Desperately into you

CHAPTER 68

What the hell is he doing here!? All I thought was he was all asleep, who would think that he was here standing in the dim corner of our spacious kitchen and topless anyway?!

" What the----" I whispered as my eyes narrowed at him.

All we could hear was nothing aside from our breath and the faint sounds of my steps.

"Don't cuss, Karina," His deep lethal voice breaks the still atmosphere here in the kitchen.

"W-what---why a-are you still doing here?" I stammered as I squinted my eyes to fully see him.

And as if on cue, he began to stride closer till he was only a few steps away from me.

" I can't sleep." He answered shortly and rested his side on the counter.

I looked around, All I know was that he had some wine with my dad... But, maybe he's already in their room.

" Your dad was already asleep, Karina." He started when he saw me checking around.

I gulp.

So, we're alone here...

I nodded before I looked up to level my eye with his.

" Aren't you going to sleep?" I asked and good thing this time I didn't falter with my words.

Viel sighed as the corner of his lips rose.

He tightly close his eyes and when he opened them, they directly darted at me.

" I said, I can't sleep, Karina." He mumbled and advance a step closer.

" U-uhh, Alright." I nodded.

His deep short chuckle makes me stunned and in awe for a moment.

"You still have a few hours to continue your sleep, Karina." He says in the husk while looking at me.

Well, seeing him like this, the drowsiness that I'm feeling fades away like a f*****g bubble.

I slowly shook my head as I bit my lower lip.

His brows raised with my response.

"What?"

" I'm not sleepy anymore, Viel," I mumbled and reached for the glass of water once again.

I'm still thirsty but it's hard to gulp the liquid when he's here staring at my every move. And he's topless right now makes my throat runs dry even more.

" Uh-huh?..." He lazy responded as his eyes never leave mine.

I nodded slowly...

" what about you? Why you're here? The first room wasn't comfy enough?" I asked straightly.

His brows just furrowed at me as if it was no way near reason to why he was here.

I'm not sleepy anymore.

" Simon likes you..."

"How about your work, Viel?"

We both stopped when spilled at the same time.

I cleared my throat, I didn't expect that he'll say that...

.... Simon like me? Well, that's pretty much obvious even in the very first but what's with that anyway?

"Hmm...? What's wrong with that?" I casually ask him.

I put the glass of water as I crossed my arms on my chest. I focused my eyes straight on him.

His brows were even more knotted as he looked at me with his enchanted yet blank gaze.

" You like him?" He asks critically.

My jaw just drop because of his unexpected conclusion, what the hell?!

Is he saying this? His being like this just happens once in a Blue Moon and this is one of them.

" Of course,"

I answered immediately.

His stares became heavy as if I just dropped something awful to hear.

" He's a good friend and he's your cousin too,"

I stated.

His thick brows creased and the way he looks bore onto me... It was suspicious.

" Simon likes you..."

I frowned as I tried hard to hold my giggles. He repeated that as if was the only question he wants to drop over and over again.

He looks so f*****g adorable right now. What's wrong with this frosty?...

"My work is fine, Karina." He added and he sounds grumpy.

"Aren't you feeling cold?" I simply ask him, though I still enjoy the view it was too tempting and I'm afraid if I couldn't stop the silly thoughts of mine and I could do something stupid that I would be embarrassed for the rest of my life...

"No," he responded.

I pursed my lips when I noticed the bottle of wine on the counter, I don't if it was already empty or not.

"Hmm, can I have some?" I said with a cute smile.

I pursed my lips while looking at the glass of wine... Well, it's alcoholic.

Viel firmly shook his head and somewhere he grab his shirt and immediately put it on.

I pouted the sight to see was already fully covered.

"No,"

"Please?" I said with puppy eyes even though it always not working on it.

"It's a no, Karina. Go up now." He started with the finality of his voice.

"Just a little at least!" I was convinced stubbornly but Viel just shook his head like he won't give me even just a drop of it, Not to mention that this is our house but I couldn't even have a taste even if I want to!

He really has this commanding attitude and if he'll decide, that's it.

"Go back to your room, Karina." He commanded

" No," I shook my head.

I saw how his lips pursed but they parted after a while and licks it so that it turns even more luscious.

I remember the kiss we shared again...

"Karina..."

I was back into my senses when I heard Viel.

Oh, I didn't know I was out of reality for i don't know how long...

"Go back to your room,"

"Aren't you going to sleep?" I asked while still pouting...

" I will, I'll wait until you go first then, I'll go to the guest room." He stated in a deep serious time.

I sighed...

"Okay..." I simply said and was about to turny back at him whe I heard his deep sigh...

" Yeah, you better go back to your room Karina, 'cause I wouldn't be able to handle a seductive drunk lady like you, now.... Go back to your room" he says as he watched me going up the staircase.

I bit my lips as I hide my smile before I went back to my room...
