Chapter 114: What Next?
Meredith.
The sound of hushed voices filled my ears, forcing me back to consciousness.
A soft sigh escaped my lips as my eye lids hung heavy, until I heard a familiar female voice.
It belonged to Azul.
I so badly wanted to turn around to see her, but the ache all over my body, especially between my legs, held me back and within a minute, I was dealing a lot.
I realized that Azul was speaking to someone and when I heard Draven’s voice in return I froze. Then memories of last night came flooding back to my head.
The more scenes played in my head, the more my breath seized.
I-I slept with that man? D-Draven?
I pinched myself under the duvet. Hard, until a soft whimper escaped my lips, a sign to get out of that thought and continue sleeping before others found out I was awake.
But in my mind, the thoughts wouldn’t leave me.
I saw disturbing memories which caused my body to shiver, and that spot to ache.
The Moon Goddess had spared no effort in embarrassing me in front of Draven. It wasn’t a surprise since she was known to ruin my life and always add a bit of misery in it every now and then. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
But what I didn’t understand was why Draven slept with me. Definitely I didn’t ask for it, right?
As soon as I thought that, another memory came running through my head.
It was if me, ask... no. Begging Draven to mate with me.
This would have been the perfect time to scream and pull my hair unfortunately, I heard the distance sound of the entrance door shutting, and Draven making his way back into the bedroom.
"Slut." I cursed myself and shut my eyes tightly, refusing to move a muscle.
I remembered how my body had squirmed so much. Under Draven and how he... He—
I couldn’t fnisg the rest of the words stuck in mind. I was far too ashamed for that. And now, I didn’t know who to face Draven
He walked over to the bed, probably staring at me for a moment.
I held my breath, refusing to for a few seconds before slowly exhaling deeply. Then I heard the door towards my right. The bathroom door.
Finally he’s gone.
I sighed in relief, slowly opening my eyes only to see Draven standing right in front of a door.
Then I realized I had been tricked. He hadn’t walked into the bathroom like I had expected instead, he had been standing by the door, waiting to catch h me in my act. And he did.
Draven narrowed his gaze at me before turning to push the door open and entering inside.
The soft thud from the door shutting, had me releasing the deep breath I had been holding.
I didn’t think this man had the opportunity to be so petty.
Obviously, he had no training incurred in him to tell him I needed my space after last night’s shocking events.
He always had a point to prove.
Gradually, my annoyance disappeared and was replaced by lots of heavy overwhelming emotions I didn’t know where to start unravelling from.
I reflected on the wild night, how out of control I had been and the pain that came, still reminding me currently of everything wrong that happened.
I groaned.
I was upset, shocked, furious and then once again, delirious.
I hated myself for relieving last night, how my body gummed to Draven’s, how I had literally begged him over and over again to bed me.
My heat had been overwhelming. It had been nothing like anything I had ever experienced in the past.
As my gaze wandered around the unfamiliar room which probably belonged to Draven, I was reminded of my attempts to hurt myself thinking it would put an end to my wild pheromones last night.
But it had insisted on a man to quench the my lustful hunger last night.
Azul, and the rest had gotten a snippet of my earlier reactions when I went into heat yesterday’s evening. They had been troubled, looking for a way to help me but out of frustration and shame, I had chased them out.
I guesses they were probably left with no choice but to call Draven who had to bring me over to his bedroom on the third floor before helping to settle my needs.
A loud groan escaped my lips as I attempted grabbing a fistful of my silver hair. But Draven had to re-enter the room at this time, forcing our gazes to meet.
His was calm while mine was distorted from pure frustration.
"I ran you a bath. Eat after freshening up. And if you need anything urgently, use the landline at the sitting area. But if you need me, ask anyone to send for me. I will be in the training grounds," Draven said in a serious tone without taking his eyes off me.
He didn’t seem... bothered by last night’s events.
I thought he hated me and would never have touched me even if I begged?
Draven’s actions left me questioning everything I thought I knew about him.
So, what happens to our relationship now?
But I know one thing. I no longer felt like a slut who threw myself at a man, begging him to mate her.
If anything, Draven didn’t treat me like one.
"Have your bath now. Eat your food on time," Draven reminded me with a knot in his brows.
He knew I was lost at some point and had to revisit his reminder.
"Azul brought you a change of clothes. The bag is one the sofa," he continued. "You can stay here for the rest of today if you want."
As soon as he finished delivering his message, he turned and started walking away.
My gaze didn’t follow him, and I didn’t dare to move until I heard him shut the entrance door with an audible thud.
I was relieved I didn’t have to leave his room now that I was awake. I didn’t think I was ready to face my maidservants now.
They probably already knew what had happened between me and Draven.
I couldn’t muster the courage.
I exhaled deeply before trying to sit up. The struggle was brief, but my soft spot ached badly.
I needed to soak in a warm bath so I managed to get off the bed and slowly made my way into Draven’s bathroom.
His mint and cedar wood scent hit my nose. It felt like he was close, and his arms, snaked around my naked waist.
I snapped out of my delusions as soon as I had sank into them and stepped forward.
Holding the edge of the tub, I slowly but painfully claimed into it.
One foot inside the warm water and I felt my body heat up. I released a deep sigh as I carefully sank inside the small pool and rested my back against the tub, slowly shutting my eyes as I let the water down its job.
I tried to reflect on my situation for the last 24 hours to assess myself and failed woefully.
A few minutes in, and my thoughts moved back to the sex with Draven. It had been something else.
Draven was strong, get careful. And then he had been a bit rough all thanks to his energy and speed, evidence of my throbbing spot.
I didn’t dare to close my legs because I couldn’t.
Draven had done me without reservation. H-he was big down there and then he used it to bring me to a world I had never been before.
I wanted more. Shockingly.
My pheromones weren’t flaring. It was just me and my thoughts.
When it was time for me to scrub my body, I realized that I had forgotten my supply in the room even though Draven had taken the pains to remind me about it. Twice.
’To hell with it," I breathed out.
My gaze searched for Draven’s bath items and found them. I struggled to reach out and finally grabbed them without a care.
I used his soap and his sponge to wash my body while praying he would never find out.
But wasn’t being delusional?
That man’s nose was sharp. He would immediately smell himself on me as soon as he enters the room. But I couldn’t give myself time to think about my decision.
I moved his loofah on every inch of my body, including my inner thighs. I scrubbed my body until I was satisfied I was clean.
If Draven gets furious because I used his things, he is free to chase me out of his room, it he could better still kiss my ass.
W-wait a minute! Why would I want that arrogant man to kiss my ass?
But on a second thought, he had actually done more than kiss my ass.
As soon as that particular memory came flooding my mind, I cringed and let out a cry, immediately shutting my eyes.
Draven had sucked me with his tongue. He had practically eaten my cunt with that mouth.
"Ahhh!" I screamed again, my hands flying to my hair.
Then suddenly, I heard a powerful female voice speak from somewhere I couldn’t register immediately.
"You are one noisy fellow. I can’t sleep because you keep thinking about Draven."
I froze.
