Chapter 69: Testing His Patience {2}
My heartbeat was colliding and I didn’t dare look away from William. He didn’t look angry but I could feel it, I could see the storm brooding in his eyes... I could see it in his aura, it was too wild. Enough to send a lion running for the hills.
"I-I’m in bed" feigning ignorance? Really Ava? Is that the best you can co up with? I ntally scolded myself. But I was at a loss for options, the last ti I faced an angry William it did not go well.
"You have been avoiding
all day" he was blunt again, narrowing his eyes at
like he was trying to have a read on my emotions, if he’s trying that much that ans I wasn’t showing much emotions to begin with.
"No, I wasn’t" I bit my bottom lip, I wavered there and I’m certain he senses it. He looked to the side and ran his hands through his beautiful hair, dear gods! This man was spectacular and I was suddenly reminded of our session last night and I blushed, unable to stop myself from doing so.
So much for being blank.
"So this is because of what we talked about last night?"
I felt the hurt again, surely he must know that is the reason, William’s clever.
"I’m tired and I want to sleep"
"I thought you... find more comfort in my chambers" wasn’t a reason but a fact.
"I-I do but I want to sleep here" I bite back.
His teeth clenched, why was he suddenly aggravated, he should just order
and tell
to co with him. "Do I have to drag you back with ?"
No... he won’t do that, William didn’t want to order , he wants my opinion.
"I don’t see a need for that. Why should I be in your bed? You do sleep" I dropped my book on the nightstand in an attempt to go to bed.
"I find peace when I listen to your heartbeat"
I froze and regret flushed through , we both found comfort in each other, in bed or anywhere else and we both knew that we both craved it... it would be foolish to hide such feelings.
"You..." I began standing away from the bed. "You made
feel trapped"
Sothing flashed in his eyes but the second I saw it, it was gone.
I leveled my gaze to my feet. "I-I know you have your reason b-" I gasped because he was suddenly before , towering over my height and my chin to et his gaze.
"Yes I have my reason"
I really didn’t want to ask but I couldn’t fight my curiosity. "Why?" I asked softly.
"I will answer only if you will co to my bed"
I frowned, we were bargaining now? "It is just a simple question!" I barked and he raised an eyebrow closing the distance between us until my back t the wall behind .
"I’m already losing so much of my patience with you, the silly thing you did today..." his teeth clenched, "Avoiding ?" he placed a hand above my head and leaned further. "That was a mistake," he added.
I really did anger him. I placed my hand on his palm and gave a slight push or maybe he moved because I wanted to for I knew there was no way I could push through his unnatural physique.
"Fine then, let’s go then," I said carrying my book and walking out of the door without bothering to look back. I marched straight to his chambers and the giant door opened in my presence. I climbed the stairs and sat on his bed. And turned to the entrance William walked through and the doors slamd shut.
"Will you leave after I tell you?" he suddenly asked.
"I don’t plan on leaving
