Capítulo 15: I Want A Pillow
Tyrone's strong arms firmly held her waist and shoulder. The man was a gentleman through and through.
Tyrone whispered, "Tell me where I should drop you off."
He inwardly sighed. The man knew that Rained had completely dragged him into this situation, yet he did it anyway. He frowned a little at the thought that somehow, she knew how to wrap him around her fingers.
Raine chuckled while meeting his intense gaze. "I don't want to go home. Feel free to bring me to your home instead," she whispered before she passed out. Raine finally let herself relax in his presence as her head drooped.
Before she could slip out from his hold, Tyrone quickly made a move. In one swift motion, he lifted Raine and carried her in his arms. He inwardly cursed as he grabbed Raine's keys off her table.
His body stiffened when he felt Raine's arms wrapping around his neck. She buried her face into the crook of his neck, her soft and hot breaths dampening his throat so dangerously that he wondered if she knew how much of an effect she had on him and just enjoyed seeing him struggle.
'What a handful you are!' Tyrone mused under his breath.
His throat dried as he felt electric jolts all over his nerves. He could only inhale and exhale deeply to calm his body before walking out of the resto-bar with the dangerous woman in his arms.
'You're in great trouble now…' he thought with another sigh.
Using Raine's car, he brought her into his apartment since Raine was not responding to him. Tyrone wasn't interested in snooping around the woman's belongings in her car's compartment to find an ID if she had one. He didn't think he'd want to bring her to her home and introduce himself if she lived with her family.
More than that, he was not even sure whether or not she was passed out for real, sleeping or just acting. Tyrone assumed that she was interested in knowing where he lived. He could only sigh in frustration while driving.
The two of them soon arrived at the building where he owned an apartment. He parked the car and went out to open the door on the passenger's side.
"Raine," he called her for the first time. He stared at her for a moment. While her eyes were closed, he noticed her eyes were hazel; the same color she had last night at the strip club. He wondered if it was just contact lenses because he heard how the bloody-eyed hunter had flaming eyes.
The information that his friend Kiran told him, to be accurate.
Well, Tyrone would have to worry about it when it ever came up again in the future. For now, he was concerned about what he was going to do with this sleeping woman. He can take her to his bed, and he'd stay on his couch?
"Raine…" he called again, but there was no response.
Tyrone removed her seatbelt and carried her inside as he headed into his apartment. Opening the door, he walked straight to his bedroom and gently put Raine on his bed.
The sight of the defenseless woman on his bed without a care in the world… it was something he tried hard not to think about. When Raine sleepily stretched her arms, her dress slightly hiked up, revealing her fair, shapely thighs.
Exhaling loudly, he quickly moved to get some of his things to take a quick shower due to the heat for some reason. A cold shower would help him cool off both his mind and body.
It didn't take him long to shower in the bathroom. Once he was done and changed into a new pair of pants and shirt, he stepped out while still drying his hair with a towel. He turned to look at his bed to check on Raine, and nearly flinched at the sight of the woman awake and out of the bed.
"Shi*t!" Tyrone cursed and looked at her standing incredibly close to him. His heart almost jumped out of his chest!
There was no response from her.
"You startled me!" he burst, staring at Raine. She stood there near him, and yet didn't do a single thing. He frowned when she did not say a word. Tyrone moved closer, cursing inwardly as he noticed that her eyes were still closed.
"Are you sleepwalking?!" he murmured in disbelief.
No response. Tyrone shook his head and concluded that Raine was indeed sleepwalking. Even while the woman was asleep, she knew exactly how to bother him. He held Raine's shoulders to turn her around.
"Let's get back to bed, shall we?" he muttered with a sigh. However, Raine did not move or budge at all. And to Tyrone's horror, she removed her clothes in one swift motion. She allowed her dress to fall on the floor, and she did all of this while still asleep.
"What the heck?" Tyrone whispered in a hitched breath as he could not help but look at her from head to toe. His gaze roamed all over her skin and body, and the man bit down on his lip. He was too dumbfounded and did not expect what happened next.
Raine spun around and blatantly pulled his shirt out from him so easily.
'What is wrong with you?' he scolded himself as his body stayed frozen throughout the process. He watched her put his t-shirt on her body before turning back to his bed like she owned it!
"Seriously?" Tyrone whispered and followed her on the bed to see if she was awake and just playing a prank on her. He looked at her, and even leaned down to see if she was sleeping and heard her breathing.
"Stop that, and let's sleep. I want a pillow, and your body will do," Raine muttered with eyes closed as she pulled Tyrone by force, slumping his body beside her. She quickly snuggled herself in his arms.
