Original Heirs

CHAPTER 5

Author's Pov:-

Who was he? Hope whispered, while touching her lips with her fingertips, the warmth of his lips was still on her lips and tingling sensations were overwhelming her. His smell and those glowing eyes and the way his body felt beneath her hand were still making her body shudder, she drew a long breath in while closing her eyes and the way he grabbed her and kissed hungrily flashed in front of her eyes.

“I shouldn’t have come to this party,” she whispered while opening her eyes,  with a shaken body and mind she slowly began walking towards the swimming pool. She ignored all the people playing and making out at the corners, all she could think was his smell and the feel she had while he kissed her. It was magical, she was never kissed by someone and she never knew that kissing someone could be this beautiful. As she walked into the room full of drunk people and loud music playing in the background, her eyes began searching for only She didn’t know why her eyes are roaming around and why she’s looking around like searching someone even though she doesn't know who that person is.

How will I find him without knowing anything about him, she thought. she walked towards the kitchen and disappointment washed over her when she realised that the person she was searching was not in there,

Who is he? Can I ever find him? she asked herself sadly,

“Hope!” Called Axel from behind her, she turned around and saw him walking to her,

“Hey!” she replied,

He looked at her face and clearly understood that something is bothering her, “Are you alright?” he asked,

“Yes, I want to go home Axel,” she said with sadness in her eyes.

Axel understood her and quickly nodded his head, “Come,” he said, walking towards the main door, she quietly followed him outside. He opened the door of his car for Hope and she got inside. As she put on the seat belt, Axel got inside the car and closed the door, while putting on the seat belt he glanced at Hope and noticed her being calm.

Hope could feel his eyes on her but she chose to ignore as her eyes were searching for the person she wanted to see. Axel started the engine and drove off from there. In the way back home, Axel glanced at hope and saw her looking outside the window, “Hope!” he called,

Hope turned to him, “yes!” she replied,

“What happened?” he asked without looking at her and keeping his eyes on the road.

His question has made her go back to the kiss, she lowered her eyes, “I want to tell you something, Axel,” she said,

He nodded at her, she took a deep breath and began telling him how he kissed some unknown person, hearing her, Axel took a deep breath and tried to keep his eyes on the road. He noticed the sadness in her voice while she said this and made him understand she’s unhappy, but he couldn’t understand why?

“I don’t know who he was and why he kissed me?” she said, remembering the kiss.

“But I want to find him, I want to know who he was and I don’t know why my heart wants me to find him… I don’t know what I will say if I find him…” she says,

“I think…I’m just curious!” she said while turning her head and looking at Axel,

Axel just sighed, “If you want to know that guy then we will find him,” he replied,

His reply made her smile and excitement shoot her body. As they reached her home, Axel parked his car in the parking lot and walked with her to the doorsteps. As she opened the door, she stepped inside and turned back,

“Good night!” she said smiling at him.

“Good night!” he replied and turned around, she closed the door and locked it behind and began tip toying to her bedroom.

As she reached her bedroom, she slowly opened the door without making her parents wake up because of the sound, she stepped in and closed it quietly. She sighed and walked straight to the bathroom. While She freshens up and changes her clothes into an oversized t-shirt and shorts, climbing on the bed she lays down on the soft mattress. Whatever happened today began flashing in her mind, from the naked man in the forest to the kiss.

Today’s events were very exciting for her, she never thought her first days would be this exciting. As she was thinking about the man in the forest, she had a sudden urge to draw him, she tried to resist it by tossing and turning on the bed, trying to sleep but it was so strong that she had to get up. She pushed her hair back and drew her lower lip in, biting it while looking at the window.

She got up from the bed and walked to the easel, while glancing at it she picked up the pencil which was placed at the table near it. She reached on to the switchboard and switched on the light and began drawing the outline of the man in the woods. From the angle she saw him, she could only see his back and his hair. 

As she began drawing him, her mind took her back to the time she saw him, his broad shoulder and his slim waist, she could not forget the way the water drops fell from his hair travelling down to his waist. His long and strong legs and his muscular hands, the nerves popping out of him didn’t go unnoticeable. Remembering it made her throat go dry, she had never seen someone so beautiful ever. 

She glanced at the outline and smiled, it was exact, nothing went here and there, she kept the pencil aside and switched off the lights while walking to the bed and climbing on it. She pulled the covers over her, “I wish I could see him again,” she whispered while closing her eyes slipping into a deep slumber.
