All Chapters of My Bestie’s Dad Likes Me Wet : Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

NINETEEN NALA POV I was almost asleep when I heard the two knocks. It was quiet enough that if I had actually been asleep I would have missed them entirely which meant whoever was on the other side was giving me the option to miss them and that already told me something.I lay there and stared at the dark ceiling.I was not going to get up. There was absolutely no reason for me to get up. I was warm and horizontal and I had spent the better part of the last hour successfully not thinking about Ethan or five hundred dollars or the ceiling or a certain pair of mismatched eyes and I was not going to throw all of that progress away by opening a door at whatever time this was.I got up.Ivin was standing in the corridor in a dark henley and sweats and he looked like a man who had not slept and had been walking the building for an hour and had ended up at my door and was not fully sure what to do about that. One hand was braced on the doorframe. He was looking at me with that face except

TWENTY ONEIVIN POVEthan always did have terrible timing.Some things apparently did not change.I heard the commotion from two corridors away and I already knew before I turned the corner, something in the specific frequency of my men's voices telling me whatever was at the entrance was not a threat they could categorize cleanly and uncategorized threats were the only kind that made them sound like that. I had been awake anyway, I had not slept properly since we moved everyone into this location and I was not going to pretend the reasons were entirely operational.I turned the corner and took in the scene in one pass in a way I had trained myself to do a long time ago. Three of my men with weapons drawn but lowered and Firecracker Nala standing between them and the door like she had appointed herself the wall. Then Ethan. Ethan with hands loose at his sides now, looking like the last few weeks had treated him exactly the way he deserved to be treated.Ethan who shouldn’t be anyw

TWENTY THREENALA POVI couldn't stop replaying the look of disappointment that played on ivin’s face as the car drove off. Even as the car sped away and the distance between us grew and the underground building disappeared into the dark behind us. Because in the half second before Ethan's hand closed around my arm and pulled me in I saw Ivin's face do something I had spent weeks waiting for it to do and would have paid a lot to see under different circumstances.It cracked.Even though it was for a brief second, it was there. Something that looked like it had been sitting behind all that controlled nothing for a long time and had chosen the exact worst moment to surface. But then the door closed and the car was moving and the expression was gone and so was he and now I was left in a moving vehicle with the image of it burned somewhere behind my eyes where I could not erase it.I pressed my back against the seat and tried to breathe even though the car was choking with the cigarett

TWENTY FIVENALA POVI came back to consciousness hearing a man's voice doing that thing voices do in church, that low practiced holy drone that sits somewhere between reading and boring you out, and my first thought before I even opened my eyes was that I was dreaming about the world's most boring sermon, I mean this is why I usually avoid churches.My second thought was that the back of my head was absolutely killing me and my third thought, the one that made everything else irrelevant, was why can't I move my hands to touch the throbbing spot at the back of my head?.I kept my eyes shut one more second.I tried to connect the dots while listening to the voice still speaking loudly.But underneath it I could hear breathing and low background shuffles, a lot of it like it was roomful.Then something flickered at the edge of my vision even through closed eyelids, whatever it is, it was warm and orange and unsteady, in addition to that something heavy and uncomfortably structured was w

TWENTY SEVENNALA POVOkay so all the windows came in from the back of the chapel, one after the other like someone had made a list and was working through it methodically and I had maybe two seconds of sitting in my chair watching glass catch candlelight on its way to the floor before the whole room decided it was done being a wedding and became something else entirely.The seated crowd went first, pews emptying faster than I have ever seen humans move voluntarily.Some dropped flat on the floor in fear, some were running, I saw someone taking a full boot to the face in the stampede and honestly that was the least of anyone's problems right now. The priest hit the floor so fast I wasn't sure if someone pushed him or if he made that decision independently and either way good for him, smart man, I wished I could join him except I was still tied to a chair in a wedding dress which remained the funniest and most humiliating situation I had ever been in and I had been in some situations.
