The shock was evident in Rachel's eyes, she looked like she was going to cry, but no, she wasn't going to be this scared of a man she barely knows anything about.
Taking a deep breath, she made a step out of the cupboard where she had been pinned, and at once, the doors opened and Adrian walked right in. He seemed to be avoiding her, thus, awkward, but then, she was startled and moved backward. Adrian had a handful of towel and male clothes in his hands, but then, lifting his head up, he said, "I saved a t-shirt for you. Sorry, it was in my car, so I had to send my driver to get it for me. You will be wearing this for the night, now, go and bath, you stink," Adrian spat out. Rachel gasped. "You can't order me around just because you..." she started her sentence but shot her mouth with immediate effect. The shock that sprayed through her face was evident, and the mere fact that it got to her head right now, it made it even difficult for her to conclude her sentence. Adrian is a man with a very cold temper, he knew he could make the lady submit it he wanted to, but then, playing a little game with her might be fun. Pacing the floor to the bed, Adrian quickly puts his stuff on the bed, and making long strides towards Rachel, he saw the fear in her eyes. Rachel knew when to be startled from this man's looks and as she attempted to run, it ended in a failure when the young man swiftly grasped her waist. "Not too fast, baby," he said and at once, she flinched in distress. "Let go off me, you beast," Rachel blurted out. At the mention of the word beast, Adrian lost it and fastened his grip on her waist. "You lady, you are going to respect me," Adrian muttered out. He didn't want to hurt her, but then, his anger always came to the verge with her breaking his nerves one after the other. "This lady has a name, and that is Rachel," she said. This is actually the first time she was calling out her name, and for a moment, Adrian just looked at how beautiful she was, and the name complimented her to perfection, that was absolutely so beautiful. "Rachel?" Adrian called out, and then, the slowest of smiles pressed across her cheeks, that was a genuine one causing them extreme greatness. The tingling sensation Rachel felt hearing Adrian pronounce her name is enough to make her stare in wonder, that was absolutely beautiful, and in most cases, very fun seeing. "Yes, Rachel, and now, will you stop looking at me like that?" she questioned staring directly into her eyes. "Like how?" Adrian shot out. "As if I was some piece of candy you wanted to eat," she said. At the mention of those words, the shock that was filled in her countenance was just too much when Adrian said to her blankly, "Candy? are you kidding me? if you do not mind, can you just go and get a bath? you stink. Make sure you scrub the dirt out of your face too," he said, shooting the words directly into Rachel's face. He saw the pain in her eyes, he wanted to quickly apologize, but his ego wouldn't let him do so. "Are you this blunt with every lady you buy at auctioned sales?" Rachel spat out blinking severally not to burst out in a fit. Adrian had started pacing the floor, but this time, he walked back to the lady's side, using his index finger to quickly grasp her chin with it, and lifting it up to face him. "You wouldn't talk to me like that in any way, Rachel," Adrian said in suppressed anger. His deep emerald eyes were swiftly changing colors to cold ones, it is evident that he wasn't bluffing, and Rachel knew better but to back off, but for some reason, she didn't. "If not?" she shot directly to his face. Adrian knew his anger would snap anytime from now, but then, he grit his teeth and used his free hand to hold her protectively around her waist, thus, pulling her towards himself. The closeness was too much, it was even evidence that it wouldn't go lower than that but damn, he had to frighten the lady to put fear on her heart."You don't want to know what I might do to you when I am angry right?" Adrian asked staring directly into her eyes. Seeing that dirty smirk on his face without changing the expressions of his cold green eyes, caused the lady to jump in a fight because she seemed to have one thought running through her mind. The fear made her start to wriggle and act as the world had come to an end."Holy crap! you wouldn't do that, Adrian, no you wouldn't," she said starting to disengage herself from the man's grasps, but that was impossible, Adrian didn't give her the chance to run away as she has planned to. "What is that?" the young man asked raising his brows quizzically at her. Rachel had now become as white as paper, and staring intently into the man's grim face, she knew exactly when to start talking and making amendments for her ways. "You would transform into a big bad wolf and have me for dinner. Is that the kind of punishment you give to the ladies you've bought? is that why you are the most feared alpha in the Dark Moon Park? will you..." she stopped when Adrian cut in.Rachel was ranting and she knows very well about that, but whatever she was going to say next was now hers, she wasn't even going to make it unknown to her because it would get her off the hook. "That is just so ridiculous, but I might consider it as an option, Rachel," he said teasingly.Moving slowly to him, he went down on his toes whispering in her ears if wanted something to eat so that he could go and get it.He smiled and told him not to bother about her and to instead get something for the kids as they are most valuable at the moment."You have not eaten anything since morning right and that is why you are feeling so weak", he said holding her hand.Feeling his hand on hers, his heartbeat up faster than the usual heartbeat she always had.Her dizziness immediately disappeared and her attention was focused on Axel as their eyes met simultaneously.He who was tired like a dead horse, smiled when he was witnessing what was happening between his friend and Bethany, and he was happy that Axel was able to love again despite everything that he had said.catching a glimpse of how happy he was, his thought narrowed to her and the situation that she was going through at the moment.Though he was inclined toward the possibility of her being involved in some harmful dealin
