MARRIED BY ACCIDENT

Chapter 9

Katherine

I couldn't stand the heat I was feeling in my body anymore. I got up and approached Axel.

"I feel hot, Axel." I pulled him and kissed his neck.

"Calm down, Katherine. I'm sure my mom drugged the milk she gave us," he said to me. He tried to push me away from him but I didn't want to move away. I felt like he was the only one who could ease the heat I was feeling now.

"I want you, Axel. Don't push me away, please," I pleaded with him. I pushed him down onto the bed along with my body.

"Control yourself, Katherine. You will surely regret this when you are in your right mind." I know that Axel and I feel the same way but he has stronger self-control than I do. He breathes heavily as if he is struggling, so I know he is exerting intense self-restraint.

Instead of following what Axel said, I kissed his neck again while my hands unbuttoned his pajama top. I heard him moan loudly, followed by a soft curse when I slightly bit and sucked on his neck. The heat I was feeling only intensified when I heard his moan. It was like beautiful music to my ears.

My hand quickly slipped inside his clothes and freely caressed his hard chest. Axel moaned again. It seemed he no longer had the strength to stop what I was doing. My lips trailed from his neck down to his chest. His breathing only grew heavier. His breath and moans make me crazy.

Suddenly, Axel flipped over. In an instant, he was already on top of me. "Don't regret tomorrow, Katherine," he said in a hoarse voice before claiming my lips.

Axel is kissing me hungrily and I also respond with hunger. Maybe it's because of the drug effect that we're like hungry animals.

I moaned loudly when his hot and moist kisses went down to my neck. I felt like I was going crazy from the intense sensation I was feeling. I don't want to think that this is just the effect of the drug Axel's mother mixed into the milk that's why I'm feeling this way.

Axel's hand caressed my legs and slowly went up inside my nightie. But before his hand could reach its destination, I suddenly opened my eyes and pulled his hand away. I shook my head vigorously. No. This is wrong. Neither of us is in our right mind. We can't control our bodies.

Although I like what we're doing and I don't feel any resistance even if something happens between me and Axel, but not in this way. Not because we're both under the influence of drugs.

While Axel was busy kissing my neck, I reached for the small drawer beside my bed and opened it. This is where I keep my needles when I'm about to sleep. I took one needle and checked its color. My needles have different colors so I can tell what each one is for. When I saw that the needle I got was for sleeping, I immediately stuck it into Axel's neck. In almost two seconds, Axel stopped moving and his head fell asleep on top of my chest.

I quickly got up from the bed and ran to the bathroom. I soaked myself under the shower to get rid of the heat I was feeling. I stayed in the shower for almost an hour before I felt my body temperature drop. The effects of the drugs had worn off.

My mother-in-law didn’t want to harm us so she just put a small amount of drugs into the milk. Because if she had mixed a large amount of the drug into the milk, its effects would definitely not disappear quickly even if I soaked in water for several hours. Maybe she really wants to have a grandchild, that’s why she did that reckless thing.

After my body returned to normal, I came out of the bathroom. I fixed Axel on the bed as he lay there. I stared at his sleeping face. He is really handsome. I wouldn’t regret it if I gave my virginity to him. But I want us both to be awake and unaffected by any drug.

My hand rose and caressed his cheek. My finger traces his noseline down to his soft lips. I couldn't help but smile as I remembered how sweet and soft his lips were. He was my first kiss. Not bad. I took a deep breath before lying down beside him and forcing myself to sleep.

When I woke up the next day, Axel was no longer beside me. I got out of bed and immediately took a shower before leaving the room. I found him making a sandwich for breakfast.

"Good morning," Axel greeted me, and I could feel his awkwardness. "Ahm, my parents, they already left."

"Um," I replied softly. I didn't know what to say to him about what happened last night. I just sat down in the chair and picked up the milk he had prepared. Suddenly, the heated scene between us flashed in my mind as I stared at the glass of milk. I put the glass down on the table as if I had been burned when I touched it.

"About what happened last night—" Axel and I spoke at the same time but stopped simultaneously and awkwardly looked at each other.

"I would like to apologize on behalf of my Mom. She didn't mean to do it. She just wants to—"

"I know. You don't have to apologize," I cut him off. "Nothing happened between us last night so let's just forget about it."

He let out a sigh as if he was frustrated. "By the way, what happened last night? I suddenly fell asleep. I can't remember why I fell asleep."

I shrugged my shoulders. "I don't know. You just fell asleep suddenly."

Axel frowned and seemed unconvinced by what I said. "I think it's weird. I'm in the middle of..." He paused for a moment, unsure whether to continue or not. "I mean, I'm a normal and strong man. I wouldn't sleep in that kind of situation especially if I was drugged."

"Don't think about it anymore. Just think of it as a blessing in disguise that you fell asleep," I simply told him. I couldn't exactly tell him that he fell asleep because I injected him with a needle containing a sedative.

He took a deep sigh once again and did not bring up what happened last night. We ate breakfast in silence, and afterwards, he went into his room. Starting tonight, I will sleep in my own room. After half an hour, he came out again, already showered.

"I'm going to work now," he said goodbye to me.

I nodded at him and stared at his neck. The hickeys on his neck were obvious. His coworkers would surely tease him if they saw what was on his neck. But I didn't mention it to him because I didn't want to talk again about what happened last night. Even now, I still feel embarrassed whenever I remember it was me begging him not to push me away while I was kissing him.

"I’ll be leaving later. I might come home late tonight."

Axel nodded at me before walking toward the door. But before he could open it, he suddenly came back in front of me.

"If you’re going out of the house later, don’t forget to cover what’s on your neck," Axel said before quickly leaving my sight.

Frowning, I went into the bathroom to check what was on my neck. My face suddenly turned red when I saw that not only did Axel have hickeys on his neck, but I did too. So embarrassing.
