Chapter 84
Aurora
“I’ve found her, Dax,” Devin announced before pinning his hazel eyes on embarrassed ones.
My grip tightened on the plate of food as I shuddered under his intense stare.
Blocking the path that I was about to take, I remained in a spot, waiting for him to leave the door.
“Why didn’t you answer us when we called you? You scared us. We thought something happened to you,” he said. From his facial expression, I could decode that he was not pleased with my silence.
I heaved a sigh as I tried to think of an excuse. “I was…sleeping.”
His brows creased as he leaned closer to me. “I’ve known you for almost a month and you don’t sleep by this time,” he said in a gruff tone.
Despite how unfriendly and rough his voice was, it filled me with goosebumps.
I shifted uncomfortably as his presence seemed to affect me, making me unable to think well. “Well, I decided to sleep,” I said, smiling nervously.
Silence ensued between us as we waited for Dax.
My heart began to pound against my chest at our uncomfortable closeness, making sweat gather around my forehead.
“And where were you taking that food to?” he inquired, pointing at the plate with a suspicious look plastered on his face.
My breath hitched in shock, but I was quick to compose myself. The last thing I wanted was for him to sniff my lies.
Devin could pass as a human lie detector machine.
“To the dining room,” I muttered, giving him a nervous smile before resting my eyes on him.
“You think I’m stupid?” He smirked, covering the space between us. “Your body betrays your words. You are still embarrassed because of what happened in the bathroom.”
I froze in shock before regaining myself. “Of course not. It’s already in the…past-”
“One thing you should always remember is that I can sniff the truth.” He placed his large hand on my face, cupping my cheek and stroking it with his thumb. “And it’s obvious that you are lying.”
Dang it!
“You are tense. Relax and take a deep breath.”
I almost melted at his touch. His fingers were rough, but they felt so good against my skin.
My heart raced fast as I shut my eyes, relaxing my face against his palm.
No, Aurora, you are not supposed to be doing that!
My subconscious frowned at my actions.
Reluctantly, I peeled my face from his palm, looking away from him.
“There you are,” Dax’s voice jolted me, making me jump in shock.
I pulled away from Devin, maintaining a distance between us.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Come, let’s eat!” He ordered, leaving no room for excuses.
There was something about Devin that made me feel like a little girl.
He was like a tough boss and I was the naive employee.
It made me feel little and I found it attractive.
Dax was the first to walk to the table while Devin walked beside me.
Having close contact with the brothers made me nervous.
It took me a great deal of self-control not to trip and fall.
I halted suddenly as Devin leaned closer to me.
“I think you are very sexy,” he whispered against my ears, winking at me before joining Dax on the table.
Caught off balance, I gasped in shock as his words kept playing in my head.
“Sit,” he ordered, pointing at the chair opposite him.
I placed my food on the table, pulling the chair before sitting on it.
Silence fell as we dug into our food hungrily.
Concentrating on the food was hard as I felt their eyes boring into me.
The more I tried to forget about the bathroom scene, the more it replayed in my head on repeat.
The image of the brother’s widened eyes flooded my head.
I should have let them leave before rinsing my face.
To even think that I just shaved!
I felt like the ground should open and swallow me.
I lifted my head, peeking to see if I would catch them staring at me.
As expected, Dax’s eyes rested on me…no, on my boobs.
It was at that moment I was conscious of my choice of clothes.
I was clad in a v-neck crop that exposed my cleavage and biker short.
It didn’t take long before I caught Devin stealing glances at me.
Holy shit!
My heartbeat quickened and I began to feel drawn towards the brothers.
Keep yourself together, Aurora!
A part of me felt uncomfortable while another part of me enjoyed the way they drool over my body.
My mind was a mess of emotions.
A strange feeling washed over me, making me press my thighs together.
I held a firm grip on my fork, swallowing hard as I tried to maintain composure.
Damn, these two hot guys!
The more I pressed my thighs together, the more a tingling sensation spread all over my body.
My breathing became harsh and I frequently bit my lower lip.
The atmosphere became unusually tense as we ate in silence. The only sound that filled the air was the sound of the fork against the plate and our harsh breaths.
I guess I wasn’t the only one having their strange feelings.
I cleared my throat, dropping my fork loudly against the plate.
“I think I will finish the rest of the food in my room,” I announced, standing to my feet with the plate of food in my hands.
Neither of the brothers responded as they drooled over my body.
While Dax’s eyes didn’t leave my erect nipples that poked through my crop top, Devin’s eyes hovered all over my body, undressing me.
Unable to control myself, I rushed out of the dining table to my room. I shut the door behind me before putting the plate on the floor.
I slumped on the bed, burying my head in the pillow before screaming into it.
It was at that moment I noticed a strange slippery feeling between my thighs.
I lowered my shorts, pushing my pants aside as I dipped my fingers into my vulva.
I was already dripping wet.
