115 Desperately In love (1/2)

Veronica woke up from a wet dream and she turn her head. She felt something odd so she woke herself and found him between her legs. She almost scream but he hold her and continue on what he's doing. After he's done, she was breathless and he crawl to her and kiss her lips passionately.

Her eyes widens and she was worried that he had seen the wound on her thighs. After that hot kiss, he goes back to the other side of the bed and stare up at the ceiling. She was still panting from what he did and she look at him. He look worried and stressed.

”Are you okay?” She suddenly asked. He didn't answer her and just stare at the ceiling. She reach her panties and put it on then she went to the kitchen and grab a glass of water. Damn it, this man is making her regret everything.

She got startled when he appear behind her. He took her glass and fill it with water. He drank it all and put it down. He then took her and put her back on the bed. He ripped her clothes and then hold her right arm.

”Now, tell me. How did this happen to you?” He sound mad but he manage to keep hid voice low.

”It's nothing.” She pull her arm away.

”And this?” He hold her thigh where she has a band wrapped around it.

”It's nothing.” She said it calmly.

”Nothing?” he asked sarcastically. ”Did you say that you got all of these over nothing?”

”What's your deal?” she couldn't hold her annoyance anymore. He's over reacting and damn this man! Making her regret everything. She smack his chest. ”Don't care for me anymore!” He sat down on the bed and just let her hit his chest.

”How can I stop caring?” He ask her, his voice broken and he stare at her with a broken heart. Her eyes widens and she look back at him with her piercing eyes. ”It's been over six months since we've been together. I try not to care anymore but I just couldn't. My heart ache whenever you look tired and whenever you rubbed your ankles because of the damn heels that you keep wearing!”

She didn't know how to react but to lean on the headboard and watch his sad expression gazing at her, begging her not to hurt him. She feel guilty like a criminal. She has never been guilty for killing bad guys but this man wasn't a bad guy. And like she was torturing him.

”Do you think that I choose to fall in love, Veronica?” He asked her. She didn't answer him and let him talk. ”I never choose this but we… Lawson's. Once we fall in love—we give ourselves and heart whole to the one. And I gave it to you—yet you keep breaking my heart. So please don't get hurt.”

She was once again, dumbfounded. She didn't know what to say but…

”I'm sorry.”

”Don't say it!” He said it aloud. ”Don't say it…” he lower his voice and scoop her cheek. ”It doesn't matter if I was hurt. What matters to me is you… not to ever get hurt.” He kiss her nose. ”Okay? So tell me, who gave you those?”

”I—I just slipped.”

”Let me check.” She hold his hand.

”No.” That action, he knows that she's hiding it from him. He didn't force her so he went to the wardrobe and pick his shirt that he always left. He ripped the rest of the dress so he could remove it and put it on her.

”Go back to sleep.” He said and tuck her in.

”How can I go back to sleep if you are the one who wake me up?”

”I'm sorry.” He kiss her forehead and he sat down on the sofa.

”Why are you sitting there?”

”I will just make sure that you don't go anywhere.” He said. ”The last time you left, you got those wounds.”

She lay down sideways facing him. She look back at him and try to read his expression. But he was now calm and expressionless. Like he was a boring person. Though it was dark inside the room and only the dim lights from the corner of the room was open she could still see his face.

”I don't know why you do that but—could you please just sleep?”
