Capítulo 14: Irresistible

I woke up the next day feeling relaxed and full of life but then, I felt a strong arm grip my back and my face was against a hard yet comfortable surface.

Looking up, I saw his beautiful face. His jaw, his nose, his lips everything was too perfect for a man who is titled a monster.

Working of their own free will, my hands stretched out to touch his features but they stopped midway. What am I thinking? What is wrong with my composure lately?

I dropped my hand but it was caught by a large palm causing me to blink twice. He was awake!

"Why did you stop?" his bold yet alluring voice jolted me back from my trance. His eyes were still closed and his voice sounded half awake.

"I... I wasn't planning on doing anything." I replied uncertain if I even knew what I was saying. Of course, I wanted to do something, I wanted to touch this ethereal face that looked like the face of a god.

"Then why is your heart beating so fast wife?" he finally opened his eyes and like the sun, it brightened up his entire face. Face? It brightened up his entire existence and mine as well. Those eyes of his were his charm and the beauty I must say, felt contagious.

I didn't realize I was holding my breath when his eyes came to my view and this caused me to fall into a trance I didn't want to wake up from. Oh! Snap out of it Ayla, don't be so charmed by mere physical looks.

Avoiding the question, I tried to get out of bed but then, he pulled me back and I fell on his strong muscle chest. My tiny petite body could not be compared to his well-chiselled abs.

I blinked twice when I looked at him and the space between his brow creased. He leaned back and pinched it before looking back at me and for a moment, I thought I heard him say, "Why do you look so beautiful?"

"Huh?" I looked at him quizzically and he lifted his well-arced brow.

"Where do you think you're going?" he put up a stern face and for a moment, I thought I was going to get scolded.

"I wanted to make some tea." I made up an excuse but I got an even more stern look for him.

"I will have the maids do that." I couldn't understand why he was being overly protective. Could it be because of what happened yesterday?

"You don't have to worry about it. I can do it myself." I insisted but the glare he gave made me hush.

"Just lay down for a while longer." he pulled me into his embrace and enveloped me in a warm hug. This was awkward because no man had ever touched me like this before.

I pursed my lips and looked awkwardly up at him. "I... I want to take a bath..."

I had barely finished my statement when he cut me short. "I'll do that for you..." his expression after that looked like he didn't know that that was what I wanted to say and this made the room fall silent.

Our eyes were glued to each other and I couldn't tear my eyes away. Even he continued to stare at me and after a few moments, he tore his eyes from mine and his gaze went down to my lips and I couldn't help but stare at his as well. They were tiny yet pink like that of a baby girl.

The room became intense and Gerard stared at Ayla's lips with only one intention in mind. To devour them. To kiss her till she's breathless, sucking and gently biting until he had had enough.

'Damn Ayla, why do I feel different towards you?' no girl had ever made Gerard this crazy before. To him, every human was a toy and love was a distraction.

There were other females in his pack and other packs but he never found any of them interesting. In fact, he never spared them a second look. But Ayla was different. The young innocent girl always made him want her more and more every day and her innocence made her look like a white dove to him. Clean and spotless. It felt like one of his servants had secretly slipped a love potion in his food that made Ayla irresistible to him.

Sleeping with her to protect her was just an excuse yesterday he just wanted to be with her and know what it felt like to have her warm body close to his.

Gerard tore his gaze from my lips and adjusted my waist so that our bodies could be closer "Just stay a little longer after thirty minutes, you can do as you please."

I felt so tiny in his hands as he gripped my waist. I wanted to protest but he wouldn't even let me say a single word.

"But what about the tea?" I wanted to do anything just to get away from his clutches but he simply hugged me tighter and suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." his bold voice resonated in the silent room but his eyes were closed and he looked peaceful as he laid down.

Lucy came in with a white jug and two white mugs on a tray. She silently dropped it on my table and turned towards us bowing before leaving the room.

I tried to move to turn the tea in the teacups before it gets cold but Gerard still didn't let me move.

"I want to..."

"The deal was thirty minutes and if you break the deal I might have to increase the time," he spoke without opening his eyes giving him a majestic yet mysterious aura.

Thirty minutes right, thirty minutes it is. I thought to myself but who would have known that these thirty minutes would be the most adventurous ones of my life with every minute containing different mysteries.
