Chapter 36 - Self-control (2/2)

He blew out his cheeks as he contemplated whether he should sleep beside her. He was not worried about her getting angry if she found out. He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself once she was near him.

”Self-control, Xander...” He murmured, reminding himself before he lay down next to Yera.

He laid on his back beside her without moving at all and was just looking at the ceiling. He managed to do that only for a few minutes before he was itching to move and decided to lie on his side, so he could look at Yera.

His heart leaped when Yera also unexpectedly moved sideways, facing him, at the same time. She looked so peaceful in her sleep.

Xander could not resist the temptation to touch her delicate and angelic face and raised his hand to caress her well-shaped eyebrows, her eyes that were closed with long and curly lashes, and the line of her prominent and pointed nose as if he was memorizing every part of her face.

Then he touched her red and kissable lips, and Xander felt something had ignited within him. He longed to taste those lips once more.

'Self-control!' An internal voice reminded him.

But Yera surprisingly moved closer to him. In her sleep, she was propelled toward the warmth emanating from Xander's body. And, Xander, without a second thought, pulled her closer into his warm embrace.

He kissed her forehead and whispered, ”Goodnight, my darling…”

Then he drew out a long breath before he closed his eyes. He tried to meditate to regulate the throbbing of his heart. And, most importantly, to control the swelling of his little buddy down below.

'Yeah, good luck with that…' Xander could almost hear his little buddy mocking him.

He would have to practice his self-control really well because he really did not want to take her when she had not given him her heart yet. Xander was willing to wait for Yera to come to him on her own will no matter how long it would take. Because he wanted her everything; her mind, her body, and most notably, her heart.

His face suddenly twitched as he mused, 'I won't have you taken away from inside her heart, Bernard. But can I somehow squeeze in?'

Then he wondered if it would really take a long time to squeeze himself into her heart… 'Can you take my side and help me just this once?' He asked Bernard, hoping somehow that he would hear his plea…

After a few more minutes of exercising self-restraint, Xander managed to calm himself and fell asleep.
