Chapter Twenty-Seven

I shoved my hands in my pocket and looked around, we were at the top of the stairs.

“Look, Domino…” I started and she nodded, looking into my eyes. I noticed that she looked a bit flushed

“I wanted to tell you this, but you know, we were interrupted… So what I want to say is that I’m...”

“I don’t feel so good…” she trailed off.

“Domino…”

“I don’t fe…” Domino unconsciously leaned into my arms and I sighed.

“Domino?” I asked and she groaned. “Come on.”

I lifted Domino and carried her bridal style up the stairs and I could hear the guest downstairs cheering. I rolled my eyes as I approached the elevator.

I got around to opening up our door and I laid her down. I was about to pull away when an arm went around my neck. “Jaden...” she whispered. I could perceive the faint smell of the alcohol in her breath.

“I… want you to stay with me tonight.” She whispered.

“I have to go back down there or mum has to give the vote of thanks.” I said, untangling her arm from my neck.

She quickly fastened her arms and said, “But I want you… I want you to sleep with me.”

I sighed as I realized that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t refuse my baby.

“Fine.”

“Yay!” She smiled.

I pulled away and took off everything except for my trousers and socks and locked the door behind. I laid down next to her. The bed felt weird. It wasn't like the couch

or the guest room bed. It felt right.

Domino turned her face to me. She slowly found my hand and held onto it. I smiled. The tingle was definitely there.

I really wanted to do the deed with her, but I know I couldn't. She was so fucking perfect and incredibly sexy.

“You looked really beautiful tonight.” I complimented her.

“Thank you.” She giggled.

“Your body is divine and you’re the literal embodiment of beautiful. You’re perfect Domino.”

“Really?”

“Yes baby.” I cooed.

A few moments later, she let go of my hand and sat up.

“I still feel woozy.”

“You’d be fine baby.”

She stared at my chest.

“Are you still mad at me?” She looked up at me, her big doe orbs looked mesmerizing in the dimly lit atmosphere of the room.

"I don't want you to be mad at me… " She added.

She wrapped an arm around my neck and played with the hair at the back of my head. I smirked as I rubbed her back, cradling her in my arms.

“Jaden?” She whispered.

I could never get tired of my name leaving her lips. It sounded incredibly sexy every damn time.

Domino ran her hand over my toned torso. Her fingers were cool and it felt divine when she touched me like that.

“Yeah?” I asked, smirking.

“Be honest with me, ok?” she said.

“Sure.” I waited for her to speak.

“How many girls have you slept with?”

I hesitated.

“Tell me.” She said.

“Three.” I lied.

“Caught in a lie." she said, whispered, smirking. “The truth.”

“Fine. I’m going to be honest this time, I stopped counting after the seventh.” I said and she smiled.

She studied me for a second. "Would you ever consider sleeping with me?"

My eyes widened, definitely not expecting that question.

"Yes. In a heartbeat. You’re a literal goddess." I replied and she grinned.

She leaned in and rested her head on the crook of my neck. I smirked when I noticed she was inhaling my scent. Having her being this close to me made my wolf go wild. If she did anything more, my wolf would take over control and would do things that I wouldn’t dare do, yet.

“You know I really like your eyes, they are so beautiful. Beautiful hazel eyes.” She said, lifting her head and putting her hand on the side of my neck.

I smirked at her as she ran her fingers over my cheekbone. She leaned in, so close to me, my wolf went crazier. I pushed the uncontrollable feeling down, hoping that it could last a little longer.

“And I love your hair, the way they fall over your eyes when you sleep. Remember that one time you slept on my shoulders in the car, when we were coming home from the hospital?” she asked, grinning.

She took her hand off of my neck and played with my hair. My smile grew just by hearing Domino admire what she thinks was perfect about me. I knew she would never say things like this in her sober state.

“And you know what I love the most about you?” she asked, rhetorically. I waited for her answer.

“I really like your lips.” She said, smiling, before her eyes closed a little, leaning in closer to me.

I could feel my heart tug from her words. She put an arm around my neck and my heart started to pick up. She leaned in and kissed me.

My stomach twisted, erupting in butterflies as I felt her lips against mine. I brushed my lips with hers. I could feel my wolf taking control of me. I couldn't stop myself from what I was doing. Domino was mesmerizing.
