me, her eyes searching mine. I could see the fear and I wondered how long this was going to go on for.
dude’t know how much longer I could see her so out of it.

As Theid het. I couldn’t help but think about how fragile she was. I carried her to her room and lay her on the bed.
As the day wore on, she continued to drift in and out of sleep, her body exhausted from the trauma she had endured. I sat bende het, watching her sleep.

As the night wore on I found myself growing more and more frustrated Every time I tried to leave Kira’s room, she would whine about something claiming to have seen or heard something suspicious.

But she wasn’t convinced “I think I hear footsteps” she said, her eyes wide with fear

But she wasn’t satisfied. “Can you hear that noise?” she asked, her voice rising
Ilutened agam but there was nothing. I was starting to get annoyed. Was she really scared, or was she just trying to keep me
in her room?
“Kira: I need to go and check on some things,” I said, trying to reason with her
But she grabbed my arm, her eyes pleading “What if I’m dead before you get back? How would you be able to kill me yourself she said and she wasn’t wrong
1 sighed and sat back down beside her “Fine. I’ll stay for a bit longer,” I said.
Chapter 122
But as the night wore on, her excuses started to wear thin. I knew I had to get to the bottom of this. Was she really scared, or was she just desperate for attention?
“Kira?” I said, looking her straight in the eye.
“Yes,” she replied, her voice innocent.
“Do you really think someone is out there, or are you just scared of being alone?” I asked, trying not to seem mad.
She looked away as she answered, “L…I don’t know,” she stammered
“Kira. I know you’re scared,” I said softly. “But I’m here in this house, no one’s going to try to kill you with me in the house.” I assured her.
She looked up at me, her eyes shining with tears. “Its a big house. I’ll be dead before you even notice.” She sobbed.
I offered to take her to my bedroom, thinking it would be a more comfortable place for her to rest. But as soon as I said it, she looked at me weird, like I was inviting her to do something more. A continuation of what we started this morning.
I could see the hesitation in her eyes, the uncertainty.
“Uh, okay,” she said hesitantly, her voice barely above a whisper,
“Come on, Kira.” I said, trying hard to hide my grin. “You need to get your mind out of the gutters. I just want
TO
help you.”
She looked at me sceptically, her eyes narrowing slightly. But eventually, she followed me to my room. As we walked in. I realized that I needed to get my mind out of the gutters too. I didn’t want to be thinking about her in that way, not when she was vulnerable and scared.
“Put on some of my clothes, will you?” I said, trying to sound casual. “You can’t sleep next to me in that…outfit.”
She looked down at her clothes, which were indeed revealing. “Oh, right,” she said, blushing. I could see the embarrassment in her face, the realization that she had been showing too much skin.
“You don’t want to give me the wrong idea now, do you? I teased and she glared at me.
“I don’t want anything to do with you Aston. She retorted sharply and I was glad to hear her sound alive and not like a zombie, all it took was getting on her nerve.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
“I’m not so sure. The kiss this morning suggests otherwise. You had your hands all over me. I want you” I mocked and she glared hard at me making me want to laugh my a**out.
I watched as she disappeared into my closet, wondering whether She was looking for a weapon to end my life. A moment later, she emerged with a pair of my sweatpants and a t-shirt, her eyes still flashing with annoyance.
“I’m going to change,” she said, her voice still laced with a hint of irritation.
“Do you want me to come with, I could help with a lot of things I said and watched her tuned from pale to tomato red in seconds. The colour returning to her cheeks like magic. I wondered how words like that still made her so timid. Sometimes, I couldn’t help but wonder if she was really so innocent or just faxing.
There was n
no way you could fake a blush like that though.
She went back into the closet, and I could hear the sound of clothes rustling as she changed. A minute later, she came out. looking adorable in my oversized clothes. The sweatpants were rolled up at the ankles, and the t-shirt was baggy on her, but she still managed to look beautiful
“Hetter?” I asked, trying to sanile. I wanted to see her smile, wanted to know that she was okay,
She scowled at me again, but this time, there was a hint of a smile in her eyes. “Yeah, better,” she said, her voice softening
I breathed a sigh of relief, glad that the tension between us was ensing. “Good,” I said, smiling back at her. “Now, let’s get some rest or not.” I smirked and she let out a scream that had me chuckling loudly. It took a shit load of convincing to get her back on the bed.
“What is your problem?” she growled at me and I was too busy laughing to answer.
“I’m starting to think about taking my chances with the thieves than do anything with you.” She said and that was the biggest he I had heard all day, bigger than the ones I told myself all day.
“Are you sure about that though? I promise to be gentle.” She looked at me like she was going to explode in anger.
“I told you before that I had no intention of screwing you Kira, unless you want it) I added in my head.
We climbed into bed, and I tried to ignore the fact that she was deeping next to me. Like I didn’t want to wrap my hands around her, like my jokes were just jokes and I didn’t want her naked body on mine.
