The Devil’s Bite

Chapter 28

His word confused her but it made her nod in she did not know reason.

Demire stood straight and smiled at her. “Alright, lady, you cannot find your key to open your apartment and I can’t just leave you here.” He held her hand and kiss the back of it. “Would you like to have dinner with me?”

“You mean here?” She roamed her eyes. She could not see anything outside but darkness. The air was cold too and they have nothing to use to warm them for this night. A pinch on her cheek cut her off from a deep thought regarding about the dinner on the road. She heard him laughed that surprised her. Her eyes glued to this man who laughed the first time in front of her.

“You, insane.” He’s chuckling. “I’m so tired, we’ve been working the whole day and I knew we both wanted a soft bed to sleep with, so I cannot eat with you outside. I have better offer, instead, would you like to have dinner inside my house and sleep there as my beautiful guest?” There was a smile on his lips.

She immediately nodded at him. There has no hesitation for a big nod. She trusted her more than herself. She was comfortable with him and she knew herself, she was safe enough when she was with him. She was not surprise anymore when he held her had. They headed the car and drove safely through his house. “Feel at home, my beautiful guest.” He winked at her and smiled when they entered the huge living room with the grand stair case and gigantic chandelier in the middle. He loosed his necktie and took off his coat. She threw herself on the soft sofa. Leaned her back on the backrest and closed her eyes. Call her everything but tonight, she had been more comfortable with him, even to his house. She knew herself that nothing bad will happen to her. Besides, she’s so tired and almost forgotten her roaring tummy for this day.

Demire went to his room and took a shower. After the shower, he didn’t bother to dry his hair. He dialed a delivery hotline for their dinner. After that, he headed the guest room where she stayed before to get the left clothes he bought for her last time. She didn’t take them but only the one she was wearing, good thing because at least there are left clothes for her to use tonight. He brought the pair of clothes down to the living room for her but he only saw sleeping beauty on the sofa. He smiled and walked towards her, he knelt on the floor to level her laying on the sofa, used her arm to be her pillow. “Sleepy head, you need to eat,” he murmured but cannot lay his hand on her shoulder to wake her up. He started to love what he seeing.

He stared her beautiful face. He was caught by her long eye lashes and could not help himself not to touch it. “I can’t believe I can find a goddess like you, how could you possess this kind of beautiful face,” it’s not sounds like a question but a fact statement. His eyes lowered down her lips, and he gulped to see how kissable those were. He sighed and smiled. He respected her.

Demire does not want to end her sleep but he knew she is hungry and need to eat dinner. Besides, their dinner is the reason why she cried tonight. She wanted to treat her dinner, and the thought she could not do it made her cry. What a cute and soft lady. He stayed they there staring at her for a minute until he decided to wake her up because she has to eat dinner. “Sofia, wake up. You need to eat dinner.” He shook her shoulder that made awaken her. She opened her eyes and immediately sat on the sofa.

“Oh my, God! I fell asleep!” She sighed. “I’m sorry, I’m so sleepy and my back want something soft to lean with. I promise to cook for you tomorr—” She was cut off when his index finger touched her lips to cut her off.

“Enough, I won’t allow you to cook tonight, anyway.” He patted her head and messed her hair. The doorbell rang apparently. He stood up tucked his hands on the front pocket of his black short. “I ordered our food, let’s eat, my beautiful guest.”

She smiled and nodded. Demire received the delivery and they eat together on the living room. They sat on the fur floor mat and place their food on the center table. That was the best dinner she ever had with him. They talked like they are closed before. “Yes, I really love spicy. How about you?” Sofia asked him back. They are tossing question to get to know each other.

“Sometimes, yes.” He smiled and bit the chicken leg he was holding. He ended the tossing question, he wanted to know her more but he does not want her to know anything more about him. He still has to hide about him even how he’d been decided to know her more.

She could not find any question to ask him next, she’d focused on her dinner. “Yum, thank you, Demire.” She stopped eating and wiped her lips with a tissue. She faced him and sighed when she remembered something. “I should be the one to treat you dinner tonight, to thank you but yet you did it for me. I’m sorry.”

He wagged his head. “Forget about it, you will can always pay me, but not sure if I will accept it.”

“You’re completely different.” She chuckled.
