Chapter 31
Chapter 31
I was talking to my mom who was telling me about their trip. The door closed and I turned to see Kel
entering the house. He looked bad, bad would not even describe how he looked. I had a suspicion of
what happened.
"So you went over to his place to beat him up?" I asked confirming my thoughts.
I don't get why he would do that, I don't know if he was starting to care or he was feeling guilty.
"Why did you do it?" I asked sitting him down.
"You know why," he replied shrugging
"I don't," I said playing dumb.
"He did things to you, I can't let him get away with that and the fact that I believed him also thinking he
was my best friend so yes we fought because of you. Nobody touches my woman and gets away with
it. And I haven't even touched you so you get my frustration." he jokingly said but I know he meant it.
He called me his woman and he fought his best friend because of what he tried doing to me, he could
very much have just talked to him or threatened him but he did this and if he looked like this what of
Carlos? I don't get why he'd do that? I didn't know what to think of him. He was confusing me lately,
slowly breaking down the walls I had built up.
"Are you mad at me? " he slowly asked watching me. Mad? No. Proud, maybe.
"No. It's just... " What was I gonna say? Why would you do that for me? I don't get it.
"Hey, are you alright?" he asked pulling me to sit on his lap.
"You're confusing me. Why would you do that? You don't even like me, why would you even get beaten
up to this extent."
Kel just chuckled and put his hands around me. "I like you Shayan, I'd get beaten up to any extent or
beat up anyone for you. You're my woman, no one gets to mess with you," he said softly tucking a
strand of hair behind my ear. He likes doing that a lot and looking at me intently like that wasn't helping.
My inside was churning. He was awakening burning desires with the speed of lightning.
What do I say to that? Does he really like me? Should I thank him?
"You didn't have to do anything," I said instead.
"I wouldn't have been okay with myself if I didn't do anything," he confessed and the way he said it, I
looked at him like he wasn't the same man I know. Who knows if Carlos did something to him.
"So it's not obvious that I like you?" he asked.
"Not at all," I replied, I never would have guessed. Well... He was changing these past few weeks
though.
"I'd correct that," he said leaning in. Was he going to kiss me? Do I want him to?
Kel threw his head back and laughed, why's he laughing now? I felt a little bit hurt.
"You should see your face West, you look between confused and horrified."
Yeah, he still hasn't said my name. I thought he was going to kiss me but he laughed. I didn't know
whether to be mad or grateful for it.
"Don't worry, it won't be far from now. You look like you don't want me kissing you yet." I could detect
seriousness admits the playfulness. So he probably thought I didn't want him kissing me and laughed
instead to make it less awkward for him, it was kind of funny.
"Do you have a first kit anywhere?" I asked not knowing what to say. At least I asked something
reasonable.
"In my room," he replied staring at me
"Do you think you can manage walking upstairs so I can take a look at it or you'd prefer the hospital? " I
asked.
"No. You're just fine," he answered and I nodded.
I walked him to his room and it was the official time I'd be in his room just the both of us. I sat him on
the bed and all the time he was watching me.
"Where's your kit?" I asked. "Bathroom, first drawer by the left," he replied
I went into the bathroom and I just stood in awe. It was amazing he had a standard shower and
bathtub. The bathroom was spacious. His scent filled the room. The masculine scent of his soap and
shampoo filled my nostrils. I would gladly sleep in his bathtub with his scent everywhere.
"Did you see it?" he asked from the room.
See what? Oh, I'm supposed to look for the first aid kit.
"I haven't seen it yet," I answered checking cupboards.
"Do you want me to come help?" he asked and I said yes, for some reason I wanted him here.
He came to the bathroom and walked to where I stood, standing behind me. He was too close.
"It's at the top here," he spoke getting it.
"Would that be all?" he asked going down to my neck nibbling on it.
"Hmm." it was meant to be a reply but it came out more as a moan.
He moved my hair aside and continued. He pressed hot, moist kisses on my neck. He kissed the
tender spot between my neck and shoulder blade and I let out a low moan. Desire started burning
within me. He went out to my earlobe and grazed it lightly with his teeth. I couldn't explain the sensation
he was creating in me. Gosh, it has been so long, I needed this.
"I want to do a lot of things to you West ." he sounded so sexy it scared me.
"I should get you cleaned up," I said stepping away from him.
I needed to keep my emotions at bay, he could still play me then end things with me in less than five
months and I don't want to be an emotional wreck when this would be over.
"You can't keep denying the attraction." he started. "It won't change anything." that was true but I could
avoid it not to get hurt.
"I don't want to talk about this," I said and he turned me to face him.
"Why? What are you scared of?"
"You. I'm scared of falling for you. I don't want to be another plaything to you." I softly said.
"Gosh, you've never been a plaything to me, you're not a plaything to me. You're more than that
Shayan, a lot more." Did it just get hot in this place or what?
He sounded so sincere I wanted to believe him, his eyes were pleading me to. What could I possibly
say to that? We were staring at each other now, me trying to read his expression. I know a part of me
believes him and craves him but I'm torn between following my heart or head. And he said my nameProperty of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
too, hearing him say that was just wow. I've always preferred him saying my name to any pet name, it
just sounds sexier and I was happy that he called me by my name. I wanted to believe him but I don't
want a broken heart. How many years has it been since he said my name? How many years has it
been since he broke my heart?
"I want you Shayan, all of you that you're willing to offer."
"Kel..." I couldn't even complete my sentence because the next thing that happened was his mouth
over mine clinging to it. His soft familiar lips pressed against mine and I felt fireworks erupt in the pit of
my stomach, every desire I had once buried awakening.
His lips moved slowly with mine with stressed slowness. It seemed as if it was taking immense self-
control for him to keep the kiss slow.
The slow tenderness of the kiss lasted for less than a minute until we both lost control. His tongue
roughly mashed with mine and I let out a soft moan unwillingly as I wrapped my arms around his neck
pulling him closer. His free hand that wasn't cupping my cheeks moved to my waist. I matched each
thrust of his tongue with mine the taste of him overwhelming me.
I take my hands to his hair, my fingers getting lost in them and he let out a small growl. Oh how much
I've missed this. After Kel, I couldn't bring myself to be with another man in any way. It was just only
him and he still has power over my body, soul and heart. His hands went down to my ass rubbing them
and I let out a tiny moan. I wanted to explore his body and started touching his abs. It scared me how
much I wanted him. There was so much passion into the kiss and if it wasn't for the need to breathe we
could do this all day.
"I haven't kissed anyone like that in years. It's only you Shayan, the only woman I want," he said
twirling my hair looking at me with so much adoration.
"I haven't either. It has just been you all my life." I admitted and he gave me a wide grin.
"I like that and I also like kissing you," he admitted. "I like you a lot Shayan."
Oh boy, what do I do? Do I like him? I think I do.
"You don't have to tell me you like me. I know I'm not on your list of good people and I'd work for it. I
just want a chance with you." he pleaded.
"I guess I could give you a chance." I slowly said and he grinned. "But just one, if anything happens it's
over." I threatened.
"I wouldn't let anything happen. Thank you," he said giving me a quick kiss on the lips.
I hope I did the right thing. "Now let's get you cleaned up, you're a mess."
"You didn't think that when kissing me," he smirked and I rolled my eyes, hopefully, this was the start of
something new.
