Chapter 58: So Hot

"I want you to hold me like you used to, please." She curdled in closer to him and sniffed, making Adrik realize that she was crying.

His eyes flickered in confusion and he glanced at her. "Please, just hold me! I want to sleep in your arms, please." Leia poured out everything she wanted to say without even knowing it. At this moment, she wasn't even listening to herself, but the only thing she was clear of was that she wanted him to hold her. She needed his comfort. She felt completely alone and empty.

She sniffed and sobbed silently. Her eyes flickered when she felt no reaction from Adrik, and she proceeded to move closer to him, but her hand accidentally nudged on Adrik's injury and his face grimaced a bit. She drew back immediately and glanced up at him. "I am so sorry. I didn't mean to." She apologized and immediately turned around to avoid his expressionless gaze.

Her low whimpers flew into Adrik's ear, and his stern face instantly became tender. He let out a soft sigh and reached out his hand to touch her. He slowly wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him, and Leia's eyes dilated as she didn't expect that.

Adrik rolled her around to face him, and he intently stared at her. He used his thumb to wipe off the tears on her face and brushed her hair that fell over her face with his hand. A smile crept on Leia's lips and she sniffed as her eyes, which held no downcast emotion anymore, gazed at him.

He pulled her closer and encircled his arms around her. He placed his chin on her head and took a deep breath.

Leia relaxed in his warm embrace and placed her head on his chest. She tightly wrapped her arms around his bare upper body and threw her legs over him. Adrik's long lashes flickered, and a half-smile slowly formed on his lips. 

Seeing her like this hurts him so much, but he just wants to make her understand how big of a mistake she made that day. He wanted to let her know how much she hurt him, and most of all, he wanted her to realize that she cared for him very much.

He doesn't mind being cold to her even though it pains him a lot to behave that way towards her, but it's at least working on her.

Adrik smiled and scented her hair. He kissed her head and shut his eyes as sleep overwhelmed him.

The next day arrived in the blink of an eye, and Leia woke up with a throbbing headache. She sat up and stretched her stiff body.

Her eyes glanced beside her for Adrik, and her brow creased when she didn't see him. She proceeded to climb down from the bed, but the sound of running water that came from the bathroom made her turn her head.

A sudden lewd image appeared in her head and butterflies fluttered in her stomach. She furiously shook her head the instant she viewed such an image and immediately grabbed the glass of water on the mini table near their bed. She gulped a mouthful and dropped the cup. What the fuck is going on with her? Why has she suddenly been having such thoughts about Adrik these days? A deep breath escaped her lips, and she abruptly turned her head when she heard the door of the bathroom open.

Adrik, who was draped in a towel from his waist down, had another small white towel over his head as he was using it to dry his wet hair.

Leia's body stilled and she gazed at his upper bare body, which had droplets of water falling off. She swallowed hard and her eyes trailed up from his abs to his chest, where they stopped on the wolf tattoos that made him look so sexy. Forget the scars, he's sexy as hell!! No man had ever attracted her this way, but Adrik, who has hideous scars on his face, attracted her this much.

"You're so hot." The minute the word unknowingly left her mouth, she quickly raised her hand and covered her lips. Her eyes awkwardly darted around, and she glanced at Adrik only to see him staring at her with a stunned look on his face.

She chuckled awkwardly and began to fan herself with her hand. "Have I talked about how hot it is today?" She sneaked a peek at him and half smiled at him.

Adrik raised his brow at her and walked into the room that had all their clothes with a bewildered expression on his face.

A deep breath of relief escaped Leia's mouth the moment he shut the door and she slapped her lips. Her cheeks reddened in embarrassment and she couldn't help but cover her face with her two hands. What is wrong with her? She was not this type of girl, so she can't understand why she's acting this strange around Adrik. Why is she suddenly feeling so attracted to him?

She shook her head and climbed down from the bed. She walked into the bathroom and filled the bathtub, which was so wide it could fit three people. Then she slipped out of her clothing and slid into the warm water that smelled of rain in a flowery garden.

She relaxed her head on the edge of the tub and shut her eyes.

Adrik, who was inside the room dressed up, walked out, shutting the door behind him. Today, he was dressed in a fine, pristine white suit with a white tie and white shoes. His eyes, which looked as though they had mascara drawn on them, narrowed as he examined himself in the side mirror. His slim, bloody red lips curled up and he placed the white mask onto his face.

A deep breath exited his lips as he glanced at his long hair. Hopefully, he will be able to cut it one day.. He adjusted his suit and took his seat on the sofa, patiently waiting for Leia to come out of the bathroom.
