Capítulo 35: Tribulation
Zach was dumbstruck by what Keira said and did.
Her lips touched his, but then she suddenly passed out in his arms and he was made to quickly catch Keira's body to not let it slip onto the floor.
For the first time in his life, Zach did not know what to do.
For him, dealing with Keira at that moment seemed even harder than creating a strategy for a battle.
It was because of the handcuffs. He did not know whether to remain in their current position, where he was hugging Keira, or lay her down on the sofa.
The troublesome thing was that they were handcuffed, so it was impossible to properly carry Keira.
He looked around, but then he remembered that the key was in Keira's purse, which was at the other side of the table.
His phone was in his right pocket. If he tried to get it, Keira's body would slide down.
'Damn,' he cursed as he studied how awkward they look right now. Even the buzzer to call the waiter was far and out of reach.
Zach sighed. He was not comfortable in their position at all. Keira was so close that he could feel everything about her, even her same scent from before which seemed to not left him.
Meanwhile, Keira's face was buried on Zach's chest, so the latter could not see how wicked her smile was.
'It feels good, being cuddled like this.' Keira mumbled silently as she felt she was on cloud nine, being locked up in the strong and wide arms of her man.
He would end up becoming her man for sure. 'People might think I am being redundant,' she chuckled inwardly. But she wouldn't get tired of being redundant if it came to Zach.
'Hmm, how long should I keep on acting?' She mused, obviously, she was enjoying everything, taking absolute advantage of the situation at hand.
She could hear Zach's irregular breathing and thumping of his heart.
'What the heck? Is this for real, or am I just hallucinating?' She asked inwardly.
Then, she heard Zach whisper her name.
"Keira."
"Keira."
"Keira."
It was like music to her ears, but she knew it was him, trying to wake her up.
She bit her lip and tightly closed her eyes. She stayed like that for so long that she actually indeed dozed off because of the warmth she felt in Zach's arms. She felt secure and comfortable.
"Keira…" Zach murmured.
He blew out air when he heard Keira's stable breathing.
She seemed to be in a deep sleep.
"How can you peacefully sleep like this?" Zach muttered.
Something was bothering him, and for goodness sake, this scenario was a complete torment for him.
But then, the worst part started when Keira moved as if she was climbing onto her bed, but in reality, she was climbing on Zach, causing him to end up lying on his back on the sofa while Keira was on top of him.
"Oh. My. God." He gasped when he felt how Keira snuggled her face on his neck.
Zach felt that he was in a complete tribulation at that moment and it seemed that the time almost stopped ticking for him.
At that moment he realized, getting close to Keira was too dangerous, so he must keep his distance as much as he could.
Keira Chan was trouble...
...….
"I think Field Marshal Chan is biased toward Zach. What if something happens inside?" John commented.
"Field Marshal Chan trusts Zach and that man will absolutely respect Miss Keira and treat her well at any cause. And you are wrong. Field Marshal Chan is not biased but is a father who simply trusts his daughter very much." Jim said as he drank his glass of juice.
Both him and John were not allowed to drink any alcohol, especially, if they were with Miss Keira. They must remain alert at any time.
"How long do you think we have to wait here?" John asked. He wanted to leave at that very moment and take the girls home. He kept his eyes on May's side because Zach's friend had approached the two girls.
"Stop glaring at the man, Jim. He's a Lieutenant, and you yourself saw his profile. He can be trusted with the girls." Jim said, laughing.
"I'm not glaring, Senior, just keeping watch. Miss Keira will kill us if something bad happens to her friends, that's why..." John tried to explain, but obviously, it was an excuse.
"Oh, really? That's why you let Drey be taken out a moment ago? As far as I can recall, Drey is also one of Miss Keira's friends, no?" Jim teased.
They saw Drey getting out with Lieutenant Kang and he was about to call for one of his men to follow, but John laughed at him and said, "Let Drey be a man, Senior..."
John got what his Senior was trying to point out so he no longer reacted and just remained quiet because he was guilty.
