Damon hugged Anna for over five minutes.
“ I hope you aren't sleeping?” Anna asked, trying to push him again.
“ I can't sleep while standing.” He replied and raised his head to look at her.
She scowled. He chuckled.
“ You behave like a child.” He said and pinched her nose.
Anna tilted her head back and tried to get down from the shelf.
Damon didn't even budge. He placed his hands on both sides of the shelf, limiting her movement.
He leaned in slowly till their noses touched.
“ You're playing hard to get.” He whispered.
“ It's getting on my nerves.”
Anna smirked.
“ There's no need to play hard to get. You can't force feelings.”
Damon tilted his head to the side. Anna's breath hitched.
“ No one wants to be tortured or tempted. But you've left me no choice.” He said and bit her nose.
Anna couldn't breathe. Her heart pounded against its ribcage threatening to run away.
She pushed him.
“ You can't be doing two at a time. Samoyed is waiting for you.” She said and jumped down from the shelf.
As she headed towards the door, she paused, then turned back sharply.
Damon raised a brow.
“ What—”
He paused as she raised her middle finger and ran away.
A light chuckle escaped his lips.
“ Either way…. It's you for life.”
“ Samoyed? How does she—”
“ Who is Samoyed?” Damon thought.
Anna ran to her room and shut the door immediately.
“ Oh my God….what the fuck.”
She sat on her bed, eyes wide, hands gripping her chest.
“ That fool.” She pointed her finger to the sky.
“ I pray he gets nightmares…or better still, sleep paralysis.”
Her heart kept on beating hysterically.
“ Will you shut up?” She yelled at her heart.
A realization hit her
“ I didn't get to ask him for the money.” She ran her hand through her hair in frustration.
“ Playing hard to get? Tsk. Does he think he's that beautiful or what?”
“ Next time, I will spoon out his eyes.”
“ Ahhh. He has gone too far with this. I mean ….we almost kissed.”
Anna gripped her head with her both hands. .
“ This young man is driving me crazyyyy.” She yelled.
