Chapter 198: Chapter 198
"How could you not think that let
know you have returned? I am not like you to know who it is in the bathroom. I was scared," she poked his bare chest with her index finger for each word she spoke. She had never been more scared than now when she was in a castle full of demons.
"I am sorry," Killian held her hand to stop her from poking him. He pulled her close to him which she didn’t fight against. "I won’t do it again."
"You better not do it again or I won’t speak to you for a whole day. I thought," she started but didn’t finish her sentence.
"I know. I am sorry," he ran his fingers through the softness of her hair to calm her down. He heard the quick pace of her heart which had not cald down yet. Killian didn’t intend to scare her. He went straight to the bathroom to fill it with water before going back to her. "I will be more mindful next ti."
Alia lowered her head, trying to get rid of the fear she felt. They were people like Agramon who she was still worried about even on her wedding night. She didn’t think for a second he would not take the mont when Killian was away to do sothing to her. She felt much better now with Killian’s comfort. She wanted him to always rember that she was different from his kind.
"I am more scared of you at tis than I am of Loki who has a higher chance of killing . Afraid you would attack
with your imaginary claws. I should have just remained in bed and let the wolves eat soone. Am I forgiven or am I to apologize more?" He asked, looking down at her.
"I am still angry but there is no use in not accepting your apology since you have promised to not do it again. The perfect way to get back at you for scaring
is to get into the tub alone. Goodbye," she stepped out of his hold and walked around the side of him to go to the bathroom.
Killian grabbed her arm gently before she got past him. "You do not need to take it so far. I did not intentionally try to scare you. What happened to wanting to be near ?" He asked.
"That is when I am laying in bed with you," Alia stated which she considered to be obvious.
"Alia, I proposed the water to cool off with the intention of us being together," said Killian.
"And you have ruined it. I am not going to reward you even when you accidentally ss up. It is not like you need to cool down when your kind enjoys the heat. How long do you plan to hold onto ?" She asked, looking at where he held her. Alia was only toying with him and would invite him in after he had a mont to dwell on just how much he had upset her.
Killian released her hand as she wanted and didn’t say another word when she went inside the bathroom on her own, closing the door behind her to show she was not letting him join her.
Alia closed the door, resting back on it the mont it was locked behind her. She planned to count to one hundred and then let him inside. When she moved to wrap the blanket around her body better, sothing in the bathroom caught her eye.
"Of course, I will end up being a jerk," Alia muttered, reaching out for the door handle to open the bathroom door sooner than she expected. "You brought
flowers," she said the mont she opened the door.
Killian was still standing where she left him. He didn’t think she would co back out the second she saw the flowers but he was glad she did.
"Is that why you were late? I feel like I am always the villain when it cos to our relationship. I ruin the good things you do. I was only teasing you. I would have opened the door shortly to make you feel shaken up like I was. I am sorry," she genuinely apologized for being angry in a situation where he did not intentionally try to scare her. "Thank you for the flowers."
"The apology wasn’t needed. I did scare you and you are free to tease
in return. I do not view you as a villain. It was my mistake for not returning to you first before going to the bathroom but I thought of surprising you. Romancing soone isn’t a skill of mine so I thought of doing it by surprising you with followers in the bathroom. It wasn’t easy to find normal flowers in the castle," Killian explained the reason for his late return to their room.
"They are beautiful. We should have more flowers placed around the castle so it is not so depressing. I hope the mont is not ruined too much that you would not want to join ," she said, giving him enough space to walk by her to join her in the bathroom.
"It is not," Killian replied, walking toward Alia to join her in the bathroom.
"Where did you find pants?"
"I went to our closet to get pants before actually leaving the room. I almost ca back to you before I left because it felt like you were panicking about sothing. Care to tell
what was on your mind?" Killian asked.
"I would rather not. It was nothing serious," Alia closed the door behind him, rembering her embarrassing mont when she thought about what her younger self would say if she saw her now.
"What happened to the vow of no secrets between husband and wife?" Killian asked, dipping his hands in the water to see if it was ready for them to get inside.
"In that case, will you tell
what Agramon ant by you not being in the underworld for so punishnt? I didn’t think so," she added when he smiled in response. "I believe there are so things we can keep to ourselves. I am not like other wives to want to know what is always on your mind. It is exhausting. We should promise to tell each other about anything that can harm our lives or any troubles we face. I don’t want to be left in the dark then."
Killian took his hand out of the water he had heated up so it wouldn’t be so cold. He flicked his hand to get rid of the water coating his hand. "Before we got married, was there sothing you kept from ?"
"What could I have kept from you when you can hear everything and you are always lurking in the shadows? As of right now, you have more to hide than I do so the rule is for you," Alia said, walking toward the tub with the blanket still wrapped around her.
Killian glanced at her hand holding up the blanket. He rembered the clear view of her back and buttocks when she first walked toward the bathroom. "You should know going forward that I enjoy the sight of the back of you just as much as the front."
Alia didn’t get what he ant at first but when his eyes kept going to where she was holding up the blanket, she finally understood. "I forget how much of a horny bastard you are," she muttered, holding the blanket tighter.
Killian didn’t take any offense to her words considering that it was partially true. He was horny when he was around her and even more so now that they had sex. Tired of standing around doing nothing, Killian got into the tub of warm water first, making himself comfortable, then waited for her to join him. "That blanket will soak up so of the water if you get inside with it," he said, urging her to lose the blanket without directly saying it.
Alia licked her lips which had beco dry and with one pull to get it over with, she removed the blanket.
Killian was amused by the speed she removed the blanket and hopped into the tub. It was a mystery how she had not fallen in. She had a surprising talent for being fast when she wanted to be. "Why are you sitting all the way over there? Surely, you cannot be afraid to sit on my lap. I have a vivid mory of how much you enjoyed it," he grinned, loving the irritated expression as her nose flared and she glared at him.
Alia playfully splashed water at Killian to get him to stop talking. I am not going anywhere near your lap because I know how I might end up if I do," she replied. One thing would lead to another where she would be crying out his na in this bathroom.
"I promise nothing will happen," Killian held out his hand for her to take and co closer to him.
At this mont, Alia could see how much of a demon Killian was. Eventually, she accepted his hand even though she knew his words were a lie.
