Bailey's pov
His voice sent shivers down my spine and I huffed, turning to him. I couldn't really see him properly in this dark but his mere presence made the room feel incredibly small.
The tension grew so thick too.
I worried my lips between my teeth and crossed my arms under my breasts.
"What are you doing here Kaleb? And how did you even find me?"?
I can feel his eyes on me, eyeing me with a dangerous heat I could feel across the space between us.
" I came to check up on my runaway princess. You left in a hurry," his tone is soft, far from how it had been when I told him no in the schools parking lot.
I swallowed, my breathing now a bit shaky.
"Well, you've checked. Now, I'd like to be alone," I replied, my voice colder than I intended.
I thought my harsh words would make him flinch away and get out, but instead Kaleb moves to the left and puts on the lights.
I wince, adjusting my eyesight to the intrusion of the light.
He's standing in the room, leaning against the wall, a bottle of alcohol in his hand and something small and green in the other.
His gaze is fixated on me, like he's eyeing his prey.
"As much as the dark reminds me of that hot night, I would much rather see everything for what I have planned tonight."
I swallowed, licking a trail across my lips. What did he mean? What is he planning to do? Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"The captain missing at his own celebration party? I don't think it's a good idea to stay here with me." I was trying to remove the conversation from where he wanted it to go.
He needed to go so I can figure this out. My feelings and ugh I just don't even know anymore. This is exactly why I needed to stay away from him. See how his mere presence is messing up my head?
He pushed off the wall and stalks to towards me like a predator.
A shiver runs down my spine at the intensity of his stare.
I took a step back when he's eating up the distance between us and the back of my leg hit the bed frame.
Shit. There was nowhere to go.
"Get on the bed flower," His voice dropped in a low husky tone that made me bite the bottom of my lip hard.
My eyes widen. "What? Hell no."
He tilted his head to the side, gazing at me with that gleam of heat I was now accustomed to. " You run up here because you thought I'd do body shots on those girls."
I gulped, looking away as I felt my face flush. He read me like an open book and that's embarrassing.
" I don't care what you do Kaleb," I lied through my teeth and keeping my gaze away from his.
" So you wouldn't care if I go back down there and lick all over Juliet's stomach?"
His words made me snap my gaze back to his and I glared. It seems that's what he wanted me to do because he smirked in satisfaction.
I ground my teeth.
"Looks like you do care flower."
I fisted my hands, holding my glare steady on his handsome face. " I would like to be alone Kaleb. Get out and do whatever you want."
He raised a brow, a tiny flash of a smirk at the corner of his mouth showcasing. " You want me out? Then do as I say. Be a good girl and get on that bed. Because the only thing I want to do is you."
