33 Chapter 31 (1/2)

The bathroom!

It definitely had cold and hot waters!

I'm a genius!

Evangeline immediately went back to the bedroom and was about to rash inside the bathroom when she caught a glanced at Eric who was sweating and panting profusely, closing his eyes tight.

He seems to be suffering.

Evangeline immediately went towards the bathroom, but instead for the cold and hot water, she came out with a small tub full of warm water.

She laid the tub on the bedside table and ransacked Eric's closet once more.

There was just a number of clothes inside it, and most were already turning muddy in color from the repeated wash and wear. She grabbed a simple shirt and sat beside Eric on the bed.

Evangeline didn't waste any second, she pulled off Eric's shirt. And since Eric seemed to be half conscious and weak, he didn't know what was happening and went along with the movements.

Removing Eric shirt wasn't that hard as Evangeline thought it would be, but she sure didn't expect that the hardest was after she removed his garment.

She had seen Asher before, shirtless, parading inside her unit, and had seen Daniel's naked upper body one time when they went for a date on the beach. Both men's naked bodies didn't bother her much – but not this man.

She didn't know why her heart suddenly hummed excitedly nor why her breathing turned labored in pants.

Compared to Asher's strong and bulky pecks or Daniel's well-toned muscles, Eric have lean, well-defined biceps, hard sculpted chest, and those subtle yet s.e.xy abs, and that alluring tantalizing V line from his hip bone going towards his….

*gulp…

Evangeline couldn't help herself as she traced her fingers on that toned chest, gradually going down. Tracing every contour and line of his well-defined abs. Tracing the path of his hips until she felt him shivered when her fingers were about to grazed that off-limit private part of his groin.

”S-stop….”

Evangeline blinked and instantly raised her eyes to meet those silver poles she loved so much.

Evangeline beamed a naughty smile when she saw that Eric's eyes were still half closed while his breathing turned even more rigid by the second, and coupled by that weak and flushed face – he looked absolutely adorable!

”You have a delicious body, Eric.”

Evangeline only grinned when Eric's face turned bewildered then frowned then red and then suddenly rosy, but then he closed his eyes and slumped on the bed – unconscious.

The stimulation and heating of his body was too much for him to handle at the moment!

Evangeline chuckled and resumed to take care of him, but not before she brought out her phone and snapped her camera for remembrance later.

Evangeline gently wiped Eric's face with a warm towel, as she did so, she admired the handsome face that was hidden beneath his messy hair. She didn't even know that she was holding her breath as she continued to wiped his skin, but then her fingers slightly trembled when the warm towel caressed a faint scar.

Now that Evangeline's focus was on Eric's body and not on those muscles, she noticed that Eric's skin was covered with scars. Some healed while some fresh. There were also bruises and sc.r.a.pes.

Evangeline frowned and felt anger rising inside her. She knew that some of the wounds came from Eric's job at the construction, but she was sure that most came from human hands.

She bit her lip and let out a deep breath, then she resumed to finished wiping off Eric's naked upper part before she patiently and effortly put on a new shirt on him.

After all was done, Evangeline had a bead of sweat on her face as she went once more towards the bathroom. This time, when she came out, she carried three towels. One soaked in cold water while the other two were dipped in hot water.

She placed the cold towel on Eric's forehead and wrapped the other two hot towels around each of his foot.

After she was finished, she gave a slight hump of accomplishment from her handiwork and proceeded to grabbed the medicine that was laying on the bedside table.

She eyed the pills and the gla.s.s of water as her lips curved in a mischievous smirk.

Considered this as an honor, Eric. Once you wake up, I'll make sure that you'll pay me dearly.

She popped the medicine into her mouth and drank the water before she held Eric's nape with one hand to slightly raised him up while her other hand pinched his chin to pry open his mouth and covered his lips with hers.

She stuck her tongue and carefully fed him the medicine, being careful not to make him choke.

Eric was still half conscious, yet he felt that something soft and hot and… sweet… was pressing his lips. He unconsciously slipped his tongue to taste it.

Evangeline's eyes flung open and looked at the man, but he appeared to be asleep. She gradually closed her eyes as she didn't mind his tongue playing with hers.
