the towel. Mahina was startled by the sudden movement. She felt shy as she watched her towel fall to the ground. He trailed his fingers on her skin as he brought out his hands from inside her shirt. Mahina was flushed by his acts. She was flustered and angry all at the same time. Alba smiled at the sight of her flushed cheeks. He held her hands and led her to the massive dining room with assorted meals and desert on it.
Mahina was about to seat on the dinning chair to start eating when Alba stopped her midway. He pointed to the furry looking rug in the living room. Food was also served on the small table on the rug. He led her there and made her seat;
“I will feed you” he said while looking into her eyes. Mahina was too hungry to think too much about the offer. She nodded and open her mouth to show him, she was hungry. He picked a strawberry and dipped it inside chocolate and asked;
“Would you feed me as well?”
“Yeah” She answered hurriedly.
“How well?” he asked in a husky tone
“As much as you want.” He smiled at her response and started feeding her the fruits first, then the pasta, after that he gave her a glass of juice, that she drank without hesitation. Mahina had a gleam in her eyes and a smile all the while Alba was feeding her. She wiped her lips with the napkin after taking her glass of juice and said;
“It’s your turn now”
“Yeah feed me!” Alba answered her with a toothy smile.
Mahina picked a strawberry and dipped it inside chocolate and extended her hands to feed him, but Alba collected it and fed her instead, then he said.
“That’s not what I want to eat!”
