Chapter 59: Don’t Get Too Excited

After all was said and done, Tyrone had no choice but to occupy the room next to Raine. He wanted to stay near her since he was still her bodyguard, so he had to make sure that she was safe regardless of her assassination plans.

It was dinner time when everyone gathered at the function hall. The beach resort had prepared a private catering service exclusively for the Yang Globals employees that were part of the retreat. As such, Tyrone couldn't enter the function hall. However, some employees recognized him outside as he passed by, resulting in them inviting him inside the function hall anyway.

"Aren't you Doctor Yao's secretary?" asked the others when Tyrone entered inside with some of the other employees.

Tyrone nodded with a bashful smile. He wasn't a regular hospital employee yet, so he wasn't entitled to join this kind of retreat like the other employees.

"I'm here for a vacation with my friends," Tyrone said as his eyes darted to Raine's table. She was at Xander and Rui's table. There were other people at the table as well, obviously those who were close to Xander. 

Raine almost spat the wine she just drank when she saw Tyrone at another table not far from her. Even so, she ignored him and continued with what she was doing, getting closer to Xander. Still,it looked like her bodyguard was very reliable in following her around, and she was actually pleased to see his stoic face looking at her like that.

Quietly watching from afar, Tyrone kept his guard up in his own table. The others had left early to rest in their own rooms, but Raine had walked towards the restaurant's bar to drink more so Tyrone followed her. Seeing the opportunity, he sat on the chair near her.

"It will rain soon," Raine commented as she drank her glass of wine.

"Yeah, and it'll be cold," Tyrone unconsciously commented, making Raine turn to him.

"Are you suggesting that I'll need your warmth?"

Tyrone met her playful stare as his face reddened. "No, that's not what I meant," he murmured, his cheeks still flushed.

"It'll be nice to get drunk in this kind of weather… I guess I'll just go to my room and order my drinks from there so I won't make a fuss in case I get drunk." Raine mused as she stood up. She then stopped by Tyrone and added, "Goodnight, darling. If you want to come over, maybe you can just sneak in through my balcony. I'll leave it open for you." 

Tyrone could only watch Raine's retreating back, sighing all the way as he shook his head. Having nothing better to do, he ordered some hard drinks and stayed at the bar. Before he knew it, he had drank too much that he instantly felt sleepy as soon as he arrived at his room. His mind wondered if Raine was really drinking inside her place.

He ended up staying up all night in his room. For some reason, he felt uneasy. Soon enough, he heard the roar of thunder as the rain began to pour. Lightning flashed overhead, and Tyrone immediately went out of his room and pressed the doorbell to Raine's room. However, the latter didn't open the door.

'Is she sleeping?' Tyrone frowned. 

Having no other choice, he went back inside his room and ended up crossing over to Raine's balcony.

'What are you doing, Tyrone?' he inwardly scolded himself. He was all wet because of the rain.

"Look at you," Raine murmured in her drunken voice. Tyrone immediately noticed all the empty bottles of vodka on the floor as she sat on the floor with her back on the side of her bed.

"You're wet! Go get a robe from there and come here," Raine slurred out. "How come you didn't use the doorbell, huh?"

"I did, but you're not opening the door…"

"Ah. The thunder's so loud so I probably didn't hear it. Damn this weather. Too rough and noisy," Raine grunted while looking at the glass door Tyrone just closed a while ago.

"I'll be sleeping here with you. Let me just get some clothes to change into back in my room," Tyrone said before he left.

Raine let out a long sigh. This time, she felt so drunk that she just ended up crawling back into her bed. Tyrone soon joined her on the bed and whispered, "What's with you drinking a lot lately?"

Raine snuggled onto him as she chuckled, "Hey, it's just last night and tonight."

"Was that nightmare so bad?" Tyrone asked. He had assumed that Raine was still acting like this because of that one bad dream.

In reality, Raine was drinking because she had a lot going inside her head. Sure, the nightmare was one of them, then there was Aire and how she was conflicted in regards to doing the right thing and following an order regarding killing a human. It wasn't only Yun that wanted Xander dead. But she knew that her father would do the same thing if he was awake.

"It wasn't that bad, darling… But it's still a frightening dream," Raine answered. 

She tilted her head to meet Tyrone's gaze. Was she just hallucinating the concern that she was seeing in his beautiful eyes?

"You do know that the two of us might not have a happy ending if we continue getting emotionally close with each other, right?" Raine humorlessly teased. "Falling in love with me could be your doom, so don't ever think about it." 

In response, Tyrone only pulled her closer into his arms and whispered, "Don't get too excited just because I'm comforting you."

Raine chuckled and buried her face on the crook of Tyrone's neck as she whispered, "Ah, this feels good… I love this warmth and comfort that you're extending to me. Don't worry. I'll make it up to you soon big time, so just continue in providing me with comfort like this."

Tyrone didn't comment. He still had a stoic expression that he used back when he patted Raine's shoulder. Deep inside, however, he was feeling conflicting emotions war against each other. He had always had this strange desire to provide Raine the comfort that she needed for the longest time, but it just wasn't possible at the time.

He was a mutant, and Raine was a hunter, a slayer of his kind.. The two of them being together was an ill-fated relationship.