Adrian had carried the lady in his arms, that is awesome, he loves the manner in which the lady had slopped in his arms, it was awkward to think in that way.Before he had the chance to open his mouth and say anything, there was a knock from behind and thewas e docto they had sent for. Immeditely, He was quick in dismissing the maids as he didn't want or suffocate the lady. That wasn't too important right now."You are welcome Dr will like you to check on her, besides, her legs had sustained a terrible accident and she can't walk," he explained.Nodding his head, Dr."If you do not mind, I will check on her immediately," he said ash he placed his bag that he had brought along with him.Ruby on her part starting shedding fresh tears, she had very reason to cry because she hates doctors so much and In case Xavier doesn't know it, It might turn out to be something very difficult to ha dle without crying. Swallowing very hard, the lady didn't know what had come over her, she found out tha
The ride to his house was a quiet one, they barely said anything to one another as the car rode to his house. He kept stealing glances at the lady, it is obvious that he didn't quiet know what is going on. Each time she sees his eyes on her, she secretly loved the fact that the man was picking on her. That was. awesome, she truly admired how they all acted Iike kids in a hide and seek game, well, that was enough to make her roll her eyes in anxiety.Throughout the journey, she felt sleepy to an extent that she couldn't keep her eyes on the road and finally, she fell asleep in the car. It was kind of cool, she loved it, but then, what more could be done about it.The car finally pulled out in his villa located in Bomaka. It was a government residential area, the security here was top notch, more than anything someone could expect of such areas, and that was totally cool. Looking at the beautiful lady sleeping, his first thought was to wake her up, but on a second note, he decided to ca
Him and Adrian were outside and he saw that they needed to go back to the office so that she could get her stuff before bringing her back.Adrian had left in a hurry so much that, she had not taken her things from the office and when her boss said that to her, the first thing she said was, "What about her?" "She will be alone here at the hospital. He is with her and so she won't be hurt by anyone." He responded. She gave him a suspicious stare before saying that the didn't trust him."What was that?" He asked as though he had not listened to her but he's being scared, said, "Nothing, I said nothing, Sir," Hose exclaimed immediately with her eyes, looking away."Yeah, I thought so too cuz if you had said something I would have given you a server punishment. So now, get into the car." She could feel the anger in his voice and there was no way that she wanted to get on his nerves. Rachel, loved the power that he was having from doing what he did and thought he was never going to hurt
"We need to talk, Rachel, two wrongs can't make one right, we seriously need to discuss about these things out please. I know that my manner of approach at the beginning wasn't the best, that is why I am saying sorry," Adrian spat out. The sound of his voice was enough prove toshow that he is so damn serious but to her, barely meant anything to her. "Cut off that speech of yours, Adrian, it serves no good purpose," the young lady shot out as she felt very angry over the fact him had stated out these things. Hendrix sulked on his breathe for quite some times as he kept his expression sullen. It was quite ridiculous that she had to speak to him in this manner, but then, he had to shake his head as if in denial to his own mind."Rachel..." He called out but felt silent instantly, scared of the fact that the lady might even say or do anything out of the norm. Well, Rachel wasn't in the slightest mood to talk to Adrian, in fact, she looked the less unbothered about what she had to trul
Ava worried about Sophie, she didn't want the child to hate her father over trivial issues, especially when she practically found no cause doing so. Taking a very deep breath, she decided to lead it to slip out of her mouth as that was important. At once, the door slipped open and a doctor walked into the ward, he was swiftly followed by a young man behind him, and that was Hendrix, in fact, there was no arguing on that point. It made her want to jump with excitement, but on second thought, she decided to let it go because it is not worth it at all, of course not. "Ms. Andrews," the doctor's sullen face came in. Although Ava had the intentions of talking, all she did was to bite her lower lip as If denying the fact that she was being addressed to. When no reply from her side was taken, the doctor continued, giving the message he wanted to pass by."The results of the ultra sound are here," the doctor said. At once, it made the young lady be very attentive as she waited for the do
